1	Baby Beluga (1980) more music like this by Raffi From probably the world's most popular whale, this record is a delight. For ages three to eight. Bob Hinkle, All Music Guide see all copies from $10.24! new only from $10.24!
2	Beetlejuice (1988) more music like this by Danny Elfman Danny Elfman provides one of his most quintessentially Elfman-esque scores for one of Tim Burton's most quintessentially Burton-esque movies, Beetlejuice. The film's dark yet sardonically funny "Main Titles" is among Elfman's all-time best moments, bustling along with a dark joie de vivre (or is it joie de morte ?) that defines the spooky fun ... see all copies from $8.66! new only from $8.66!
3	Golden Hits [Mercury/PolyGram] (1958) more music like this by Sarah Vaughan Concept work. Songs are certainly great, CD has six bonus cuts. Caveat is you can get it all elsewhere, in its rightful context. Ron Wynn, All Music Guide see all copies from $10.29! new only from $10.29!
4	Raffi in Concert with the Rise & Shine Band (1996) more music like this by Raffi Here is the first really major figure in modern children's music. He blazed the trail for many to follow. Every recording is recommended. Raffi is Canada's gift to children everywhere. For ages two to six. Bob Hinkle, All Music Guide see all copies from $4.61! new only from $9.89!
5	Sailing (1992) more music like this by Erich Kunzel/Cincinnati Pops see all copies from $2.54! new only from $11.90!
6	All Time Greatest Hits, Vol. 1 (1978) more music like this by Harry Belafonte All Time Greatest Hits collects most of Harry Belafonte's biggest calypso hits, including "Banana Boat (Day-O)." Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide see all copies from $1.99!
7	The Tarriers (2001) more music like this by The Tarriers The Tarriers released their self-titled debut in 1957, one year before the folk revival exploded. Ironically, there's even a recording of "Tom Dooley" on The Tarriers, the song that made the Kingston Trio folk superstars. The group did have a hit with "The Banana Boat Song" -- the first to do so -- but Harry Belafonte's version, "Day-O," became ... see all copies from $14.74! new only from $14.74!
8	Instant Party Disc: Extra Strength (1999) more music like this by Various Artists It's hard to tell what makes Instant Party Disc: Extra Strength more powerful than its sibling Instant Party Disc: Regular Strength. It can't just be the music, because "Hooked On Swing," "Surfin' USA," "Caribbean Queen," "Banana Boat (Day-O)," "China Grove," "I'm Too Sexy" and Club Nouveau's "Lean On Me" aren't 101-proof pop/rock. Also, the ... see all copies from $23.93!
9	In the Wind: The Folk Music Collection (2003) more music like this by Various Artists About six months after the release of the early-'60s folk boom satire film A Mighty Wind, along came this rather similarly titled collection of folk revival relics, most from the first half of the 1960s (though a few are from the mid- to late '50s, and a Woody Guthrie 1940s version of "This Land Is Your Land" leads off the disc). Some of this ... see all copies from $12.85! new only from $12.85!
10	Folk Standards (1998) more music like this by Harry Belafonte As a budget-line introduction to the artistry of Harry Belafonte, Folk Standards does its job -- while more definitive collections are certainly available, this brief ten-track compilation still manages to include many of the singer's biggest hits, among them "Cocoanut Woman" and the seminal "Banana Boat (Day-O)." Jason Ankeny, All Music Guide see all copies from $2.19! new only from $3.31!
11 view cover	Island in the Sun [Pair] (1990) more music like this by Harry Belafonte see all copies from $6.97! new only from $19.79!
12 view cover	Peanut Butter Rock and Roll (1990) more music like this by Hasil Adkins Hasil Adkins albums fall into two distinct groups; since his rediscovery in the 1980s, he has recorded an avalanche of new material, some successful (The Wild Man), some not (the disastrous and chaotic Live in Chicago). By far the best are the ones that have been assembled from the homemade recordings Hasil cut in his West Virginia tar-paper shack ... see all copies from $12.00! new only from $12.00!
13 view cover	Best of Harry Belafonte [BMG] (2000) more music like this by Harry Belafonte see all copies from $39.72! new only from $39.72!
14 view cover	Raffi on Broadway: A Family Concert [Compact Disk] (1993) more music like this by Raffi Singer, songwriter and performer Raffi's appealing mix of traditional favorites and original songs has transformed the world of children's music. Raffi On Broadway is a family concert captured live at the Gershwin Theater in New York City. This album features such old favorites as "Baby Beluga" and "This Little Light," along with new songs written ... see all copies from $4.98! new only from $9.59!
15 view cover	Songs by Steve Lawrence (1995) more music like this by Steve Lawrence Oldies fans remember Buddy Knox's chart-topper "Party Doll," but Steve Lawrence also enjoyed a number one hit with the song according to the Cash Box charts. By Billboard's accounting it went Top Five and is only one of several hits included on his first Coral album, Songs by Steve Lawrence. Taragon's CD reissue adds three bonus tracks to make the ... see all copies from $13.59! new only from $13.59!
16 view cover	This Is Harry Belafonte (1990) more music like this by Harry Belafonte see all copies from $9.00!
17 view cover	Folk Song America, Vol. 2 (1991) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $6.95!
18 view cover	Then: Totally Oldies, Vol. 3 (2002) more music like this by Various Artists After exploring the '70s in Vol. 1 and the '60s in Vol. 2, the third volume in what seems to be an ongoing series drops back another decade to compile 18 tracks, almost all from the late '50s. Except for the Tarriers' -- whose members included a young Alan Arkin -- "Banana Boat Song" (which charted Top Five at the same time Harry Belafonte's ... see all copies from $7.68! new only from $7.68!
19 view cover	The Complete Sarah Vaughan on Mercury, Vol. 2: Sings Great American Songs (1956-1957) (1956) more music like this by Sarah Vaughan This five-CD box set, the second of four volumes that reissue all of Sarah Vaughan's recordings for Mercury and EmArcy (plus many previously unissued performances) contains her exploration of Gershwin songs, 13 vocal duets with her close friend Billy Eckstine and just five jazz numbers with her trio; all of the other selections feature Vaughan ... see all copies from $160.57!
20 view cover	Hard to Find 45's on CD, Vol. 3: The Mid 50's (1999) more music like this by Various Artists While pop music sells in copious quantities at the time of release, its cyclical and transitory nature means that many hits just don't come around again in the reissue sweepstakes. Enter Eric Records, an oldies label, to help rectify the situation with this set of compilations, bringing together 20 big non-rock & roll hits from the 1950s. A quick ... see all copies from $50.53!
21 view cover	Banana Boat and Other Famous Folk Songs (1988) more music like this by Harry Belafonte see all copies from $49.98! new only from $49.98!
22	The Harry Belafonte Collection (1984) more music like this by Harry Belafonte see all copies from $7.25!
23 view cover	Caribbean Guitar (1962) more music like this by Chet Atkins Chet Atkins's versatility and curiosity have covered a lot of ground, and you would think that his talent would be able to encompass calypso and other Caribbean styles as well. Alas, he isn't given much of a chance here, for very little of this torporously-paced album actually has anything to do with the Caribbean. Sure, some of the titles suggest ... see all copies from $17.34!
24 view cover	Little Arrows (1975) more music like this by Jimmy Osmond see all copies from $17.06!
25 view cover	Magic more music like this by Demis Roussos see all copies from $137.50!
