Flawed but exhaustive study of punk...This set is a lot of bang for the buck. About 300 mostly forgotten songs on twenty jam-packed CD's. But the sound quality is very poor. It sounds better on bad stereo equipment. Maybe that's ideal for any punk set. The booklet is sketchy and contains no information beyond song titles. I even wonder if the company that put this out legally licensed all this music. That said, I have it at my office and it's cool listening.

Unfortunately the person that put together this 'entire' history of punk did not do his homoework. He did a fantastic job of finding every early 80s Brit-Punk (I know there are other bands but not that many.)band but forgot every other region and time period in which punk had existed. Thus at bes tthe title is a misnomer and at worst it is a blatant lie. Basically what this collection is analogous to is a student who used only one book on his term paper and claimed that he knows everything that there may be on the selected topic.As exhaustive as the collection may seem, it still does not manage to give us every single Brit-Punk band forgetting quite a few of the lesser ones and some of the greater ones such as Deadmans Shadow, the Sex Aids, and Red Alert I think are missing.All of this is ok of course if it were not for the random arrangement of the songs. The songs are not arranged either chronologically nor alphebetically. What this means for the listener is that if he is not familiar with any given band he will have to refer back to the booklet because he will have no way of finding out just by guessing as it is like poking a needle in a haystack. Furthermore the collection misses Germany and Sweden and Finalnd completely, and stops the history of punk in the early 80s.There is plenty of music on this collection however it could have not only been better arranged but more could have been included. Plus the price is rather bad.
