Issued in 2006, this well-selected two-disc set features a generous collection of solo tracks by Who frontman Roger Daltrey. Drawing largely from his 1970s and `80s albums, GOLD presents the mega-voiced Brit in a surprisingly poppy mode on songs such as the jaunty "One Man Band" and the emotive "Give It All Away" (both penned by Leo Sayer), and in a harder rocking style on the majestic "After the Fire" (written by Who mastermind Pete Townshend) and the surging "Under a Raging Moon." The anthology is rounded out by the charismatic singer`s energetic live renditions of Bruce Springsteen`s "Born to Run" and Who classics such as "Behind Blue Eyes" and "Baba O`Riley," making this the definitive Daltrey compilation.
