Sure have, and I'm loving it.

The English leanings are by design. NUGGETS II is intended to be a non-US 
version of the original. Lots of UK acts, plus some from Australia, Canada, 
and beyond.

And yeah, there's a few bigger names on there, but the style fits in so well 
with the rest of the box that I can't argue. A real fun surprise for me (as a 
Who freak) was a very cool cover "Circles".

If you liked the first, you'll probably like this one too.
