1	The Definitive Collection (2007) more music like this by Bo Diddley Universal's 2007 set The Definitive Collection is a retitled reissue of the previously released 1997 comp His Best. No matter the title, this is an excellent 20-track roundup of Bo basics. To be sure, not everything great that he did is here by any means -- a bunch of great singles are missing, such as the crushing boogie of "Diddly Wah Diddy," ... see all copies from $10.96! new only from $10.96!
2	Snoopy Vs. the Red Baron/Snoopy & His Friends (2001) more music like this by The Royal Guardsmen This two-fer from Collectables features a pair of out-of-print Royal Guardsmen LPs: Snoopy Vs. the Red Baron and Snoopy & His Friends. Originally issued in 1966 and 1967, respectively, each of the 24 tracks has a continuity dominated by the bubblegum sound and popular radio hits of the time. Highlights Include "Snoopy Vs. the Red Baron," "Snoopy's ... see all copies from $11.26! new only from $11.26!
3	Honkin' on Bobo (2004) more music like this by Aerosmith Aerosmith prove that a band can be inspired by the blues and play the blues without ever feeling like a blues band. Then again, the nature of the blues is that every musician who plays it stamps his or her own identity on a set of familiar chord changes and songs. While it might not feel like the blues, Aerosmith do indeed stamp their identity ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $6.97!
4	The Decca Stereo Anthology (2002) more music like this by The Zombies There were a bunch of Zombies reissues in the 1990s and early 2000s, including a Zombies box set, Zombie Heaven, that seemed to gather just about everything conceivable recorded by the group. So how exactly does this two-CD, 48-song compilation of their 1964-1966 Decca sessions fit into the pecking order? Well, if you have the box set, it's for ... see all copies from $19.39! new only from $19.39!
5	Zombie Heaven (1997) more music like this by The Zombies Sometimes boxed sets are just handy to have around, just to get all of the tracks that count (or all of a group's recordings) together in one place. Other times, however, they're a scintillating musical and educational experience even for longtime fans, and that's the case with Zombie Heaven. The group is mostly known here for their three major ... see all copies from $72.21! new only from $72.21!

7	Honkin' on Bobo [Limited Edition] (2004) more music like this by Aerosmith Aerosmith prove that a band can be inspired by the blues and play the blues without ever feeling like a blues band. Then again, the nature of the blues is that every musician who plays it stamps his or her own identity on a set of familiar chord changes and songs. While it might not feel like the blues, Aerosmith do indeed stamp their identity ... see all copies from $8.10! new only from $11.99!
8	The Texas Tornado (1992) more music like this by Johnny Winter see all copies from $3.38!
9	Chartbusters USA, Vol. 2 (2002) more music like this by Various Artists Like volume one, this is a high-grade assortment of hits, all but one by American artists, from the five years or so following the Beatles' invasion of the United States (though a couple of the tracks are from 1963). If there's one thing that might keep some listeners from lavishing unrestrained praise on this collection, it's that there's no real ... see all copies from $12.58! new only from $12.58!
10	Hey Bo Diddley: A Tribute! (2002) more music like this by Various Artists A nice idea -- although a better, more eclectic tribute can be found on Rhino's Bo Diddley Beats compilation, released a decade earlier. Hey Bo Diddley: A Tribute! follows in the celebrated '90s tradition of corralling established blues and rock talents and letting them pay homage to their heroes in the studio, often with the help of a common ... see all copies from $13.99! new only from $13.99!

13 view cover	The Birth of the Blues [Soho] (2002) more music like this by Various Artists This three-disc set doesn't so much chronicle the birth of the blues, as it does its adolescence, marking the point when the blues went urban and electric. Among the highlights here are Mississippi Fred McDowell's "61 Highway," Magic Slim's stately and poignant "Cummins Prison Farm," and Lightnin' Hopkins' "War Is Starting Again." Steve Leggett, ... see all copies from $7.71! new only from $7.71!
14 view cover	Begin Here [Begin Here Plus] (1999) more music like this by The Zombies Short of buying Big Beat's four-CD Zombie Heaven box, this disc and Repertoire's companion expanded reissue of Odessey & Oracle are probably the simplest and handiest way to plunge into the Zombies' history, or at least the best of it. Using the original 14 songs off their debut album -- one of the strongest British Invasion debuts -- as a jumping ... see all copies from $17.09! new only from $17.09!
15 view cover	Winter Essentials 1960-1967 (2003) more music like this by Johnny Winter These are the earliest recordings of blues guitarist Johnny Winter recorded in the '60s before he was signed by Columbia in 1968. Most of the material is comprised of doo wop, R&B, and twist instrumentals, all gritty enough not to be relegated as generic after the first listen. Winter also covers several songs he obviously was fond of by Chuck ... see all copies from $24.99! new only from $24.99!

17 view cover	Hey! Bo Diddley/Bo Diddley (1996) more music like this by Bo Diddley Beat Goes On reissued Bo Diddley's eponymous debut and his 1962 effort Hey! Bo Diddley on one compact disc in 1996. Although these two records don't necessarily sit well together -- the first is sublime, the second notoriously uneven -- it's still a nice way to pick them up on CD, especially since the sound and packaging are first-rate. However, ... see all copies from $9.57! new only from $9.57!

19 view cover	Live at the BBC (2003) more music like this by The Zombies Like a majority of up-and-coming British bands of the 1960s, the Zombies made nearly two dozen BBC Light and Radio 1 transmissions between the fall of 1964 and the spring of 1968. The 29 cuts hail from a variety of those programs. In many cases their alternate persona as a consummate and immensely soulful cover combo is likewise illuminated. The ... see all copies from $10.29! new only from $10.29!
20 view cover	Gold (2008) more music like this by Bo Diddley Released four months after Bo's death -- and roughly a year and a half after Universal's single-disc The Definitive Collection -- the double-disc Gold is a thorough 41-track overview of Diddley's classic Chess recordings, containing all the usual suspects and filling out the margins with some of Bo's bluesier material. This emphasis on blues gives ... see all copies from $16.02! new only from $16.02!
21 view cover	Here Comes Cessation (1999) more music like this by Thee Headcoatees Thee Headcoatees were stripped down to a three-piece for 1999's Here Comes Cessation, which proved to be the final album from the U.K. garage punk gals. If the group didn't seem to have progressed especially far from where they started on their sixth album, they hadn't lost touch with their virtues, either -- with their friend and guiding light ... see all copies from $11.18! new only from $11.18!
22 view cover	Road Runner: The Chess Masters 1959-1960 (2008) more music like this by Bo Diddley Road Runner, the second volume of Hip-O Select's ongoing chronicle of Bo Diddley's complete Chess/Checker master recordings, covers roughly one calendar year whereas its predecessor, I'm a Man, spanned four -- a good indication that 1959 was an eventful year for Bo. During this one year, he had his biggest pop hit in the jive-talking "Say Man" and ... see all copies from $25.61! new only from $25.61!
