Customer Reviews:

1 out of 5 stars An unauthorized "pirate" release---better to get legit CDs.......2005-06-22

The other reviewer, "The Info Dude," is on the money here, citing the flaws and issues with this CD. What is not obvious is that this is actually an unauthorized "pirate" release that was not issued or sanctioned by Roger Chapman. That's the reason for the sloppy packaging, repeated tracks, lack of coherent liner notes, and overall poor quality here. Hence, the low rating and critical comments are not directed at Mr. Chapman's songs.

Those interested in Roger Chapman's extensive, amazing body of work would do better to purchase one of the other authorized collections, such as the "Family and Friends" box set, thus ensuring that the artist gets the royalties he deserves.
