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.
