1	Will the Circle Be Unbroken (1972) more music like this by The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band With all due respect to the Byrds and the Flying Burrito Brothers, it took the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band with this album to come up with a merger of rock and country music that worked for both sides and everyone involved. The opening number, "The Grand Ole Opry Song," set the tone for the album, showing that this band -- for all of their origins in ... see all copies from $3.83! new only from $7.00!
2	King of Country Music [Proper Box] (2004) more music like this by Roy Acuff The King of Country Music finally receives his due with this four-disc box set that compiles 101 recordings Roy Acuff made between 1937 and 1950 for the Perfect, Vocalion, Conqueror, OKeh, and Columbia labels. Acuff was a country music standard-bearer on and off the Opry for so many years, it's amazing that this is the first time he has been ... see all copies from $21.96! new only from $23.63!
3	Beyond the Missouri Sky (Short Stories) (1996) more music like this by Charlie Haden & Pat Metheny Charlie Haden and Pat Metheny have been good friends since the 1970s, so it comes as a bit of a surprise that Beyond the Missouri Sky should be their first duet album together. Both musicians are from small towns in Missouri, which leads Metheny to speculate in the liner notes if this similarity of childhood ambience might have something to do ... see all copies from $4.58! new only from $16.81!
4	Will the Circle Be Unbroken: The Trilogy (2003) more music like this by The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band In 1972, long before O Brother, Where Art Thou? allowed hipsters and intermittent record buyers through the great oak doors of traditional country music, California's Nitty Gritty Dirt Band gathered legends and soon to become legends of country music into a Nashville studio and made the sprawling Will the Circle Be Unbroken. The success of this ... see all copies from $42.00! new only from $42.00!
5	20 All-Time Greatest Hits (2002) more music like this by The Louvin Brothers What's accurate about this title is that it does contain 20 songs recorded by the Louvin Brothers. This "All-Time Greatest Hits" business is a total crock. There are a few well-known numbers tossed in here for measure, such as their version of "Great Speckled Bird," "Knoxville Girl," "When I Stop Dreaming," and "I Love You Best of All," but much ... see all copies from $9.81! new only from $9.81!
6	20 Greatest Songs (2001) more music like this by Roy Acuff see all copies from $12.96! new only from $12.96!
7	40 Songs (2003) more music like this by The Louvin Brothers see all copies from $17.80! new only from $17.80!
8	King of Country Music [TeeVee] (1982) more music like this by Roy Acuff Although this label is notorious for flooding the market with shoddy packaging and greatest-hits packages that consist of nothing but lame re-cuts, this is actually a 20-track collection of Acuff's early Columbia sides. Unfortunately, it's all copied off of old scratchy 78s and the sound hasn't been cleaned up too well. Still, it is a way to ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $9.87!
9	Beyond the Missouri Sky [Bonus DVD] (2003) more music like this by Charlie Haden/Pat Metheny see all copies from $9.99! new only from $27.64!
10	The Essential Roy Acuff [Columbia] (2004) more music like this by Roy Acuff Roy Acuff is a pivotal figure in country music, standing clearly at the crossroads of what had been termed hillbilly music and what would soon become modern country. A no more than adequate singer and fiddle player, Acuff still managed to hit just the right tone of sincerity with his spare and simple songs (most of which were carefully chosen ... see all copies from $6.37! new only from $6.37!
11 view cover	R.C. Cola Radio Shows, Vol. 2 (1999) more music like this by Roy Acuff see all copies from $12.98!
12 view cover	Songs of the Smokey Mountains (1955) more music like this by Roy Acuff Songs of the Smokey Mountains was the sole LP released by Capitol during Acuff's stay with the label in the mid-'50s. It contains remakes of his classics from the late '30s and early '40s, recorded in three sessions in 1954-1955. The original versions are definitive, of course, but it is interesting to hear Acuff reprise these songs under more ... see all copies from $3.01! new only from $9.01!
13 view cover	King of Country Music [Bear Family Box Set] (1994) more music like this by Roy Acuff see all copies from $23.70! new only from $34.01!
14 view cover	Sing the Great Roy Acuff Songs (2003) more music like this by The Louvin Brothers One of the many "theme" albums the Louvin Brothers released during their tenure at Capitol Records (which was assembled from older recordings by the label two years after Ira Louvin's death), The Louvin Brothers Sing the Great Roy Acuff Songs finds Charlie and Ira interpreting 12 songs made famous by another one of country music's staunch ... see all copies from $8.55! new only from $8.55!

19 view cover	She Thinks I Still Care: The Complete United Artists Recordings, 1962-1964 [Bear Family (2007) more music like this by George Jones George Jones was at United Artists for just three years -- and in those three years he recorded enough music to fill the five discs of Bear Family's She Thinks I Still Care: The Complete United Artists Recordings, 1962-1964. That's an amazing stat in itself, and it becomes even more remarkable when you consider that of the 150 songs on this box ... see all copies from $142.05! new only from $142.05!
20 view cover	The Essential Roy Acuff: 1936-1949 (1992) more music like this by Roy Acuff Columbia/Legacy has assembled a single-disc treasure-trove introduction to Roy Acuff that is simply unbeatable. These 20 cuts make the finest case of all for Acuff's long reign as king of the Grand Ole Opry as well as his cornerstone influence on American country music. Certainly "Great Speckled Bird" is here, but so are "Night Train to Memphis," ... see all copies from $5.33! new only from $5.33!

24 view cover	Will the Circle Be Unbroken [Bonus Tracks] (2002) more music like this by The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band With all due respect to the Byrds and the Flying Burrito Brothers, it took the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band with this album to come up with a merger of rock and country music that worked for both sides and everyone involved. The opening number, "The Grand Ole Opry Song," set the tone for the album, showing that this band -- for all of their origins in ... see all copies from $24.28! new only from $24.28!
25 view cover	Once More It's Roy Acuff/King of Country Music (2004) more music like this by Roy Acuff This two-fer combines two early-'60s Acuff LPs, Once More It's Roy Acuff and King of Country Music (also sometimes known as All Time Greatest Hits), onto one CD. Once More It's Roy Acuff was his first album for the Hickory label and was, as was often customary at the time, not so much a deliberately assembled full-length project as a collection of ... see all copies from $15.32! new only from $15.32!
