1	Friend of Mine (1993) more music like this by Bill Morrissey & Greg Brown add to wishlist Bill Morrissey and Greg Brown's paths had been crossing on the folk circuit when, in 1993, they formed an acoustic duet in a Massachusetts studio for Friend of Mine. Brown clearly has more of a range than Morrissey, but when it comes to singing with plenty of warmth, humanity and feeling, neither are lacking. And the singers/guitarists clearly ... see all copies from £5.22! new only from £9.44!
2	Hills of Home: 25 Years of Folk Music on Rounder Records (1995) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist Celebrating the 25th anniversary of Rounder Records, this bargain-priced double CD emphasizes folk music but encompasses a wide range of styles, including close-harmony duet (Whitstein Brothers), flatpicking (Norman Blake), Cajun (Le Trio Cadien), Piedmont blues (Etta Baker), gospel (E.C. & Orna Ball), old-time country (Mike Seeger), cowboy music ... see all copies from £8.96! new only from £8.96!
3	Legacy: A Collection of New Folk Artists (1989) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist Legacy - A Collection of New Folk Music. Although only a few of them managed to break through to national attention, a generation of important folk talents appeared during the 80s, playing clubs and festivals and recording for The Fast Folk Musical Magazine and self-financed records sold at gigs. In 1989, Windham Hill noticed and copied the Fast ... see all copies from £3.40! new only from £51.19!
4	Inside (1992) more music like this by Bill Morrissey add to wishlist Like jazzman Chet Baker (whom he sounds nothing like), folk-pop artist Bill Morrissey is a perfect example of a singer who manages to be quite expressive and charismatic despite the fact that he doesn't have much of a voice or much of a range. Morrissey's thin, fragile, cracking vocals can take some getting used to, but for those who have acquired ... see all copies from £3.11!
5	Standing Eight (1989) more music like this by Bill Morrissey add to wishlist His third release may just be his best yet. If there's anything about Morrissey that becomes wearing, it may be his croak of a voice which might be more than many can take. Still, he has a wryness and toughness of character that makes his tales of hard-won love seem so fresh and devoid of cliche and excess melodrama. Standing Eight may also be ... see all copies from £8.07! new only from £10.47!
6	Rounder Records 25th Anniversary (1995) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist see all copies from £23.77! new only from £23.77!
7	The Essential Collection (2004) more music like this by Bill Morrissey add to wishlist Rounder's celebration of Bill Morrissey's 20th anniversary as a recording artist, dubbed The Essential Collection, is a hearty 20-track collection culling at least one track from each record he's released over the years, except for the duet album with Greg Brown, Friend of Mine. The label did a fine job assembling the tracks with a comfortable ... see all copies from £5.29! new only from £12.10!
8	Silverwolf Homeless Project [1995] (1995) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist Billed as a "Homeless-specific song-cycle," The Silverwolf Homeless Project compiles 16 cuts from artists as diverse as Cheryl Wheeler, John Gorka, Tom Paxton, and Ani DiFranco, some recorded for this project, others drawn from previously released sources. The common tone is one of heartfelt sadness (even in Greg Brown's "Just a Bum," which has a ... see all copies from £3.11! new only from £7.79!
9	All-Ears Review, Vol. 3: Singing out - Songwriters for the 90's (1987) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist see all copies from £3.11! new only from £3.43!
10	Something I Saw or Thought I Saw (2001) more music like this by Bill Morrissey add to wishlist Something I Saw or Thought I Saw is a title that suggests the sometimes uncertain perspective of the characters in Bill Morrissey's songs. His usual reference points are in place -- he fills his songs with weather imagery, most of it winter-related, he sets many of his stories on the road, and his characters are always well-lubricated. In "Harry's ... see all copies from £4.86!
11	Ben & Jerry's Newport Folk Festival, Vol. 2 (1990) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist Featuring Bill Morrissey doing "Grizzly Bear," and Doc Watson's "St. James Infirmary," and Richard Thompson's "Two Left Feet" and "Stands Out." Cheryl Wheeler's "I Know This Town" is also great. ~ Chip Renner, All Music Guide see all copies from £4.36! new only from £5.47!
12	Folk Live from Mountain Stage (1997) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist Mountain Stage: Folk Live contains highlights from the weekly radio show, this time concentrating on performers who fall into a loose definition of folk. That means there are not only folk singer-songwriters like Iris DeMent, but country-rockers like Steve Earle and country groups like the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band. The eclecticism works in the ... see all copies from £21.34! new only from £21.34!
13	Anna Kournikova (2003) more music like this by Binge add to wishlist see all copies from £5.56!
14	Songs of Mississippi John Hurt (1999) more music like this by Bill Morrissey add to wishlist As Morrissey's rep is built solidly on the fine storytelling abilities so well-crafted in his original songs, it may come as a surprise to hear him in this setting, turning in equally compelling takes on Mississippi John Hurt material. Utilizing various settings and lineups to recast the material in terms other than the typical solo-acoustic ... see all copies from £3.11! new only from £13.06!
15	Come Running (2007) more music like this by Bill Morrissey add to wishlist see all copies from £14.32!

17	Night Train (1994) more music like this by Bill Morrissey add to wishlist His style has really matured and this album contains another solid thoughtful set of story songs. The sound on this album is more stripped down, as basic as a Lou Reed record and just as effective. ~ Richard Meyer, All Music Guide see all copies from £6.54! new only from £10.96!
18	Bill Morrissey (1984) more music like this by Bill Morrissey add to wishlist see all copies from £5.92! new only from £14.33!

20	You'll Never Get to Heaven (1996) more music like this by Bill Morrissey add to wishlist see all copies from £9.47! new only from £12.45!
21	North (1986) more music like this by Bill Morrissey add to wishlist Morrissey's New England country accent and self-deprecating humor make it easy to miss the bite in many of his songs, which have a Hemingwayesque understatement both in their sly, sidelong observations and their matter-of-fact presentation. In fact, Morrissey is a taste well worth acquiring for anyone seeking perceptive songwriting and the ... see all copies from £6.24!
22	Christine Lavin Presents: On a Winter's Night (1994) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist see all copies from £5.58!
