1	Greatest Folksingers of the '60s (1972) more music like this by Various Artists Not only was Maynard Solomon's Vanguard Records one of the major folk labels of the 60s (having the prescience to pick up Joan Baez early on, and then recording the cream of the singer/songwriters thereafter), but it also had the rights to record and release material from the Newport Folk Festival, giving it access to several artists who were not ... see all copies from $14.21! new only from $14.21!
2	20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of Flat & Scruggs (2001) more music like this by Flatt & Scruggs Flatt & Scruggs' volume of Mercury/Universal's 20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection is an excellent, basic collection of 12 of the duo's finest recordings for Mercury. Many, though not all, of their signature tunes are here, including "Foggy Mountain Breakdown," "Roll in My Sweet Baby's Arms," "I'll Just Pretend," and "Pike County ... see all copies from $5.93! new only from $6.84!
3	The Essential Earl Scruggs (2004) more music like this by Earl Scruggs "The Paganini of the banjo"'s finest moments are collected on Columbia/Legacy's aptly named Essential Earl Scruggs. Unlike many other "best-of" collections, this two-disc set gathers tracks from nearly all of the stages of Scruggs' career, from his early days as one of Bill Monroe's Blue Grass Boys, through his genre-defining work with Lester ... see all copies from $13.48! new only from $20.52!
4	The Best of Mississippi John Hurt [Vanguard] (1989) more music like this by Mississippi John Hurt Contrary to what its title would make one believe, this record is not a collection of previously available recordings by Mississippi John Hurt -- rather, it is a complete concert from Oberlin College on April 15, 1965. Regardless, the title is justified, as the concert features Hurt in excellent form doing most of his best known classic songs from ... see all copies from $15.29! new only from $15.29!
5	Flatt & Scruggs at Carnegie Hall! [The Complete Concert] (1998) more music like this by Lester Flatt/Earl Scruggs When Flatt & Scruggs appeared on the Carnegie Hall stage in December of 1962, it was proof that bluegrass music had hit the big time. Guitarist and singer Lester Flatt and banjo god Earl Scruggs (who has been credited, not entirely accurately, with inventing the three-finger picking style that distinguishes bluegrass banjo playing from its old ... see all copies from $15.85! new only from $15.85!
6	Earl Scruggs: His Family and Friends/Nashville Airplane (2000) more music like this by Flatt & Scruggs One of Earl Scruggs' best solo albums paired with one of the duo's late LPs, on which Scruggs was the dominant personality. On Nashville Airplane, he an Lester Flatt did four Bob Dylan songs, and on Earl Scruggs: His Family & Friends he worked with Dylan himself, as well as the Byrds, Joan Baez, and Doc Watson. Neither album was ever on CD by ... see all copies from $8.70! new only from $8.70!
7	Bluegrass: It's About Time, It's About Me (2005) more music like this by Roy Clark This isn't exactly a bluegrass album, although it comes close, gathering tracks Roy Clark recorded in the 1970s for the Dot and ABC labels that are generally bluegrass in nature. Most of the tracks are from 1973's Roy Clark's Family Album and 1974's Family and Friends, with additional tracks drawn from Clark's two albums with banjo player Buck ... see all copies from $9.32! new only from $9.32!
8	The Complete Mercury Sessions (1992) more music like this by Lester Flatt/Earl Scruggs/The Foggy Mountain Boys The integral early recordings of this seminal bluegrass band. Included is their classic "Foggy Mountain Breakdown," "Roll in My Sweet Baby's Arms," "Old Salty Dog Blues" and others. It's indispensable for bluegrass fans. Michael McCall, All Music Guide see all copies from $9.00!
9	That Old Book of Mine (2005) more music like this by Curly Seckler Trucker and bluegrass singer Curly Seckler isn't one of those names that pop into the mind of the average bluegrass fan the way Ralph Stanley does. Still, Seckler played an important role in a number of first generation bluegrass bands, including a long stretch with Flatt & Scruggs in the 1950s. With time out for his day job, trucking, Seckler ... see all copies from $10.65! new only from $10.65!
10	Avalon Blues (1963) more music like this by Mississippi John Hurt This is the first in a multiple-volume series devoted to the Piedmont recordings Hurt made upon his rediscovery in the early '60s. They capture him with his playing and singing still intact, untouched by the world around him, a world that had changed so much since he initially recorded back in the '20s. Many of his best-known tunes are here -- ... see all copies from $5.24! new only from $14.01!
11 view cover	Rediscovered (1998) more music like this by Mississippi John Hurt Featuring over 75 minutes and 23 tracks, Rediscovered compiles tracks off Hurt's four Vanguard releases -- Today!, The Immortal Mississippi John Hurt, Last Sessions, and The Best of Mississippi John Hurt. The tracks selected are truly first-rate and give a fine cross-section of Hurt's gently rolling country-blues, including many of his better ... see all copies from $7.72! new only from $14.21!
12 view cover	Folk Duets (1998) more music like this by Various Artists As a compilation, this 20-track disc is one of the better recent Vanguard releases, assembling a quartet of key Ian & Sylvia (including "You Were On My Mind" and "Someday Soon") and Mimi and Richard Farina songs, alongside duets between Bob Dylan and Joan Baez at Newport, Bob Gibson and Hamilton Camp, Dylan and Pete Seeger, Flatt & Scruggs, and ... see all copies from $7.50! new only from $14.27!
13 view cover	Home Is Where the Heart Is (1988) more music like this by David Grisman A more traditional country and bluegrass album than his "dawg" sessions, Rounder issued this Grisman session in 1988. He's playing with J.D. Crowe, Ricky Skaggs, and Doc Watson, among others. There's little jazz here, but there are some superb bluegrass, country, and folk selections, plus marvelous playing. Ron Wynn, All Music Guide see all copies from $20.48! new only from $20.48!
14 view cover	Bona Fide Bluegrass Mountain Music (2002) more music like this by Various Artists O Bandwagon, Where Art Thou? In the frenzied rush to capitalize on the unprecedented success of the film (oh, you know which one), many labels have cranked out one old-timey collection after another. Luckily in this case, the RCA labels have the archives to back up their compilation and what results is sort of a second primer on traditional ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $5.71!
15 view cover	Classic Bluegrass Live: 1959-1966 (2002) more music like this by Earl Scruggs While cobbled together from mostly previously released material, Classic Bluegrass Live nonetheless neatly captures banjoist Earl Scruggs on his arc through the folk revival of the 1960s. The disc is culled from three performances at the renowned Newport Folk Festival -- one with Hylo Brown in 1959 and two with longtime partner Lester Flatt in ... see all copies from $14.21! new only from $14.21!

17 view cover	The Best of Mississippi John Hurt [Aim] (1998) more music like this by Mississippi John Hurt Mississippi John Hurt did a live 21-song set on April 15, 1965, at Oberlin College in Ohio, a scant two years after his rediscovery in 1963, and a year before his death in 1966. Hurt was remarkably consistent as a performer, whether you listen to his famous 1920s Okeh tracks, his rediscovery studio work for Vanguard Records, or the handful of live ... see all copies from $9.70! new only from $9.70!
18 view cover	Live [Vanguard] (2002) more music like this by Mississippi John Hurt Mississippi John Hurt's vocal and guitar style are always easy on the ears. Unlike a number of Delta stylists with their high-pitched voices and slashing slide guitars, Hurt's approach to country blues is immediately accessible. Recorded (for the most part) at Oberlin College in 1965, Live captures Hurt a couple of years after his rediscovery and ... see all copies from $14.27! new only from $14.27!
19 view cover	The Best of Bluegrass, Vol. 1 [Polygram] (1953) more music like this by Various Artists The Best of Bluegrass, Vol. 1 is an excellent 22-track sampler of the genre, containing most of the most famous songs in bluegrass, including the Country Gentlemen's "Can't You Hear Me Calling?," and the Lonesome Pine Fiddlers' "Blue Moon of Kentucky," Flatt & Scruggs' "Roll in My Sweet Baby's Arms" and "Foggy Mountain Breakdown," and the original ... see all copies from $3.79! new only from $8.22!
20 view cover	Bluegrass at Newport: 1959-1963 (1959) more music like this by Various Artists A gem of a CD featuring Flatt & Scruggs, Jim & Jesse, Mac Wiseman, Doc Watson, and the New Lost City Ramblers. Chip Renner, All Music Guide see all copies from $2.99! new only from $11.83!
21 view cover	Satisfying Blues (1995) more music like this by Mississippi John Hurt Mississippi John Hurt did a live 21-song set on April 15, 1965, at Oberlin College in Ohio, a scant two years after his rediscovery in 1963, and a year before his death in 1966. Hurt was remarkably consistent as a performer, whether you listen to his famous 1920s Okeh tracks, his rediscovery studio work for Vanguard Records, or the handful of live ... see all copies from $10.04! new only from $10.04!
22 view cover	American Roots Music [Box Set] (2001) more music like this by Various Artists The successes of the breakthrough soundtrack from the film O Brother Where Art Thou? and the in-depth PBS television series Ken Burns' Jazz seem to have combined in the 2001 production of Palm Pictures' four-part TV series American Roots Music. The series touches on the development of the distinctly American styles of traditional folk, country, ... see all copies from $21.93! new only from $45.29!
23 view cover	1948-1959 (1992) more music like this by Lester Flatt & Earl Scruggs The first of four box sets documenting the complete recordings of Flatt & Scruggs as a working band, this one detailing the group's first 11 years is generally considered the most essential. These 113 tracks represent the duo's complete Mercury recordings on disc one and the beginning of their Columbia sides on discs two through four. There is one ... see all copies from $96.30! new only from $96.30!
