Editorial Reviews:

It seems odd that the Band emerged in 1968, defying the counterculture's extravagant rejections of U.S. culture with literary, often Southern-tinged musical and lyrical vehicles. Hearing this 18-song anthology, with its heavy weighting toward the Canadian quintet's first three albums--Music from Big Pink (four tunes), The Band (five tunes), and Stage Fright (three tunes)--what still stands out is the Band's command of yearning vocal harmonies, their sense of plainly laid melodies that reveal acoustic depth, and a nostalgia for an imagined American culture. With all their quirkiness and the advance of Robbie Robertson as their centerpiece, the Band lost their celebrated place in the rock pantheon within a decade. This set, which opens so magnificently with "The Weight," "Tears of Rage" (cowritten with Dylan), and the big organ-vamping "Chest Fever," declines rather steeply on the final tracks, "Acadian Driftwood" and "The Saga of Pepote Rouge." Up till then, however, this set is fantastic. --Andrew Bartlett

Summary: Great CD
Comment: My parents are pretty cool and listen to many things from the 60s and 70s which has let me hear alot of different rock music that I probably would not have heard otherwise.

And one of those bands is the Band, which really is a great Band, mixing a blend of soul, sothern rock and rock and roll to make memorable songs. You just have to listen to The Night They Drove Old' Dixie Down or Cripple Creek and you will be hooked.

I still like my Disturbed albums and the rest, but it is nice to listen to some things with my parents when I come home to visit and enjoy it with them.
