1	Howlin' Wolf/Moanin' in the Moonlight (1986) more music like this by Howlin' Wolf Howlin' Wolf's first and second Chess albums are essential listening of the highest order. They were compiled -- as were all early blues albums -- from various single sessions (not necessarily a bad thing, either), and blues fans will probably debate endlessly about which of the two albums is the perfect introduction to his music. But this CD ... see all copies from $4.69! new only from $8.66!
2	Portrait of a Legend 1951-1964 (2003) more music like this by Sam Cooke Some 46 years after his first pop hit, and 39 years after his death, comes only the second attempt at a comprehensive Sam Cooke collection. Portrait of a Legend 1951-1964 eclipses RCA's early-'80s The Man and His Music, going it better in running time but losing some important recordings -- "That's Heaven to Me" and "Soothe Me," arguably one of ... see all copies from $16.49! new only from $16.49!
3	Love You Live (1977) more music like this by The Rolling Stones Recorded on the supporting tour for 1976's Black and Blue, the double-album set Love You Live is an adequate live album, capturing the Stones' transition from a lean, lethal rock & roll band to accomplished showmen. As showmen, they aren't as compelling as they are when they're rockers, but the show-biz glitz of Mick Jagger's arena rock shtick ... see all copies from $14.43! new only from $14.43!
4	The Rolling Stones, Now! (1965) more music like this by The Rolling Stones Although their third American album was patched together (in the usual British Invasion tradition) from a variety of sources, it's their best early R&B-oriented effort. Most of the Stones' early albums suffer from three or four very weak cuts; Now! is almost uniformly strong start-to-finish, the emphasis on some of their blackest material. The ... see all copies from $12.61! new only from $12.61!
5	Dead Set (1981) more music like this by Grateful Dead The Grateful Dead mined two separate double-album sets from their 15th anniversary shows at the Warfield Theater in San Francisco and Radio City Music Hall in New York City. Because of the special nature of these shows -- which included the first acoustic sets that the band had played in almost a decade -- Reckoning was taken from the unplugged ... see all copies from $23.48! new only from $29.95!
6	Singles Collection: The London Years (1989) more music like this by The Rolling Stones The three-disc box set Singles Collection: The London Years contains every single the Rolling Stones released during the '60s, including both the A- and B-sides. It is the first Stones compilation that tries to be comprehensive and logical -- for all their attributes, the two Hot Rocks sets and the two Big Hits collections didn't present the ... see all copies from $46.32! new only from $46.32!
7	Flashpoint (1991) more music like this by The Rolling Stones The live follow-ups and a fond look back on 25 years of decadence. Bruce Eder, All Music Guide see all copies from $4.99! new only from $11.13!
8	The Complete Vanguard Recordings (2000) more music like this by Big Mama Thornton This wonderful three-disc set brings together everything Willie Mae Thornton recorded for the folk music label in the mid-'70s. It's comprised of her two released albums from 1975, Jail and Sassy Mama, and a complete unreleased album, Big Mama Swings. Thornton was still in good voice on these sessions and while not as powerful as her Peacock sides ... see all copies from $21.24! new only from $21.24!
9	Night Beat (1963) more music like this by Sam Cooke Saddled with soaring strings and vocal choruses for maximum crossover potential, Sam Cooke's solo material often masked the most important part of his genius -- his glorious voice -- so the odd small-group date earns a special recommendation in his discography. Thankfully, Cooke's voice took center stage on this admirably low-key session from ... see all copies from $16.59! new only from $16.59!
10	I Am the Blues (1970) more music like this by Willie Dixon The material is superb, consisting of some of Willie Dixon's best-known songs of the 1960s, and the production is smoothly professional, but none of the performances here are likely to make you forget the hits by Howlin' Wolf, Muddy Waters, and others. Bruce Eder, All Music Guide see all copies from $7.84! new only from $7.84!
11 view cover	Pure Blues (2001) more music like this by Various Artists The "pure" in the Pure series initially suggested the unadulterated, soothing dulcet tones of new age in the Pure Moods discs, but as the series took off, Universal Music realized they had a real marketable brand name here, so they decided to use it for different genres. The one thing that all the collections shared was that they were exceptional ... see all copies from $13.34! new only from $13.34!
12 view cover	Texas Cadillac (1993) more music like this by Smokin' Joe Kubek Smokin' Joe Kubek's third Rounder album juggles blues-rock originals with faithful, exuberant covers of Jimmy Reed, Willie Dixon, Muddy Waters and Little Walter Jacobs, among others. Kubek is a good, sometimes captivating guitarist and entertaining singer, if not the greatest pure vocalist, and the band rips through the 11 cuts in a relaxed, yet ... see all copies from $10.78! new only from $15.33!
13 view cover	A Very Special Christmas, Vol. 5 (2001) more music like this by Various Artists The fifth volume of the celebrated A Very Special Christmas series gathers some of the new millennium's chart mainstays and MTV staples, as well as some of modern rock's rising stars supporting the Special Olympics. It's more of a tradition, and certainly a welcoming one at that, in the spirit of Christmas. With more than a dozen Christmas ... see all copies from $2.34! new only from $7.68!
14 view cover	Chicago Blues Session! (1995) more music like this by Willie Mabon Chicago Blues Session! features a session pianist Willie Mabon cut on Independence Day 1979 with guitarist Hubert Sumlin, guitarist Eddie Taylor, bassist Aron Burton and drummer Casey Jones. The album was originally released on the German L&R label, mainly because American labels were shunning the blues. That could be the only reason this album ... see all copies from $12.08! new only from $14.57!
15 view cover	The Sound of Speed (1993) more music like this by The Jesus and Mary Chain The Sound of Speed is second in the trilogy of Jesus and Mary Chain "odds and sods" releases. This one isn't quite as essential as Barbed Wire Kisses (the first), but it definitely holds less cash-cow negativity and greater value over The Jesus and Mary Chain Hate Rock 'n' Roll (the third). The period covered here is 1989-1993, collecting most of ... see all copies from $9.76! new only from $24.15!
16 view cover	Bad News Is Coming (1973) more music like this by Luther Allison The very thing that made Luther Allison noteworthy became an albatross around his neck. Years after his initial run of records in the '70s, he was known for the same thing he was at the time -- he was the only blues artist on Gordy, or any Motown affiliated label. This was true and novel, but many focused on the novelty, not the truth, ignoring ... see all copies from $8.66! new only from $8.66!
17 view cover	Friend of Mine (1993) more music like this by Bill Morrissey & Greg Brown Bill Morrissey and Greg Brown's paths had been crossing on the folk circuit when, in 1993, they formed an acoustic duet in a Massachusetts studio for Friend of Mine. Brown clearly has more of a range than Morrissey, but when it comes to singing with plenty of warmth, humanity and feeling, neither are lacking. And the singers/guitarists clearly ... see all copies from $10.99! new only from $16.21!
18 view cover	The Rhythm and the Blues (1995) more music like this by Sam Cooke From the title, you might infer that this 20-track compilation -- taken from early-'60s sessions, and principally composed of LP-only cuts -- aims to showcase Cooke's most soulful side. That's true to some degree, but this isn't his funkiest stuff; for that, look to Live at the Harlem Square Club 1963, or even his most up-tempo singles. Most of ... see all copies from $11.06! new only from $11.06!
19 view cover	The Chess Box (1989) more music like this by Willie Dixon This was the most unusual, and probably the most difficult to assemble of MCA's Chess Box series, mostly because of the unusual nature of Willie Dixon's contribution to Chess Records. To be sure, Dixon rates a place in the history of the label right alongside that of Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf, and Little Walter, but his role was more subtle than ... see all copies from $22.26! new only from $22.26!
20 view cover	Memphis Blood: The Sun Sessions (2001) more music like this by James Blood Ulmer Over three days in April 2001, James "Blood" Ulmer and producer/guitarist Vernon Reid (yes, of Living Colour fame) went into the legendary Sun Studios in Memphis and kicked out some of the greasiest, knottiest, most surreal blues music ever. The blues have always been part of Ulmer's iconography, even when deeply entrenched in the harmolodic ... see all copies from $10.78! new only from $10.78!
21 view cover	Ball n' Chain (1968) more music like this by Big Mama Thornton Arhoolie's Ball n' Chain is a terrific collection of late-'60s recordings from Big Mama Thornton. Supported on various tracks by Lightnin' Hopkins and Larry Williams, Big Mama runs through such familiar items as "Hound Dog," "Sometimes I Have a Heartache," "Sweet Little Angel," "Little Red Rooster," "Wade in the Water," and "Ball and Chain," ... see all copies from $15.35! new only from $15.42!
22 view cover	Poet of the Blues (1998) more music like this by Willie Dixon Columbia/Legacy's Poet of the Blues is a fine 16-track collection that spotlights Willie Dixon's own recordings of such blues standards as "Back Door Man," "I Can't Quit You Babe," "Spoonful," "The Little Red Rooster" and "I Ain't Sperstitious," plus some lesser-known originals like "If the Sea Was Whiskey," "O.C. Bounce," "Money Tree Blues," ... see all copies from $5.47! new only from $5.47!
23 view cover	16 Most Requested Songs (2000) more music like this by Sam Cooke Velvety smooth, cool Sam Cooke left behind a legacy of recordings with his most renown located here on the tightest 16-track collection you'd find. The CD is a sing-along from the first selection, "You Send Me," to the last, "Summertime." The styles are blues, R&B, soul, and inspirational, and Cooke handles them all with the assurance of a master ... see all copies from $17.41! new only from $17.41!
24 view cover	Sunrise (1999) more music like this by Robben Ford It's ironic that some of the people who swear up and down that they don't like jazz will get into Robben Ford, whose career has as much to do with jazz as it does with blues, pop, soul and rock. Though Ford was never a "jazz snob," his jazz credentials are quite solid. Jazz, blues and rock are all primary ingredients of Sunrise, a CD that was ... see all copies from $5.55! new only from $11.11!
25 view cover	Where Have You Been? Live in Montreux 1976-1994 (1997) more music like this by Luther Allison Where Have You Been? Live in Montreux 1976-1994 features the exciting blues guitarist/singer Luther Allison on selections taken from four appearances at the Montreux Jazz Festival. Although the title says 1974-1994, the earliest numbers are actually from 1976, and these are the most memorable cuts on the CD. Even when sticking to cover tunes ... see all copies from $15.27!
