    This is a superb collection of Blondie’s expertise as one of the most important bands ever!

    For them [super fans], the voluminous and informative liner notes alone, which track Blondie’s history from those who lived it, seldom seen photos, and track specific comments will be worth lightening their bank accounts for. Others less dedicated may want to tread more carefully.

    As far as box sets go, Against the Odds is a textbook example of how to do justice to a band’s legacy.

    Against the Odds perfectly captures the band’s legacy precisely because it presents the history, music, and memories with an admirable degree of honesty and doesn’t try to make the story into something it wasn’t.
