1	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 ... see all copies from $6.24! new only from $10.16!
2	Live at Leeds (1970) more music like this by The Who Rushed out in 1970 as a way to bide time as the Who toiled away on their follow-up to Tommy, Live at Leeds wasn't intended to be the definitive Who live album, and many collectors maintain that the band had better shows available on bootlegs. But those shows weren't easily available whereas Live at Leeds was, and even if this show may not have ... see all copies from $4.99! new only from $31.00!
3	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 ... see all copies from $10.00! new only from $52.64!
4	Live at Leeds [Bonus Tracks] (1995) more music like this by The Who Rushed out in 1970 as a way to bide time as the Who toiled away on their sequel to Tommy, Live at Leeds wasn't intended to be the definitive Who live album and many collectors maintain that the band had better shows only available on bootlegs. But those shows weren't easily available whereas Live at Leeds was, and even if this show may not have ... see all copies from $4.78! new only from $8.66!
5	Live at Leeds [Deluxe Edition] (2001) more music like this by The Who This two-disc set should be the final word regarding the Who's February 14, 1970, performance at Leeds University. The main impetus for consumers -- who may have repurchased this title in its various formats -- is having the entire Tommy rock opera intact. While impressive, that performance merely scratches the surface of the multifaceted sonic ... see all copies from $27.26! new only from $27.26!
6	Then and Now: 1964-2004 (2004) more music like this by The Who When Then and Now: Maximum Who was released in March 2004, there were no less than four Who hits compilations on the market (including the classic singles collection Meaty Beaty Big and Bouncy, which was available as an import), which raises the question: why another hits compilation, especially one that shares its title with Sanctuary's midline ... see all copies from $4.97! new only from $8.37!
7	Magic Bus (1968) more music like this by The Who A rip-off of sorts even upon its original release, with a few senseless repeats of tracks from Quick One and Who Sell Out, as well as a sleeve that erroneously implied a live recording. This mishmash of singles, B-sides, and stray tracks from past British releases did have some fine moments, particularly the singles "Call Me Lightning" and the Bo ... see all copies from $6.00! new only from $12.33!
8	Jerry Maguire (1996) more music like this by Original Soundtrack A soundtrack with a definite classic rock leaning. The Who, Neil Young, Elvis, Paul McCartney, Bob Dylan, and Bruce Springsteen all have contributions represented here. The album starts out with a Who piece that makes good use of the Bo Diddley beat. An instrumental piece from His Name Is Alive follows. The Who make another appearance with the ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $2.99!
9	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 ... see all copies from $4.00!
10	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. ... see all copies from $2.75! new only from $12.94!
11 view cover	Scoop (1983) more music like this by Pete Townshend Pete Townshend's demos had grown legendary among Who collectors well before the official release of the double-album Scoop in 1983. On each demo, Townshend worked out full arrangements, which the Who would often follow exactly. He also recorded a wealth of songs and instrumental pieces that never made it to record. Over the course of two albums, ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $10.00!
12 view cover	20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of The Who (1999) more music like this by The Who Like any record company worth their salt, MCA knows a good gimmick when they see it, and when the millennium came around -- well, the 20th Century Masters -- The Millennium Collection wasn't too far behind. Supposedly, the millennium is a momentous occasion, but it's hard to feel that way when it's used as another excuse to turn out a budget-line ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
13 view cover	Who's Last (1984) more music like this by The Who A double-disc document of The Who's 1982 farewell tour, Who's Last is a tepid and utterly forgettable album. Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide see all copies from $10.00! new only from $29.99!
14 view cover	National Lampoon's Senior Trip (1995) more music like this by Original Soundtrack Capricorn Records gets into the soundtrack business -- well, the song score business, anyway -- with this 13 song mix of rock and alternative cuts. Steve Bartek's score should have been aired in one way or another, but this compilation isn't a bad one, with very few dull tracks showing up. On display are cuts from 311, the Muffs, Our Lady Peace, ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $14.90!
15 view cover	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 ... see all copies from $11.05! new only from $11.05!
16 view cover	Live at the Isle of Wight Festival 1970 (1996) more music like this by The Who This double CD is pretty similar in sound and content to the expanded Live at Leeds album, except there's much more from Tommy, and a few semi-obscure numbers like "I Don't Even Know Myself," "Water," and "Naked Eye." Hardcore Who fanatics seem to prefer Live at Leeds, which was recorded only a few months before this material. That viewpoint is ... see all copies from $17.76! new only from $17.76!
17 view cover	Forces of Nature (1999) more music like this by Original Soundtrack The unifying themes for "Executive Album Producer" Robbie Robertson on the song score he assembled for the screwball comedy Forces Of Nature are percussion and sex. Whether he's licensing new covers of old hits (U2 doing "Everlasting Love," Chris Tart with "Love The One You're With," Swervedriver' s "Magic Bus") or picking newer tunes, Robertson ... see all copies from $3.50! new only from $8.99!
18 view cover	My Generation: The Very Best of the Who (1996) more music like this by The Who The Who have issued more greatest-hits collections than any other major artist, releasing a vast array of compilations while they were together and in the years following their breakup. Released in 1996, My Generation: The Very Best of the Who was intended to be the definitive single-disc collection, replacing all the others that preceded it. ... see all copies from $2.99!
19 view cover	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 ... see all copies from $5.07! new only from $5.07!
20 view cover	From the Earth to the Moon [Television Soundtrack] (1998) more music like this by Original TV Soundtrack The soundtrack to HBO's miniseries From the Earth to the Moon is basically a '60s and '70s oldies collection with the Michael Kamen theme tacked on to remind you this is a soundtrack, not a various-artists collection. Although there's no rhyme or reason for these selections other than their presence in the film, the album is actually fairly ... see all copies from $17.99!
21 view cover	Scooped (2002) more music like this by Pete Townshend There's no faulting the music on the 2002 collection Scooped -- after all, it contains 35 highlights from Pete Townshend's Scoops, his superlative series of demos and home recordings. And it's not just that it contains hits and well-known songs -- it stays true to the intent of the series by offering instrumental snippets, unknown songs, ... see all copies from $3.98!
22 view cover	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 ... see all copies from $12.00! new only from $12.00!
23 view cover	Magic Bus/Live in Chicago (2004) more music like this by Pete Townshend see all copies from $5.06!
24	The Story of the Who (1976) more music like this by The Who The British branch of Polydor released the double-album compilation The Story of the Who in 1976. It was the most exhaustive collection yet assembled, running from the group's early singles through Who By Numbers. Exhaustive doesn't necessarily mean comprehensive -- for some reason, Quadrophenia is completely overlooked, and a full side of Tommy ... see all copies from $13.43!
25	Today's Gold more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $12.00!
