Odds & Sods, a compilation of outtakes and rarities from
the Who's first decade, is a rather jumpy listen that harbors few songs that could be termed top of the line. Also, since its 1974 release, several of the tracks have been issued on other compilations. Setting your expectations at the appropriate level, however, you'll find much of this worthwhile.
"Pure and Easy," "Naked Eye," and
"Long Live Rock" were all concert favorites in the '70s,
"Glow Girl" introduced some riffs that would resurface in
Tommy, and
"Postcard," John Entwistle's tale of rock life on the road, was one of his better compositions. This also has their very first single,
"I'm the Face," recorded in 1964 when the group were known as the
High Numbers. ~ Richie Unterberger
