1	Stax 50th Anniversary Celebration (2007) more music like this by Various Artists While it's true that this double-disc, 50-track mid-centennial anniversary celebration of the birth of Stax Records -- a label synonymous with Southern soul -- will not rival the three box sets issuing the company's complete singles, it's a killer document. Concord Records purchased the Stax catalog (which occurred when the company purchased ... see all copies from $11.90! new only from $13.09!
2	Guru [Universal] (2003) more music like this by Original Soundtrack The soundtrack to the Bollywood-meets-Hollywood comedy The Guru features a wide, sometimes dizzying array of sounds spanning British teen pop, show tunes, smooth vocal jazz, hip-hop, and, of course, authentic Bollywood music. While the album might be almost too diverse for its own good, most of the tracks share a similarly lively energy, whether ... see all copies from $5.99! new only from $16.48!
3	Zealous Records Presents: Soul Sides, Vol. 1 (2006) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $10.33! new only from $10.33!
4	The Complete Stax-Volt Soul Singles, Vol. 2: 1968-1971 (1993) more music like this by Various Artists The first Stax-Volt box was a monolith, standing as the definitive document of the labels and, therefore, gritty Southern soul. Its sequel, The Complete Stax-Volt Soul Singles, Vol. 2: 1968-1971 is considerably more problematic. Covering only four years compared to its predecessor, which showcased nine years, Vol. 2 contains 216 tracks, including ... see all copies from $107.36! new only from $107.36!
5	Stax Story (2000) more music like this by Various Artists The legendary Memphis soul label Stax's legacy is well-represented by this four-CD box set, which manages to do what many similar box retrospectives don't. That is to provide a well-balanced overview of a genre of music that mixes the essential hits with many noteworthy yet lesser-known singles and rarities, coming about as close as possible to ... see all copies from $45.80! new only from $45.80!
6	Atlantic Unearthed: Soul Sisters (2006) more music like this by Various Artists Atlantic Records (along with its Atco Records imprint) was pretty much the center of all things soul in the late '60s and early '70s, thanks in no small part to the label's recording and licensing agreements with Stax Records and the ever watchful eyes (and ears) of producer Jerry Wexler. This interesting set collects rare singles and previously ... see all copies from $9.49! new only from $10.52!
7	Live at the Berks Jazz Fest! (2007) more music like this by Soul Summit see all copies from $7.05! new only from $7.05!
8	Super Breaks: Essential Funk, Soul, & Jazz Samples and Breakbeats (1999) more music like this by Various Artists Like the rest of the Super Breaks series, the first volume is ostensibly built around records that have been sampled by hip-hoppers, but can really be enjoyed by anyone looking for some quality obscure soul funk. The 20 tracks here span the late 1960s to the late 1970s, balanced between little-known tracks by noted artists (Jackie Wilson, Isaac ... see all copies from $19.36! new only from $19.36!
9	Atlantic Sisters of Soul (1992) more music like this by Various Artists A fine collection of lesser-known female soul artists on Atlantic, including artists that aren't normally associated with the label, like Mary Wells and the Pointer Sisters. All of the songs were recorded in the late '60s and early '70s, and only three of the disc's 23 tracks scratched the R&B Top 20, although most of the tracks were good enough ... see all copies from $26.48!
10	The Stax Soul Sisters (1988) more music like this by Various Artists These fourteen slices of Southern soul from Stax feature some of the legendary label's many female vocalists, with Linda Lyndell's poppin' "What a Man" (later redone into a mega hit by Salt N' Pepa) as the most interesting cut. Memphis Queen Carla Thomas is ultra soulful on "Guide Me Well," which begins with a spoken narrative; and Mavis Staples ... see all copies from $15.00! new only from $15.00!

12 view cover	Stax 50th Collection (2008) more music like this by Various Artists Madacy forgoes their usual bottom-of-the-barrel reissues in favor of this three-disc set of "nothing but the hits" classics from Stax. There are 52 cuts from all over the Stax historical rainbow, ranging from obvious hits like Otis Redding's "(Sittin' On) The Dock of the Bay" to less obvious but equally fine selections like the Mad Lads' version ... see all copies from $16.16! new only from $16.16!
