This box set has all the best songs by The Who and some more obscure titles. It is a mix of studio and live recordings. My only negative comments are in regards to the second disc which focused on the album "The Who Sell Out". I didn't like the direction the band went on this effort and was not impressed with the songs on this disc. However, I was very pleased with the other discs. The set comes with a booklet containing a substantial amount of information about the band. I read some comments about this set on other sites that I totally disagree with because they seemed to assume the purchaser already had a large catalog of music by The Who. If you don't already have many Who albums, I highly recommend this box set as a way to capture their best music in one purchase.
I have enjoyed listening to this 4-disc boxed set. However, I don't think it's the best set for the casual fan of the Who as I was disappointed with many of the track selections. I think this set is best suited to the super-fan who already has all of the original releases since this set goes to great lengths to include a lot of previously unreleased tracks, most of which I did not enjoy. I prefer the box sets that include both the top hits along with some quality recordings that you may have missed. This didn't achieve this for me and I find myself skipping over about half of the tracks. So if you're a casual fan of the Who, you may be happier with a greatest hits compilation supplemented with a few of your favorite album releases.
It looked brand new I have been wanting this in my Who collection for a long time
