1	Confessions [Bonus Tracks] (2004) more music like this by Usher Confessions' most detracting factor is its length. At an hour in duration, it could be stripped of five songs and be far more powerful, especially since no one would have to do any wading to get to the meaty parts. On the other side of the coin, the smartest move Usher makes here is in allowing the Lil Jon-produced "Yeah!" to take its rightful ... see all copies from $4.98! new only from $13.59!
2	WOW Hits 2004 (2003) more music like this by Various Artists Much like the Now That's What I Call Music! series, Wow Hits uses the far-reaching power of a multi-imprint major label (in this case, EMI Christian Music Group) to secure hits that span every genre of CCM. Over two discs and 30 songs (plus three bonus tracks), Wow Hits 2004 highlights everything from alternative and dance-pop to tasteful adult ... see all copies from $2.25! new only from $19.13!
3	Simple Things (2001) more music like this by Zero 7 Forget the rampant labeling of Zero 7 as the "British Air," because Simple Things is a debut album that stands on its own as a chilled, subtle collection of organic songs. There are hints of Air, but there are equally relevant comparisons that might be made with Morcheeba, Rae & Christian, Nightmares on Wax, and early Massive Attack. Indeed, after ... see all copies from $12.00! new only from $16.06!
4	Greatest Hits (2004) more music like this by Jim Brickman Fans of the subtle, atmospheric and highly melodic contemporary intrumental composer will enjoy this thirteen-track collection of (pre-2003) career highlights, but those looking for a more comprehensive compilation should pick up Windham Hill's excellent 2006 overview, Pure Jim Brickman. [This Greatest Hits release contains two bonus tracks.] ... see all copies from $12.75! new only from $12.75!
5	Dirty Vegas (2002) more music like this by Dirty Vegas Capitalizing on the nearly ubiquitous "Days Go By" (courtesy of a Mitsubishi auto advertisement), the Dirty Vegas trio released their self-titled debut in mid-2002. The album is largely made up of rocktronica, but just consider the band's crossover potential; it's conceivable this album could be accepted by fans of Paul Oakenfold, the Verve, and ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $15.65!
6	Simple Things (2003) more music like this by Amy Grant After a painfully long six years since Amy Grant's last pop album (she released a collection of gospel hymns in 2002), the prolific singer/songwriter returns to the pop/rock fold with the candid and thoughtful Simple Things. Producers Keith Thomas, Brown Bannister, and Wayne Kirkpatrick give Grant a wonderful blueprint to build from, which she ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $11.13!
7	Confessions (2004) more music like this by Usher Confessions' most detracting factor is its length. At an hour in duration, it could be stripped of five songs and be far more powerful, especially since no one would have to do any wading to get to the meaty parts. On the other side of the coin, the smartest move Usher makes here is in allowing the Lil Jon-produced "Yeah!" to take its rightful ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $8.25!
8	Capitol Gold: The Best of Minnie Riperton (1993) more music like this by Minnie Riperton Until 1999's Free Soul (Capitol) and 2001's exhaustive but more excellent overall Petals (The Right Stuff) came along, Capitol Gold offered the best summation of this true original's horribly undervalued solo career. As with Free Soul, Capitol Gold leaves a significant gap by excluding the best moments from Minnie Riperton's debut (Come to My ... see all copies from $6.62! new only from $10.79!
9	Simple Things (2001) more music like this by Jim Brickman Fans of Jim Brickman usually love him for what he does best, simple, lush, romantic solo piano music. Recent recordings like Visions of Love and Gift have attempted to add layers to that base by adding orchestration or soaring vocals to the mix, but such things can muddle the purity of the music. Simple Things marks the return to Brickman's ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $13.53!
10	Time Again: Amy Grant Live All Access (2006) more music like this by Amy Grant Time Again: Amy Grant Live is more than a memory piece; it is a shared experience. Returning to Fort Worth's Bass Hall, where she played her first paid gig in 1978, Grant manages to make even her most popular hits accessible on an individual level. The track list reads like a Billboard collection of chart-toppers, to which even those who are the ... see all copies from $2.95! new only from $2.95!
11 view cover	Dismiss the Mystery (2006) more music like this by Salvador see all copies from $4.00! new only from $9.49!
12 view cover	Spin (2005) more music like this by Steve Cole With his trademark robust, in-your-face horn textures, the Chicago-based funky smooth jazz saxman has the rare genre gift of instant recognizability. That same energy sets the vibe on his spiffy, in the pocket Narada Jazz debut , but with a unique twist. Rather than sticking with the heavy urban flavors of the discs that made him an instrumental ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $15.65!
13 view cover	It Can Happen to Anyone (2007) more music like this by Elisabeth Withers Elisabeth Withers may not be a household name yet, but there's a great chance she will be. It Can Happen to Anyone is her Blue Note debut (and reveals just how much the label's focus has shifted away from jazz since the runaway success of Norah Jones). Withers won a Tony Award for her role as Shugg Avery in the Oprah Winfrey Broadway production of ... see all copies from $4.90! new only from $6.25!
14 view cover	World Outside My Window (2002) more music like this by Glenn Lewis Some reviewers seemed to fixate on the fact that 'Don't You Forget It' the lead single from Glenn Lewis' album World Outside My Window recalls Stevie Wonder circa Talking Book.If Lewis were trying to surreptitiously channel Stevie,there wouldn't be a scene in the single's music video where he is spread out on the floor with his head between the LP ... see all copies from $5.11! new only from $5.11!
15 view cover	Hey Hey My My Yo Yo [US Bonus Disc] (2005) more music like this by Junior Senior Junior Senior's second album is a dour, measured affair that pits subdued instrumentation against introspective lyrics and restrained vocals. Now, you didn't believe that, did you? As with their debut, Hey Hey My My Yo Yo is a Technicolor blaze of maximalist glory packed with over-the-top vocals, nonsense lyrics, woozy performances and dancefloor ... see all copies from $3.60! new only from $14.95!
16 view cover	Confidence (2003) more music like this by Christophe Beck see all copies from $9.54! new only from $16.84!
17 view cover	Up (1992) more music like this by Right Said Fred If you've never heard anything by Right Said Fred apart from their worldwide mega-hit "I'm Too Sexy," then you are missing out on one of the best dance-pop bands of this generation. To base your opinion of the band on that one song is like judging the Beatles' entire catalog by repeated listenings to a song like "Yellow Submarine." Sure, it's fun ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $2.99!
18 view cover	Cheetah-licious Christmas (2005) more music like this by The Cheetah Girls Adrienne Bailon, Sabrina Bryan, and Kiely Williams -- no Raven Symoné this time around -- kick off the Cheetah Girls' Cheetah-licious Christmas by adding some contemporary swagger to the usual seasonal album chatter. "Hey Cheetahs!" one of them says as bells chime in the background. "What's up?" and "Hey girl!" the others answer back. "Guess what? ... see all copies from $2.54! new only from $8.17!
19 view cover	Greatest Hits 1986-2004 (2004) more music like this by Amy Grant It may be hard to believe, but A&M/UTV's 2004 release Greatest Hits 1986-2004 is the first compilation of Amy Grant's to be released since 1986's The Collection. In that time, she went from CCM to secular pop music and back again, scoring several big hits in the late '80s and early '90s. Appropriately, that era dominates Greatest Hits, with a ... see all copies from $2.00! new only from $3.29!
20 view cover	Billy Dean (1991) more music like this by Billy Dean Billy Dean's second album follows the same pattern that made his first so popular: a strong emphasis on the ballads on which his supple baritone thrives. The rollicking "Hammer Down" flies in the face of everything else, but even there the message remains the same: obvious but effective. Brian Mansfield, All Music Guide see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
21 view cover	Greatest Hits [EMI] (1998) more music like this by Joe Cocker see all copies from $2.60! new only from $8.01!
22 view cover	Global Underground: Shanghai (2005) more music like this by Nick Warren see all copies from $18.80! new only from $18.80!
23 view cover	Scatterlings (1982) more music like this by Juluka A supergroup that defied racial barriers in their South African homeland, Juluka's album Scatterlings was the first introduction to the band for many Americans. Led by lead singer Johnny Clegg, Scatterlings featured Juluka's blend of African and Western rhythms, melodies, and instrumentation. Clegg delivered his self-penned lyrics in a warm voice ... see all copies from $8.00!
24 view cover	10 Years (2006) more music like this by Armin van Buuren see all copies from $17.62! new only from $17.62!
25 view cover	American Heartbreak (2006) more music like this by American Heartbreak Much like they have for the entire history of what is commonly considered glam rock, the New York Dolls exercise a massive influence over San Francisco's American Heartbreak -- a band whose authentic interpretations of the style border on almost museum-like studiousness. That's not to say that the band lacks spontaneity (well, just a little bit) ... see all copies from $14.22! new only from $14.22!
