Disc 3 is the best
It has his classics "Corey's Coming", "If My Mary Were Here", and "Danceband on the Titanic", live versions of "Flowers are Red" and "Old Folkie", and his rare recordings such as "November Rains" and "Last Stand" (the latter being the best). This boxed set into the life and music of Harry Chapin is full of good music and great insight into his life and times, but it's really the last CD of the three disc sets that makes the album. On its own 8/10. With the last disc 10/10. .


Great collection, but....
And where is "Bummer"? . the reason I only give it 4 stars is because no Harry Chapin collection is complete without "There Only Was One Choice".


What can one say?
As a LONG time fan of Harry Chapin I can only say if you're any fan at all this is the one CD set you need to either start or complete your Harry collection!.


Great CD set
And the CDs are inserted in a book with photos and stories from people in his life which are very interesting to read. This 3 CD set is exactly what I was looking for, has all of Chapin's best songs on it and is comprehensive of his work. I would definitely recommend it!.


Great collection!
I had thoroughly enjoyed Harry's music in years past and found this to be a wonderfully complete collection allowing me to just remember those days!.
