4.0 out of 5 stars Anything you could want to hear...almost!, December 28, 2004

By	T. Long "20+ year fan!" (Delaware Neighbor) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I spent the better part of four hours last weekend racing on an X-Box with a friend. The finest part was turning down the video soundtrack and substituting George Thorogood's 30 Years of Rock collection! Talk about adrenaline pumping tunes!! The collection and body of work offered by this man has stood the test of time over these years, and is summarized beautifully in this anthology. The only disappointment was "Ride On Josephine" is conspicuously absent from the CD. Oh well...can't have everthing. I'll just have to buy another thoroughly good Thorogood CD to get that track! Ride on, George...ride on!

5.0 out of 5 stars Thorogood rocks., July 9, 2005

By	Nicholas J. Bertollo (Gettysburg, Pennsylvania United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I found this album in Wal Mart for nine bucks, and at that price it was an absolute steal.

This has got George's best known songs on it as well as two great live cuts. Great all-American rock and roll. When I hear "One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer" I get goosebumps. I could've done without the remix of "Who Do You Love?", especially when you consider (as another reviewer pointed out) "Ride On Josephine" isn't on this, but that's seriously a minor quibble for the insane price I nabbed this for. I love it and I'm glad I've got in in the old music collection.

Maybe when I'm out of college and have some money to burn I'll get George's catalogue, but for now this greatest hits comp is a can't miss.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Classic and a Must-Have, August 23, 2007

Buy this, now.

You've all ready come far enough to look at this review so, obviously, you have some appreciation for at least this genre, if you don't all ready know who George Thorogood and the Destroyers are. If this is true, then you need this album. However you wound up reading this, take it as fate and make a good decision.

There is no better than One Scotch, One Bourbon, One Beer, or I Drink Alone when it comes to cracking open a beer and having a good time. And who doesn't love that?
