1	Fresh Cream (1966) more music like this by Cream Fresh Cream represents so many different firsts, it's difficult to keep count. Cream, of course, was the first supergroup, but their first album not only gave birth to the power trio, it also was instrumental in the birth of heavy metal and the birth of jam rock. That's a lot of weight for one record and, like a lot of pioneering records, Fresh ... see all copies from $7.20! new only from $7.58!
2	Modern Times (2006) more music like this by Bob Dylan When Bob Dylan dropped Time Out of Mind in 1997, it was a rollicking rockabilly and blues record, full of sad songs about mortality, disappointment, and dissolution. 2001 brought Love and Theft, which was also steeped in stomping blues and other folk forms. It was funny, celebratory in places and biting in others. Dylan has been busy since then: ... see all copies from $2.98! new only from $9.86!
3	Gold (2005) more music like this by Cream There has been no shortage of Cream compilations over the years -- as a matter of fact, they far outnumber the group's actual albums, of which there were merely four (true, they were recorded during an insanely productive two-year lifespan) -- but 2005's Gold is arguably the best of the lot. Released as part of Universal's ongoing Gold series, ... see all copies from $8.83! new only from $17.05!
4	The Progressive Blues Experiment (1969) more music like this by Johnny Winter Although his early Columbia albums brought him worldwide stardom, it was this modest little album (first released on Imperial before the Columbia sides) that first brought Johnny Winter to the attention of guitarheads in America. It's also Winter at the beginning of a long career, playing the blues as if his life depends on it, without applying a ... see all copies from $10.79! new only from $10.79!
5	BBC Sessions (2003) more music like this by Cream This compilation of 22 Cream BBC tracks from 1966-1968 marked a major addition to the group's discography, particularly as they released relatively little product during their actual lifetime. All of but two of these cuts ("Lawdy Mama" and the 1968 version of "Steppin' Out," which had appeared on Eric Clapton's Crossroads box) were previously ... see all copies from $10.49! new only from $10.49!
6	The Very Best of Canned Heat [Capitol] (2005) more music like this by Canned Heat With the glut of Canned Heat compilations available, what makes this 19-song Capitol/EMI release better than the rest? For starters, the previously unreleased track "Henry's Shuffle," featuring guitarist Henry Vestine and recorded in 1968, which was undoubtedly the zenith year for the band; the inclusion of "Low Down (And High Up)"; the rare ... see all copies from $9.78! new only from $10.22!
7	Live Bootleg Series, Vol. 1 (2007) more music like this by Johnny Winter The most important thing to know about this Live Bootleg Series by Johnny Winter is that these are officially released tapes by him and he produced these recordings. These are not bootlegs in the sense of the word we have used it since the 1960s. That said, on this first volume, Winter goes back into his personal archive and pulls out various ... see all copies from $11.09! new only from $11.09!
8	The Sky Is Crying: The History of Elmore James (1993) more music like this by Elmore James With the confusing plethora of Elmore James discs out on the market, this is truly the place to start, featuring the best of his work culled from several labels. Highlights include James' original recording of "Dust My Broom," "It Hurts Me Too," "T.V. Mama" (with Elmore backing Big Joe Turner), and the title track, one of the best slow blues ever ... see all copies from $6.50! new only from $8.02!
9	The Anthology: 1947-1972 (2001) more music like this by Muddy Waters There have been countless collections of Muddy Waters' classic Chess material released over the years, but Chess began to whittle down the domestic catalog toward the late '90s. The triple-disc Chess box remained in print, but they added two single-disc collections that each covered a specific period in Waters' career at Chess. Then, in 2001, MCA ... see all copies from $25.20! new only from $25.20!
10	Live Cream, Vol. 1 (1970) more music like this by Cream Cream was a band born to the stage. This is their most consistently brilliant album. Four of the five cuts appeared on Fresh Cream. The fifth, "Lawdy Mama," is a traditional blues piece that makes its first appearance here. All but "Lawdy Mama" are given extended jazz-based treatment. The dialog among the three musicians as the jams develop is ... see all copies from $2.99! new only from $6.66!
11 view cover	Modern Times [CD/DVD] (2006) more music like this by Bob Dylan When Bob Dylan dropped Time Out of Mind in 1997, it was a rollicking rockabilly and blues record, full of sad songs about mortality, disappointment, and dissolution. 2001 brought Love and Theft, which was also steeped in stomping blues and other folk forms. It was funny, celebratory in places and biting in others. Dylan has been busy since then: ... see all copies from $4.64! new only from $20.33!
12 view cover	The Best of Canned Heat [EMI] (1972) more music like this by Canned Heat This ten-track set contains essential sides from the classic rock blues and boogie combo Canned Heat, culled from their first four long-players: Canned Heat (1967), Boogie With Canned Heat (1968), Living the Blues [Akarma] (1968), and Hallelujah (1969). Notably, this discounts Canned Heat Cookbook (1969), a hits package that cashed in on their ... see all copies from $8.96! new only from $8.96!
13 view cover	Those Were the Days (1997) more music like this by Cream Those Were the Days is an ambitious four-disc, 63-track box set that divides Cream's career into two halves. The first two discs feature every studio track the group ever released, plus a handful of unreleased cuts, alternate takes, and rarities. The other two discs are devoted to live material, which is segued together in an attempt to recreate ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $29.62!
14 view cover	Best of Johnny Winter [Columbia/Legacy] (2002) more music like this by Johnny Winter Columbia/Legacy's 2002 release The Best of Johnny Winter concentrates solely on the guitarist's early recordings for Columbia, which are often (and deservedly) considered his best work. Nearly all of the 16 selections here were recorded between 1969 and 1971 -- there's a stray cut from 1973, plus two cuts from 1979, dating from his time on Blue ... see all copies from $5.99! new only from $8.57!
15 view cover	A Bothered Mind (2004) more music like this by R.L. Burnside When R.L. Burnside and the rest of the Fat Possum confederation emerged from the northern Mississippi hills in the early '90s, they gave contemporary blues a much-needed shot in the ass, reminding everyone that the genre really wasn't so much about pyrotechnic guitar histrionics as it was about getting folks to hit the dancefloor, and once there, ... see all copies from $7.45! new only from $11.18!
16 view cover	Highway Song Live (1982) more music like this by Blackfoot Like their Native American ancestors before them, the members of Blackfoot must have known what it felt like to be exiled from their homeland. Only, rather than being forced into an Indian reservation, the world's first all-Native American hard rock band found itself trying to scrape together a good wage across the pond, where U.K. audiences ... see all copies from $14.46! new only from $14.46!
17 view cover	Royal Albert Hall: London May 2-3-5-6 2005 (2005) more music like this by Cream For one reason or another, Cream reunited in the spring of 2005, setting aside nearly 40 years of acrimony for a series of gigs at the Royal Albert Hall in May, which was later followed by a few shows at Madison Square Garden about a month after souvenirs of the London shows -- a double-CD set and a double-DVD set -- were released. By that time, ... see all copies from $12.56! new only from $13.95!
18 view cover	Rough Guide to Chicago Blues (2003) more music like this by Various Artists Ah, the Chicago blues. While it very much has its own identity, developed from the '30s on, it's the direct descendent of the Delta blues of Mississippi, gussied up in city clothes and given a bit of a polish -- but never too much of one. The Rough Guide to Chicago Blues compilation proves to be one of the best at uncovering the city and its style ... see all copies from $6.78! new only from $10.51!
19 view cover	First Recordings (2003) more music like this by R.L. Burnside At the time these tracks were cut, 1967 and 1968, R.L. Burnside was working on a plantation in Coldwater, MS, cutting silage. Folklorist George Mitchell was on a mission to record unknown blues singers down South. Mitchell heard about Burnside and paid him a visit, asking if he could record him. That night Mitchell returned to Burnside's place ... see all copies from $13.27! new only from $15.00!
20 view cover	Alone & Acoustic (1991) more music like this by Buddy Guy/Junior Wells The classic pairing of Buddy Guy and Junior Wells has been captured many times on vinyl, cassette, and disc over the years, but rarely with such intimacy and subtle, restrained energy as on this wonderful collection. Buddy Guy plays mostly 12 string guitar, and Junior laces his signature lines through the songs, engaging Guy in the kind of musical ... see all copies from $9.50! new only from $15.82!
21 view cover	His Best: 1947 to 1955 (1997) more music like this by Muddy Waters This entry into MCA's Chess 50th Anniversary Collection now officially takes the place of The Best of Muddy Waters as an essential first purchase in building a Muddy Waters collection. All 12 songs that comprise the budget-priced The Best of Muddy Waters are aboard, with eight more essential goodies from his first period of creativity, including ... see all copies from $9.47! new only from $9.47!
22 view cover	Scene It All (2000) more music like this by The Seldom Scene With the gradual departure of most of its original members and the sudden and untimely death of mandolinist/singer/founder John Duffey in late 1996, one might forgive the Seldom Scene if it had just given up the ghost. But instead, the sole remaining original member (banjoist Ben Eldridge) gathered some of the more recent participants around him ... see all copies from $10.89! new only from $16.32!
23 view cover	Burnside on Burnside (2001) more music like this by R.L. Burnside Like jazz, blues music has faced a problem of attrition, with its major names dying off and younger artists having trouble establishing themselves at anything like an equal level of recognition. One way out of this dilemma has been the discovery of new-old bluesmen, musicians who have reached an advanced age without becoming stars, who can now be ... see all copies from $15.30! new only from $15.30!
24 view cover	Righteousness and Humidity (2003) more music like this by Martin Simpson Martin Simpson might have made his reputation as a folk guitarist, but blues has been a part of him since he was young, and he plays it -- as he plays everything -- with both incredible technique and driving passion. And while his roots might be far from the Mississippi Delta, his heart is right there. To be fair, he can't hold a candle to the ... see all copies from $15.61! new only from $15.61!
25 view cover	Back Talk/Rocket Roll (2005) more music like this by The Rockets Detroit's Rockets are not one of the groups people might think of when considering that city's storied history of great bands -- for a reason, since they weren't all that special. Still, they have a vital link to the Detroit sound as drummer Johnny "Bee" Badanjek was in Mitch Ryder & the Detroit Wheels and Detroit and guitarist Jim McCarty was ... see all copies from $9.82! new only from $9.82!
