The Stewart Years is a 10-CD box set and was released in 2000. It contains 286 songs, many of them are previously unissued and live tracks. The set includes a hardcover book containing photos and stories of the group, recording sessions, and notes on the songs.
Allmusic critic Greg Adams was equivocal about the extent of the package, writing: "The Stewart Years is a gorgeous ten-disc box set with hardbound book that collects everything the Trio recorded during Stewart's tenure... The Stewart version of the trio was more pop-oriented, political, and experimental (some unsuccessful attempts at folk-rock are preserved for posterity here). While they had their successes... their clean-cut collegiate image could never quite adapt to the counterculture and protest folk movement... The Stewart Years is a beautiful, comprehensive, and expensive artifact suitable for libraries and affluent fans."[1]
