1	Come Away with Me (2002) more music like this by Norah Jones Norah Jones' debut on Blue Note is a mellow, acoustic pop affair with soul and country overtones, immaculately produced by the great Arif Mardin. (It's pretty much an open secret that the 22-year-old vocalist and pianist is the daughter of Ravi Shankar.) Jones is not quite a jazz singer, but she is joined by some highly regarded jazz talent: ... see all copies from $3.00! new only from $16.51!
2	For the Roses (1972) more music like this by Joni Mitchell On For the Roses, Joni Mitchell began to explore jazz and other influences in earnest. As one might expect from a transitional album, there is a lot of stylistic ground explored, including straight folk selections using guitar ("For the Roses") and piano ("Banquet," "See You Sometime," "Lesson in Survival") overtly jazzy numbers ("Barangrill," ... see all copies from $5.00! new only from $10.76!
3	Love Actually (2003) more music like this by Original Soundtrack The über-romantic comedy Love Actually has an über-romantic comedy soundtrack to match, collecting love songs old and new as well as sassy and empowering tunes. Kelly Clarkson's "The Trouble With Love Is" manages to be romantic, sassy, and empowering all at once, with her vocals reflecting their urban ballad surroundings. An emphasis on songs from ... see all copies from $5.65! new only from $13.53!
4	Hits (1996) more music like this by Joni Mitchell The album is a long overdue anthology of one of Canada's most celebrated ex-pats, Joni Mitchell. She sanctioned the release only on the condition that she be allowed to compile companion album Misses. While the 15-strong Hits focuses on the her earlier folk-pop crossover successes, many made famous initially by others ("Both Sides Now," "Woodstock ... see all copies from $2.95! new only from $16.52!
5	Welcome Back My Friends to the Show That Never Ends (1974) more music like this by Emerson, Lake & Palmer Upon its release, the 1973 LP Brain Salad Surgery had been hailed as Emerson, Lake & Palmer's masterpiece. A long tour ensued that left the trio flushed and begging for time off. Before disbanding for three years, they assembled a three-LP live set (something of a badge of achievement at the time, earned by Yes in 1973 with Yessongs and, somewhat ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $23.55!
6	Vitamin C (1999) more music like this by Vitamin C Vitamin C is the nom de plume for singer Colleen Fitzpatrick, who fronted Eve's Plum for two very good, and overlooked, albums released by 550 Music in the mid-'90s. Here she steps out on her own for a self-titled solo debut that is every bit as engaging as those two releases and more so. The album shows a wider range stylistically from ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $10.76!
7	Remixed & Reimagined (2006) more music like this by Nina Simone Nina Simone's sole U.S. pop hit, "I Loves You, Porgy," was released in 1959; too black for American white audiences, she found more favor abroad. In Britain, for example, she placed five singles in the charts and had six hits; "I Put a Spell on You" charted twice. Back in the States in more recent times, the electro scene began delving ever deeper ... see all copies from $16.67! new only from $16.67!
8	So Wrong, It's Right (2007) more music like this by All Time Low see all copies from $12.56! new only from $12.56!
9	Mountain Music (1982) more music like this by Alabama On their third album, 1982's Mountain Music, Alabama hit their stride, streamlining the rough edges out of their sound and turning into a well-oiled hit machine. Here, when they stretch out it's on the nearly seven-minute "Changes Comin' On," which doesn't jam like Southern rock but instead has a smooth groove that veers close to soft rock. Of ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $2.16!
10	Abattoir Blues Tour [2CD/2DVD] (2007) more music like this by Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds It's got all the look of "deluxe" written on it, the thick, book-like black cover with an inset photo of frontman Nick Cave doing his flip to wig city dance -- Bad Seeds fans don't need much encouragement to rush out and pick up something by St. Nick and his motley crew of bent ministers of melody, and there's good reason. This double-DVD/double ... see all copies from $26.60! new only from $26.60!
11 view cover	The Very Best of Nina Simone: Sugar in My Bowl 1967-1972 (1998) more music like this by Nina Simone Nina Simone recorded for RCA Records between 1967 and 1972. While she was in fine form during those years, she didn't make her best records there, and sounded particularly ill at ease whenever she did pop-rock covers, which was more often than she should. However, these songs are selling points for a certain audience, namely the audience RCA is ... see all copies from $30.13! new only from $30.13!
12 view cover	Brain Salad Surgery [Shout! Factory Bonus Tracks] (2007) more music like this by Emerson, Lake & Palmer Emerson, Lake & Palmer's most successful and well-realized album (after their first), and their most ambitious as a group, as well as their loudest, Brain Salad Surgery is also their most electronic sounding one. The main focus, thanks to the three-part "Karn Evil 9," is sci-fi rock, approached with a volume and vengeance that stretched the art ... see all copies from $13.53! new only from $13.53!
13 view cover	Very Necessary (1993) more music like this by Salt-N-Pepa Salt-N-Pepa exhibited a lot of growth on Blacks' Magic (1990), their third album and, by far, best to date. For their follow-up, Very Necessary, released a long three and a half years later, in 1993, the ladies delivered a fairly similar album. Like its predecessor, Very Necessary boasts a pair of major hits ("Whatta Man," "Shoop") and a lot of ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $13.42!
14 view cover	Brain Salad Surgery (1973) more music like this by Emerson, Lake & Palmer Emerson, Lake & Palmer's most successful and well-realized album (after their first), and their most ambitious as a group, as well as their loudest, Brain Salad Surgery is also their most electronic sounding one. The main focus, thanks to the three-part "Karn Evil 9," is sci-fi rock, approached with a volume and vengeance that stretched the art ... see all copies from $2.79! new only from $23.39!
15 view cover	Miles of Aisles (1974) more music like this by Joni Mitchell & the L.A. Express Like most live albums, this two-record set was a profit-taking release on which the artist re-presented many of her old songs for a new acceptance now that she had a larger pop audience. Backed by the pop-jazz ensemble the L.A. Express Mitchell reprised the best from her first five albums, pointedly ignoring Court and Spark, and including two new ... see all copies from $4.99! new only from $10.76!
16 view cover	Everywhere (1997) more music like this by Tim McGraw Everywhere, Tim McGraw's fourth album, finds the vocalist in a bit of a rut, following the same formula of slick ballads and measured rockers that made his second record, Not a Moment Too Soon, a blockbuster success. That's not necessarily a bad thing, since he remains an appealing singer when he has the right material, such as on the single "It's ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
17 view cover	12 Classics (2003) more music like this by Ed Bruce Varese Sarabande's 12 Classics is not a collection of Ed Bruce's original hits. As explained in small type on the back cover, this collection "contains new recordings of Ed Bruce's greatest hits, recorded April 1997," so it's not really a good substitution for Varese's regrettably out of print 18-track 1995 collection The Best of Ed Bruce, ... see all copies from $10.80! new only from $10.80!
18 view cover	Knock on the Sky (2002) more music like this by SHeDAISY The exuberance of SHeDAISY practically leaps off this disc, thanks to a dream marriage of savvy, catchy writing, crisp instrumental backup, and inspired solo and harmony singing. There's a sense that the session veterans called in for this one went above and beyond what was expected; on "Man Goin' Down" and the vamp at the end of "Get Over ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $3.01!
19 view cover	An Education in Rebellion (2000) more music like this by The Union Underground While their sonic punch is undeniable, blending guitar skronk with Bryan Scott's snarled vocals, the rebellious posing of songs like "Revolution Man" comes off as a calculated marketing ploy rather than true agitation. Rather than start a revolution, this is music that will likely lead to skateboarding and headbanging. Tim Sheridan, All Music ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $4.97!
20 view cover	Soul on Top (1970) more music like this by James Brown If Count Basie had hired James Brown to replace Joe Williams as his featured male vocalist, what would the results have sounded like? Brown offers some suggestions on Soul on Top, which finds the Godfather of Soul making an intriguing detour into jazz-minded big-band territory. Recorded in 1969 and reissued on CD in 2004, Soul on Top unites Brown ... see all copies from $7.04! new only from $7.04!
21 view cover	Remote Control (1979) more music like this by The Tubes After stunning the rock world with their memorable debut in 1975, the Tubes ran into trouble. Although Young And Rich and Now had fine moments, they were uneven and left many rock pundits wondering if the Tubes had anything to offer besides shock value. They got their answer with the release of Remote Control, a cohesive and surprisingly ... see all copies from $9.28! new only from $9.28!
22 view cover	Hitch (2005) more music like this by Original Soundtrack The soundtrack to Will Smith's 2005 theatrical release of the same name features a brilliant survey of soul and R&B over the past three decades. Nu-soul, new jack, classic soul, Motown, disco, and hip-hop all make appearances in one form or another, with the first three songs being from relatively new artists Amerie, John Legend, and Kelly Rowland ... see all copies from $2.74! new only from $11.12!
23 view cover	Kevin Lyttle (2004) more music like this by Kevin Lyttle The travel bureau of St. Vincent -- the island soca singer Kevin Lyttle hails from -- claims their paradise has "More Fun! More Flair! More Fantasy!" Same could be said of Kevin Lyttle's debut; just put a couple extra exclamation points after "Fantasy." Lyttle's breezy and dreamy voice supplies the flair, lilting lightly over a musical background ... see all copies from $4.98! new only from $6.75!
24 view cover	So Natural (1993) more music like this by Lisa Stansfield After achieving minor success as the lead singer of the U.K. trio Blue Zone and providing vocals for Coldcut's dancefloor classic "People Hold On," Lisa Stansfield established herself as a solo artist with her immensely successful 1989 debut album Affection. The combination of lush, Barry White-influenced arrangements and Stansfield's soulful ... see all copies from $9.51!
25 view cover	Iron Age (1981) more music like this by Mother's Finest Whether Mother's Finest was more rock-minded or R&B-minded on a particular album usually had a lot to do with what label the band was recording for at the time and who was in charge in the A&R department. Some A&R men wanted Mother's Finest to be an urban contemporary act and cater to black radio's tastes, but on Iron Age, MF was clearly going ... see all copies from $3.98! new only from $12.89!
