1	Quartet [2007] (2007) more music like this by Metheny Mehldau Quartet Guitarist Pat Metheny and pianist Brad Mehldau created a stir in 2006 with their wonderful duet recording. On that set, two of the album's ten cuts featured Mehldau's rhythm section of bassist Larry Grenadier and drummer Jeff Ballard. Quartet is a mirror image: seven of these 11 cuts are full quartet sides. The musical magic established by that ... see all copies from $15.63! new only from $15.63!
2	So Much for the City (2003) more music like this by The Thrills Five friends who grew up together in Dublin, called the Thrills, have produced a remarkably neat debut album. At the heart of their sound is a professed love for the tunes of the American West Coast of the '60s and '70s. Set to a backdrop of Al Green, Carole King, and the Band, they quickly pieced together tracks for their debut album, So Much for ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $8.28!
3	Better Living Through Chemistry (1996) more music like this by Fatboy Slim Fatboy Slim is one of DJ Norman Cook's many aliases, and has proven to be his most popular and successful yet. Although he consistently racks up dance hits in his native England (each under a different surname), he didn't achieve global success until the re-release of Better Living Through Chemistry in 1997. On the insistence of his friends the ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $13.45!
4	Etc. (2001) more music like this by Lloyd Cole A self-proclaimed lost album, Lloyd Cole's Etc. is a gentle, charming, and mature collection of demos, covers, and original songs recorded between Love Story and The Negatives. It just might be Cole's most accessible album. Relying heavily on Cole's folksy, country acoustic guitar strumming, Neil Clark's plaintive lap steel guitar work, and Cole's ... see all copies from $6.75! new only from $6.75!
5	The Very Best of Andean Flutes (2006) more music like this by Joël F. Perri/Cédric Perri see all copies from $5.96! new only from $5.96!
6	Live (1981) more music like this by Pharoah Sanders This album features Pharoah Sanders playing some no-nonsense tenor in a quartet with pianist John Hicks, bassist Walter Booker, and drummer Idris Muhammad. Sanders performs "It's Easy to Remember" (in a style very reminiscent of early-'60s John Coltrane), an original blues, and two of his compositions, including the passionate "You've Got to Have ... see all copies from $10.52! new only from $10.52!
7	Best Acoustic Album in the World (2005) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $15.02! new only from $15.02!
8	Live (1996) more music like this by Martin Simpson Fans of Simpson's meld of traditional Celtic and the blues and spirituals of African-Americans can get a taste of a Simpson performance in this one-man acoustic show, performed at the Holywell Music Room at Oxford in October 1994. The artist is in excellent form throughout. His acoustic guitar is the perfect backdrop for his smoky voice. The songs ... see all copies from $15.61! new only from $15.61!
9	In a Heartbeat (2001) more music like this by Chuck Loeb Chuck Loeb's guitar playing sparkles with energy on this jazzy album released by the Shanachie record label. The concept for the album came from Loeb's contemplation of his own minor heart murmur and the rhythms of the human heartbeat. A deeply personal project, it features contributions from his family as well as musicians Mark Egan and Vinnie ... see all copies from $13.74! new only from $13.74!
10	Sweatbox: Spoken Word 1987-1988 [Quarterstick] (1989) more music like this by Henry Rollins This two-disc set of Henry Rollins' spoken word performances from 1987 and 1988 is typically engaging, showcasing his sharp wit and ability to interact with his audience. Hitting on topics as distanced as masturbation and David Letterman, the former Black Flag frontman goes into each of his rants with equal gusto, and proves himself to be a great ... see all copies from $5.87!
11 view cover	Handprints (1991) more music like this by Ray Barretto Percussionist Ray Barretto, best-known as a sideman, had a rare chance to lead a session in 1991 and his Concord Picante debut is quite impressive. With saxophonist Steve Slagle, trumpeter Tim Ouimette and trombonist Barry Olson leading the frontline of this septet, Barretto mostly sticks to group originals for an infectious Latin jazz session. ... see all copies from $20.96!
12 view cover	Anywhere But Here [Expanded] (2002) more music like this by The Ataris The Ataris arrived on the pop-punk scene in an "emo"-tional way with Anywhere but Here. Echoing the likes of Green Day, the Ramones, and the Vandals (whose guitarist Warren Fitzgerald produced the album, and whose founder, Joe Escalante, signed them to Kung Fu), the Ataris put an upbeat spin on their social instabilities. Kris Rowe sings of young ... see all copies from $9.81! new only from $9.81!
13 view cover	Anyway the Wind Blows: The Anthology (1997) more music like this by J.J. Cale Although it is a little too extensive for casual fans, the double-disc, 50-track Anyway the Wind Blows: The Anthology is a definitive retrospective of J.J. Cale's career, featuring all the highlights over the years. Cale's albums often sound similar, but they are remarkably uneven in terms of quality, which is what makes Anyway the Wind Blows ... see all copies from $26.43! new only from $26.43!
14 view cover	Meet Me at the Crux [Wounded Bird] [Bonus Tracks] (2007) more music like this by Dirk Hamilton Dirk Hamilton's first recording for Elektra Records, Meet Me at the Crux, expands on the promise of his sporadically brilliant first two releases. This time out, with a core band providing solid backing throughout, Hamilton achieves a cohesive sound to support his material, which -- as always -- can be biting, sensitive, strange, and funny. Tales ... see all copies from $9.85! new only from $9.85!
15 view cover	Webster Hall's Tranzworld Allstars, Vol. 4 (2003) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $6.95!
16 view cover	Don't Be Scared, Vol. 2 (2002) more music like this by Various Artists This twenty-two track compilation serves as a sampler of pop-punk labels Fearless and its current roster of bands. Each of the eleven bands get two songs apiece with a few rarities and previously unreleased tracks scattered throughout. The bands are a mix of Fearless stalwarts like Lonely Kings, Bigwig and Keepsake as well as bands new to the ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
17 view cover	Negro Color (2004) more music like this by Tania Libertad While Peruvian native (and now Mexican resident) Tania Libertad focuses on Afro-Peruvian music on this release, don't expect anything highly rhythmic, or even reminiscent of countrywoman Susana Baca. Instead she forges her own, often contemplative route, whether on the lovely "Dos Gardenias" or the sweet, gentle pop of "Anda Mareado." She's a ... see all copies from $9.25! new only from $12.04!
18 view cover	Tango! The Dance That Swept the World! (1992) more music like this by Various Artists Released in 1992, Pearl Flapper's Tango! The Dance That Swept the World! compilation celebrates the grand tradition of a passionate music and dance form that flourished in Buenos Aires during the first half of the 20th century, with 22 vintage recordings made between January 1932 and June 1940, a period during which the tango became enormously ... see all copies from $4.48! new only from $15.30!
19 view cover	Big Rock'n Beats (1997) more music like this by Various Artists TVT's 1997 electronica compilation spotlights mainly British producers, featuring names both well-known as well as obscure. Fatboy Slim, Bentley Rhythm Ace, Meat Beat Manifesto and Jedi Knights represent, with uptempo tracks which push all the right buttons for rock fans but may leave electronic listeners a bit bored, while the Chemical Brothers ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $2.00!
20 view cover	Surfin' to Baja (2004) more music like this by The Ventures With a 40-year recording history, the Ventures are the most successful instrumental band in pop history. Although their heyday in the U.S. was in the early '60s, peaking with the surf music craze, they have continued to have hits abroad, particularly in Japan, where their summer tours are legendary events. A lot of the Ventures' releases have been ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $9.32!
21 view cover	Unglorious Hallelujah (2006) more music like this by Chip Taylor The latest album from Chip Taylor is actually a double disc: one disc of more carefully crafted works (Unglorious Hallelujah), and one of more spur-of-the-moment creations (Red, Red Rose & Other Songs of Love, Pain & Destruction). Both are quite good, straightforward singer/songwriter-esque pieces with a heavy dose of blues and folk mixed in. The ... see all copies from $3.79! new only from $5.51!
22 view cover	Santa Cruz (2002) more music like this by The Thrills see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
23 view cover	Voodoo (1987) more music like this by The Dirty Dozen Brass Band The Dirty Dozen Brass Band certainly knew how to have a good time while playing their music. Their spirited blending of New Orleans jazz parade rhythms with R&B-ish horn riffs made them flexible enough to welcome guests Dr. John (who sings and play piano on "It's All Over Now"), Dizzy Gillespie ("Ooh-Pop-A-Dah"), and Branford Marsalis ("Moose the ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
24 view cover	Musical Traditions of Portugal (1994) by Various Artists This fine though slightly eccentric collection ranges from frame-drum-backed rural dances and songs to Coimbra-style guitarra portuguesa instrumentals, with several cuts in the rancho folclórico revivalist tradition. There's no vocal fado, nor (more of an omission) guitar-backed rural music. The extremely thorough and well-done notes come in a 78 ... see all copies from $11.61! new only from $15.11!
25 view cover	20 Grandes Exitos (1994) more music like this by Horacio Guarany see all copies from $2.60! new only from $3.93!
