1	The Complete Recordings [Columbia #1] (1990) more music like this by Robert Johnson A double-disc box set containing everything Robert Johnson ever recorded, The Complete Recordings is essential listening, but it is also slightly problematic. The problems aren't in the music itself, of course, which is stunning and the fidelity of the recordings is the best it ever has been or ever will be. Instead, it's in the track sequencing. ... see all copies from $7.50! new only from $14.82!
2	Me and Mr. Johnson (2004) more music like this by Eric Clapton Ten years after his first all-blues album, From the Cradle, Eric Clapton released Me and Mr. Johnson, an album-length tribute to his hero, the legendary bluesman Robert Johnson. Not that this is the first time Clapton has paid tribute to Johnson. Throughout his career, Clapton has not only drawn on Johnson for inspiration, but he has covered his ... see all copies from $5.95! new only from $10.00!
3	Sessions for Robert J. [CD & DVD] (2004) more music like this by Eric Clapton It appears that Eric Clapton had more Robert Johnson in his blood than he thought -- or perhaps it was planned this way. This DVD/CD set (and really, it's not the other way around despite the packaging), showcases Clapton mining the Robert Johnson vein ever more deeply in no less than four different settings. The DVD features 19 acoustic and ... see all copies from $19.92! new only from $19.92!
4	King of the Delta Blues Singers, Vol. 2 (1970) more music like this by Robert Johnson A wonderful follow-up to the first compilation (King of the Delta Blues Singers) of Robert Johnson's small library of recorded work. This album boasts the first album appearance of "Love in Vain," as well as a number of other blues classics penned by the artist. "Sweet Home Chicago," "I Believe I'll Dust My Broom," "They're Red Hot," and "Malted ... see all copies from $50.69!
5	Best of Carl Weathersby (2003) more music like this by Carl Weathersby Best of Carl Weathersby provides an adequate representation of the singer and guitarist's modern soul-blues output in the late '90s. The 15 tracks are taken from his four discs on the Evidence label, Don't Lay Your Blues on Me, Looking Out My Window, Restless Feeling, and Come to Papa. While a few of these tunes may be too radio-friendly for blues ... see all copies from $13.99! new only from $13.99!
6	Deltabilly Swing (1999) more music like this by Jeremy Lyons see all copies from $19.99!
7	Me & the Devil (2001) more music like this by Peter Green & Robert Johnson While it's no secret that guitar king Peter Green is obsessed with Robert Johnson, having done two previous recordings of his music, this box is in essence something else. There are three CDs included here, one of which is Hot Foot Powder, the first album by the Peter Green Splinter Group, which included guest performances from the likes of Otis ... see all copies from $16.99! new only from $20.63!
8	Hellhound on My Trail: Songs of Robert Johnson (2001) more music like this by Various Artists Not the first compilation of bluesmen (and one woman) interpreting the limited but radically influential work of Robert Johnson, and almost certainly not the last, this 2001 entry is one of the more substantial efforts in the lineage. Instead of refashioning these classics in unique arrangements, the compilers have stripped the artists and songs ... see all copies from $3.59! new only from $10.29!
9	Gold Collection (1998) more music like this by Robert Johnson see all copies from $10.00! new only from $11.03!
10	Delta Crossroads (2000) more music like this by Robert Lockwood, Jr. For Delta Crossroads, Robert Lockwood Jr., a former student of Robert Johnson, returns to his Delta blues roots. This 16-track album features Lockwood with only his 12-string acoustic guitar. It is rather strange hearing old Delta blues sung by one of its originals on a modern recording. All of the notes from the guitar are clear. Plus, his voice ... see all copies from $10.38! new only from $10.38!
11 view cover	The Road to Robert Johnson (2007) more music like this by Robert Johnson see all copies from $25.71! new only from $25.71!
12 view cover	Live at Myrtle Beach (2005) more music like this by Widespread Panic The members of Widespread Panic seem to have contented themselves with the notion of the band's audience being exactly what it is. Given the records they've issued in the last couple of years, they no longer seem ambitious about growing to reach anyone else. (For one thing, when was the last time the band did a studio recording?) This is too bad, ... see all copies from $22.47! new only from $22.47!

14 view cover	From Four Till Late (2004) more music like this by Robert Johnson Robert Johnson may not have been as innovative in the country blues field as many people think, but as one of the last of the great Delta players to record, he brought a late-era refinement to his material, and with striking songs like "Stones in My Passway," "Hellhound on My Trail," and the assured "Last Fair Deal Gone Down," he certainly ... see all copies from $10.05! new only from $10.05!
15 view cover	Mississippi Blues, Vol. 4 (2007) more music like this by Robert Johnson A sort of odds and ends collection that was originally issued on LP in 1987, Mississippi Blues, Vol. 4 gathers several alternate takes from Robert Johnson recorded between November 1936 and June 1937, including versions of "Cross Road Blues" and "Love in Vain," eight rare sides recorded by Robert Lockwood, Jr. between 1941 and 1955, and the ... see all copies from $14.47! new only from $14.47!
16 view cover	The Robert Johnson Songbook [2003] (2003) more music like this by Peter Green Splinter Group see all copies from $11.34! new only from $11.34!
17 view cover	Here's Your Pizza (1997) more music like this by Steve Forbert & the Rough Squirrels Steve Forbert may have been Alive on Arrival (the title of his 1978 debut), but it took him another 19 years to get around to releasing a live album. He dug into the vaults to do it, waxing a concert he recorded with his band, the Rough Squirrels, in a small Florida club back in 1987. "Yes there's some tape hiss here, some distortion," and Forbert ... see all copies from $14.47! new only from $14.47!
18 view cover	Complete Collection (1998) more music like this by Robert Johnson Robert Johnson's recordings were made in the 1930s, but they did not become widely known until the 1960s, and did not achieve mass popularity until the 1990s, with the release of Columbia/Legacy's box set The Complete Recordings. Due to the age of the recordings, however, they are in the public domain in Europe, so any record label can simply copy ... see all copies from $5.07! new only from $5.07!
19 view cover	The Complete Recordings [Sony/BMG] (2008) by Robert Johnson see all copies from $7.00!
20 view cover	Robert Johnson [Fruit Tree] (2004) more music like this by Robert Johnson This single-disc, 16-track collection of Robert Johnson's blues is yet another in the countless dozens that have already been issued. It adds nothing new -- simply because there is nothing new to add. The package is somewhat dodgy, and the sound isn't quite as pristine as the Sony remastered CDs. The only pluses for a novice would be that there ... see all copies from $11.85! new only from $11.85!

23 view cover	The Ultimate Blues Legend (2004) more music like this by Robert Johnson Robert Johnson may not have been as innovative in the country blues field as many people think, but as one of the last of the great Delta players to record, he brought a late-era refinement to his material, and with striking songs like "Stones in My Passway," "Hellhound on My Trail," and the assured "Last Fair Deal Gone Down," he certainly ... see all copies from $4.75! new only from $4.75!
24 view cover	King of the Delta Blues Singers, Vol. 2 [Bonus Track] (2004) more music like this by Robert Johnson King of the Delta Blues Singers,is a wonderful follow-up to the first compilation of Robert Johnson's small library of recorded work. This album boasts the first album appearance of "Love in Vain," as well as a number of other blues classics penned by the artist. "Sweet Home Chicago," "I Believe I'll Dust My Broom," "They're Red Hot," and "Malted ... see all copies from $11.06! new only from $11.06!
