rating: 3 QuoteGood but could have used some live cuts for 2 cd setQuote
I can't comment on whether this set is properly representative or otherwise comprehensive as I have not heard the solo albums these were drawn from as I just know the "hits" from this set. Still, I am familiar with most of the WHO albums and I can say that this is quite a bit different from them, but at least approaching the same quality of music. Good writing and a great sound, a definite step above a typical side project album. I don't find myself skipping through the tracks as I do on some lesser collections. However; as this is a two CD set it would have been nice to hear some live material such as the "Deep End" recordings. May 26, 2008

The is a wonderful collection, just missing one great Townshend song -- Stardom in Action from "...Cowboys..." January 26, 2008

rating: 5 QuoteAmazing CollectionQuote
I didn't need to purchase this Two CD Collection, as I have all I of these tracks on the original releases by Pete, but...

It's just Great to see 34 Fantastic Pete Townshend Songs right here all together in One Place at a Low Price.

With: "Rough Boys","A Friend Is A Friend","Pure And Easy" and "Let My Love Open The Door"...All the Big and well known Hits are here, and now they are right besides Lesser-Known Gems as: "Heart To Hang Onto","Keep Me Turning", "I Won't Run Anymore" and "Don't Try To Make Me Real".

To say this is THE Collection of The work of Pete Townshend, would be putting it Mildly. It is the place to begin for a New Listener, and for all of us that have been on The Magic Bus since the Year Dot, THIS IS The Collection that puts it all together properly.

This is an Excellent Collection and a nice Bargain...FIVE STARS !!! December 16, 2007

It was great to hear Pete Townshend in a compilation playing stuff very different from The Who kind of music. December 9, 2007

Certainly a lot to read into these lyrics in light of events of the last two years. Great CD, though. "Secondhand Love" is a dreamscape. July 16, 2007
