1	Cold Mountain (2003) more music like this by Original Soundtrack Miramax hops on the old-timey bandwagon with the release of the soundtrack for Anthony Minghella's Civil War epic Cold Mountain. Like O Brother, Where Art Thou?'s dark, older sibling, the latest collection of blues, ballads, and laments from producer T-Bone Burnett is a veritable dictionary of traditional country and Americana, but with a ... see all copies from $4.25! new only from $11.06!
2	The Natch'l Blues (1968) more music like this by Taj Mahal Taj Mahal's second album, recorded in the spring and fall of 1968, opens with more stripped-down Delta-style blues in the manner of his debut, but adds a little more amplification (partly courtesy of Al Kooper on organ) before moving into wholly bigger sound on numbers like "She Caught the Katy and Left Me a Mule to Ride" and "The Cuckoo" -- the ... see all copies from $7.49! new only from $11.06!
3	Songcatcher (2001) more music like this by Original Soundtrack The soundtrack to a film about a woman music scholar's travels in Appalachia is largely devoted to contemporary versions of traditional folk songs by an impressive roster of female vocalists. Rosanne Cash, Emmylou Harris, Maria McKee, Dolly Parton (dueting with Emmy Rossum), Gillian Welch, Iris DeMent, and Patty Loveless are the big names here, ... see all copies from $9.99! new only from $14.22!
4	A Song Will Rise (1965) more music like this by Peter, Paul & Mary By their fifth album, Peter, Paul & Mary had fallen into a consistency of approach that could be viewed as either dependable or predictable. This had the usual assortment of traditional songs ("Motherless Child," "The Cuckoo"), songs that had first gained an audience during prior folk revivals ("Wasn't That a Time"), a bit of original material, ... see all copies from $7.49! new only from $12.91!
5	Rabbit Songs (2001) more music like this by Hem Quoted as wanting to make a record "we could love the rest of our lives," Hem spent a year on this collection. The idea was to combine their love of traditional American music with the lushness of the occasional 18-piece orchestra, a good choice considering the sweet, crystalline quality of the vocal work by lead singer Sally Ellyson. Ellyson had ... see all copies from $3.41! new only from $14.48!
6	My Roots Are Showing (2000) more music like this by Natalie MacMaster Since Natalie MacMaster is basically a traditional Cape Breton Island Celtic fiddler who sometimes adds more modern elements to her music, a traditional album is an ideal way to hear her in her most natural environment, and My Roots Are Showing, finally issued in the U.S. by Rounder in April 2000 after having been released by Warner Bros. in ... see all copies from $7.49! new only from $15.98!
7	Hips and Makers (1994) more music like this by Kristin Hersh Kristin Hersh dug into her backlog of compositions for material of an intensely personal nature that she felt wouldn't be suitable for her band on her solo debut, Hips and Makers. In stark contrast to her work with Throwing Muses, Hips and Makers is almost entirely acoustic. Hersh embellishes her waifish voice and acoustic guitar with touches of ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
8	Custer LaRue Sing The Daemon Lover (1993) more music like this by Custer LaRue/Baltimore Consort Just about everything that Custer LaRue performs turns out beautifully, and that's certainly the case again with her 1993 release, The Daemon Lover. LaRue's glorious soprano is in fine form on the title song (which may be better known to some as "The House Carpenter") and, indeed, all throughout the album. From "Fare Ye Well, Lovely Nancy" to ... see all copies from $5.57! new only from $17.62!
9	Tom Rush [1965] (1965) more music like this by Tom Rush It's unfortunate that Tom Rush's third album has such a strong reputation among rock listeners -- not that it doesn't deserve it, but it sort of distracts them from this album, which was as natural a fit for rock listeners as any folk album of its era. Rush's debut album is filled with a hard, bluesy brand of folk music that's hard on the acoustic ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $12.75!
10	Negrass (2007) more music like this by Laura Love see all copies from $14.66! new only from $14.66!
11 view cover	Flamejob (1994) more music like this by The Cramps Something of a return to form, Flamejob features the band's most committed, energetic performances in quite some time, with wild, crazed vocals from Lux Interior and sizzling guitar work from Poison Ivy enlivening some of the band's most entertainingly stupid and crude offerings, including "Let's Get Fucked Up" and "Inside Out and Upside Down ... see all copies from $9.55! new only from $9.55!
12 view cover	Beat Cafe (2004) more music like this by Donovan Beat Cafe is Donovan's first record in nine years. His last, the Rick Rubin-produced Sutras was issued in 1993 and was hopelessly misunderstood -- especially coming as it did on the heels of Rubin's first collaboration with Johnny Cash. This side, produced by the rootsy yet eclectic John Chelew who has worked with everyone from Richard Thompson to ... see all copies from $6.25! new only from $15.65!
13 view cover	Wheels Within Wheels (2003) more music like this by Rory Gallagher Although best known for his barnstorming blues-rock, Irish guitarist Rory Gallagher had a softer side, too. All of his studio albums contain at least one acoustic folk-blues track, and Gallagher included an unplugged set in the majority of his live shows way before that was fashionable. Almost eight years after his death, Rory's brother Donal ... see all copies from $7.02! new only from $11.06!
14 view cover	Angel Delight [Bonus Track] (2004) more music like this by Fairport Convention Delight is the word for the 2004 remastering of Angel Delight -- the new digital transfer gives the voices and instruments on the opening track, "Lord Marlborough," almost a live presence, and the disc gets better from there; you can practically hear the action on the instruments throughout this CD, and if that's not enticement enough, then a ... see all copies from $15.20! new only from $15.20!
15 view cover	Original Folkways Recordings: 1960-1962 (1994) more music like this by Doc Watson & Clarence Ashley This important release documents the rediscovery of banjoist and comedian Clarence (Tom) Ashley in the early '60s, and the simultaneous introduction of a young and then-unknown guitar picker, the astounding Doc Watson. Ashley was one of the many musicians of the '20s and '30s whose early work appeared briefly on Harry Smith's 1952 Anthology of ... see all copies from $22.28! new only from $22.28!
16 view cover	Hard Travelin' (1989) more music like this by Ramblin' Jack Elliott Ramblin' Jack Elliott's early-'60s Prestige LPs Sings the Songs of Woody Guthrie and Ramblin' Jack Elliott are combined onto a single 77-minute disc on this CD reissue, with one song ("I Love Her So/I Got a Woman") deleted for space reasons. It's not as good as hearing Woody Guthrie himself, and may strike contemporary listeners as a bit tame and ... see all copies from $16.89! new only from $16.89!
17 view cover	Rockin'est (1998) more music like this by The Collins Kids If Larry and Lorrie, the Collins Kids, were denied their rightful place at the hitmaking table during the 1950s, then the music some 40 years later poises them as the very energetic embodiment of ground-floor rockabilly music. Lorrie's sexy vocals and Larry's twangy guitar breaks fused to his hyperkinetic little-brother stance make for some pretty ... see all copies from $17.79! new only from $17.79!
18 view cover	Willow (2004) more music like this by Misty River see all copies from $13.57! new only from $13.57!
19 view cover	This-a-Way, That-a-Way (1989) more music like this by Ella Jenkins Ella Jenkins' This-a-Way, That-a-Way finds the famous folksinger leading a group of school children in fun call and response numbers and singalongs that are as energetic and sunny as they are educational. Jenkins leads her charges on the title track and "Miss Mary Mack," and has them snap along with her rhythm on "Do You Know Your County?" "I Know ... see all copies from $5.85! new only from $14.95!
20 view cover	My Life (2006) more music like this by Grace Griffith Although her passionate voice and pop/folk vibe brings Joni Mitchell instantly to mind, and her voice has the ethereal, emotional magic of Sarah McLachlan, Grace Griffith will no doubt bear more comparisons to the late Eva Cassidy for a handful of reasons. First, the exquisite and haunting My Life is her fourth recording for Blix Street, the label ... see all copies from $15.49! new only from $15.49!
21 view cover	3 Albums from Shelby Flint: Shelby Flint Sings Folk/Shelby Flint/Cast Your Fate to The (2002) more music like this by Shelby Flint Although she is probably best remembered for "Angel on My Shoulder" and a highly affective take of Vince Guaraldi's "Cast Your Fate to the Wind," Shelby Flint recorded a trio of long-players during the 1960s for the burgeoning Valiant Records label. This double-disc anthology gathers together her debut, Shelby Flint (1961), Shelby Flint Sings Folk ... see all copies from $23.10! new only from $23.10!
22 view cover	The Tradition Years: An Evening with John Jacob Niles (2006) more music like this by John Jacob Niles see all copies from $11.86! new only from $11.86!
23 view cover	Live at the Gaslight 1962 (2005) more music like this by Bob Dylan The mysterious tape of early Bob Dylan performances said to have been recorded at the Gaslight Café in Greenwich Village in 1962 began turning up on bootleg albums such as Ode for Barbara Allen, The Gaslight Tapes, Dylan '62, and Barbed Wire Blues in the 1970s. In 1991, one track, "No More Auction Block," earned legitimate release on The Bootleg ... see all copies from $19.99!
24 view cover	The Bonny Bunch of Roses (1997) more music like this by Seamus Ennis see all copies from $7.65!
25 view cover	The Collection (2005) more music like this by De Danann see all copies from $5.04! new only from $5.04!
