1	Tommy (1969) more music like this by The Who The full-blown rock opera about a deaf, dumb, and blind boy that launched the band to international superstardom, written almost entirely by Pete Townshend. Hailed as a breakthrough upon its release, its critical standing has diminished somewhat in the ensuing decades because of the occasional pretensions of the concept and because of the ... see all copies from $6.24! new only from $13.03!
2	Greatest Hits, Vol. 2 [Polygram] (1986) more music like this by Elton John Greatest Hits, Vol. 2 rounds up the handful of singles that weren't included on Elton John's first Greatest Hits collection ("Levon," "Tiny Dancer") and adds the highlights from Caribou, Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy, and Rock of the Westies ("The Bitch Is Back," "Someone Saved My Life Tonight," "Island Girl," "Grow Some Funk of Your ... see all copies from $3.99! new only from $3.99!
3	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 $13.70!
4	Tommy [Deluxe Edition] (2003) more music like this by The Who The two-CD deluxe edition of the Who's masterpiece -- a hybrid playable on both SACD and standard CD players -- is bigger, but not necessarily better. Audiophiles with the appropriate equipment will welcome the chance to hear it as remastered and remixed by Pete Townshend himself, in both stereo and (with the exception of five Townshend solo demos ... see all copies from $16.80! new only from $16.80!
5	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 $5.28! new only from $5.28!
6	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!
7	Another Scoop (1987) more music like this by Pete Townshend Like its predecessor, Another Scoop is a collection of 27 demos Pete Townshend recorded for the Who, and if anything, it surpasses the first volume in terms of quality. Another Scoop has a greater percentage of familiar Who classics -- including "You Better You Bet," "Pinball Wizard," "Happy Jack," "Substitute," "Long Live Rock," "Pictures of Lily ... see all copies from $11.00! new only from $19.81!
8	Hooligans (1982) more music like this by The Who Hooliganstakes a slightly different angle than previous compilations, concentrating on the group's '70s album rock heyday. Only three songs ("I Can't Explain," "I Can See for Miles, " "Pinball Wizard") from the '60s are included, with much of the album being devoted to radio hits and album tracks, with three of non-LP singles, "The Relay, " "Let's ... see all copies from $4.99!
9	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 $3.00! new only from $3.00!
10	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 $51.42!
11	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!
12	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 $19.19!
13	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!
14	To Be Continued... (1990) more music like this by Elton John This four-CD set has had a somewhat confused history, mostly owing to licensing changes and the mergers and acquisitions of various record labels. Prepared in the late '80s by MCA Records, which had the rights to Elton John's U.S. catalog, To Be Continued... marked a major improvement over the sound of his extant CDs of the period. But MCA's ... see all copies from $29.98!
15 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 $6.49!
16 view cover	The Very Best of Elton John [Polygram Germany] (1990) more music like this by Elton John see all copies from $19.19! new only from $19.19!
17 view cover	Gold (2006) more music like this by Roger Daltrey In 2004, Sanctuary Records released a double-CD Roger Daltrey compilation called Moonlighting: The Anthology. Two years later, Hip-O Records' 2006 double-CD Daltrey compilation Gold bears many similarities to that collection. In fact, the first 18-track disc is identical. The second one has several differences, however. Gold includes "The Pride ... see all copies from $13.06! new only from $13.06!
18 view cover	Join Together (1990) more music like this by The Who see all copies from $8.00!
19 view cover	The Best of Rod Stewart [Mercury] (1976) more music like this by Rod Stewart Originally released in the '70s, Mercury's The Best of Rod Stewart was expanded to a generous 18 tracks in 1998. Many of those added tracks were not proper hits -- they were album track favorites that may not have been big on the charts, but were of the consistently high quality that Rod was turning out in the early '70s. That means that this is a ... see all copies from $6.77! new only from $13.34!
20 view cover	Old Friends (1977) more music like this by Mary McCaslin McCaslin wrote only one of the ten songs (the title track) on her fourth album. The remainder of the program stressed her abilities as one of folk music's most eclectic interpretive artists, as in addition to folk-country tunes, there were two Lennon-McCartney compositions ("Things We Said Today" and "Blackbird," both among her best-known tracks); ... see all copies from $10.44! new only from $15.29!
21 view cover	Celebration: The Music of the Who (1994) more music like this by Roger Daltrey A Celebration: The Music Of Pete Townshend And The Who is the aural record of two concerts Roger Daltrey staged at Carnegie Hall in 1994 to pay tribute to his favorite composer. Of course, Daltrey had spent much of his life singing Townshend's songs, and he had recorded most of these more than once before. Backed by an orchestra and accompanied by ... see all copies from $1.99!
22 view cover	Pete Townshend's Deep End Live! (1986) more music like this by Pete Townshend Pete Townshend and the Deep End Band played live for two benefit outings -- November 1 and 2, 1985 at the Brixton Academy -- to help support Townshend's own "Double O' Charities. The performances are excerpted here and were used in a made-for-home-video, also called Pete Townshend's Deep End Live!. Initially, a promotional 12" EP of the show was ... see all copies from $4.00! new only from $9.57!

25 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!
