Meaty Beaty Big and Bouncy

Meaty Beaty Big and Bouncy (1971) more music like this

by The Who

Meaty Beaty Big and Bouncy has the distinction of being the first in a long line of Who compilations. It also has the distinction of being the best. Part of the reason why it is so successful is that it has an actual purpose. Meaty was designed as a collection of the group's singles, many of which never appeared on albums. The Who recorded their ...

Pin Ups

Pin Ups (1973) more music like this

by David Bowie

Pin Ups fits into David Bowie's output roughly where Moondog Matinee (which, strangely enough, appeared the very same month) did into the Band's output, which is to say that it didn't seem to fit in at all. Just as a lot of fans of Levon Helm et al. couldn't figure where a bunch of rock & roll and R&B covers fit alongside their output of original ...

Who's Better, Who's Best

Who's Better, Who's Best (1988) more music like this

by The Who

Who's Better, Who's Best is a compilation of the Who's best-known songs, containing all of the familiar items -- "I Can't Explain," "I Can See for Miles," "Pinball Wizard," "My Generation," "Substitute" -- but presented without much care. The album is further plagued by the presence of some filler tracks that really don't deserve to be on any best ...

The BBC Sessions

The BBC Sessions (2000) more music like this

by The Who

A fine compilation of 1965-73 BBC performances, the majority of the tracks hailing from 1965-67, although some are drawn from 1970 and 1973. As one of the best live bands ever, the Who as expected come through pretty well in the live-in-the-studio environment, although the arrangements usually stick close to the records. Most of the songs were ...

Sound + Vision

Sound + Vision (1989) more music like this

by David Bowie

Sound + Vision is a triple-disc box set designed to introduce Rykodisc's extensive reissue program of David Bowie's RCA albums. As a result, it has a number of idiosyncrasies that prevent it from becoming a definitive box set. Conceptually, the set was intended to showcase Rykodisc's remastering expertise, as well as the rarities lying in the ...

Thirty Years of Maximum R&B

Thirty Years of Maximum R&B (1994) more music like this

by The Who

This four-CD collection does include all of the Who's big hits and the lion's share of their key album tracks. Previously unreleased rarities include some interesting selections (the '60s outtakes "Early Morning Cold Taxi" and "Melancholia"), but these bits and pieces, which include some live versions, commercials, Keith Moon sketches, and the ...

Live at the Royal Albert Hall

Live at the Royal Albert Hall (2003) more music like this

by The Who

The Who's Live at the Royal Albert Hall captures a charity concert for a cancer organization the reunited group performed in November of 2000. Given the band's spotty track record in their farewell tours and reunions of the '80s and '90s, it's easy for some longtime fans to be skeptical of the musical merits of the triple-disc hybrid SACD release ...

Finally, The Punk Rockers Are Taking Acid

Finally, The Punk Rockers Are Taking Acid (2002) more music like this

by The Flaming Lips

Finally, the Punk Rockers Are Taking Acid is the first, and largest, of two archival sets from Restless which collects nearly all the material released by the Flaming Lips before they left independent rock for one of the most unexpected major-label deals in history. Over the course of three discs, it tells the story of what Wayne Coyne calls "a ...

The Kids Are Alright

The Kids Are Alright (1979) more music like this

by The Who

Like the film itself, the soundtrack to the Who's Kids Are Alright documentary is frustrating even as it pleases, since it falls short of being definitive. If the film was supposed to explain the excitement and history of the Who, tracing their evolution from mod superstars to arena rock gods, it somehow failed by just not quite gelling together. ...

Pete Townshend Live: A Benefit for Maryville Academy

Pete Townshend Live: A Benefit for Maryville Academy (1999) more music like this

by Pete Townshend

Pete Townshend Live: A Benefit for Maryville Academy captures a charity concert Townshend gave at the Chicago House of Blues on August 16, 1998. It was the second in a series of annual concerts to raise money for the children's organization, and Townshend clearly relishes the event, if the quality of the performance is any indication. He pretty ...

Who Covers Who (1994) more music like this

by Various Artists

Who Covers Who features affectionate interpretations some of the Who's classic songs from artists like Hyperhead, the Revs, Mint 400, the Mess and Brilliant Corners. In particular, Alex Chilton's rendition of "Anyway, Anyhow, Anywhere" and Blur's dashed-off "Substitute" cover capture the rough-and-ready attitude of the Who's early days; though ...

The Ultimate Collection (2002) more music like this

by The Who

Following in the footsteps not only of Universal's many Ultimate Collection, but also the Beatles 1 -- a groundbreaking collection in the sense that it proved that a collection that contains all the hits will actually sell on CD (thereby proving the cynical ploy of leaving hits off a compilation in order to sell catalog is flawed) -- the Who's ...

Somewhere, Anywhere: The Unreleased Tracks (1998) more music like this

by Todd Rundgren

In the 90s, numerous record companies issued either tribute albums or rarities collections of their veteran artists, and Todd Rundgren was the subject of the latter format with the 1998 Japanese import Somewhere/Anywhere: The Unreleased Tracks. At 23 tracks in length, it compiles unheard vintage live material (from the '70s), a demo or two, plus ...
