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 $11.27!
2	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!
3	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 $37.53!
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 $8.66! 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 $27.16! new only from $27.16!
6	Who's Greatest Hits (1983) more music like this by The Who Following their "farewell tour," MCA released yet another Who collection, the first one ever titled Greatest Hits. The compilers don't take the title literally. Sure, many of the group's biggest hits ("Substitute," "My Generation," "Magic Bus," "Pinball Wizard," "Won't Get Fooled Again," "Love, Reign O'er Me," "Squeeze Box," "Who Are You") are ... see all copies from $5.99!
7	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 ... see all copies from $3.99! new only from $13.34!
8	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 $9.00!
9	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 $51.80!
10	British Invasion: 1963-1967 (2004) more music like this by Various Artists There have been countless compilations covering the British Invasion, from budget-line single-disc rush jobs to exhaustive multi-volume series to box sets like Hip-O's 2004 three-disc compilation, The British Invasion: 1963-1967. While this isn't the best of the British Invasion sets released over the years -- that would be Rhino's The British ... see all copies from $15.98! new only from $34.83!
11 view cover	In the Meantime, In Between Time (1991) more music like this by The Party see all copies from $12.93!
12 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 $12.35! new only from $17.76!
13 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!
14 view cover	The Who Sings My Generation (1965) more music like this by The Who An explosive debut, and the hardest mod pop recorded by anyone. At the time of its release, it also had the most ferociously powerful guitars and drums yet captured on a rock record. Pete Townshend's exhilarating chord crunches and guitar distortions threaten to leap off the grooves on "My Generation" and "Out in the Street"; Keith Moon attacks ... see all copies from $6.99! new only from $8.66!
15 view cover	Eurotrip (2004) more music like this by Original Soundtrack The soundtrack to Eurotrip, a comedy about American teens running amok in Europe, features American punk-pop tunes running amok among excerpts from the film, as well as a few European pop and rock tunes. Most of the punk-pop, such as Wakefield's cover of "Wild One" and Cauterize's "Shooting Stars," is bratty and energetic, but almost completely ... see all copies from $9.57! new only from $12.95!
16 view cover	Gorky Park (1989) more music like this by Gorky Park Despite being quite similar to most of the hair metal releases of the late '80s, Gorky Park's debut album is a solid freshman outing. The lead track "Bang" with its mix of Russian and English lyrics gave the band its first hit. The album also contains a collaboration with Bon Jovi, "Peace I Our Time," a ballad about the end of the cold war. The ... see all copies from $2.00!
17 view cover	Horses [30th Anniversary Legacy Edition] (2005) more music like this by Patti Smith Patti Smith's catalog has already been remastered. Horses here comes in its originally remastered incarnation with the same bonus track: a cover of the Who's "My Generation." This new, 30th Anniversary Legacy Edition, includes a bonus disc which is a live version of the album -- and the bonus track, recorded in on June 25 in London, England. While ... see all copies from $22.24! new only from $22.24!
18 view cover	Desolation Boulevard [Bonus Tracks] (2005) more music like this by Sweet Sweet hit the peak of their powers on Desolation Boulevard, a wonderfully lightweight collection of fizzy melodies and big, dumb hooks. Essentially, the album consists of three dynamic singles buoyed by a bunch of filler, but those singles -- "Ballroom Blitz," "The 6-Teens," and "Fox on the Run" -- are addictive slices of bubblegum glam rock. And ... see all copies from $15.28! new only from $15.28!
19 view cover	My Generation [Deluxe Edition] (2002) more music like this by The Who As many Who fans know, disputes between the Who and producer Shel Talmy held back the release of a CD version of My Generation taken from the best available original sources for quite some time. Eventually the dispute was resolved, and 2002 saw the release of the deluxe edition of this classic album, expanded into a two-CD work with the addition ... see all copies from $27.19! new only from $27.19!
20 view cover	Psychotic Reaction: The Very Best of Count Five (1999) more music like this by Count Five Re-release of the earlier Count Five compilation from Performance, with new packaging and notes. There's a considerable range of material here, all of it pretty punk oriented, though very little as rewarding as the title track, a number five hit nationally that managed to incorporate the best elements of the Yardbirds' and Bo Diddley's music. The ... see all copies from $11.66! new only from $11.66!
21 view cover	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 $7.75! new only from $12.94!
22 view cover	Live Phish, Vol. 14 (2002) more music like this by Phish For Phish's second Halloween "musical costume," the band (at the behest of keyboardist Page McConnell) chose to perform a cover of the Who's 1973 Quadrophenia rock opera. As usual, Phish sandwiched the performance in between two sets of original music. For the album cover, the bandmembers bolstered themselves with a new version of the Giant ... see all copies from $28.33! new only from $28.33!
23 view cover	A Cappella Doo Wop (2000) more music like this by The Mighty Echoes see all copies from $15.33! new only from $15.33!
24 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 $14.73! new only from $16.46!
25 view cover	Who's Serious: The Symphonic Music of the Who (1998) more music like this by London Philharmonic Orchestra & Peter Scholes Following similar volumes of repertory by Yes and The Rolling Stones, Who's Serious: Symphonic Music of the Who presents The London Philharmonic Orchestra running through several of The Who's best-known numbers, including "I Can See For Miles," "My Generation," "Baba O'Riley," and "Pinball Wizard." The release is augmented by a version of ... see all copies from $5.95!
