4	Unplugged (The Official Bootleg) (1991) more music like this by Paul McCartney Released after the studied, meticulous Flowers in the Dirt, the live acoustic concert album Unplugged was a breath of fresh air, and it remains one of the most enjoyable records in McCartney's catalog.

5	Mixed Bag (1967) more music like this by Richie Havens Richie Havens' finest recording, Mixed Bag captures the essence of his music and presents it in an attractive package that has held up well.

6	Time to Move On (1999) more music like this by Glenn Yarbrough Glenn Yarbrough's first solo album after leaving the Limelighters, Time to Move On, set the tone for the rest of his career: light acoustic arrangements, songs from an eclectic array of sources, and vibrato-laden vocals.

7	Carry It On [Bonus DVD] (2003) more music like this by Peter, Paul and Mary Peter, Paul & Mary's multi-decade career is for the most part well summarized, and certainly extremely well packaged, on this four-CD, 90-track box set.

10	Best of the Vanguard Years (2004) more music like this by Rooftop Singers In the liner notes of the Rooftop Singers' Best of the Vanguard Years, Dave Samuelson suggests that the group was unfairly overlooked during the revival.

Stranger still ... see all copies from $14.21! new only from $14.21!
11 view cover	The Ballad of Ramblin' Jack (2000) more music like this by Ramblin' Jack Elliott This soundtrack to the 2000 documentary film about Elliott (directed by his daughter) also serves as a pretty good career retrospective.

He wrote little of his own ... see all copies from $15.29! new only from $15.29!

14 view cover	South Coast (1995) more music like this by Ramblin' Jack Elliott Ramblin' Jack Elliot, this 1995 album (his first after more than a two-decade hiatus from the studio) goes to show, only gets better with age.

15 view cover	Vanguard Visionaries (2007) more music like this by Rooftop Singers The Rooftop Singers installment of the Vanguard Visionaries series may have "Walk Right In" and "Tom Cat," but this ultra-low-budget collection has about as many frills as one of those mid-'80s Scantron tests (kind of looks like one, too).

22 view cover	They Call Us Au Go-Go Singers (1964) more music like this by The Au Go-Go Singers 1964, being the year of The Beatles, was also the very end of the folk group phenomenon.

23 view cover	San Francisco Bay Blues (1963) more music like this by Jesse Fuller By the time San Francisco Bay Blues was released in 1963, the title track had long been established as a classic and Jesse Fuller's career had been revived.
