1	The Complete Recordings [Columbia #1] (1990) more music like this by Robert Johnson A double-disc box set containing everything Robert Johnson ever recorded, The Complete Recordings is essential listening, but it is also slightly problematic. The problems aren't in the music itself, of course, which is stunning and the fidelity of the recordings is the best it ever has been or ever will be. Instead, it's in the track sequencing. ... see all copies from $7.50! new only from $17.32!
2	Me and Mr. Johnson (2004) more music like this by Eric Clapton Ten years after his first all-blues album, From the Cradle, Eric Clapton released Me and Mr. Johnson, an album-length tribute to his hero, the legendary bluesman Robert Johnson. Not that this is the first time Clapton has paid tribute to Johnson. Throughout his career, Clapton has not only drawn on Johnson for inspiration, but he has covered his ... see all copies from $3.94! new only from $10.00!
3	King of the Delta Blues Singers [Bonus Track] (1966) more music like this by Robert Johnson Reading about the power inherent in Robert Johnson's music is one thing, but actually experiencing it is another matter entirely. The official 1998 edition of the original 1961 album was certainly worth the wait, remastered off the best quality original 78s available, of far superior quality to any of the source materials used on even the 1991 ... see all copies from $6.33! new only from $11.06!
4	Johnny Winter (1969) more music like this by Johnny Winter Winter's debut album for Columbia was also arguably his bluesiest and best. Straight out of Texas with a hot trio, Winter made blues-rock music for the angels, tearing up a cheap Fender guitar with total abandon on tracks like "I'm Yours and I'm Hers," "Leland Mississippi Blues," and perhaps the slow blues moment to die for on this set, B.B. King ... see all copies from $4.09! new only from $11.75!
5	At the Crossroads: The Blues of Robert Johnson (2003) more music like this by John Hammond, Jr. If Robert Johnson could look down from heaven or up from hell, he'd likely find it very interesting that John Hammond, Jr. had covered his songs. Here is a white guy, after all, who sounds like a black blues singer and chooses -- of his own free will -- to frequently return to the repertoire of an obscure black guitarist/singer from the 1930s. At ... see all copies from $11.99! new only from $14.22!
6	The Robert Johnson Songbook [2003] (2003) more music like this by Peter Green Splinter Group see all copies from $11.30! new only from $11.30!
7	Call Down the Thunder (1996) more music like this by Guy Davis From the infectious opening notes of "Georgia Jelly Roll" through the stomping sounds of the closing "New Shoes," Call Down the Thunder is honest, raw, from-the-gut blues music, imbued with the joy of a gospel meeting. Guy Davis is a master storyteller, penning ten of the 13 songs included here. His slide playing is exceptional and at times very ... see all copies from $14.55! new only from $16.21!
8	The Supernatural (2007) more music like this by Peter Green/Fleetwood Mac see all copies from $17.80! new only from $17.80!
9	Me & the Devil (2001) more music like this by Peter Green & Robert Johnson While it's no secret that guitar king Peter Green is obsessed with Robert Johnson, having done two previous recordings of his music, this box is in essence something else. There are three CDs included here, one of which is Hot Foot Powder, the first album by the Peter Green Splinter Group, which included guest performances from the likes of Otis ... see all copies from $20.63! new only from $20.63!
10	The Robert Johnson Songbook [1998] (1998) more music like this by Peter Green Splinter Group The Robert Johnson Songbook is Peter Green's first recording made entirely of covers of the music written by the King of the Delta Blues. Unfortunately, though pleasant, The Robert Johnson Songbook lacks the warmth and soulfulness of its successor -- Hot Foot Powder. The Robert Johnson Songbook features Green's Splinter Group, plus a guest ... see all copies from $7.99!
11	Big City Blues (1964) more music like this by John Hammond see all copies from $8.00! new only from $12.70!
12	Perfect Day (1998) more music like this by Christian Dozzler see all copies from $16.46! new only from $16.46!

14 view cover	The British Blues Collection (2007) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $8.51! new only from $8.51!
15 view cover	Hear That Wind Howl (1999) more music like this by Geoff Bartley Despite the song list presented here, Bartley is no mere Robert Johnson wannabe. Instead of coarsening his voice and trying to sound like an old Delta bluesman, he presents these songs in a straightforward manner that comes from an intimate knowledge of the source materials, but as transmuted through his own experience. This is coffeehouse music ... see all copies from $2.22! new only from $15.32!
16 view cover	Baby, Don't You Tear My Clothes (2004) more music like this by James Cotton James Cotton's third solo release on Telarc, Baby, Don't You Tear My Clothes picks up where 35th Anniversary Jam of the James Cotton Blues Band left off. The strongest of these 13 tracks find Cotton and associates digging back to the '30s for inspiration: Doc & Merle Watson assist on Leroy Carr's "How Long Blues," "Stealin' Stealin'" with Dave ... see all copies from $8.78! new only from $8.78!
17 view cover	Hellhound on My Trail: Songs of Robert Johnson (2001) more music like this by Various Artists Not the first compilation of bluesmen (and one woman) interpreting the limited but radically influential work of Robert Johnson, and almost certainly not the last, this 2001 entry is one of the more substantial efforts in the lineage. Instead of refashioning these classics in unique arrangements, the compilers have stripped the artists and songs ... see all copies from $3.90! new only from $10.29!

19 view cover	The Best of Robert Johnson: Traveling Riverside Blues (2004) more music like this by Robert Johnson see all copies from $4.70! new only from $4.70!
20 view cover	A Rock N' Roll Collection (1994) more music like this by Johnny Winter A two-CD survey of Winter's recordings for Columbia between 1969 and 1979, the era of his greatest commercial success. This collects many of his most popular tracks, though it doesn't do much to argue a case for artistic diversity. Includes two otherwise unavailable songs: an alternate take of "30 Days," and a previously unreleased 1973 cover of ... see all copies from $78.85! new only from $78.85!

23 view cover	Johnny Winter [Bonus Tracks] (2008) more music like this by Johnny Winter Winter's debut album for Columbia was also arguably his bluesiest and best. Straight out of Texas with a hot trio, Winter made blues-rock music for the angels, tearing up a cheap Fender guitar with total abandon on tracks like "I'm Yours and I'm Hers," "Leland Mississippi Blues," and perhaps the slow blues moment to die for on this set, B.B. King ... see all copies from $20.00! new only from $22.87!
