This is an incredible showcase of a master talent. It gives a nice niddle career retrospective. While nothing on here is as raw as some of Sweet's earlier works, the recording quality of these songs is far superior. Occasionaly falling into the J. Mascis muted fog style of recording the majority of this disc is bright and a sterling examaple of the fine guitar work of this underrated artist. I think this might be the last of my cassette purchases, afine end to the 80's and 90's. It is nice to have this collection as a download, especially since most of Matthew's latest work with (ex-Bangle) Susanna Hoffs contains poorly rendered covers of some twenty or so drippy 60/70's retreads.
