1	The Chess Box (1988) more music like this by Chuck Berry Over the course of three compact discs, The Chess Box contains most of the highlights from Chuck Berry's career, including all of the hit singles. In addition to the familiar items, which are all included here, there are numerous tracks that are lesser-known but equally as good. That's particularly true on the stellar first two discs, where album ... see all copies from $14.00! new only from $38.76!
2	The Singles, Vol. 3: 1964-1965 (2007) more music like this by James Brown see all copies from $28.43! new only from $28.43!
3	Martin Scorsese Presents the Blues: A Musical Journey (2003) more music like this by Original Soundtrack This five-disc, 116-track box set presents a sweeping history of the blues from its emergence in the early 1900s clear through to its various contemporary guises, and includes samples of country blues in all of its regional variations, as well as cuts from string bands, jug bands, jazz combos, gritty Chicago blues outfits, and a look at how rock ... see all copies from $61.29! new only from $61.29!
4	The Chess Box (1990) more music like this by Muddy Waters The Chess Box does not contain all the great music Muddy Waters made. His talent and legacy are too large to be captured in a mere three discs, even one that spans from 1947 to 1972. This means, of course, that his legendary plantation recordings with Alan Lomax are not here, nor is his dynamic late-'70s comeback, Hard Again. But, truth be told, ... see all copies from $38.76! new only from $38.76!
5	Live at Carnegie Hall (1997) more music like this by Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble Live at Carnegie Hall captures Stevie Ray Vaughan on the supporting tour for his second album, 1984's Couldn't Stand the Weather. The Carnegie Hall concert was a special show, since it was the only time Vaughan and Double Trouble added the brass section from Roomful of Blues to augment their sound; in addition, the concert featured guest ... see all copies from $3.98! new only from $11.06!
6	Sufferin' Mind (1991) more music like this by Guitar Slim His guitar fraught with manic high-end distortion and his vocals fried over church-fired intensity, Eddie "Guitar Slim" Jones influenced a boatload of disciples while enjoying the rewards that came with his 1954 R&B chart-topper, "The Things That I Used to Do." This 26-song survey of Slim's seminal 1953-1955 Specialty catalog rates with the best ... see all copies from $6.00! new only from $13.71!
7	Frozen Alive! (1981) more music like this by Albert Collins Frozen Alive! demonstrates the exuberant power of Albert Collins in concert and contains enough first-rate solos to make it a worthwhile listen for fans of his icy style. [A live Japanese edition released in 2006 contains bonus tracks.] Thom Owens, All Music Guide see all copies from $8.00! new only from $11.15!
8	Live at the Checkerboard Lounge (1988) more music like this by Buddy Guy see all copies from $15.11! new only from $15.11!
9	The Complete Vanguard Recordings (2000) more music like this by Buddy Guy see all copies from $19.97! new only from $19.97!
10	Cosimo Matassa Story (2007) more music like this by Various Artists Although he's far from a household name, it's hard to imagine the existence of New Orleans R&B without Cosimo Matassa. As owner and engineer at J&M Studios, housed in a reworked grocery store on Rampart Street, Matassa saw the birth of R&B, rock & roll, and soul pass through his doors between 1945 and 1956, and he was responsible for the early ... see all copies from $23.04! new only from $23.04!
11 view cover	Stormy Monday (1974) more music like this by Big Joe Turner This 1991 CD contains six selections taken from Big Joe Turner's 1974-78 Pablo sessions but never previously released. The veteran blues singer is joined by a variety of famous and obscure musicians with guitarist Pee Wee Crayton and pianist Lloyd Glenn appearing on the majority of the tracks. The most interesting selection, "Stormy Monday," is ... see all copies from $4.37! new only from $4.37!
12 view cover	Blues Gold [Hip O] (2006) more music like this by Various Artists None of the cuts on this two-disc, 38-track collection is particularly obscure or hard to find elsewhere, but what makes it a useful set is having them all in one package, and the end result is a nice introduction to modern electric blues. Included are such classic blues performances as Big Mama Thornton's "Hound Dog," T-Bone Walker's "Call It ... see all copies from $9.70! new only from $20.45!
13 view cover	Stoop Down Baby...Let Your Daddy See (1972) more music like this by Chick Willis Here's the signifyin' original "Stoop Down Baby" in its long, unexpurgated version as issued on the tiny La Val label in 1972. "Mother Fuyer" travels the same salacious route, but Chick Willis has a serious side, too -- a pair of Guitar Slim covers spotlight Willis' stinging guitar and sturdy singing. Bill Dahl, All Music Guide see all copies from $10.00! new only from $10.72!
14 view cover	Blues (2003) more music like this by Chuck Berry Chuck Berry grew up on the blues, taking Muddy Waters as a particular hero, so when he signed with Chess Records in the mid-'50s, the label undoubtedly figured they were getting a blues artist. Which Berry was, but his bright, skittering guitar style and penchant for writing songs with lyrics that set aside blues clichés for something closer to ... see all copies from $8.66! new only from $8.66!
15 view cover	Live (2001) more music like this by The Fabulous Thunderbirds Like spiritually similar brethren George Thorogood (only with a Tex-Mex flair, natch), the Thunderbirds have released a live disc on the CMC imprint. This appropriately monikered Live does a fine job of displaying the hits, namely "Wrap It Up" and "Tuff Enuff," and that alone would make it a decent primer for the band, though purists would no ... see all copies from $11.15! new only from $11.15!
16 view cover	The Roots of Rock 'n' Roll: 1946-1954 (2004) more music like this by Various Artists Of the numerous various-artist compilation CDs that have attempted to anthologize the recordings of the late '40s and early '50s most crucial to planting the seeds for rock & roll, this three-CD, 60-song set is probably the most definitive. Most prior collections along these lines have failed to present a truly comprehensive picture of rock & roll ... see all copies from $35.35! new only from $35.35!
17 view cover	Live at Sugar Hill, Vol. 2 (2002) more music like this by John Lee Hooker Why they kept these 19 recordings locked up in some vault for 40 years is beyond comprehension. A chunk of the Live at Sugar Hill material -- recorded at a club in the Bay Area -- was issued by Fantasy as Boogie Chillun on LP in 1972. It is available on CD minus one track under the same title. As good as that material was, these tracks from the ... see all copies from $13.91! new only from $13.91!
18 view cover	Things That I Used to Do (1977) more music like this by Big Joe Turner This is one of Big Joe Turner's best albums of his last period. Turner is in fine form and joined by some superb blues and jazz musicians. Altoist Eddie "Cleanhead" Vinson (pity that he didn't have a vocal duet with Turner) and trumpeter Blue Mitchell get some solo space as does the veteran R&B tenor Wild Bill Moore, pianist Lloyd Glenn and ... see all copies from $15.00!
19 view cover	As Good as It Gets (1998) more music like this by Buddy Guy see all copies from $14.22! new only from $14.22!
20 view cover	My Feeling for the Blues (1969) more music like this by Freddie King Another vocal heavy set. Bill Dahl, All Music Guide see all copies from $15.98! new only from $41.99!
21 view cover	Live in Montreux (1977) more music like this by Buddy Guy No blues tandem in recent memory has given more alternately brilliant and infuriating performances as the duo of Junior Wells and Buddy Guy. They can inspire or anger, stimulate or disgust, amaze or bore. They were in a great groove during the selections recorded at this concert for Isabel. They have been recently reissued with two bonus cuts as ... see all copies from $5.98! new only from $11.17!
22 view cover	St. Louis to Liverpool (1964) more music like this by Chuck Berry This album puts the lie to the popular myth that Chuck Berry's music started to fade away around the same time that the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, et al. emerged covering his stuff. His songwriting is as strong here as ever -- side one is packed with now-familiar fare like "Little Marie" (a sequel to "Memphis, Tennessee"), "No Particular Place ... see all copies from $8.66! new only from $8.66!
23 view cover	Blues Fallin' Down Like Rain (1998) more music like this by Kenny Neal After building an impressive catalog at Alligator, Kenny Neal switched to Telarc Blues with Blues Fallin' Down Like Rain. Some blues enthusiasts wondered if the Baton Rouge singer/guitarist would fare as well creatively at Telarc as he had at Alligator, but they needn't have worried, for this excellent CD is every bit as strong as his Alligator ... see all copies from $6.20! new only from $16.21!
24 view cover	The Things I Used to Do (1971) more music like this by Pee Wee Crayton Pee Wee Crayton, a popular L.A.-based blues singer and guitarist, recorded frequently between 1947-57 but this 1970 session was his first full album and ended an eight-year drought in the studios. At 55, Crayton performed some country-flavored tunes and soul ballads but is at his best on the simpler straightahead blues such as a spirited "Let the ... see all copies from $9.93! new only from $9.93!
25 view cover	Soul Fixin' Man (1994) more music like this by Luther Allison Soul Fixin' Man was blues guitarist/vocalist Luther Allison's first American recording in nearly 20 years. However, his domestic inactivity was not because Allison had stopped playing music. Far from it, since he was based in Paris and worked constantly on the European continent. A powerful player whose intensity on this set sometimes borders on ... see all copies from $7.75! new only from $16.03!
