1	Still on Top: The Greatest Hits (2007) more music like this by Van Morrison There are 21 cuts on this Hip-O collection of Van Morrison's Greatest Hits. The interesting thing is that of these 21 cuts, only about half of them will be recognizable to the casual Van Morrison fan, as they come from his Bang sides and the far more popular Warner Brothers singles of the early '70s. As it should be, although there is one glaring ... see all copies from $6.97! new only from $12.94!
2	The Best of Van Morrison [Mercury] (1990) more music like this by Van Morrison For an artist who's doggedly album-oriented, plus a songwriter who revels in subtlety, Van Morrison doesn't seem like a logical candidate for a successful greatest-hits compilation. Nevertheless, The Best of Van Morrison is a crackerjack compilation, tracing Van the Man from his days with Them, through his best-known tunes ("Brown-Eyed Girl," ... see all copies from $3.00! new only from $14.38!
3	Sea Change (2002) more music like this by Beck Beck has always been known for his ever-changing moods -- particularly since they often arrived one after another on one album, sometimes within one song -- yet the shift between the neon glitz of Midnite Vultures and the lush, somber Sea Change is startling, and not just because it finds him in full-on singer/songwriter mode, abandoning all of ... see all copies from $6.29! new only from $13.42!
4	Into the Music (1979) more music like this by Van Morrison Into the Music may not seem like a great Van Morrison record, one of his very best, upon first listen, especially if you're trying to compare it to such masterpieces as Astral Weeks and Moondance, or even Tupelo Honey. Yet this is certainly one of his best records, one that is quietly winning and thoroughly ingratiating, sounding stronger, even ... see all copies from $6.98! new only from $11.86!
5	Mule Variations (1999) more music like this by Tom Waits Tom Waits grew steadily less prolific after redefining himself as a junkyard noise poet with Swordfishtrombones, but the five-year wait between The Black Rider and 1999's Mule Variations was the longest yet. Given the fact that Waits decided to abandon major labels for the California indie Epitaph, Mule Variations would seem like a golden ... see all copies from $7.58! new only from $10.19!
6	Blue Valentine (1978) more music like this by Tom Waits Two welcome changes in style made Blue Valentine a fresh listening experience for Tom Waits fans. First, Waits alters the instrumentation, bringing in electric guitar and keyboards and largely dispensing with the strings for a more blues-oriented, hard-edged sound. Second, though his world view remains fixed on the lowlifes of the late night, he ... see all copies from $13.78! new only from $13.78!
7	Michael: Music from the Motion Picture (1996) more music like this by Various Artists The soundtrack to Michael features a few angel-themed hits scattered amongst traditional hits by Don Henley, Aretha Franklin, Willie Nelson, Al Green, the Mavericks, Van Morrison. Keith Farley, All Music Guide see all copies from $2.78! new only from $11.86!
8	At the Movies: Soundtrack Hits (2007) more music like this by Van Morrison Van Morrison's music has always been evocative of time, place, and a range of emotions, so it's natural that many a film director has chosen his songs for soundtrack purposes. This collection of 19 Morrison recordings that have been placed either prominently or subliminally in films spans his career, from his earliest sides with Them ("Gloria," ... see all copies from $3.96! new only from $3.96!
9	Gone Wanderin' (2002) more music like this by Jackie Greene With an unforced comfort unusual among new, young artists on small indie labels, 21-year-old Jackie Greene offered an impressive batch of above-average Americana roots rock on this 2002 release. There's a world-weariness to his songs that might not seem fully earned given his age. But he sounds like he's feeling the emotions authentically enough, ... see all copies from $15.48! new only from $15.48!
10	Lucinda Williams [Bonus Tracks] (1988) more music like this by Lucinda Williams Lucinda Williams took eight years to write and record her second album of original songs. While some producers and record executives have said that she is difficult to work with, one can never argue with the finished product. She crafts each song meticulously and deftly blends country, blues, and folk to create a unique sound that cannot be ... see all copies from $35.95!
11 view cover	Pink Cadillac (1979) more music like this by John Prine John Prine went to Sam Phillips' studio in Memphis to make his sixth album, Pink Cadillac, and got some of the Sun Records sound of 1950s rockabilly on a record produced by Phillips' sons Knox and Jerry. (Sam produced two of the tracks himself.) Slapback bass here, a Bo Diddley beat there, and an overall loose feel characterized music that may ... see all copies from $4.99! new only from $11.66!
12 view cover	Heaven Bound: The Best of Bluegrass Gospel [1 CD] (2003) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $15.58! new only from $15.58!
13 view cover	Still in Hollywood (1994) more music like this by Concrete Blonde With their brief moment of commercial success having long since faded, Concrete Blonde had essentially split by the time this collection was released. For fans, it's a well-conceived treat, gathering together many of the band's non-album tracks (although most had been available as B-sides). There's really not a track that won't be a delight to the ... see all copies from $8.75! new only from $10.99!
14 view cover	The Best of Smokie [BMG] (2004) more music like this by Smokie This three-disc budget-priced (and packaged) set of material from Yorkshire-based pop/rock outfit Smokie may appeal more to European listeners than the U.S market, where the band never managed to climb high enough chart-wise to develop the kind of following that similarly themed acts like America, the Hollies, and Bread did. They did, however, ... see all copies from $21.67! new only from $21.67!
15 view cover	Used Songs (1973-1980) (2001) more music like this by Tom Waits Rhino's fine 16-track collection Used Songs (1973-1980) chronicles Tom Waits' first seven albums, all recorded for Asylum Records. This contains pretty much all his staples from the '70s -- "Heartattack and Vine," "Burma Shave," "Ol' 55," "Jersey Girl," "(Looking For) The Heart of Saturday Night," and "Tom Traubert's Blues" among them -- sequenced ... see all copies from $16.52! new only from $16.52!
16 view cover	Katrina Elam (2004) more music like this by Katrina Elam With her eponymous first album, Katrina Elam delivers a likeable, promising contemporary country debut. While she's a little too firmly in sway to the Nashville music machine -- who have helped smooth out any rough edges in her music, making it go down easy and getting it ready for the radio -- she shows some flair as a writer, with sturdy ... see all copies from $3.09! new only from $3.09!
17 view cover	Greatest Hits, Vol. 1 (2001) more music like this by Blue Rodeo After 15 years as one of Canada's most lauded and consistently popular bands, Blue Rodeo offers their first hits package. A two-disc live album, Just Like a Vacation, released in 1999, covered a lot of ground but went a bit too deep for casual fans. Two extras are added, a far too sluggish version of the Bee Gee's "You Don't Know What It's Like" ... see all copies from $16.06! new only from $16.06!
18 view cover	Duke Robillard's World Full of Blues (2007) more music like this by Duke Robillard see all copies from $14.78! new only from $14.78!
19 view cover	The Nashville Acoustic Sessions (2004) more music like this by Raul Malo True to its title, The Nashville Acoustic Sessions is a set of acoustic-based music that finds the Mavericks frontman Raul Malo collaborating with three well-respected Nashville musicians (guitarist/mandolinist Pat Flynn, Rob Ickes, and bassist Dave Pomeroy). The acoustic setting results in much more pared-down arrangements than Malo's recent ... see all copies from $6.85! new only from $14.04!
20 view cover	Dig Years 2001-2005 (2007) more music like this by Jackie Greene see all copies from $15.28! new only from $15.28!
21 view cover	The Philosopher's Stone (1998) more music like this by Van Morrison Van Morrison has always been a prolific artist, releasing nearly an album a year for 30 years. All the while, he had a stockpile of unreleased material in the vaults, much of which became legendary among collectors. A selection of this material was planned for inclusion in a box set, but when he realized the sheer amount of worthy material, he ... see all copies from $6.45!
22 view cover	Scarred But Smarter (1986) more music like this by Drivin' N' Cryin' A strong debut from the Atlanta rock band that is by no means mired in the dodgy, processed production sounds that marred so many records released in this period. A cross between punky hard rock and bluegrass, the band would later refine their direction, but the title track and "Another Scarlet Butterfly" are great showcases for songwriter Kinney ... see all copies from $19.94!
23 view cover	Great Days: The John Prine Anthology (1993) more music like this by John Prine Rhino's Great Days: The John Prine Anthology is an excellent summary of John Prine's prime period, from his sublime 1971 eponymous debut to 1991's Missing Years. This (appropriately) draws heavily from his early recordings (including the aforementioned debut), but it also does a terrific job of finding songs on uneven albums, while giving weight ... see all copies from $23.81! new only from $23.81!
24	Version of the Truth (1990) more music like this by Foster & Lloyd see all copies from $1.99! new only from $4.98!
25 view cover	Of Rivers & Religion/After The Ball (2004) more music like this by John Fahey This German Warner Bros. reissue is a nice repackaging of the late John Fahey's 1972 album Of Rivers & Religion and his wonderfully genteel 1973 release After the Ball from his all too brief sojourn with the label. These recordings represent a shift for Fahey, playing both solo and with an ensemble. On Of Rivers & Religion, the ensemble included ... see all copies from $19.19! new only from $19.19!
