Reception
Steve Leggett of AllMusic: "This two-disc, 39-track set collects all of those singles, from the group’s fiery 1964 cover of “Shakin’ All Over” (sung by Chad Allan—Cummings hadn't yet joined the band) through 1974's willfully nostalgic “Clap for the Wolfman,” which was to be the Guess Who's last big radio hit—they disbanded a year later in 1975. In between they released classics like the gorgeous ballad “These Eyes,” the Zombies-like “Undun,” the fuzz guitar-laced “No Time,” a subtly veiled critique of American capitalism, “American Woman,” the marvelous pop songs “Hand Me Down World” and “Bus Rider,” the stomping “Heartbroken Bopper,” and the driving, slightly sarcastic “Star Baby,” and each of these is collected here, among other interesting tracks."
