1	Guilty (1980) more music like this by Barbra Streisand The biggest selling album of Barbra Streisand's career is also one of her least characteristic. The album was written and produced by Barry Gibb in association with his brothers and the producers of the Bee Gees, and in essence it sounds like a post-Saturday Night Fever Bee Gees album with vocals by Streisand. Gibb adapted his usual style somewhat ... see all copies from $2.07! new only from $8.97!
2	A Collection: Greatest Hits...and More (1989) more music like this by Barbra Streisand Like Memories, A Collection: Greatest Hits...and More was an odd compilation, not quite a hits set, though it gathered up the big hits not heard on the earlier record -- "The Main Event/Fight," "Woman in Love," "Guilty," "What Kind of Fool" -- since it also seemed to be a grab bag, including a few stray album tracks, recycling the two new songs ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $4.95!
3	16 Most Requested Songs (1989) more music like this by Robert Goulet 16 Most Requested Songs is a midline-priced collection that spotlights many of Robert Goulet's best-known and most popular performances for Columbia Records, including "If Ever I Would Leave You," "What Now My Love," "Real Live Girl," "If I Ruled the World," "Take Me In Your Arms," "Sunrise Sunset," "For Once In My Life," "Somewhere My Love," "Who ... see all copies from $3.62! new only from $9.22!
4	The Definitive Collection (2006) more music like this by Sammy Davis, Jr. Sammy Davis, Jr. was an outsized talent. Whether dancing or singing or acting (or drumming, or doing impersonations), he spent more energy, carried more emotion, and involved himself more deeply in his performances than any other artist of his caliber. His earliest hit material -- "Something's Gotta Give," "Love Me or Leave Me," "That Old Black ... see all copies from $10.22! new only from $10.22!
5	Greatest Hits (2007) by Linda Eder see all copies from $6.78! new only from $10.33!
6	The Very Best of Nancy Wilson: The Capitol Recordings 1960-1976 (2007) more music like this by Nancy Wilson The career of Nancy Wilson has been compiled many times and in many ways, but never like this. Focusing in-depth on her Capitol recordings during the 15 years of her prime, this three-disc set is a wonderful collection for those who appreciate Wilson's ability to combine Broadway power and finesse with jazz rhythm (and a certain degree of ... see all copies from $22.24! new only from $22.24!
7	Live and Swingin': The Ultimate Rat Pack Collection [CD & DVD] (2003) more music like this by The Rat Pack As a double-dose audiovisual document of the Rat Pack, this two-disc package -- one a CD, one a DVD -- more than lives up to its title. Disc one is an audio-only CD culled from performances given by Dean Martin, Frank Sinatra, and Sammy Davis, Jr. at a Chicago nightclub between November 26 and December 2, 1962, over half of which is previously ... see all copies from $18.68! new only from $18.68!
8	Written in Rock: The Rick Springfield Anthology (2005) more music like this by Rick Springfield Rick Springfield deserves better than being written off as nothing more than a slight teen idol, as he so frequently is. Of course, it's easy to see why he's been pegged as nothing more than teenybopper fodder. He had pinup good looks, which led him to a starring role as Dr. Noah Drake on the soap opera General Hospital, which was his regular gig ... see all copies from $21.03! new only from $21.03!
9	One Voice (1987) more music like this by Barbra Streisand For her first live recording in more than 14 years (a benefit held in her backyard with tickets at $5,000.00 dollars a throw), Barbra Streisand reviewed her work in the interim, singing her chart-topping themes from the movies The Way We Were and A Star Is Born and choosing material from such memorable projects as Guilty (for which Barry Gibb got ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $5.95!
10	Hits and Highways Ahead (1999) more music like this by Lee Roy Parnell Hits and Highways Ahead compiles the majority of Lee Roy Parnell's hits from his first five albums, adding two new songs ("She Won't Be Lonely Long," "Long Way to Fall") plus "John the Revelator," taken fro, the various-artists album Peace in the Valley: A Country Music Journey Through Gospel. It isn't quite definitive -- not only are there a ... see all copies from $2.05! new only from $5.11!
11 view cover	Robert Goulet's Greatest Hits (1969) more music like this by Robert Goulet Robert Goulet's only Top 40 pop hit was "My Love, Forgive Me (Amore, Scusami)," which makes the "greatest-hits" concept dodgy, and Columbia Records, his label starting in 1961, doesn't bother to include his Top Five easy listening hit, "Come Back to Me, My Love" from On a Clear Day You Can See Forever, or most of his other easy listening hits for ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $5.25!
12 view cover	Broadway My Way (2003) more music like this by Linda Eder Almost exactly one year after her last foray into the pop music realm with Gold, Linda Eder returns to the Broadway style that made her a sensation with this 13-track tribute to the Great White Way. Tackling such famous songs as "On the Street Where You Live" from My Fair Lady, "Some People" from Gypsy, "Edelweiss" from The Sound of Music, and "I ... see all copies from $4.88! new only from $16.52!
13 view cover	Greatest Hits (1989) more music like this by Rick Springfield Rick Springfield contributed to some of the most congenial sounding pop that braced radio throughout the 1980s. With 17 singles gracing the Top 40 charts, it was evident that both his charming persona and his hook-induced choruses led to his successful ten-year stint. While his music is lyrical fluff, it's the friendly guitar riffs and contagious ... see all copies from $2.95!
14 view cover	Something Special for Young Lovers (1964) more music like this by Ray Charles Singers While the name may remain the same, this Ray Charles has no connections whatsoever to the R&B legend of "Georgia on My Mind" and "What'd I Say" fame. Instead -- and by quite a contrast -- Charles Raymond Offenberg was primarily known for his easy listening and lush adult-oriented remakes of standards from the first half of the 20th century. The ... see all copies from $8.93! new only from $8.93!
15 view cover	Tough All Over (2005) more music like this by Gary Allan Gary Allan has been all over the country map since he began recording in 1996. He's made slick Nash Vegas records, hard honky tonk records, and ballad records. With Tough All Over, he's made enough of a mark that he gets to release the album he's wanted to make all along. Evidence is in the title cut, which opens the set. Written by Odie Blackmon ... see all copies from $2.98! new only from $4.98!
16 view cover	Here & Now!/New Look! (2002) more music like this by George Shearing see all copies from $9.28! new only from $9.28!
17 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 $4.59! new only from $4.59!
18 view cover	The Broadway I Love (1991) more music like this by Placido Domingo see all copies from $5.99! new only from $5.99!
19 view cover	You Make Me Feel So Young (1964) more music like this by Ray Conniff You Make Me Feel So Young is an unusually brassy and bombastic outing for Ray Conniff. The material is a hodgepodge of pop and jazz standards and a few film themes. Conniff graces the disc with one of his rare clavietta solos on "My Old Flame," while "An Affair to Remember" provides an uncharacteristic showcase for Ernie Hughes' piano. The mood ... see all copies from $4.88!
20 view cover	This Time by Basie: Hits of the 50's (1963) more music like this by Count Basie Three decades after the fact, people looking at releases like This Time by Basie would tend to dismiss it as pandering, Count Basie doing a "pops"-type outing -- the cheesy cover art even emphasized the songs over Basie and his band. Nothing could be further from the truth, however -- this 16-song release reveals a wonderful body of work, and ... see all copies from $9.20! new only from $9.20!
21 view cover	Saturday Night Fever [London Cast] (1999) more music like this by Original Cast Recording There may have been stranger stage musicals than Saturday Night Fever -- perhaps Footloose is one of them -- but it's harder to think of a cast recording that is as curiously flat as the London Cast's 1999 stage adaptation of the 1977 classic. That's because the core of the musical is based on pop songs that everyone knows by heart -- the know the ... see all copies from $2.52! new only from $10.86!
22 view cover	Hey Girl, Don't Bother Me (1964) more music like this by The Tams see all copies from $5.74! new only from $5.74!
23 view cover	The Sounds of '66 (1966) more music like this by Sammy Davis, Jr./Buddy Rich If a pop singer is backed by a jazz band, he/she doesn't automatically turn into a jazz singer -- having jazz accompaniment doesn't necessarily make you jazz. But if a pop singer likes to swing, having jazz accompaniment is certainly a plus. Like Frank Sinatra and Tony Bennett, Sammy Davis, Jr. was a jazz-influenced pop singer who knew how to ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $10.29!
24 view cover	The Solo Sessions, Vol. 1 (1963) more music like this by Bill Evans In need of money and wanting to quickly fulfill his contractual obligations to Riverside, Bill Evans recorded two albums worth of solos in one day. The emotional and rather stark music was not initially released until the late '80s although it is now available on a pair of CDs. Due to the lack of much mood or tempo variation, this particular set ... see all copies from $8.53! new only from $8.53!
25 view cover	Love Without Mercy (1992) more music like this by Lee Roy Parnell For his second album, Parnell dropped the horns and gave his slide guitar a bigger role. He was still a Texas rocker disguised by a pedal steel, but the album produced three Top 10 hits -- "Love Without Mercy," "What Kind of Fool Do You Think I Am," and "Tender Moment." Brian Mansfield, All Music Guide see all copies from $1.99!
