I suppose we start off listing to many a band through the compilation album, and during those formative years we can get the impression that these compiled songs are the best that a certain band has to offer, but perhaps they may just be the most popular songs, more often than not they just become singles collections. Looking back it may seem like they are the best songs. Bands like Ten Years After fixed enough filler onto their studio albums which would make a compilation a better listening experience. Of course it's subjective when it comes to bad songs and good songs, but hey, filler is filler in anyones book. When Ten Years After were good they were indeed very good. Strong lyrics, vibrant passages and fantastic guitar playing from Lee, but yes, they were often so very dull. It was not until Crickwood Green that the band formed any sort of consistency with regards to songwritng on their albums. Stonedhenge was good and at the same time brutal. A rushed album with some good songs but the entire album is frustrating and often annoying to listen to. Goin' Home just takes some of the bands more popular songs and some of the better moments from their studio outings. It's a rampant album that cuts away the bullshit filler which plagued many a TYA album. "Hear Me Calling" has all the sultry rock vibes that say "Skoobly-"Oobly-Doobob" doesn't. "Going to Try" quickly carries the momentum from the opening track and the album carries this strong run through the excellent "No Title", the entertaining "Woodchoppers Ball" and the constant TYA favorite, and the song Alvin Lee eventually hated playing, "I'm Going Home". And who could have blamed him for hating performing it? Yes, "I'm Going Home" is all guitar histrionics and all that, but there certainly was more to this band than a jaunt through some guitar noodleing, the good songs are indeed here, but maybe the filler distracted many to the good shit. This album is not complete by any means, it only contains seven tracks, (though "I'm Going" Home rants on for over eleven and a half minutes). I could have done withot "Love Like a Man" if "50,000 Miles Beneath My Brain" or "Working On The Road" might have been included, but then that's the way of the compilation album. There are more than enough Ten Years After comps doing the rounds, and they come quite cheap too, but Goin Home remains one of the better ones.
