1	Avalon Blues: The Complete 1928 Okeh Recordings (1996) more music like this by Mississippi John Hurt Mississippi John Hurt's latter-day recordings after his rediscovery have somewhat obscured the importance of these debut sides -- the ones that made his rediscovery an idea initially worth pursuing. Archival recordings such as Avalon Blues: The Complete 1928 Okeh Recordings are the collector's items that made his rep in the first place, and stand ... see all copies from $7.84! new only from $7.84!
2	1928 Sessions (1988) more music like this by Mississippi John Hurt The 13 original 1928 recordings of Hurt. Justifiably legendary, with gentle grace and power on these understated vocal and fingerpicking masterpieces. These are the ones to hear, although all Hurt is worth listening to. Michael Erlewine, All Music Guide see all copies from $10.86! new only from $10.86!
3	The Rough Guide to Delta Blues (2002) more music like this by Various Artists A fantastic compilation that really does span the length of Mississippi Delta blues, from the early days of the Mississippi Sheiks and Charley Patton (with the classic "High Water Everywhere Part One") through to the modern but equally rooted sounds of Asie Payton, R.L. Burnside, and the late Junior Kimbrough. And it's every bit as thorough in ... see all copies from $13.42! new only from $13.42!
4	The Roots of Taj Mahal (2000) more music like this by Various Artists An interesting concept to say the least, here's an exemplary collection of blues tunes all covered by Taj Mahal at one point or another. But here's the original versions of classics by Robert Johnson, Blind Willie Johnson, Blind Willie McTell, Leadbelly, Sleepy John Estes, Son House, Washboard Sam, Sonny Boy Williamson, and Blind Boy Fuller and ... see all copies from $14.56! new only from $14.56!
5	Legend (1997) more music like this by Mississippi John Hurt These 14 songs were recorded in 1963 and 1964; material from these sessions appeared briefly on Canada's Rebel label, as well as Piedmont. The mood is late-night informal, although there's little, if anything, in the Hurt catalog that could not be called informal. Hurt's originals are dotted with standards like "See See Rider," "Do Lord Remember ... see all copies from $14.83! new only from $17.79!
6	The Blues [Blue City] (1993) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $23.99!
7	The Story of the Blues [CBS/Columbia] (1995) more music like this by Various Artists When writer and blues scholar Paul Oliver first came along, the genre he specialized in was something of a mystery to the music audience. Young listeners hearing the Rolling Stones do an old Delta blues number on the group's very first record usually thought this was some kind of original concept, not a tribute to a great Afro-American art form ... see all copies from $15.96!
8	Blues: Gold Collection (1998) more music like this by Various Artists While longtime blues fans will find little of interest here, listeners new to the music may discover a wealth of classics in this budget-line compilation, a 14-track collection featuring two entries apiece from giants like Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf, Mississippi John Hurt and Elmore James. Although the fidelity varies wildly from track to track, ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
9	Memorial Anthology (1993) more music like this by Mississippi John Hurt Mississippi John Hurt's mid-'60s performances were usually distinctive and sometimes staggering. His guitar work was crisp, attractive and frequently brilliant, although his vocals were the real hook. Hurt's narratives, storytelling ability and general communicative powers were at their peak on this two-CD set, which has languished in a vault for ... see all copies from $23.69! new only from $23.69!
10	Before the Blues, Vol. 1: The Early American Black Music Scene (1996) more music like this by Various Artists Although the blues is the most renowned form of early 20th century African-American music (other than jazz), it didn't dominate rural Black music to the extent that many listeners often assume. Black and White folk musics mingled extensively before the advent of recorded technology, and Black musicians often performed gospel, religious hymns, folk ... see all copies from $16.21! new only from $16.21!
11 view cover	Giants of Country Blues, Vol. 1 (1927-1938) (1998) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $17.41! new only from $17.41!
12 view cover	The Early Blues Roots of Bob Dylan (2000) more music like this by Various Artists The Blues Roots of Bob Dylan collects Dylan's early heroes of the genre, including Sleepy John Estes, Blind Willie McTell, Mississippi John Hurt, Leadbelly, and Bo Carter. These 20 remastered tracks are an excellent sampling of predominantly country blues from the '30s. While listening to these originals, it becomes obvious that Dylan didn't ... see all copies from $10.54! new only from $10.54!
13 view cover	Broke, Black and Blue [Box] (1999) more music like this by Various Artists This four-disc, 100-track box set differs from most blues compendiums on a number of fronts. For openers, it focuses on the first 20 years of blues recordings, from 1924's "Barrelhouse Blues" by Ed Andrews to 1946's "Rhythm Mama" by Johnny Temple. Second, even though there are entries from artists like Blind Blake, Mississippi John Hurt, Son House ... see all copies from $23.63! new only from $23.63!
14 view cover	The Story of the Blues [Sony] (2003) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $18.60! new only from $18.60!
15 view cover	The Rough Guides: American Roots Box (2003) more music like this by Various Artists It's not a bad idea at all, putting four of the Rough Guide albums together to make up the American Roots Box set. And four excellent ones have been chosen for this, pulling from the diverse corners of American roots music to round things out. So there's Cajun & Zydeco, Delta Blues, Bluegrass, and Gospel. All intelligently compiled, covering both ... see all copies from $41.23! new only from $41.23!
