Product Description
The fact that The Who are modern rock gods is never denied. Their musical legacy stretches across nearly 50 years, and can be found in acts as diverse as Oasis, Blur and The Smiths. But they remain in the live arena to this day, touring every year and releasing new albums and even operas to their vast army of fans. `Maximum Who' documents the long career of the band that refuses to die, through mod times to rock excesses in the 70s, all the way up to their performances and motivations today. Audio CD book on a full color picture CD. Contains a biography, complete with commentary & interview excerpts. Comes in a full color slipcase with an eight page photo booklet & one-sided, 10 inch x 10 inch full color poster. Chrome Dreams. 2002. --This text refers to the Audio CD edition.

1.0 out of 5 stars DON'T BUY THIS!, November 13, 2002

By	Christopher L. Behr "Chris Behr" (Starkville, Mississippi United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Maximum the Who (Audio CD)

I ordered a CD titled Maximum BBC, sight unseen, prior to its release date, and got sent this piece of [garbage] instead. There is no music by the band on this album; instead, it's an audio bio narrated by some obnoxious British woman telling you a story that you already know by heart, full of the writer's opinions and negative, sarcastic remarks about the U.S., all to the tune of the same boring repetitive backing music that was obviously created on a synthesizer workstation and is quite tedious to listen to. The only Who material present consists of some excerpts from old interviews that are poorly reproduced and hence barely intelligible. I'd give it a zero if I could.
