Seriously, reviewers, get over yourselves. This is a budget release for the very casual fan or someone who is just looking for one song. Here's how it works: Sony has the majority of the Cheap Trick catalog. They release a variety of
"Best Of/Greatest Hits" packages at various prices and numbers of tracks to appeal to different interest levels of purchasers. The dreaded Sony is not a bunch of obsessive-compulsive collectors, they're business people trying to make a buck in the increasingly difficult music biz. You wanna buy the lavish and completist Box Set? Fine. You don't like how Sony treats the Cheap Trick catalog?
Fine. Be angry at the sun for rising. This is a $6.99 list CD, which is currently selling on Amazon for A PENNY. As such, it has some good tunes and if it gives people pleasure, what harm is done? It's like criticizing an auto manufacturer for making a basic subcompact as well as the $50K GT Sports Coupe. "Different strokes for different folks" we used to say.

3.0 out of 5 stars Cheap Trick - 'Don't Be Cruel' (Sony Music Special Product), October 23, 2006

A second-rate ten track compilation. Don't let the cover mislead you, as this isn't a live CD as I first assumed it might be. Sound quality isn't perfect,but acceptable. Cuts I sort of took notice of(a few that I haven't heard in awhile)were "Surrender", their beloved Elvis cover title track "Don't Be Cruel", "ELO Kiddies" and "Oh,Candy". Pretty much for all you die-hards.
