1	Two Against Nature (2000) more music like this by Steely Dan Notorious for shunning concert performances, Steely Dan's improbable live reunion in the mid-'90s eventually turned into a full-fledged reunion album. Since Steely Dan fans went two decades without even the hope of a new record, the very prospect was a delight, but it was also a little worrying, since a botched comeback would tarnish the band's ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $5.00!
2	The Rolling Stones, Now! (1965) more music like this by The Rolling Stones Although their third American album was patched together (in the usual British Invasion tradition) from a variety of sources, it's their best early R&B-oriented effort. Most of the Stones' early albums suffer from three or four very weak cuts; Now! is almost uniformly strong start-to-finish, the emphasis on some of their blackest material. The ... see all copies from $7.89! new only from $10.71!
3	Future Games (1971) more music like this by Fleetwood Mac By the time of this album's release, Jeremy Spencer had been replaced by Bob Welch and Christine McVie had begun to assert herself more as a singer and songwriter. The result is a distinct move toward folk-rock and pop; Future Games sounds almost nothing like Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac. Welch's eight-minute title track has one of his ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $8.69!
4	Stations of the Crass (1979) more music like this by Crass "They said that we were trash/Well the name is Crass, not Clash." So goes the opening of the coruscating "White Punks on Hope," and with Stations Crass takes things to an even more vicious level than on Feeding. The opening yelps and screams from Ignorant on "Mother Earth" over a slow-building burn show that there was already much more to Crass ... see all copies from $9.09! new only from $9.09!
5	Foghat (Rock and Roll) (1973) more music like this by Foghat Foghat's second album finds the group working its way towards the fusion of blues and hard rock that would make them an arena rock favorite. They were not yet the stadium kings they would soon become, but Rock and Roll benefits from a muscular production that gives the band a muscular sound worthy of their impressive live act. A good example is ... see all copies from $9.07! new only from $9.07!
6	Into the Now (2004) more music like this by Tesla Classic hard rockers Tesla were one of those bands that reluctantly hitched a ride on the hair metal bandwagon of the late '80s, only to get bum-rapped on the early-'90s flip side when their career was undeservedly sunk alongside those flaming chunks of hairspray and mascara. Unable or perhaps unwilling to cope with culturally enforced grunge ... see all copies from $3.28! new only from $8.34!
7	Singles 1963-1965 (2004) more music like this by The Rolling Stones There's a certain part of the collectors market that has a fondness for box sets that recreate the original singles and EPs British Invasion bands released during the '60s. These, to put it mildly, are not designed for practical listening -- very few listeners like to load up their multi-disc player with CDs running two tracks -- but that's kind ... see all copies from $47.77! new only from $47.77!
8	The Premonition Years: 1994-2002 (2007) more music like this by Patricia Barber The Premonition Years: 1994-2002 collects tracks the jazz pianist/singer/songwriter Patricia Barber recorded for the independent Premonition label. These are the cuts that helped solidify Barber's reputation as an enigmatic, cerebral, and creatively inspired artist with a knack for intimate and reflective cabaret-influenced performances that ... see all copies from $30.85! new only from $30.85!
9	Fast Rise and Fall of the South (2005) more music like this by The Kingsbury Manx After two years of work, a tour van wreck, and a change of label, North Carolina indie soft rockers Kingsbury Manx released their third full-length album, The Fast Rise and Fall of the South, and it seems that the long road to get there was well worth the trouble. The Fast Rise and Fall is, no doubt, the finest selection of songs the boys have put ... see all copies from $10.40! new only from $10.40!
10	Café Blue [Koch] (2004) more music like this by Patricia Barber Patricia Barber, who is both a fine keyboardist and an atmospheric singer, contributes roughly half of the material to her Premonition debut. Her dark voice and the generally esoteric program takes awhile to get used to (listeners will have to be patient), but after two or three listens, this thought-provoking and rather moody set becomes more ... see all copies from $15.65! new only from $15.65!
11 view cover	Mustard (1975) more music like this by Roy Wood Unlike Boulders, Mustard is designed as a full-fledged album instead of a collection of pop vignettes. Outside of Wood's love for Brian Wilson there's no concept, yet it flows smoothly and attractively, since each song sounds like an epic pop extravaganza in miniature. In a typically perverse turn, Wood opens the record with a scratchy parody of ... see all copies from $15.00!
12 view cover	Slow Ride & Other Hits (1997) more music like this by Foghat Slow Ride & Other Hits highlights several of Foghat's classic tracks released in the '70s, including "Fool for the City," "Drivin' Wheel," "I Just Want to Make Love to You," and "Slow Ride." Although this isn't a bad budget-priced disc, other sets are available with more songs for not much more money. Al Campbell, All Music Guide see all copies from $1.99! new only from $4.59!
13 view cover	The Feeding of the 5000 (1978) more music like this by Crass see all copies from $8.42! new only from $8.42!
14 view cover	Café Blue [Blue Note/Mobile Fidelity] (1994) more music like this by Patricia Barber Patricia Barber, who is both a fine keyboardist and an atmospheric singer, contributes roughly half of the material to her Premonition debut. Her dark voice and the generally esoteric program takes awhile to get used to (listeners will have to be patient), but after two or three listens, this thought-provoking and rather moody set becomes more ... see all copies from $19.97! new only from $19.97!
15 view cover	Singles Collection: The London Years (1989) more music like this by The Rolling Stones The three-disc box set Singles Collection: The London Years contains every single the Rolling Stones released during the '60s, including both the A- and B-sides. It is the first Stones compilation that tries to be comprehensive and logical -- for all their attributes, the two Hot Rocks sets and the two Big Hits collections didn't present the ... see all copies from $15.41! new only from $41.32!
16 view cover	Look Thru the Eyes of Roy Wood (2006) more music like this by Roy Wood God knows that there have been too many Roy Wood compilations released over the years, but such a complicated glut only seems fitting for an artist that would start new bands and record under different monikers at the drop of a hat. If he was that reckless, it only makes sense that his discography would be that messy, too, but Castle's 2007 double ... see all copies from $14.15! new only from $14.15!
17 view cover	The Best of Foghat [1992] (1992) more music like this by Foghat Rhino's second collection titled Best of Foghat is a very inexpensive disc, retailing for under 10 dollars and only containing eight songs. As cheap discs with no liner notes go, this collection is very good, basically because the sound is the same as Rhino's more extensive collection. Nevertheless, in no way does it offer a thorough retrospective ... see all copies from $1.99!
18 view cover	Now (2002) by The Rolling Stones see all copies from $35.99! new only from $35.99!
19 view cover	Don McLean (1972) more music like this by Don McLean Don McLean's followup to the overwhelmingly successful American Pie inevitably fell short of its predecessor, but it was a strong collection, containing the chart entry "If We Try" and "Dreidel," which should have been a hit, too. William Ruhlmann, All Music Guide see all copies from $2.99! new only from $12.00!
20 view cover	Real Life (Live) (1987) more music like this by Clarence "Gatemouth" Brown Live set cut in Fort Worth, TX, that presents an accurate depiction of the breadth and scope of a Gatemouth Brown concert. Switching between guitar and violin, Gate offers everything from a reprise of "Okie Dokie Stomp" to a tender "Please Send Me Someone to Love" from Percy Mayfield's songbook and personalized renditions of "St. Louis Blues" and ... see all copies from $14.40! new only from $14.40!
21 view cover	Delta Hop (2004) by Rose City Kings see all copies from $9.15! new only from $9.15!
22 view cover	Chicago Jazz Tour [1998] (1998) more music like this by Various Artists Chicago Jazz Tour gathers performances done for the Big Chicago label by both established and up-and-coming performers; most of the compositions are originals, and there are also tunes by Thelonious Monk, Wayne Shorter, and Duke Ellington. Among the featured artists are Kurt Elling, Von Freeman, Johnny Frigo, Patricia Barber, and Kahil El'Zabar. ... see all copies from $2.70! new only from $15.55!
23 view cover	The Definitive Rock Collection (2006) more music like this by Foghat When one listens to the absolutely savage tracks that appeared on Foghat's classic debut album -- produced at Rockfield Studios by Dave Edmunds -- one can hear the sound of the entire history of rock music up until that point in time. True, they are all covers -- Willie Dixon's "I Just Want to Make Love to You," Chuck Berry's "Maybellene," and ... see all copies from $17.24! new only from $17.24!
24 view cover	Ghetto Millionaire (1997) more music like this by Royal Flush Royal Flush's debut album, Ghetto Millionaire, is a pedestrian set of hardcore gangsta rap that occasionally catches fire. Lyrically, Royal Flush's rhymes have potential, yet their music is too conventional and predictable to be of much interest to anyone outside of gangsta fetishists. Leo Stanley, All Music Guide see all copies from $3.97! new only from $8.58!
25 view cover	Rhapsody in Black (2001) more music like this by Derek Sherinian see all copies from $5.39! new only from $13.37!
