1	The Very Best of the Searchers [Sanctuary] (2002) more music like this by The Searchers Featuring a wide selection of the Searchers' more well-known moments, this 2002 DVD audio collection will be of most interest to those new to the driving quasi-surf sounds of this band from Liverpool, England. Those seeking a more comprehensive look will probably be better off with the 56-track, two-CD 40th Anniversary Collection released by ... see all copies from $6.52! new only from $8.08!
2	Marianne Faithfull (1965) more music like this by Marianne Faithfull Her erratic, self-titled debut features lovely baroque arrangements by Mike Leander and decent tunes like "As Tears Go By," and Jackie DeShannon's "Come and Stay With Me" and "In My Time of Sorrow," and Bacharach/David's "If I Never Get to Love You," as well as fairly crummy covers of hits by the Beatles, Herman's Hermits, and Petula Clark. Look ... see all copies from $5.75! new only from $5.75!
3	Rare, Live & Classic [Box] (1993) more music like this by Joan Baez Spanning three discs, the box set Rare, Live & Classic is an odd mix of Joan Baez's best-known songs and rarities. For the hardcore collector, there are plenty of interesting items here, including previously unreleased duets with Bob Dylan, Donovan, Bill Wood, and Jeffrey Shurtleff, but for the casual fan, there's too much material; they would be ... see all copies from $14.95! new only from $25.00!
4	Ear to the Ground (2000) more music like this by Malvina Reynolds Although the scope of this anthology is wide, it shouldn't be mistaken for a definitive best-of retrospective. All of the selections are taken from albums released on Reynolds' own Cassandra label between 1970 and 1980, with the addition of a couple of spoken-word introductions from Susan Wengraf's film on the singer, Love It Like a Fool. That ... see all copies from $12.04! new only from $12.04!
5	Joan Baez in Concert, Pt. 1 [Bonus Tracks] (2002) more music like this by Joan Baez Joan Baez in Concert, Pt. 1, Baezs third widely distributed album, marked the apex of her success and influence as a traditional folksinger, her repertoire still almost wholly comprised of traditional folk songs delivered with only her own guitar as accompaniment. Actually recorded at various concerts, the album was phenomenal success, reaching ... see all copies from $15.29! new only from $15.29!
6	The Seekers Complete (1997) more music like this by The Seekers Five CDs on the Seekers may seem like overkill, and the $70 list price may provoke an "in-your-dreams" response even from fans. But this set works -- one listen fully justifies it on musical terms; the cost is only a little higher than comparable five-disc sets, and the unique range of material makes it a bargain. The set is broken up into five ... see all copies from $74.65! new only from $74.65!
7	Joan Baez in Concert (1976) more music like this by Joan Baez A vibrant concert recording with a radiant sound, humor, and topicality. Bruce Eder, All Music Guide see all copies from $4.74! new only from $14.01!
8	They Call Us Au Go-Go Singers (1964) more music like this by The Au Go-Go Singers 1964, being the year of The Beatles, was also the very end of the folk group phenomenon. After the success of groups such as The Serendipity Singers and The New Christy Minstrels, there were countless 'clone groups', and indeed, The Au Go-Go Singers were one. However, the one thing that makes them interesting is the fact that they contained two ... see all copies from $12.55! new only from $12.55!
9	The Definitive Pye Collection (2004) more music like this by The Searchers It used to be, with reissues of the Searchers' classic Pye Records sides, that the challenge was getting them to sound good. Since 20-bit and 24-bit remastering have become the norm, however, the only challenge for Sanctuary Records (or the Sequel and Castle Records imprints) seems to be how inexpensive they can make the group's U.K. CDs, and also ... see all copies from $22.08! new only from $22.08!
10	Best of Broadside 1962-1988 (2000) more music like this by Various Artists From the early '60s to the late '80s, Broadside magazine printed numerous topical songs by contemporary writers, in addition to articles and commentary. By far the most influential years of its life span were the earliest ones, in the early to mid-'60s, when it helped steer the folk movement toward original material that directly addressed modern ... see all copies from $35.20! new only from $35.20!
11 view cover	The Very Best of the Searchers [Metro] (2006) more music like this by The Searchers Had they not been overshadowed by that other Liverpool band, the Searchers might have been better remembered today -- certainly, they deserve to be. Alas, only those with the sharpest of memories seem to recall the '60s quartet's solid, if brief, string of pop/rock gems, full of glistening 12-string guitars, sweet vocal harmonies, and a classy ... see all copies from $13.27! new only from $13.27!
12 view cover	The British Are Coming [Box Set] (2003) more music like this by Various Artists The British assault on America in the early-to-mid-'60s was a kinder, gentler invasion, an event that involved guitars, mop-tops, and rock-n-roll as opposed to guns and tanks. Furthermore, the invading forces met no resistance. Instead, American popular culture ecstatically embraced the new music because it reminded them of how much fun rock had ... see all copies from $27.68! new only from $27.68!
13 view cover	No Closing Chord: The Songs of Malvina Reynolds (2000) more music like this by Rosalie Sorrels No Closing Chord marks the centennial celebration of the birth of folk songwriter Malvina Reynolds who is known primarily for penning the songs "Little Boxes," a hit for Pete Seeger, and "What Have They Done to the Rain" for the Seekers. Singing 13 of Reynolds's most loved songs is fellow folk legend Rosalie Sorrels. There is a deep connection ... see all copies from $14.51! new only from $14.51!
14 view cover	The Essential Collection (2005) more music like this by The Searchers see all copies from $18.88! new only from $18.88!
15 view cover	Sings the Truth (196?) more music like this by Malvina Reynolds How many other musicians made their major-label recording debuts as grandmothers in their mid-sixties, as Malvina Reynolds did on this circa late-1966/early-1967 LP, produced by John Hammond? But those were different times, which saw ridiculously uncommercial, avowedly antiestablishment albums released by the labels of large corporations. And this ... see all copies from $14.18! new only from $14.18!
16 view cover	BBC Sessions (2004) more music like this by The Searchers Though this double-CD collection presents 30 songs recorded by the Searchers for BBC sessions, it actually spans a relatively small portion of their career, from January 1965 to March 1967 (with over half the material coming from 1965 alone). The band recorded yet more BBC sessions, but these are the only ones (except for a few similar duplicate ... see all copies from $10.68! new only from $10.68!
17 view cover	30th Anniversary Collection (1992) more music like this by The Searchers Although it's missing one or two fairly strong tracks, this three-CD, 84-song set is a pretty definitive collection of the group's best '60s material for those who want to go beyond the greatest hits. Besides including all of their key A- and B-sides, it has an entire disc of their best '60s album tracks. The rarities disc includes foreign ... see all copies from $40.99! new only from $40.99!
18 view cover	The Second Take: The Complete RCA/UK Recordings (1999) more music like this by The Searchers There are worse things a once-great band can do than break up. They can NOT break up, and then try to regain lost fame by recreating their finest moments using all the benefits of modern pop technology -- like this. By 1971, Merseybeat veterans the Searchers were reduced to just a couple of founding members and a spot recycling their old hits on ... see all copies from $10.67! new only from $10.67!
19 view cover	Enviromental Songs for Kids (1999) more music like this by Coco Kallis see all copies from $14.61! new only from $14.61!
20 view cover	Voice of an Angel (1964) more music like this by Catherine McKinnon see all copies from $9.00! new only from $10.32!
21 view cover	Most of the Searchers (1994) more music like this by The Searchers Among its 20 tracks, this Australian compilation contains all 12 of the Searchers' U.K. Top 40 hits and all seven of their U.S. Top 40 hits, which in some cases are not the same songs. For example, the group's debut British single, the chart-topping "Sweets for My Sweet," never charted in America, while their biggest U.S. hit, "Love Potion Number ... see all copies from $7.07! new only from $7.07!
22 view cover	40th Anniversary Collection (2003) more music like this by The Searchers This reviewer is usually loathe to give compilation albums the highest rating, as they have an unfair advantage over original albums; and it's not as though there aren't already good multi-CD sets on the Searchers, including their 30th Anniversary Collection from Sequel Records. But this two-disc, 56-song collection goes into territory where the ... see all copies from $33.19! new only from $33.19!
