1	Hop High (2005) more music like this by Crooked Still Crooked Still isn't reinventing anything on its debut album, which is full of traditional country songs like "Darling Corey," "Shady Grove," and "Flora" (aka "The Lily of the West"), and some familiar copyrighted ones, such as Robert Johnson's "Last Fair Deal Gone Down" and Albert E. Brumley's "Rank Stranger." To the extent there is anything ... see all copies from $15.98! new only from $15.98!
2	If Ever I Return (1997) more music like this by Connie Dover Connie Dover has a voice that rings like a crystal bell. Whether singing cowboy songs or forlorn Irish love ballads, she can make angels appear and dance in your head. But while critics across the country have rhapsodized about her voice, what is often overlooked is her ability to write strikingly beautiful original music in traditional idioms (an ... see all copies from $13.22! new only from $13.22!
3	The Essential Doc Watson (1973) more music like this by Doc Watson It's a measure of how succinct Doc Watson's interpretations of traditional music are that this 26-song collection is one of the few Vanguard double-LP compilations to make it onto CD completely intact, with no songs eliminated, and it still clocks in at under 70 minutes. It's also one of the better sounding of the Welk Music Group's mid-'80s CD ... see all copies from $10.00! new only from $14.22!
4	Legacy (2002) more music like this by Doc Watson Anyone who has developed a deep love for Doc Watson will be elated by this three-disc biographical journey through his life and music. Two discs are devoted to conversations between Watson and longtime friend David Holt, in which Doc recalls his youth, his early career, and his tours with son Merle. Scattered throughout the interview are intimate ... see all copies from $27.77! new only from $27.77!
5	The Pizza Tapes (2000) more music like this by Jerry Garcia/David Grisman/Tony Rice Jerry Garcia and David Grisman released two albums on the latter's Acoustic Disc label during the last years of Garcia's life, and since his death in 1995, Grisman has culled a series of albums from other sessions the two recorded together. Shady Grove (1996) presented traditional folk and country material, while So What (1998) contained jazz ... see all copies from $15.65! new only from $15.65!
6	Shady Grove (1996) more music like this by Jerry Garcia & David Grisman In the last five years of his life, Jerry Garcia frequently dropped in on his old friend, mandolin player David Grisman, to play and record the kind of folk, bluegrass, and old-timey music they had both begun their careers with in the early '60s. Grisman released two Garcia/Grisman albums on his Acoustic Disc label during Garcia's lifetime, and ... see all copies from $8.47! new only from $13.00!
7	Sings Songs for Little Pickers (1990) more music like this by Doc Watson Songs for Little Pickers is a wonderful live recording of Doc Watson performing family material that he remembers singing as a child in North Carolina. Thom Owens, All Music Guide see all copies from $9.27! new only from $14.79!

10	Memories (1975) more music like this by Doc Watson Twenty-two songs originally recorded by Doc Watson (with Merle Watson producing in association with Chuck Cochran) for Capitol/EMI in the mid-'70s, a life-retrospective including traditional numbers like "Shady Grove" and A.P. Carter's "Wabash Cannonball," Jimmie Rodgers' "In the Jailhouse," and the old jug band standard "Mama Don't Allow No Music ... see all copies from $12.00!
11 view cover	Americana Roots Songbook: Man of Constant Sorrow (2002) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $2.35! new only from $3.25!
12 view cover	Quartet (2006) more music like this by Peter Rowan/Tony Rice Allowing Peter Rowan and Tony Rice to front a small acoustic band is a shortcut to creating a bluegrass-folk supergroup. Few bluegrass-folk vocalists achieve Rowan's rich, resonant delivery, and while he's certainly a "good" singer, he maintains weathered edges that make him a good (read "authentic") folksinger. Rice's guitar style, equally ... see all copies from $15.98! new only from $15.98!
13 view cover	The Best of Doc Watson: 1964-1968 (1999) more music like this by Doc Watson Boasting 23 tracks (three unreleased) culled from six of Watson's classic Vanguard albums, The Best of Doc Watson 1964-1968 is a great summing up of the music he made during that period and a perfect testament to his standing as a true American musical treasure. Showcasing the amazing depth of ability that Watson has made his trademark, this ... see all copies from $14.22! new only from $14.22!
14 view cover	Original Folkways Recordings: 1960-1962 (1994) more music like this by Doc Watson & Clarence Ashley This important release documents the rediscovery of banjoist and comedian Clarence (Tom) Ashley in the early '60s, and the simultaneous introduction of a young and then-unknown guitar picker, the astounding Doc Watson. Ashley was one of the many musicians of the '20s and '30s whose early work appeared briefly on Harry Smith's 1952 Anthology of ... see all copies from $22.28! new only from $22.28!
15 view cover	Willow (2004) more music like this by Misty River see all copies from $13.57! new only from $13.57!
16 view cover	33 Acoustic Guitar Instrumentals (2000) more music like this by Clarence White Clarence White's guitar playing was captured on a number of albums and in a variety of styles between the mid-'60s and his early death in 1973. Still, one cannot help but listen to the Kentucky Colonels Appalachian Swing! and want to hear more of White's fine acoustic work. Now, on 33 Acoustic Guitar Instrumentals, one can. These recordings were ... see all copies from $11.15! new only from $11.15!
17 view cover	Hits (2001) more music like this by Dominic Chianese There can't be too many 70-year-old singers making their recording debuts, but Dominic Chianese has the advantage of a featured role on a hit television series, The Sopranos, on which he plays semi-retired Mob boss Uncle Junior. As it happens, Chianese also has a lengthy career behind him in both acting and singing, and one gets a good sense of ... see all copies from $32.99! new only from $32.99!
18 view cover	Songs of the South: Farther Along (2004) more music like this by Various Artists This 18-song set from Time Life has a timeless, unhurried grace about it, and even though it is a compilation of various artists, it has a remarkably unified tone, as artists as diverse as Johnny Cash and Doc Watson tackle classic Southern folk songs with elegant reverence. Among the highlights here are Jerry Garcia and David Grisman's "Shady ... see all copies from $13.51! new only from $13.51!

20 view cover	Rising Tide (1994) more music like this by Chesapeake see all copies from $7.69! new only from $14.42!
21 view cover	Vanguard Visionaries (2007) more music like this by Doc Watson Founded in 1950 by brothers Seymour Solomon and Maynard Solomon just as the LP format was taking hold (it had been introduced to the market two years previously), Vanguard Records took full advantage of the longer playing time afforded and began life as a classical label, moving easily into jazz, then gospel, bluegrass, blues, and folk (as Joan ... see all copies from $9.73! new only from $9.73!
22 view cover	Dr. Banjo Steps Out (1978) more music like this by Peter Wernick Dr. Banjo really steps out on this one. Introducing flute, synthesizer, and a whole host of trippy studio effects into a bluegrass album was pretty progressive for the mid-'70s (even in an era where John Hartford and New Grass Revival were pushing the boundaries), and Pete Wernick uses the emerging technology to progress even further. Excellent ... see all copies from $9.29! new only from $9.29!
23 view cover	Treasures & Tears (1990) more music like this by Rhonda Rucker & Sparky Rucker Those listening to Leadbelly for the first time might find themselves asking, "Is he rural blues or is he folk?"--and truth be told, he is both. Similarly, Treasures and Tears is a CD that has as much to do with acoustic country blues as it does with folk. Forming a duo, the interracial team of singer/acoustic guitarist James "Sparky" Rucker and ... see all copies from $12.95! new only from $14.74!
24 view cover	The Best of the Bluegrass Tradition (2002) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $15.12! new only from $17.41!

Guitarist Clarence White, mandolinist Roland White, banjo player Billy Ray ... see all copies from $14.22! new only from $14.22!
