Free Music Notes for The Who: The Ultimate Collection
Free Music Review: The best collection for The Who.
Hit: 5 Stars
Alright, what we have here is a 2-disc set containing The Who's picks for their best songs. Since I own all of their studio albums, their live albums, and some rare other items, I think I can say that they are one of my favorite bands. This collection pretty much captures all of their essential songs. Everything is here, from "Behind Blue Eyes" to "My Generation" to "5:15".... the list really goes on. This is all a casual fan needs... and if you're a collector, I guess this is still worth adding.
Also, I know that some reviewers are really upset with that guy "ZEPPELINISGOD". Well, if you read his reviews closely, it's easy to see that he's just kidding around, and he really hates Led Zeppelin with a passion and he thinks he's impersonating how all of Led Zeppelin's fans are. Well, don't take him seriously, his real Amazon name should be "ZEPPELINISCRAP" or something like that. Whatever.

This is an essential for all fans of the Who and all fans of classic rock (i.e. fans of music that rocks and is way better than the stuff that is played on the radio today). I bought this cd a week ago and I have not stopped listening to it. The Who were one of the greatest bands of all time, and this cd is an awesome, affordable and concise, collection. The disc starts with the Who's first great hit, "I Can't Explain" and ends with "Emminence Front" from their last album. There is not a song on either one of the two cds that is not worth listening to. The only thing that could have made this cd even better is if "We ain't gonna take it" (from Tommy) and "Going Mobile (From Who's Next) had been included in the compilation. Overall, this is the best and most complete Who collection on the market; go out and buy it; you won't be sorry.Free Music Review: The BEST Who collection!!!

Look no further. If you want a greatest hits collection by the WHo, this is the one to own. Not only has it been richly remastered, but the songs are numbered in chronologically order, so you get a sense of the history and the development of the band. IMHO, their peak years were 1969-1971, and this era is well represented by "Pinball Wizard," "Behind Blue Eyes," "Won't Get Fooled Again," "Baba O'Reilly," and "Bargain."
The collection concludes with "Eminence Front," and while I love this song, it makes me miss Keith Moon on drums, not that the replacement drummer isn't solid (he is), but he doesn't play with the liveliness and spontaneity that Keith had.
There is no reason to spend your money on single disc compilations that will inevitably be missing some of the band's big songs. Get this two disc set now!
Free Music Review: funny

i think some people are taking that "pissed off" reveiew a bit too seriously, i thought it was so stupid i almost fell out of my chair in laughter lol...this guy is a either extreamly dumb, or extreamly funny. Im leaning on the dumb side, which makes it even more hilarious. well, i love the album, good compilation, and variety. i recomend it to someone who just got into the who though, people who know their music a bit more should get the individual albums. some are worth it and some are not, but overall, their all good, cause they had a great consistent carrer of writing music. too bad the singer had to get into that stupid scandel with the ileagle pictures, sort of ruined some of the lyrics for me..like "the kids are alright", it might not be put in a sexual context, but could be after listning to the news. well... cheerioFree Music Review: SIGH.....

I know I am probably going to catch hell from Pissed Off Critic and Cranky Reviewer for this...but here goes. The right to free speech in the Untied States allows any person to spout any opinion they wish, no matter how ridicules, short sighted or (gasp) stupid. That being said, to those of us who know and appreciate the value of good music like the Who, should take such comments by these gentlemen for what they are. For Pissed Off Critic to personally attack a person because someone does not agree with his reviews, speaks volumes. Maybe Pissed Off Critic should take his own advice and DEAL WITH IT!!!FOR THE LAST TIME...THIS IS NOT A DEBUT ALBUM BY THE WHO. DEBUT IS DEFINED AS A "FIRST APPEARANCE". THIS ALBUM IS A COLLECTION OF SONGS WHICH CHRONICLE THE WHO'S CAREER. . THEREFORE. BY DEFINITION, THIS ALBUM CANNOT BE A DEBUT.
