2	Deep in the Blues (1996) more music like this by James Cotton Deep in the Blues is a fascinating jam session between James Cotton, guitarist Joe Louis Walker, and jazz bassist Charlie Haden. The trio runs through a number of classic blues songs written by Muddy Waters, Percy Mayfield, and Sonny Boy Williamson and a few originals by Walker and Cotton. The sound is intimate and raw, which is a welcome change ... see all copies from $9.50! new only from $9.50!

4	1937-1940, Vol. 2 (2005) more music like this by Big Bill Broonzy The second volume in JSP's Big Bill Broonzy retrospective is four discs long, covering the bluesman's years in Chicago and New York. What is astonishing is that there are 100 tracks here. While it's true that there are many alternate takes for the sake of the historical record, nonetheless, when combined with volume one, this accounts for a ... see all copies from $25.93! new only from $25.93!
5	Complete Recorded Works, Vol. 7 (1937-1938) (1992) more music like this by Big Bill Broonzy Big Bill Broonzy's 1930s recordings (reissued in full on this extensive series of Document CDs) are remarkably consistent and have an impressive amount of variety within the blues idiom. During the 11 months covered by this seventh volume, Broonzy recorded as part of three different trios with either Blind John Davis or Joshua Altheimer on piano ... see all copies from $6.48! new only from $13.69!
6	More Real Folk Blues (1967) more music like this by Muddy Waters The companion volume to the first Waters entry in the series is even more down home than the first. Featuring another brace of early Chess sides from 1948-1952, this release features some essential tracks not found on The Chess Box. With the bludgeoning stomp of "She's Alright" featuring Elgin Evans's kickass drumming and the moody introspection ... see all copies from $12.00! new only from $60.18!
7	The Real Folk Blues/More Real Folk Blues [MCA] (1999) more music like this by Muddy Waters Waters' The Real Folk Blues and More Real Folk Blues, combined here onto one CD, were not exactly random collections of tracks -- the quality was too consistently high for them to just have been picked out of a hat. Still, it was a pretty arbitrary grouping of items that he recorded between 1947 and 1964. In fact, they hail from throughout his ... see all copies from $10.26! new only from $10.26!
8	Mississippi Rollin' Stone (1996) more music like this by Muddy Waters see all copies from $9.22! new only from $9.22!
9	Feel Like Going Home (2004) more music like this by Muddy Waters Feel Like Going Home is a compilation of Muddy Waters' earliest sides, dating between his days at Stovall's Plantation in the early 1940s and his October 1950 sessions for Chess Records, all assembled in no particular order. The CD's manufacturer, Complete Blues, is associated with Charly Records and is taking advantage of very lax European ... see all copies from $9.69! new only from $9.69!
10	Rollin' Stone [Proper] (2002) more music like this by Muddy Waters see all copies from $3.82! new only from $3.82!
11 view cover	Complete Recorded Works, Vol. 10 (1938-1939) (1993) more music like this by Tampa Red Over ten years into Tampa Red's career and ten discs into their voluminous, multi-decade-spanning series of Complete Recorded Works, Document continued as strong as ever. These 22 tracks, recorded from mid-1938 to late 1939, embrace blues, rhythm tunes, and an occasional novelty like "Booze Head Woman" or "I Got a Big Surprise for You." As on ... see all copies from $10.33! new only from $10.33!

15 view cover	Rural Blues, Vol. 3 (1999) more music like this by Various Artists Originally issued on vinyl in the 1970s, this set is even better on CD, featuring a treasure trove of rare and previously unissued sides from the vast EMI vaults. Big-ticket highlights include the Papa Lightfoot sides ("Jump the Boogie" is a major revelation), Boogie Bill Webb's chaotic "Boogie," and J.D. Edwards' "Playboy Blues" and "Hobo," both ... see all copies from $19.82! new only from $19.82!
16 view cover	The Blues: Rolling Stone: 1941-1950 (2002) more music like this by Muddy Waters There are countless Muddy Waters compilations on the market, but what makes this two-disc package so interesting is that it traces the transformation of Waters from a tractor operator on Stovall's Plantation in Mississippi to his incarnation as the king of Chicago blues. Opening with a pair of acoustic field recordings, "Country Blues" and the ... see all copies from $25.84! new only from $25.84!
17 view cover	Blues: Slide Guitar Wizard, Chicago 1931-1946 (2004) more music like this by Tampa Red One of the greatest slide guitarists of the early blues era, and a man with an odd fascination with the kazoo, Tampa Red also fancied himself a piano player, and by the mid-'40s he was playing electric guitar and cutting tracks that were proto-templates for the electric Chicago blues sound, although a bit more reined-in and refined. This two-disc ... see all copies from $25.95! new only from $25.95!
18 view cover	1950-1952 (2004) more music like this by Muddy Waters see all copies from $10.25! new only from $10.25!
