1	The Time Has Come (1967) more music like this by The Chambers Brothers This, the Chambers Brothers' coming-of-age record, was a well-timed and even better executed exercise in modern record-making. The brothers had recorded several excellent gospel-folk sides on a few labels (including CBS) in the mid-'60s. They were darlings of the folk set, and even sang backup on a few unreleased Bob Dylan sessions in 1965. By ... see all copies from $4.00! new only from $5.25!
2	More Reggae for Kids (1997) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $8.81! new only from $8.81!
3	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!
4	Very Special Season (1998) more music like this by Diana Ross Diana Ross' 1994 Christmas album, A Very Special Season, easily ranks among the diva's best of the '90s. Instead of opting for hip arrangements aimed at pleasing a younger, jaded audience, all the songs on this set are classically arranged with lush orchestrations, resulting in a truly timeless holiday album, not unlike what one would have ... see all copies from $4.47! new only from $4.47!
5	Love Songs (1989) more music like this by Connie Francis see all copies from $5.72! new only from $5.72!
6	Groovy 60's (2001) more music like this by Various Artists Medalist's double-disc, 26-track collection Groovy 60's has many familiar hits, but instead of putting together '60s favorites with the intention of capturing a hippie vibe, the idea behind this compilation is to conjure something frothy, swinging, and fun. So, there is a lot of sunshine pop, lots of swinging London, some San Franciscan psych-pop, ... see all copies from $1.99!
7	Reach Out (1967) more music like this by Burt Bacharach Burt Bacharach's second album will either delight or sorely disappoint modern listeners, depending upon how aware they are of who he really is. It's easy to forget, amidst his '90s revival, that Bacharach was never fundamentally a "rock" songwriter. Reach Out was reissued in 1995, just as Bacharach's star was rising among more mature rock ... see all copies from $1.99!
8	Among Our Souvenirs (1994) more music like this by The Lennon Sisters Among Our Souvenirs is an excellent two-disc anthology of Lawrence Welk Show regulars the Lennon Sisters, with 44 songs recorded between 1958 and 1968. The set begins with both sides of their first single, "Mickey Mouse Mambo" and "Hi! To You," and follows their progression from children singing youth-oriented novelties to adults reinterpreting ... see all copies from $70.74! new only from $70.74!
9	What the World Needs Now: The Music of Burt Bacharach (1997) more music like this by McCoy Tyner see all copies from $19.59!
10	Reflections (1968) more music like this by Diana Ross & The Supremes Their last album with Holland-Doizer-Holland at the creative helm, it was apparent that both parties were battling creative fatigue and were exhibiting the appropriate scars at the time. But aside from the then-innovative title song and the jazzy "In and Out of Love," there's nothing much to get excited about. (Note: the CD version contains two ... see all copies from $6.24!
11	Colour Collection (2007) more music like this by Burt Bacharach see all copies from $5.26! new only from $5.26!
12 view cover	Reggae for Kids: Instrumentals (2002) more music like this by Various Artists Music for kids is always problematic. You can go the safe Raffi route, or be more adventurous -- something children often respond to. The Reggae for Kids series has adopted something of a middle ground, and this instrumental disc might be the ideal balance. Yes, there are some reggae classics in here, internationally known pieces like "One Love" ... see all copies from $6.99! new only from $31.79!

14 view cover	Big Band and Ballads/Buddy's in a Brand New Bag/Away We Go (2004) more music like this by Buddy Greco see all copies from $13.37! new only from $13.37!
15 view cover	The Ultimate Jackie DeShannon (2005) more music like this by Jackie DeShannon A gifted songwriter and an amazingly versatile and soulful singer, Jackie DeShannon has been woefully under-appreciated by the general listening public, and her body of work -- both as a singer and as a writer -- is long overdue for a critical reappraisal. This generous collection has some wonderful sides, including DeShannon's early version of ... see all copies from $8.16! new only from $8.16!
16 view cover	The Very Best of Jackie DeShannon [Collectables] (1996) more music like this by Jackie DeShannon Jackie DeShannon was one of the rare people (especially for the '60s) who could not only sing and score hits, but write them too -- and for a woman that was almost unheard of. Both "Put a Little Love in Your Heart" and "When You Walk in the Room" scored not only for her but other artists, while she herself had a big hit with "Needles and Pins" by ... see all copies from $9.20! new only from $9.20!

18 view cover	Motown Salutes Bacharach (2002) more music like this by Various Artists It makes sense that this compilation inevitably had to happen. There are just so many renditions of legendary songwriter/arranger/composer/overlord Burt Bacharach's songs within the Motown catalog that someone at Universal (Motown's parent company) finally had the good sense to amass them for another volume in their long-running reissue series. It ... see all copies from $9.27! new only from $9.27!
19 view cover	Only Love 1965-1969 (1997) more music like this by Various Artists Only Love 1965-1969 is much like the other volumes in the series, in that it covers pop/rock love songs ranging from ballads to bouncy midtempo tunes, most with upbeat or wistful sentiments. Nearly all of the songs were at least moderate hits, so most of them will be familiar to anyone with a passing knowledge of oldies-radio playlists. Overall, ... see all copies from $19.98!

21 view cover	Church: Songs of Soul and Inspiration (2003) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $10.00! new only from $10.00!
22 view cover	On a Clear Day (1966) more music like this by Shirley Scott Most of organist Shirley Scott's records in the 1960s featured her husband, tenor saxophonist Stanley Turrentine, so this trio effort with bassist Ron Carter and drummer Jimmy Cobb was a change of pace. As usual, Scott features an off-the-wall tune ("What The World Needs Now Is Love") in her repertoire, along with standards (including "On A Clear ... see all copies from $20.00!
