1	The Little Willies (2006) more music like this by The Little Willies The Little Willies could be called a supergroup if they had more than one star in their lineup. Instead, the quintet is a group of five New York musicians -- highlighted by pianist/vocalist Norah Jones, but also featuring her regular bassist Lee Alexander, guitarist/vocalist Richard Julian, guitarist Jim Campilongo, and drummer Dan Rieser -- who ... see all copies from $2.98! new only from $8.00!
2	The Essential Gene Autry (2005) more music like this by Gene Autry This double-CD Gene Autry compilation, though impressive on a sonic level, and reasonably full, isn't quite perfect. Oh, it covers all of the basics and even gives some play to aspects of Autry such as his blues singing, represented by "Dallas County Jail Blues" and "T.B. Blues," that usually isn't familiar to listeners whose knowledge is limited ... see all copies from $6.00! new only from $6.00!
3	Ride With Bob (1999) more music like this by Asleep at the Wheel Asleep at the Wheel devoted its entire career to Western swing, which is commonly known as the music Bob Wills created. They became the standard bearers for the genre, making sure that it was still an integral part of the country music mainstream. Since their entire career feels like a living monument to Wills, it almost seems unnecessary for them ... see all copies from $6.93! new only from $10.96!
4	Hana and the Dragon and Other Tales from Japan (2001) by Elizabeth Falconer see all copies from $6.63! new only from $11.27!
5	Killers from Space (2007) more music like this by James Luther Dickinson Though billed to James Luther Dickinson, this is the same Southern roots rock musician who most rock fans know as multi-instrumentalist Jim Dickinson. He's the lead singer (and co-producer) on this record, but only wrote one of the dozen songs. The others were drawn from diverse sources like Doug Sahm, the Green on Red side project Howard Hughes' ... see all copies from $14.35! new only from $14.35!
6	Best of Carl Smith (1991) more music like this by Carl Smith Best of Carl Smith is a 12-track budget-priced collection that features some of his biggest late-'70s hits, including "Roly Poly," "If You Don't, Somebody Else Will," "A Way with Words," "Show Me a Brick Wall," "This Kinda Love Ain't Meant for Sunday School," "The Way I Lose My Mind," and "This Lady Loving Me." Although this isn't a bad budget ... see all copies from $7.03! new only from $7.03!
7	Anthology 1935-1973 (1991) more music like this by Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys The only comprehensive retrospective of Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys, the double-disc set Anthology 1935-1973 contains material from every label the Playboys recorded for and features the hit version of each of Wills' most famous songs, including "Right or Wrong," "Time Changes Everything," "Corrine, Corrina," "New San Antonio Rose," "Take Me ... see all copies from $12.91! new only from $28.03!
8	Take Me Back to Tulsa [Proper Box] (2002) more music like this by Bob Wills Everyone who's ever explored Western swing knows that Bob Wills' music was revolutionary, but any fan who hasn't listened to the music on disc one of this collection probably doesn't realize how revolutionary it really was. Most modern retrospectives concentrate on music that Wills made after his signature sound was firmly established, but the ... see all copies from $7.35! new only from $7.35!
9	The King of Western Swing: 25 Hits (1935-1945) (1998) more music like this by Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys As singer, fiddler, and bandleader of the Texas Playboys, Bob Wills played the same fatherly role to western swing that Bill Monroe did to bluegrass. No one is sure if he invented the music itself, but it's clear that the recordings of his Texas Playboys have since come to define the genre. As a musical hybrid, western swing introduced blues and ... see all copies from $12.89!
10	Do You Love Me Like You Say: The Very Best of Terence Trent d'Arby (2006) more music like this by Terence Trent D'Arby Sporting the same cover art if not the same track listing as the 2002 U.K. double-disc compilation Greatest Hits, Columbia/Legacy's 2006 Do You Love Me Like You Say: The Very Best of Terrence Trent d'Arby is the first American TTD collection, so it's not surprising that it's targeted toward a U.S. audience, removing some British hits and playing ... see all copies from $9.56! new only from $9.56!
11 view cover	Legends of Country Music (2006) more music like this by Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys That Bob Wills was one of the architects of American music is a given, but his particular creation -- he didn't name it Western swing, but that's what it came to be called -- did not arise from the dust. Wills, refusing to be restricted, subsumed virtually every genre available to him at the time, from blues to big band, popular song to old-timey, ... see all copies from $35.00! new only from $35.00!
12 view cover	Legends of Country Music: The Best of Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys (2006) more music like this by Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys As is often the case nowadays, not long after Legacy released the definitive Bob Wills & His Texas Playboys four-disc, 105-track box set Legends of Country Music, the label released a single-disc, 18-track summary of that set, Legends of Country Music: The Best of Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys. Most of Wills' key recordings are here, like "New ... see all copies from $10.00! new only from $10.00!
13 view cover	Tex Williams & His Western Caravan: 1946-1951 (2002) more music like this by Tex Williams & the Western Caravan A great, packed single-disc collection of Tex Williams, Tex Williams & His Western Caravan: 1946-1951 captures the peak of Williams' career and provides a fine overview featuring his biggest hits, "Smoke, Smoke, Smoke That Cigarette," "Cattle Call," and others. With 31 quality tracks over 74 minutes, this collection weighs in near the top of the ... see all copies from $14.69! new only from $14.69!
14 view cover	Neither Fish nor Flesh (1989) more music like this by Terence Trent d'Arby Following the major success of his debut, Terence Trent d'Arby made the always-difficult sophomore effort more difficult. In addition to the brash declarations that preceded his first record, d'Arby made ultimately self-sabotaging demands upon his label, concerning Neither Fish nor Flesh's promotion and release (to coincide with the competitive ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $5.13!
15 view cover	Irish Experience: Riverdance & Other Jigs & Reels (1997) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $5.38! new only from $5.38!
16 view cover	Back to the Future Now - Live at Arizona Charlie's (1997) more music like this by Asleep at the Wheel "Why another live record?" asks bandleader Ray Benson in his liner notes to Asleep At The Wheel's fourth concert disc, and he has two answers, both valid. First, with hundreds of gigs per year, Asleep At The Wheel is essentially a live band, and live records reflect that. Second, Benson has cooked up a reunion performance in which original ... see all copies from $2.95! new only from $5.11!

20 view cover	Live from Austin, TX (2006) more music like this by Asleep at the Wheel What more can you ask for? Asleep at the Wheel playing on Austin City Limits running through a smoking program of rocking, strolling Western swing tunes -- with special guests like Eldon Shamblin, Johnny Gimble, Leon Rausch, and Herb Remington no less. Asleep at the Wheel have performed on Austin City Limits numerous times -- including the very ... see all copies from $7.38! new only from $11.44!
21 view cover	I Love You: Golden Classics (1994) more music like this by The Volumes The Collectables set I Love You: Golden Classics is a brief look at the Volumes' short career on the Chex label during the early '60s. Including about one-third of the group's three-dozen-track career, the set includes their only chart entry, the 1962 Top 40 hit "I Love You," along with fair period material like "Roly Poly," "Miss Silhouette," and ... see all copies from $5.00! new only from $8.81!
22 view cover	Salute the Majesty of Bob Wills (1998) more music like this by The Pine Valley Cosmonauts The full title, Salute the Majesty of Bob Wills: King of Western Swing, Pioneer, Traditionalist, Avant-Gardist, Magician, says it all -- despite their loose, freewheeling attitude, the Pine Valley Cosmonauts truly love and admire Wills' music, and each of these 19 covers evokes his brilliance with genuine reverence. Equally impressive is the guest ... see all copies from $5.90! new only from $10.52!

24 view cover	San Antonio Rose (1962) more music like this by Ray Price Fans of Ray Price or Bob Wills won't want to miss the Price's 1961 album, San Antonio Rose: A Tribute to the Great Bob Wills. Price, who acknowledged Wills as a primary influence, became the first of many to devote an album to covering the songs of the renowned master of Southwestern dance music. Price recorded the album in a nine-hour period, ... see all copies from $4.00!
25 view cover	Radio Days, Vol. 1 (1999) more music like this by Jim Reeves and Friends If you are a country music fan, especially classic country music fan, than you no doubt have a strong opinion on Jim Reeves. He's either the Caruso of the genre or a pop sellout who brought about the ruin of the original, raw honky-tonk music, along with Chet Atkins, in favor of the countrypolitan sound. For those in the latter group, one listen ... see all copies from $89.95! new only from $89.95!
