I will definitely get this set. I'm not usually someone who quibbles with track listings on compilations, but the lack of "Stupefaction" anywhere on these discs is disappointing. That was the GP song that won me over as a teenager in 1980 and it's certainly representative of that era. Even a version from the reunion shows would have been nice. Otherwise, no complaints with the track listing here.

Both Local Girls and Mercury Poisoning are major omissions. What the heck?

There are three live versions of "Fool's Gold," but not the studio version.

Just my opinion, but...
I see a NEARLY comprehensive audio and video overview of Graham Parker And The Rumour plus a near worthless gloss (20 songs covering 30 years and about 20 albums) of everything else Parker has done.
I think they should have cut 1 disc and just done a GP&TR box. As it is, most of Discs 2 and 3 insult GP's work...
Or they should have added used another CD to more adequately represent his 80s/90s/00s work.
I'm definitely gonna skip this and focus on the late 80s/early 90s reissues coming out soon (
