1	In Times Like These (2007) more music like this by Arlo Guthrie with the University of Kentucky Symphony Orchestra If Arlo Guthrie has always been viewed as the embodiment of a kind of starry-eyed hippie optimism only slightly undercut by a strain of black humor, there has also always been a more thoughtful, spiritual, and even somewhat gloomy side to him that has come out on some of the songs he's written for his albums. It's a less prominent aspect of his ... see all copies from $20.70! new only from $20.70!
2	900 Miles (2006) more music like this by Bethany & Rufus The first thing that comes to mind when listening to this fascinating folk duo -- vocalist Bethany Yarrow, daughter of folk legend Peter Yarrow, and veteran five-string cellist Rufus Cappadocia -- is a slightly darker and more gritty Tuck & Patti, mostly due to the sparse production and Yarrow's compelling, low husky tones. But while Tuck & Patti ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $14.95!
3	Rise (2006) more music like this by Chris Thomas King New Orleans musician Chris Thomas King lost both a home and a recording studio when Hurricane Katrina had landfall at the close of summer in 2005, and it's hardly startling that his album Rise takes Katrina and the devastating aftermath of the storm as a central theme. The result is a tremendously elegiac outing, and even when King goes up-tempo, ... see all copies from $10.32! new only from $10.32!
4	The Elektra Years (2004) more music like this by Josh White Josh White had a long and varied career, beginning as a session guitarist in the 1920s, then had his own run of stellar blues 78s for Paramount and Columbia in the 1930s, becoming a cabaret bluesman in New York in the 1940s, only to be blacklisted as the McCarthy era dawned, which led to his association with Jac Holzman's fledgling Elektra label ... see all copies from $42.58! new only from $42.58!
5	Old Town School of Folk Music Songbook, Vol. 1 (2006) more music like this by Various Artists What Old Town School of Folk Music Songbook, Vol. 1 looks like at first is yet another of those Smithsonian/Folkways collections of recordings from the Great Folk Scare of the late 1950s and '60s: on the cover is a group of earnest, young urban kids sitting in a small circle, one with an acoustic guitar, all intently studying what can only be the ... see all copies from $14.19! new only from $14.19!
6	Arlo Guthrie - Live in Sydney (2005) more music like this by Arlo Guthrie Arlo Guthrie's first album came out in 1967, the unassuming and charming Alice's Restaurant, and what is truly remarkable is how fully formed his approach to music was right from the start. Maybe more than any other singer and songwriter of his generation, Arlo instinctively understood the value of deliberate and informed nostalgia, which has kept ... see all copies from $20.57! new only from $20.57!
7	American Favorite Ballads, Vol. 5 (1962) more music like this by Pete Seeger see all copies from $9.25! new only from $14.50!
8	Gratefully Dead 1964-1968 (2004) more music like this by The Animals Sidestepping the horrendous title, Gratefully Dead 1964-1968, it's nice to see an Animals compilation that digs a bit deeper into their catalog, album tracks, B-sides, and curios, as opposed to rehashing the same old hits ad nauseam. The first ten tracks are mainly covers of blues and R&B tunes that were staples in the early Animals repertoire ... see all copies from $19.01! new only from $19.01!
9	Chickenhead Blues (2004) more music like this by Rick Tobey see all copies from $10.98! new only from $10.98!
10	Clarinet Road, Vol. 1: The Road to New Orleans (2003) more music like this by Evan Christopher see all copies from $13.31! new only from $13.31!
11 view cover	Ramblin' Man (2005) more music like this by Isobel Campbell/Mark Lanegan The pairing of sweet Isobel Campbell and sour Mark Lanegan looks weird on paper, but it actually works fairly well on this short EP. Campbell handles the production and music, she and Lanegan both contribute vocals, and their deceptively ramshackle cover of Hank Williams' "Ramblin' Man" that gives the record its title lopes along woozily, Lanegan ... see all copies from $4.37! new only from $4.37!
