1	You Are My Little Bird (2006) more music like this by Elizabeth Mitchell Most commercial children's music seems to be made under the assumption that youngsters are incapable of appreciating subtlety and need to be aurally slapped about the face with melodic and lyrical repetition in order to make sense of what they're hearing. Elizabeth Mitchell is an educator and musician who thankfully knows better; as the lead ... see all copies from $10.76! new only from $10.76!
2	The Velvet Underground (1969) more music like this by The Velvet Underground Upon first release, the Velvet Underground's self-titled third album must have surprised their fans nearly as much as their first two albums shocked the few mainstream music fans who heard them. After testing the limits of how musically and thematically challenging rock could be on Velvet Underground & Nico and White Light/White Heat, this 1969 ... see all copies from $8.66! new only from $8.66!
3	The Bride Stripped Bare (1978) more music like this by Bryan Ferry When Jerry Hall, front-cover model on Roxy's Siren, left Ferry for Mick Jagger, his response was this interesting album, not a full success but by no means a washout. In part Ferry returned to the model of his solo work before In Your Mind, with half the tracks being covers of rock and soul classics. Thus, Sam and Dave's "Hold On (I'm Coming)," Al ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $2.40!
4	1969: Velvet Underground Live, Vol. 1 (1974) more music like this by The Velvet Underground The Velvet Underground were little more than a rumor when Lou Reed left the band in 1970, but by 1974, thanks to Reed's success as a solo artist, the Velvets had become a bona fide cult item, and that year Mercury Records released a two-record set compiled from tapes from shows in Dallas and San Francisco entitled 1969: Velvet Underground Live. ... see all copies from $8.66! new only from $8.66!
5	Only Life (1988) more music like this by The Feelies With an unchanged lineup but more attention due to their A&M deal, the Feelies hit the jackpot with their third album, a warm, inviting collection that finally addresses the endless Lou Reed comparisons with a cover of his "What Goes On." With its clearer feeling and peppier overall delivery, it avoids simply cloning the original arrangement and ... see all copies from $6.97! new only from $13.96!
6	Chronicles (2005) more music like this by The Velvet Underground By this point in rock history, it's a given that the Velvet Underground were one of the most important and influential American bands of all time, and that the four studio albums they recorded between 1966 and 1970 are brilliant and essential listening. The first three of those albums -- The Velvet Underground & Nico, White Light/White Heat, and ... see all copies from $27.26! new only from $27.26!
7	Gold (2005) more music like this by The Velvet Underground At this point in music history, it's become a given that the Velvet Underground were one of the most important and innovative rock bands of their era, and that the four albums they released during their lifespan rank with the most challenging and satisfying work in the rock canon. For beginners and dabblers, though, this invites the question of ... see all copies from $19.19! new only from $19.19!
8	An Introduction to the Velvet Underground (2001) more music like this by The Velvet Underground Wow, at the dawn of the 21st century does anyone really need An Introduction to the Velvet Underground? The answer is probably yes, but it's difficult to imagine. This is one of several VU compilations out there, and despite some obvious shortcomings, it's one of the better ones. At 16 tracks, it's a better deal than the 11-track 20th Century ... see all copies from $16.90! new only from $16.90!
9	More Songs About Buildings and Cows (1999) more music like this by The Meat Purveyors This disc finds the bluegrass outfit the Meat Purveyors focusing more on original material, with fun songs like "Tallboy" and "Little White Pills." They also recast the Velvet Underground nugget "What Goes On" as a high-stepping breakdown. A spare, energetic effort. Tim Sheridan, All Music Guide see all copies from $29.89!
10	20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of the Velvet Underground (2000) more music like this by Velvet Underground It seems rather silly for the ultimate cult band to have a volume of Universal's 20th Century Masters: The Millennium Collection series, since even if the Velvet Underground were often song oriented, they were never singles oriented, and if this series is anything, it's singles oriented. That doesn't mean VU's 20th Century Masters doesn't work, ... see all copies from $4.49! new only from $8.66!
11 view cover	Dils Dils Dils (2001) more music like this by Dils The Dils' studio productions, as primitive as they were, were so much better sounding than the wealth of live material that's been issued of the band that it doesn't make sense to pick up an anthology that includes most, but not all, of those studio tracks. That's what you get on Dils Dils Dils, which has six of their eight studio songs, but is ... see all copies from $12.57! new only from $12.57!
12 view cover	The Best of the Velvet Underground: Words and Music of Lou Reed (1989) more music like this by The Velvet Underground The Best of the Velvet Underground: Words and Music of Lou Reed is a 15-track summary of The Velvets' career, borrowing heavily from the debut (six tracks) and featuring "Sweet Jane" and "Rock & Roll," licensed from Atlantic. William Ruhlmann, All Music Guide see all copies from $1.99!
13 view cover	Playlist Plus (2008) more music like this by The Velvet Underground The Velvet Underground entry in Universal's environmentally friendly, three-disc Playlist Plus series features 38 tracks culled from the group's four studio albums, as well as cuts taken from solo Nico and Lou Reed records (sadly, no solo John Cale). For the most part, Velvet Underground & Nico, White Light/White Heat, Velvet Underground, and ... see all copies from $25.61! new only from $25.61!
14 view cover	Rock Legends (2008) more music like this by The Velvet Underground Polydor's Rock Legends collects 15 tracks from proto-punk icons the Velvet Underground, touching on each of the band's four classic albums. A single-disc VU anthology such as this has been attempted before, most notably in 2006 on the 18-track Very Best of the Velvet Underground. Both collections are nearly identical, with the latter winning out ... see all copies from $13.14! new only from $13.14!
15	1969: Velvet Underground Live (1974) more music like this by The Velvet Underground Sadly, outside of a handful of audience tapes of extremely variable fidelity, no one thought to make a live recording of The Velvet Underground during their 1967-68 peak period with John Cale prodding Lou Reed into remarkable flights of noise rock fancy. However, in 1969 a VU fan who was a recording engineer brought a reel-to-reel tape machine to ... see all copies from $31.71! new only from $31.71!
16 view cover	The Platinum Collection (2004) more music like this by Bryan Ferry/Roxy Music Along with Queen, Roxy Music started life as a glam band with a heavy prog rock edge before embarking on a long and successful career that saw a variety of musical styles touched upon. And while quite a few single-disc Roxy Music compilations have been released over the years (the best probably being the 1986 collection, Street Life: 20 Greatest ... see all copies from $27.50! new only from $27.50!
17 view cover	Classic Velvet Underground: The Universal Masters Collection (2000) more music like this by Velvet Underground With only 11 tracks, this Universal Masters Collection is a pretty solid little Velvet Underground compilation. There's plenty missing, but what's here is not only solid, but offers a great sampler of the kind of power and diversity the band had in its heyday -- and even for a few minutes after. Thankfully, the producers offer an unedited, 17 ... see all copies from $13.34! new only from $13.34!
18 view cover	The Very Best of the Velvet Underground (2006) more music like this by The Velvet Underground Since 1990 or so, every few years someone at whatever corporate entity that happens to own the bulk of the Velvet Underground's catalog decides to take a stab at compiling a single-disc "greatest-hits" album from the band's wildly influential body of work, and in 2006 the British branch of Universal/Polydor presented the latest entry in this ... see all copies from $13.34! new only from $13.34!
19 view cover	Bootleg Series, Vol. 1: The Quine Tapes (2001) more music like this by The Velvet Underground Bootleg Series, Vol. 1: The Quine Tapes is a three-CD compilation of live performances from the Velvet Underground. This is likewise the first in presumably a series of recordings documenting the band's concert visage throughout their brief history. This volume is derived from the semi-legit and non-professional recordings of Robert Quine (guitar) ... see all copies from $27.16! new only from $27.16!
20 view cover	Control [Original Soundtrack] (2007) more music like this by Original Soundtrack Initial screenings of Control were met with no short amount of praise, including a standing ovation at Cannes and approval from each surviving member of Joy Division, so it is not a surprise that the film's soundtrack -- released the same day as Rhino's Joy Division "collector's edition" (not to be confused with "deluxe edition") reissues of ... see all copies from $16.27! new only from $16.27!
21 view cover	New York, New York (1998) more music like this by The Dictators New York, New York is a CD reissue of the 1981 Dictators live album Live: Fuck 'Em If They Can't Take a Joke with three bonus tracks, among them the favorite "Master Race Rock." In his new liner notes, bassist/vocalist/songwriter Adny (or Andy) Shernoff takes issue with Richard Meltzer's original liner notes, denying that the recording, made on ... see all copies from $15.49! new only from $15.49!
22 view cover	Spaceland and Part Time Punks Present: The Spires as Velvet Underground (2008) by The Spires The title says it all: Spaceland and Part Time Punks Present: The Spires as the Velvet Underground is a live album recorded at a one-off gig on April Fools Day 2007, where the Los Angeles-based duo of guitarist Jason Bays and drummer Colleen Coffey (with a second guitarist and bassist on hand to complete the picture) played a full set of Velvet ... see all copies from $13.71! new only from $13.71!
