The energy emitted from this collected group of musicians and their loyal fan base, who was virtually incomparable, is all chronicled here for your listening enjoyment. Songs that span the band's entire run are also included here. The only negative thing about this package is the liner notes. Failing to tell you where each track is culled from, or who is playing on them, leaves you guessing a bit too much. Take a clue from the extraordinary work on the Grateful Dead's new box set, where one is told not only the dates, but also a story behind each track.
History deserves to be chronicled with care and love.
And believe me, this collection is history.
