{"title":"The Who","description":"\u003cp\u003eOne of the major bands of the rock \u0026amp; roll era, the Who straddle the gap separating art-pop and hard-rock, creating kinetic, exploratory music that helped expand the genre's lexicon. Arriving during the second wave of the British Invasion, the Who came out of the R\u0026amp;B-besotted Mod scene and married that groove to the crunching power chords pioneered by the Kinks. After their debut single \"I Can't Explain\" cracked the U.K. Top Ten in 1965, the band quickly gained a reputation for their volcanic live performances, which could escalate into Pete Townshend violently shattering his guitar while Keith Moon destroyed his drum kit with glee. This volatility represented a new, dangerous streak within rock \u0026amp; roll and Townshend channeled this angst and upheaval into his original songs, starting with the epochal \"My Generation,\" where Roger Daltrey sneered \"I hope I die before I get old.\" Townshend's provocations extended into playing with the form and sound of the pop single during the mid-'60s, an artistic restlessness that led to the groundbreaking conceptual 1967 album The Who Sell Out. Despite their innovations, the Who didn't achieve superstar status until Townshend wrote Tommy, a rock opera released in 1969 that brought them a new level of acclaim and success. Who's Next cemented their status as hard rock pioneers, and after its 1971 release, they became one of the biggest bands of the decade. During this time, intraband tensions and excess ran high, culminating in Moon's accidental death in 1978. Townshend, Daltrey, and bassist John Entwistle carried on before launching a farewell tour in 1982. The split didn't last long. The group toured again a couple of decades later in 1989 -- it would be the first of many temporary reunions that eventually coalesced into a permanent arrangement in the late '90s. From that point on, the Who was a going concern, continuing even after Entwistle's death in 2002. New records may have been sporadic -- Endless Wire became their first record in 24 years in 2006, and another 13 years passed before they delivered Who in 2019 -- but Townshend and Daltrey continued to tour as the Who well into the 2020s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTownshend and Entwistle met while attending high school in London's Shepherd's Bush area. In their early teens, they played in a Dixieland band, with Entwistle on trumpet and Townshend on banjo. By the early '60s, the pair had formed a rock \u0026amp; roll band, but in 1962 Entwistle joined the Detours, a hard-edged group featuring a sheet-metal worker named Roger Daltrey on lead guitar. By the end of the year, Townshend had joined as a rhythm guitarist, and in 1963 Daltrey became the band's lead vocalist after Colin Dawson left. The group's sound evolved rapidly, influenced not only by American acts such as James Brown, Booker T. \u0026amp; the MG's, and Eddie Cochran, but also by one classic British act, Johnny Kidd \u0026amp; the Pirates, who rocked the British charts with an original called \"Shakin' All Over\" (which Townshend and company added to their set list). They built their reputation on fierce renditions of American-style R\u0026amp;B, which relied on a lean single guitar\/bass\/drums approach with the guitarist playing lead and rhythm, a rarity in England at the time. Townshend, realizing that approach suited him, became the band's lone guitarist. A name change also followed; with the Beatles burning up the charts, they needed something more striking than the Detours. Daltrey and Townshend settled on the Who, which initially confused people in conversation, but had a memorable effect on posters. Amid these changes, original drummer Doug Sandom -- who was married and considerably older than the others -- parted ways with the band just as they were about to attempt cutting a record. The group replaced him with Keith Moon, previously the drummer for the surf-rock group the Beachcombers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs the group struggled to catch a break, Townshend attended art school, while the remaining three worked odd jobs. The band became regulars at the Marquee Club in London and attracted a small following, leading to the interest of manager Pete Meaden. Under his direction, the Who were renamed the High Numbers and dressed in sharp suits to appeal to style- and R\u0026amp;B-obsessed mods. Many R\u0026amp;B-oriented groups tried to cultivate relationships with the mods, who could fill clubs and help propel a record onto the charts; among those who succeeded most, besides the Who, were the Small Faces (\"face\" being a part of mod slang) and the Move.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe High Numbers released one single, \"I'm the Face.\" After it bombed, they began working with Kit Lambert and Chris Stamp, two fledgling music business entrepreneurs. Lambert was the son of composer\/arranger Constant Lambert; Stamp was the brother of actor Terence Stamp, and both wanted to make their mark on England's percolating music scene. Lambert spotted the group playing at the Railway Hotel in the wake of \"I'm the Face\" and brought in Stamp. Lambert and Stamp encouraged them to embrace the mod movement, advising them on what to play and wear, including the target T-shirt that became a visual signature. The group reclaimed the Who name and began playing a set consisting entirely of soul, R\u0026amp;B, and Motown -- or, as their posters said, \"Maximum R\u0026amp;B.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDuring this period, Townshend smashed his first guitar at a gig at the Railway Hotel by accident. A temporary stage extension built by the band caused him to hit the ceiling with his guitar; frustrated by the damage, and the crowd's reaction, he struck it until it was in pieces; he was only able to finish the show by using a recently acquired 12-string Rickenbacker. The following week, he discovered that people had come to see him smash his guitar. He eventually obliged with encouragement from Keith Moon, who attacked his drum kit. At first Lambert and Stamp were appalled, but Townshend soon demolished another guitar as part of Lambert's publicity campaign (and it worked, even though the journalist for whose benefit he committed the destruction never actually saw it). He didn't smash guitars at every show in those days; what he was doing in terms of generating feedback sufficed in most audience's minds. It did enhance their status with the mods: by late 1964, they'd developed an enthusiastic following: mods loved destruction as part of an act.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the end of 1964, Townshend presented the group with an original song called \"I Can't Explain,\" which owed a little to the Kinks' \"You Really Got Me,\" but had lots of fresh angles. Townshend's lyrics gave a vivid impression of teenage angst perfect for Daltrey's powerful vocals and the band's full-bore attack. The result was equally punchy, sensitive, and macho, with a mean lead guitar and even some harmonies. The band and their managers thought it seemed like a great potential debut single for the newly rechristened Who. So did producer Shel Talmy, an American based in England who was producing the Kinks' records (including \"You Really Got Me\"). Talmy got the band a contract with the American Decca Records label on the strength of \"I Can't Explain\" and followed it with a contract with English Decca (the two companies were separate entities at the time).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Talmy-produced single arrived to little attention in January 1965. After the group's incendiary performance on the television program Ready, Steady, Go -- which featured Townshend and Moon destroying their instruments -- \"I Can't Explain\" reached the British Top Ten. Their next single, that summer's \"Anyway, Anyhow, Anywhere,\" declared the mod ethos to the world: \"I can go anywhere (where I choose).\" While it wasn't far removed from the mentality behind early rock \u0026amp; roll anthems, the Who made it sound resolutely English. That fall, \"My Generation\" climbed to number two on the charts, confirming their status as a British pop phenomenon. An album of the same name appeared at year's end, featuring various R\u0026amp;B covers and some interesting originals (mostly by Townshend) on the U.K. Brunswick label.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEarly in 1966, \"Substitute\" became their fourth British Top Ten hit. Produced by Kit Lambert, the single marked the band's acrimonious split with Talmy and the end of the group's British Decca\/Brunswick recording contract. Lambert and Stamp also tried to scrap the American Decca deal, but that proved impossible. Starting with \"Substitute,\" the band was signed to Polydor in England, and released on Reaction. For a time, there were rival releases on Brunswick and Reaction, but the competition was eventually sorted out in Lambert and Stamp's (and the band's) favor. \"I'm a Boy,\" released in the summer of 1966, was the first Who single without a rival release on Brunswick, and it showed just how far the band and Townshend had come in 18 months. During this period, Lambert introduced Townshend to a huge range of classical music that broadened his way of thinking about composition, songs, and subject matter: \"I'm a Boy,\" about a teenage boy forced to dress and act like a girl by his dominating mother, carried an amazing amount of exposition, but left plenty of room for the band's furious attack. In their own way, the Who were having as profound effect on rock \u0026amp; roll as the Beatles or the Rolling Stones: they generated immensely popular English singles that redefined the acceptable content and boundaries of pop\/rock music and were also some of the era's hardest -- yet most melodic and complex -- songs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe story in the United States was very different. \"I Can't Explain\" barely created a ripple, and \"Anyway, Anyhow, Anywhere\" didn't do much better, despite publicity on the ABC television rock \u0026amp; roll showcase Shindig. Even with Decca getting behind \"My Generation\" for a major marketing push, it only got to number 74, a shadow of what it did in England. British success was all well and good, but it wasn't enough. The instrument-smashing routine and the attendant effects (often involving flash-powder and damage to Moon's drums, as well as Townshend's guitars) were frightfully expensive, and the band was carrying an ongoing debt that drove expenses through the roof. Financial ruin was never far from the thoughts of their management, despite the fact that Lambert and Stamp now had their own Polydor imprint, Track Records -- which had a new signing in late 1966, a transplanted American guitarist\/singer named Jimi Hendrix. A breakthrough for the Who in America, or in the album market in a major way, was essential.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor their second album, Lambert, Stamp, and the band had a more ambitious agenda. Townshend's success at writing singles inspired the Who's managers, and it was decided that this time, every member of the band would contribute songs to generate more revenue. Although this meant A Quick One was uneven, Lambert's presence allowed Townshend to write the title track as a ten-minute mini-opera. \"A Quick One While He's Away\" found Townshend writing (and the Who singing and playing) in idioms far beyond rock \u0026amp; roll, including faux Western and faux operetta. Getting dedicated rockers Daltrey and Entwistle to throw their full talents into the music, and the track's successful extended narrative, showed Townshend and company that this idea had potential. A Quick One also provided a canvas for Entwistle's blossoming songwriting: His macabre humor shone through on the catchy \"Boris the Spider\" and \"Whisky Man,\" the latter showing off his skills on the French horn. Moon's \"Cobwebs and Strange\" was also a suitable moment of light humor, and even Daltrey -- whose songwriting aspirations never rated much of his attention -- contributed \"See My Way.\" A Quick One had a diversity of sounds and creative voices, though the Who got relatively little recognition for it at the time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUpon its 1966 release, A Quick One became another British hit, and also provided a minor American breakthrough. Retitled Happy Jack, its title track reached the Top 40 in early 1967. To do that, the Who played the U.S. as part of a package tour organized by DJ-turned-impresario Murray the K. Booked alongside Cream, folkies Jim \u0026amp; Jean, and Wilson Pickett, doing short sets five times a day, the group got the necessary exposure to a wider public, even though \"Happy Jack\"'s vocal harmonies and relatively restrained guitars made it an atypical Who song. Their next major U.S. milestone was playing the Fillmore in San Francisco. For that occasion, they had a problem that was the reverse of the Murray the K performances: the latter had been too slight at 15 to 20 minutes, but their usual 40-minute sets were too short for the Fillmore. In the Richard Barnes book Maximum R\u0026amp;B, it was recalled that to lengthen their set, they learned the entire mini-opera and the rest of A Quick One, which they hadn't performed live. After the Fillmore gig in June 1967, they played their most important American show yet, the Monterey International Pop Festival, which put them in a duel with labelmate Jimi Hendrix to see who could end their set more outrageously. Hendrix won with his incendiary performance, but the Who acquitted themselves admirably with a dramatic destruction of their instruments. Reverting to their old stage antics was especially awkward, as they'd finished an album and single that represented a new phase.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConstructed as a mock-pirate radio broadcast, The Who Sell Out was a concept album and a loving tribute to England's pirate radio stations, which had been closed in a government crackdown. The group threw everything they had into the album in order to solidify their position in England and finally crack the U.S. market, including the classic \"I Can See for Miles.\" An explosion of excitement and controlled tension, it seemed like a certain chart-topper. Daltrey's performance was the best of his career to date, matched by Townshend's slashing guitar, Moon's frenetic drumming, and Entwistle's anchor-like bass. It took a lot of work at three different studios -- including Los Angeles' Gold Star -- on two continents and two coasts to get that sound; as a consequence, it was so difficult to perform that it became the only hit that they abandoned playing live. It became their first Top Ten hit in America, and reached number two in England, but that wasn't sufficient for what the band or their management needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe group spent much of 1968 seeing the singles \"Call Me Lightning,\" \"Magic Bus,\" and \"Dogs\" -- inspired by Townshend's interest in dog racing -- fail to meet expectations. Track Records, squeezed for cash even with Hendrix's burgeoning sales, assembled Direct Hits, which compiled the band's recent singles (minus the Shel Talmy-produced Brunswick sides). In the United States, Decca Records -- with only two actual \"hits\" by the group to work with, plus \"Magic Bus\" (which did unexpectedly well on that side of the Atlantic) -- released Magic Bus, an unacknowledged compilation album built around the hit and drawn from U.K. singles, EPs, and recent album tracks. It was misleadingly subtitled \"The Who on Tour,\" and that's a lot of what they did in 1968, especially in the United States, but not the way they did in 1967; this time, they were playing places like the Fillmore East, where they recorded one set for a possible live album. This plan went awry when the show wasn't quite good enough to represent the group, and was abandoned entirely after the vast changes in their songbook in 1969. While making their first serious long-term headway in the U.S., the band -- mostly Townshend, in collaboration with Lambert on the early libretto -- were devising and recording a large-scale work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTommy arrived in May of 1969, more than a year-and-a-half after The Who Sell Out. However, it was still unfinished; the band wanted to add more instruments on certain songs, and Entwistle was particularly upset at the bass sound on the released recording. But they were out of money and options, so Tommy was released as a work in progress. And for the first time, the stars aligned in the Who's favor, especially in the United States. The serious rock press seized on the album as a masterpiece, while the mainstream press started to take rock music seriously. The Who were new and fresh enough, and Tommy ambitious enough, that it became one of the most widely reviewed and written-about albums in history. Tommy climbed into the American Top Ten as the group supported the album with an extensive tour where they played the complete opera. In some respects, Tommy became too successful. Audiences expected it to be done in its entirety at every show, and suddenly the Who were routinely playing for two hours at a clip. The work soon overshadowed the Who; it was performed as a play, redone as an orchestrated all-star extravaganza (starring Daltrey and featuring Townshend's guitar), and would eventually be filmed by Ken Russell in 1975 (the movie starred Daltrey). In 1993, Townshend turned it into a Broadway musical with director Des McAnuff.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile Tommy kept the band busy touring for almost two years, how to follow it stumped Townshend. As he worked on new material, the group released Live at Leeds in 1970 (which yielded the hit single \"Summertime Blues\"), as well as the single \"The Seeker,\" giving them some breathing room. Eventually, he settled on Lifehouse, a sci-fi rock opera strongly influenced by the teachings of his guru, Meher Baba, that pushed the group into new sonic territory with electronics and synthesizers. The rest of the Who weren't particularly enthralled with Lifehouse, claiming not to understand its plot, and their reluctance contributed to Townshend suffering a nervous breakdown. Once he recovered, the group picked up the pieces of the abandoned project and recorded Who's Next with producer Glyn Johns. Boasting a harder sound, Who's Next was a major hit, and many of its tracks -- including \"Baba O'Riley,\" \"Bargain,\" \"Behind Blue Eyes,\" and \"Won't Get Fooled Again\" (which were both issued as singles), and Entwistle's \"My Wife\" -- became cornerstones of '70s album-oriented FM radio. The Who's Next tour solidified the band as one of the two top live rock attractions in the world along with the Rolling Stones. Suddenly their history was of interest to millions of fans; Meaty Beaty Big and Bouncy, a 14-song retrospective of their singles, also sold in massive numbers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe success of Who's Next spurred Townshend to attempt another opera. With Quadrophenia, he abandoned fantasy to sketch a portrait of a '60s mod. He stopped working with Kit Lambert, who lost influence with the group in Tommy's wake; the band also left Lambert and Stamp's management. As Townshend wrote the album in 1972, he released Who Came First, a collection of private recordings and demos he made for Meher Baba. Entwistle began his own solo career with Smash Your Head Against the Wall, which he followed with Whistle Rhymes, released the same day as Townshend's album. A double album, Quadrophenia, sold extremely well, but it proved to be a troublesome concert piece. It was difficult to play live, and few outside of England were familiar with its mod subject matter. It soon became clear that audiences hadn't had the time to familiarize themselves with the work, leading to a lukewarm response on tour. After some retooling, the group performed an abbreviated version of Quadrophenia with some success.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Who began to fragment after Quadrophenia's release. In public, Townshend fretted over his role as a rock spokesman; in private, he sank into alcohol abuse. Entwistle concentrated on his solo career, including recording with his side projects Ox and Rigor Mortis. Meanwhile, Daltrey approached the peak of his powers: he had become a truly great singer and was surprisingly comfortable as an actor as he alternately pursued a film career and solo albums. Moon continued to party, celebrating his substance abuse and releasing the solo album Two Sides of the Moon. During this hiatus, the group issued the rarities collection Odds \u0026amp; Sods (1974), which surpassed existing bootleg collections and charted like a new release. Meanwhile, Townshend worked on new songs, resulting in 1975's disarmingly personal The Who by Numbers. The album was a hit, though its number eight placement in the U.S. reflected listeners' modestly diminishing enthusiasm (Quadrophenia, despite being a rather expensive double LP built around a somewhat outré subject, reached number two on both sides of the Atlantic). Following The Who by Numbers tour, the band took an extended hiatus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDuring the late '70s, they started to succumb to age and the rock \u0026amp; roll lifestyle. After years of playing live, Townshend permanently damaged his hearing. On their 1976 tour, Moon collapsed on-stage just a few minutes into a show at the Boston Garden. He recovered and seemed to laugh off the incident, while an audience member sat in behind the drum kit to allow the band to finish playing. He continued partying and even suggested a possible successor, ex-Small Faces\/Faces drummer Kenney Jones. The Who reconvened in early 1978 to record Who Are You, which was released that August, accompanied by a stunning promotional\/performance video of the title song. Instead of responding to the insurgent punk movement, which labeled the Who as has-beens, the album represented the group's heaviest flirtation with prog rock since Quadrophenia. It was a huge hit, peaking at number two in the American charts and selling platinum. Instead of being a triumphant comeback, however, Who Are You became a symbol of tragedy: on September 7, 1978, Moon died of a drug overdose. Since he was such an integral part of the Who's sound and image, the band debated carrying on. Though they continued, all three surviving members later claimed they felt the Who ended with Moon's death.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey took Moon's suggestion and hired Small Faces drummer Kenney Jones as his replacement, as well as keyboardist John \"Rabbit\" Bundrick, and began working on new material in 1979. Before they released a new record, they released the live documentary The Kids Are Alright and contributed music to Franc Roddam's cinematic adaptation of Quadrophenia, which starred Phil Daniels. The Who began touring later that year, but the tour's momentum was destroyed when 11 attendees at the group's December 3, 1979, concert at Cincinnati's Riverfront Coliseum were trampled to death in a rush for choice festival seating. The band wasn't informed of the incident until after the concert, and the tragedy deflated whatever goodwill they had.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFollowing the Cincinnati concert, the Who slowly fell apart. Townshend became addicted to cocaine, heroin, tranquilizers, and alcohol, suffering a near-fatal overdose in 1981. Meanwhile, Entwistle and Daltrey soldiered on in their solo careers. The band reconvened in 1981 to record their first album since Moon's death, Face Dances, a hit that received mixed reviews. The following year, they released It's Hard and embarked on a supporting tour billed as their farewell to fans, with the live Who's Last arriving in 1984 as a commemoration of the tour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe farewell tour wasn't the Who's final goodbye, however. While Entwistle and Daltrey's solo careers lost momentum in the '80s, Townshend continued recording to relative success. However, the Who still haunted him. The group reunited to play Live Aid in 1985, and three years later, they played a British music awards program. In 1989, Townshend agreed to reunite (minus Jones, who was replaced by session drummer Simon Phillips) for a 25th anniversary American tour, which was perceived as a way to make a lot of money -- which Daltrey and especially Entwistle needed. They followed it with a live album, Join Together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Who reconvened in 1994 for two concerts celebrating Daltrey's 50th birthday, commercial success that helped Townshend's effort to bring Tommy to the Broadway stage. It became a huge hit and revived interest in the album. Townshend revived Quadrophenia in 1996, reuniting the Who to perform it at the Prince's Trust concert in Hyde Park that summer, and it was followed that fall by an American tour that proved to be a failure. The following summer, the Who launched an oldies tour of America that was ignored by the press. In October 2001, they played the Concert for New York City benefit for families of the victims of the September 11 attacks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn late June 2002, the Who were about to kick off a North American tour when Entwistle died at the age of 57 in Las Vegas' Hard Rock Hotel. In 2006, Townshend and Daltrey released the mini-opera Wire \u0026amp; Glass, their first collaboration as the Who in over 20 years. The full-length Endless Wire, which included the EP, was released later that year to the best reviews of any Who album since Who Are You 28 years earlier; the accompanying tour was similarly well-received. On December 7, 2008, at a gala ceremony in Washington, D.C., Townshend and Daltrey received Kennedy Center Honors for the Who's lifetime contributions to American culture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTownshend rumbled about the Who writing and recording new material, but instead he and Daltrey turned their attention to Quadrophenia, once again touring the album in its entirety. After a full performance in 2010 to benefit the Teenage Cancer Trust, the Quadrophenia and More tour began in the summer of 2012 and ran for over a year, culminating with a July concert at Wembley Arena that was later released as the live package Quadrophenia: Live in London. This 2014 release was the opening salvo in a farewell tour, with dates in 2015 in cities they hadn't played previously. A hits compilation appeared late in 2014; titled The Who Hits 50!, it included the band's first new material in almost a decade with the song \"Be Lucky.\" The Who supported The Who Hits 50! with a tour that ran into 2016. Townshend and Daltrey then turned their attention to completing their first album since 2006's Endless Wire. Entitled Who, the record appeared in December 2019, hitting number two in the U.S. and three in the U.K. The following year saw a special archival release of the Who's legendary 1967 Monterey International Pop Festival performance titled A Quick Live One. A super deluxe edition of the landmark The Who Sell Out arrived in 2021. The Who returned to the road in 2022 with The Who Hits Back tour, augmented by an orchestra for this particular leg of the journey. In 2023, the Who unveiled their next major archival project: a ten-CD Super Deluxe edition of Who's Next, featuring Pete Townshend's original Lifehouse demos as well as two complete concerts, corresponding singles and stray tunes, as well as outtakes. ~ Bruce Eder \u0026amp; Stephen Thomas Erlewine, Rovi\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"the-who-tommy-half-speed-mastering-2-lps","title":"Tommy (Half-Speed Mastering) (2 Lp's)","description":"\u003cp\u003eTracksCredits - Disc 1 - 1 Overture 2 It's a Boy 3 1921 4 Amazing Journey 5 Sparks 6 Eyesight for the Blind (The Hawker) - Disc 2 - 1 Christmas 2 Cousin Kevin 3 The Acid Queen 4 Underture - Disc 3 - 1 Do You Think It's Alright? 2 Fiddle About 3 Pinball Wizard 4 There's a Doctor 5 Go to the Mirror! 6 Tommy, Can You Hear Me? 7 Smash the Mirror 8 Sensation - Disc 4 - 1 Miracle Cure 2 Sally Simpson 3 I'm Free 4 Welcome 5 Tommy's Holiday Camp 6 We're Not Gonna Take It\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Rock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 07\/08\/2022\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Who","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43664649519337,"sku":"8H263C-S8HR-00","price":54.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/files\/The-Who-Tommy-Half-Speed-Mastering-2-Lps_Rdw48.jpg?v=1745428278"},{"product_id":"the-who-whos-next-import-180-gram-vinyl","title":"Who's Next [Import] (180 Gram Vinyl)","description":"The Who: Pete Townshend (vocals, guitar, piano, organ, ARP synthesizer); John Entwistle (vocals, brass, piano, bass); Keith Moon (drums, percussion).\r\nAdditional personnel: Leslie West (guitar); Dave Arbus (violin); Nicky Hopkins (piano); Al Kooper (organ).\r\nProducers: The Who, Kit Lambert, Keith Moon.\r\nReissue producer: Jon Astley.\r\nIncludes liner notes by Pete Townshend and John Atkins.\r\nThe Who: Roger Daltrey (vocals); Pete Townshend (guitar, piano, organ, ARP synthesizer, background vocals); John Entwistle (horns, piano, bass, background vocals); Keith Moon (drums, percussion).\r\nAdditional personnel: Leslie West (guitar); Nicky Hopkins (piano).\r\nProducers: The Who, Glyn Johns, Kit Lambert.\r\nRecorded between 1968 \u0026amp; 1971. Includes liner notes by Pete Townshend, John Atkins, and Chris Charlesworth.\r\nThough Pete Townshend was originally unhappy with WHO'S NEXT, it was quickly welcomed by critics and fans, becoming one of the most celebrated titles in their enduring catalog. His frustrations boiled down to the album being a compromised version of a larger work he'd envisioned, LIFEHOUSE, which proved too unwieldy to be realized. Expanded to a two-disc set with essays by both Townshend and John Atkins, the original nine-song album is expanded with six additional studio tracks.\r\nThese include earlier versions of the album's songs and a cover of Holland-Dozier-Holland's \"Baby Don't You Do It.\" Recorded in New York during the spring of 1971 in the midst of a fraying relationship with producer Kit Lambert, the early cuts clearly don't have the sonic breadth and wallop of what the Who achieved back in England later in the year, but are fascinating nonetheless. The second disc was recorded live before an invited audience, and was originally part of the album's grand plan. Mixing new material with covers (\"Road Runner;\" Mose Allison's \"Young Man Blues\") and original tunes from their past (the anthem \"My Generation\"), the band plays with a palpable urgency and fire. This was the Who at the peak of its powers, a status the group would retain as a live act through the '70s.\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRSD Date: n\/a\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 11\/29\/12\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Who","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43759616655593,"sku":"LUMKY0-TTV6-00","price":36.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/files\/The-Who-Whos-Next-Import-180-Gram-Vinyl_1PW91.jpg?v=1741902259"},{"product_id":"the-who-maximum-as-bs-5cd","title":"MAXIMUM AS \u0026 BS (5CD","description":"Audio Remasterer: Jon Astley.Liner Note Authors: Chris Charlesworth; Matt Kent; Roger Daltrey; Mark Blake.\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: CD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 10\/27\/2017\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Who","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44562220384489,"sku":"HDKYPX-AP1A-00","price":86.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/files\/The-Who-MAXIMUM-AS-BS-5CD_G8rIp_31c645c5-862f-4251-b959-69b5017a2c06.jpg?v=1758867837"},{"product_id":"the-who-the-who-with-orchestra-live-at-wembley-2-cd-blu-ray","title":"The Who With Orchestra: Live At Wembley [2 CD\/Blu-ray]","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Who With Orchestra: Live At Wembley [2 CD\/Blu-ray] is a Music CDs from The Who\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: CD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 11\/4\/2022\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Who","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44562473615593,"sku":"8ACG4V-LN9S-00","price":42.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/files\/the-who-the-who-with-orchestra-live-at-wembley-2-cdblu-ray_Om7Ul.jpg?v=1758759495"},{"product_id":"the-who-live-at-leeds","title":"LIVE AT LEEDS","description":"The Who: Roger Daltrey (vocals, harmonica), Pete Townshend (guitar, vocals), John Entwistle (bass, vocals), Keith Moon (drums).\nReissue producer: Jon Astley.\nRecorded live at Leeds University, Leeds, England on February 14, 1970.

The original LIVE AT LEEDS album, released in 1970, looked straight into the eye of this hurricane on a single disc featuring six tracks. A 1995 reissue doubled the number of songs. The DELUXE EDITION, however, released in 2001, is the first document to feature the Leeds concert in its entirety. Spread out over two discs, this most recent update is definitive, and includes a 28-page booklet, sections of band-audience banter, and--most importantly--a full performance of TOMMY. The sound, enhanced here in a new mix supervised by guitarist\/songwriter Pete Townshend, is crystalline, without losing any of the group's swirling chaos and bone-crushing sonic impact. Though the Who later began to abridge TOMMY live, disc two features the entire opera, while the first disc houses \"Substitute,\" \"My Generation,\" and a blood-pumping cover of \"Summertime Blues,\" among other singles. For any Who fan, this edition is essential.\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Rock and Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: CD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 6\/7\/1990\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Who","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44562594267369,"sku":"ZPMRIC-HVK3-00","price":19.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/files\/The-Who-LIVE-AT-LEEDS_tDK59.jpg?v=1758900191"},{"product_id":"the-who-the-who-by-numbers-remastered","title":"The Who By Numbers (Remastered)","description":"The 1996 reissue of THE WHO BY NUMBERS contains three live bonus tracks that weren't on the original LP. \"Squeeze Box,\" \"Behind Blue Eyes\" and \"Dreaming From The Waist\" were recorded live in Swansea, Wales in 1976.\r\nThe Who: Pete Townshend (vocals, guitar, keyboards); John Entwistle (vocals, brass, bass); Roger Daltrey (vocals); Keith Moon (drums).\r\nReissue producers: Jon Astley, Andy Macpherson.\r\nRecorded in 1975 \u0026amp; 1976.

It includes a pair of certified classics in \"Slip Kid' and \"Squeeze Box,\" as well as two of Townshend's prettiest ballads, \"Imagine a Man\" and \"Blue Red and Grey.\" Released at a time when the man who wrote \"I hope I die before I get old\" was turning 30, many of the songs on WHO BY NUMBERS seem to be Townshend's way of dealing with the hardships of life as a hard-living, quickly aging rock star.\r\nMelancholy, world-weary and nostalgic, WHO BY NUMBERS is a far cry from the youthful playfulness of early albums like THE WHO SELL OUT. The album was evidently the product of four exhausted musicians, as the next Who album did not appear until three years later. Although not as bombastically exciting as WHO'S NEXT or LIVE AT LEEDS, THE WHO BY NUMBERS does include standout ensemble work from everyone involved (especially bassist John Entwistle) and serves as a fascinating mid-'70s snapshot of rock gods turning pensive at the height of their fame.\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: CD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 11\/19\/1996\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Who","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44563153551593,"sku":"OQ39BG-3HIY-00","price":20.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/files\/The-Who-The-Who-By-Numbers-Remastered_BoQi6.jpg?v=1758750949"},{"product_id":"the-who-snapback-hat-black","title":"The Who Snapback Hat (Black)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Apparel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandling Note: **Please allow an additional 72 hours for this item's shipment.**\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 01\/01\/1980\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: General\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Who","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44563389841641,"sku":"5CJRY5-LM9K-00","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/files\/The-Who-Snapback-Hat-Black_nrcjM.jpg?v=1737738733"},{"product_id":"the-who-quadrophenidlx-5dsc","title":"QUADROPHENI(DLX\/5DSC","description":"Personnel: Pete Townshend, Simon Townshend (vocals, guitar); Roger Daltrey (vocals); Reggie Grisham, Dylan Hart (horns); Frank Simes, John Corey, Loren Gold (keyboards); Scott Devours (drums).\nAudio Mixer: Gareth Johnson.\nRecording information: The Kitchen, Thessally Road, Battersea (07\/08\/2013); Wembley Arena, London, UK (07\/08\/2013).\nDirector: Chris Rule.\nPhotographer: Jeff Veitch.\nWhen the Who initially attempted to tour Quadrophenia in 1974, the results were a disaster. The band performed the rock opera alongside a series of backing tapes containing synthesizers and sound effects, a decision that put the mercurial Who into a straitjacket and led to uncharacteristically restrained performances. For years, the legend that Quadrophenia didn't lend itself to the stage persisted but things started to change in 1996, when an all-star production was launched at London's Hyde Park. This was such a rousing success that U.K. and U.S. tours followed and, from that point on, the Who returned to Quadrophenia far more often than Tommy, which they essentially retired after it turned into a Broadway musical. Anchored by a July 8, 2013 performance, 2014's Quadrophenia: Live in London pays tribute to the enduring legacy of Pete Townshend's rock opera. The concert is available in a variety of iterations, the simplest containing nothing more than the 2013 show -- this is available as a double-CD set, a Blu-ray, and a DVD, plus a digital download -- the most lavish being a five-disc box that contains the concert in the CD, Blu-ray, and DVD formats, along with the first-ever 5.1 mix of the original 1973 album, a feature many fans wish was included in the 2011 deluxe box set reissue of the album (there, only eight songs were mixed into Surround). If there ever were a record that cried out to be remixed in 5.1 Surround Sound, it's Quadrophenia -- it's enveloping enough as stereo, but the synths and sound effects beg for an immersive experience -- so this mix (which is also available separately as a Blu-ray Pure Audio single disc) is a worthwhile enticement on its own terms, but the 2013 show is strong on its own terms, too. Working with their longtime touring band of drummer Scott Devours, bassist Pino Paladino, and rhythm guitarist Simon Townshend, Pete Townshend and Roger Daltrey are tight and assured, substituting a weathered gravitas for the original's roiling teenage angst. Neither singer can hit the high notes he did in the '70s but neither tries, and their deeper voices add a sense of melancholy that contrasts well with the vigorous muscle of the band. An encore of greatest hits (plus \"Tea \u0026amp; Theatre,\" from 2006's Endless Wire) is a nice touch but the focus is where it should be: on Quadrophenia, which upon its 40th anniversary sounds like Pete Townshend's masterpiece, whether it's heard in its original LP version or on this very good live set. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: CD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 6\/10\/2014\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Who","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44563859308777,"sku":"CIKP1H-HMME-00","price":156.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/files\/The-Who-QUADROPHENIDLX5DSC_n8eqN.jpg?v=1759449762"},{"product_id":"the-who-the-who-sell-out-2lp-deluxe-vinyl-reissue-edition","title":"The Who Sell Out 2LP Deluxe Vinyl Reissue Edition!","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Who Sell Out 2LP Deluxe Vinyl Reissue Edition! is a Records \u0026amp; LPs from The Who\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Rock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 4\/23\/2021\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Who","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44581303615721,"sku":"RZ31G0-FAJ5-00","price":48.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/files\/The-Who-The-Who-Sell-Out-2LP-Deluxe-Vinyl-Reissue-Edition_w7qQf.jpg?v=1740584706"},{"product_id":"the-who-quadrophenia-the-directors-cut-2-lps","title":"The Who Quadrophenia: The Director's Cut (2 Lp's)","description":"\u003cp\u003eOriginally released on Polydor (6235).

Snappily titled The Who Hits 50!, by virtue of spanning two full CDs the set does cast a wider net than either Greatest Hits or 2004's Then \u0026amp; Now, beginning with the stiff R\u0026amp;B of the High Numbers' \"Zoot Suit\" and concluding with the brand-new \"Be Lucky,\" a delirious revival of Pete Townshend's purple, overwritten '80s midlife crisis. In between those two songs come 40 tracks, including some genuine surprises -- the bonkers mod anthem \"Dogs\" and its Beach Boys-aping flip \"Call Me Lightning,\" the band's cover of the Stones' \"The Last Time,\" the first appearance of \"Relay\" in a comp in ages, John Entwistle's paranoid \"Trick of the Light\" -- but for the most part, this serves up the same songs that have popped up again and again on Who compilations over the years.

It also has the distinction of being the best. Part of the reason why it is so successful is that it has an actual purpose. Meaty was designed as a collection of the group's singles, many of which never appeared on albums. The Who recorded their share of great albums during the '60s, but condensing their highlights to just the singles is an electrifying experience. \"The Kids Are Alright\" follows \"I Can't Explain,\" \"I Can See for Miles\" bleeds into \"Pictures of Lily\" and \"My Generation,\" \"Magic Bus\" gives way to \"Substitute\" and \"I'm a Boy\" -- it's an extraordinary lineup, and each song builds on its predecessor's power. Since it was released prior to Who's Next, it contains none of the group's album rock hits, but that's for the best -- their '60s singles have a kinetic, frenzied power that the louder, harder AOR cuts simply couldn't touch. Also, there is such a distinct change in sound with Who's Next that the two eras don't quite sound right on one greatest-hits collection, as My Generation and Who's Better, Who's Best proved. By concentrating on the early years -- when the Who were fresh and Pete Townshend was developing his own songwriting identity -- Meaty Beaty Big and Bouncy is musically unified and incredibly powerful. This is what the Who sounded like when they were a great band. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 10\/27\/2017\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Who","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44581716885737,"sku":"80XURA-6Z42-00","price":31.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/files\/the-who-meaty-beaty-big-and-bouncy-remastered-180-gram-vinyl_zNhtd.jpg?v=1743369038"},{"product_id":"the-who-my-generation-remastered","title":"My Generation (Remastered)","description":"A remastered and greatly expanded version of THE WHO SINGS MY GENERATION was released in 2002 as MY GENERATION: DELUXE EDITION.\r\n                   \r\nThe Who: Roger Daltrey (vocals); Pete Townshend (vocals, guitar); John Entwistle (bass, background vocals); Keith Moon (drums).\r\nOriginally released on Decca (74664) in April 1966.\r\nIncludes original release liner notes.\r\nThis 2-CD deluxe edition of MY GENERATION includes previously unreleased bonus tracks plus alternate and full-length versions of the original recordings.\r\nThe Who: Roger Daltrey (vocals); Pete Townshend (guitar, background vocals); John Entwistle (bass, background vocals); Keith Moon (drums, percussion).\r\nAdditional personnel: Jimmy Page (guitar); Perry Ford, Nicky Hopkins (piano); The Ivy League (background vocals).\r\nRecorded at IBC Studios and Pye Studios, London, England.\r\nOriginally released on Decca (4664).\r\nIncludes liner notes by Mike Shaw, Shel Talmy and Andy Neill.\r\nThis is a Super Audio CD playable only on Super Audio CD players.\r\nThe Who: Roger Daltrey (vocals); Pete Townshend (guitar, background vocals); John Entwistle (bass, background vocals); Keith Moon (drums, percussion).\r\nAdditional personnel: Jimmy Page (guitar); Perry Ford, Nicky Hopkins (piano); The Ivy League (background vocals).\r\nRecorded at IBC Studios and Pye Studios, London, England. Originally released on Decca (4664).

That hate--or, more accurately, angst--jumps out of the grooves on the album. Although the line between righteous anger and self-centered bitchiness occasionally wears thin, there is no denying that the Who were truly revolutionary. The arresting teenage anthem \"My Generation,\" the shaky solidarity of \"The Kids Are Alright,\" the dizzy confusion of \"Instant Party (Circles)\"--never had pop music expressed such raw emotions in such an uncompromising manner.\r\nAt the same time, Townshend, despite his bluster, could not escape the fact that underneath his rage lay a melodist worthy of the Brill Building. On tracks such as the crystalline, harmony-laden \"Much Too Much,\" he proved that he didn't need power to create a powerful pop song. In other words, you don't have to be a Mod to enjoy this album.

Includes liner notes by Pete Townshend, John Atkins, and Chris Charlesworth.\r\nThough Pete Townshend was originally unhappy with WHO'S NEXT, it was quickly welcomed by critics and fans, becoming one of the most celebrated titles in their enduring catalog. His frustrations boiled down to the album being a compromised version of a larger work he'd envisioned, LIFEHOUSE, which proved too unwieldy to be realized. Expanded to a two-disc set with essays by both Townshend and John Atkins, the original nine-song album is expanded with six additional studio tracks.\r\nThese include earlier versions of the album's songs and a cover of Holland-Dozier-Holland's \"Baby Don't You Do It.\" Recorded in New York during the spring of 1971 in the midst of a fraying relationship with producer Kit Lambert, the early cuts clearly don't have the sonic breadth and wallop of what the Who achieved back in England later in the year, but are fascinating nonetheless.

Includes liner notes by Pete Townshend, John Atkins, and Chris Charlesworth.\nThough Pete Townshend was originally unhappy with WHO'S NEXT, it was quickly welcomed by critics and fans, becoming one of the most celebrated titles in their enduring catalog. His frustrations boiled down to the album being a compromised version of a larger work he'd envisioned, LIFEHOUSE, which proved too unwieldy to be realized. Expanded to a two-disc set with essays by both Townshend and John Atkins, the original nine-song album is expanded with six additional studio tracks.\nThese include earlier versions of the album's songs and a cover of Holland-Dozier-Holland's \"Baby Don't You Do It.\" Recorded in New York during the spring of 1971 in the midst of a fraying relationship with producer Kit Lambert, the early cuts clearly don't have the sonic breadth and wallop of what the Who achieved back in England later in the year, but are fascinating nonetheless. The second disc was recorded live before an invited audience, and was originally part of the album's grand plan.

Recorded in 1982, IT'S HARD was the Who's final studio album and it is arguably the least rock-oriented album that The Who made. At the time this album was recorded, Pete Townshend was experimenting with writing in a variety of pop styles and both of the singles from IT'S HARD, \"Athena\" and \"It's Hard\" showcase an adventurous, near-theatrical approach that is actually well-suited to Roger Daltrey's somewhat dramatic singing.\r\nOn other songs, like the ominous \"Eminence Front\" Townshend sticks to familiar Who territory. However, it is bassist John Entwistle who provides such Who-like rockers as \"It's Your Turn.\" Now remastered and featuring four live bonus cuts, IT'S HARD is ready to rediscovered by Who fans who didn't give this album a fair chance back in 1982.\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: CD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 6\/3\/1997\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Who","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44584632844521,"sku":"78LTC1-DPI4-00","price":20.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/files\/the-who-its-hard-4-live-tracks-remastered_DTLpY.jpg?v=1741980710"},{"product_id":"the-who-odds-sods-deluxe-red-yellow-2-lp","title":"Odds \u0026 Sods [Deluxe] [Red + Yellow 2 LP]","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Who | Odds \u0026amp; Sods [2 LP] [1 Red \/ 1 Yellow] | RSD DROP\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Rock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 08\/29\/2020\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Who","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44585319792873,"sku":"BEGVA7-WM2R-00","price":48.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/files\/the-who-odds-sods-deluxe-red-yellow-2-lp_y7J8J.jpg?v=1755508617"},{"product_id":"the-who-the-who-sell-out-10-extra-tracks-180-gram-virgin-vinyl-import","title":"The Who Sell Out (+10 Extra Tracks, 180 Gram Virgin Vinyl) [Import]","description":"Tracklisting \u0026amp; More Information\r\n\r\n1.

Originally released on Decca (79175) in May 1970.Digitally remastered by Jon Astley.In addition to making some of the finest studio albums in rock history (ranging in approach from proto-pop-punk to the first rock operas), the Who, live, epitomized the brash, electrifying energy that put a new face on the music in the 1960s. The original LIVE AT LEEDS album, released in 1970, looked straight into the eye of this hurricane on a single disc featuring six tracks. A 1995 reissue doubled the number of songs. The DELUXE EDITION, however, released in 2001, is the first document to feature the Leeds concert in its entirety. Spread out over two discs, this most recent update is definitive, and includes a 28-page booklet, sections of band-audience banter, and--most importantly--a full performance of TOMMY. The sound, enhanced here in a new mix supervised by guitarist\/songwriter Pete Townshend, is crystalline, without losing any of the group's swirling chaos and bone-crushing sonic impact. Though the Who later began to abridge TOMMY live, disc two features the entire opera, while the first disc houses \"Substitute,\" \"My Generation,\" and a blood-pumping cover of \"Summertime Blues,\" among other singles. For any Who fan, this edition is essential.\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 10\/27\/2017\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Who","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44587673092329,"sku":"UQSQIT-VXA7-00","price":31.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/files\/The-Who-Live-At-Leeds-Remastered-180-Gram-Vinyl_6mBTs.jpg?v=1758900118"},{"product_id":"the-who-live-in-hyde-park-limited-edition-3-lp-red-white-blue","title":"Live In Hyde Park [Limited Edition 3 LP] [Red\/White\/Blue]","description":"\u003cp\u003eRelease Date: 07\/03\/2020 | Brand New Sealed | The Who | Live In Hyde Park [Limited Edition 3 LP] [Red\/White\/Blue] | Vinyl\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRecorded in 2015, as The Who celebrated their 50th anniversary, this stunning show from London's famous Hyde Park is a triumphant return to their home city.

Tracks 1-10 originally released in the U.K. in 1966 as A QUICK ONE on Reaction (593002). Tracks 11-14 originally released in the U.K. in 1966 on the EP READY STEADY WHO! on Reaction (592001). Includes liner notes by Chris Stamp, the original release liner notes from READY STEADY WHO! by Francis Hitching and the original release liner notes from the U.S. album HAPPY JACK by Nick Jones.\r\nThis 1995 reissue of A QUICK ONE includes the original British album along with four songs from the EP READY STEADY WHO!, three B-sides (\"Doctor, Doctor,\" \"I've Been Away\" and \"In The City\") and three previously unreleased tracks. A QUICK ONE was first released in the U.S. in 1967 under the title HAPPY JACK, with the single \"Happy Jack\" replacing the British album track \"Heatwave.\"\r\nA pivotal album in the early career of The Who, A QUICK ONE is the bridge between the band's original incarnation as a hard rockin' mod pop group and its subsequent, more ambitious, experimental phase. The album is also notable because it's centerpiece, \"A Quick One, While He's Away,\" represents Pete Townshend's first attempt at \"rock opera,\" a form which he and The Who would later perfect on TOMMY and QUADROPHENIA. The ten-minute track contains all the elements of the trademark Who style--complex arrangements and vocal harmonies, alternating heavy electric and light acoustic passages and a preoccupation with issues of morality and sexuality.\r\nAlso interesting is the fact that A QUICK ONE includes, in addition to several Townshend masterpieces, one Roger Daltrey tune and two excellent songs each from both John Entwistle and Keith Moon. The Entwistle-penned tracks (\"Whiskey Man\" and \"Boris the Spider\") are among his best and introduced fans for the first time to the virtuoso bassist's dark, twisted sense of humor. Although prior to A QUICK ONE's release The Who had several hit singles, it was this album that put the music world on notice that Townshend and crew were far more than simply a high energy rock \u0026amp; roll band.\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Rock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 03\/23\/2015\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Who","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44587953127657,"sku":"BMYNPX-0RAF-00","price":31.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/files\/the-who-a-quick-one-180-gram-vinyl-remastered_JRI6o.jpg?v=1759245677"},{"product_id":"the-who-tommy-at-tanglewood-1970-import","title":"Tommy at Tanglewood 1970 [Import]","description":"The final night of their 1970 tour takes The Who to\r\nTanglewood, as part of an extraordinary series of concerts at\r\nthis renowned classical music venue.

That hate--or, more accurately, angst--jumps out of the grooves on the album. Although the line between righteous anger and self-centered bitchiness occasionally wears thin, there is no denying that the Who were truly revolutionary. The arresting teenage anthem \"My Generation,\" the shaky solidarity of \"The Kids Are Alright,\" the dizzy confusion of \"Instant Party (Circles)\"--never had pop music expressed such raw emotions in such an uncompromising manner.\nAt the same time, Townshend, despite his bluster, could not escape the fact that underneath his rage lay a melodist worthy of the Brill Building. On tracks such as the crystalline, harmony-laden \"Much Too Much,\" he proved that he didn't need power to create a powerful pop song. In other words, you don't have to be a Mod to enjoy this album. But it helps.\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Rock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: CD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 10\/10\/1988\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Who","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44589237141737,"sku":"ROYZ0L-VTH1-00","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/files\/the-who-the-who-sings-my-gen_G2bwD.jpg?v=1742346130"},{"product_id":"the-who-philadelphia-2-cd","title":"Philadelphia (2 CD)","description":"\u003cp\u003ePhiladelphia (2 CD) is a Music CDs from The Who\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: CD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 01\/24\/2020\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Who","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44589661782249,"sku":"6CX0YA-VY4S-00","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/files\/the-who-philadelphia-2-cd_tQAyE.jpg?v=1759155281"},{"product_id":"the-who-then-and-now","title":"THEN AND NOW","description":"The Who includes: Pete Townshend (vocals, guitar); John Entwistle (vocals, bass); Roger Daltrey (vocals); John \"Rabbit\" Bundrick (piano, Hammond B-3 organ); Greg Lake, Pino Palladino (bass); Keith Moon, Kenney Jones, Zak Starkey (drums).\nProducers: The Who, Shel Talmy, Kit Lambert, Glyn Johns, Bill Szymczyk.\nCompilation producer: Andy McKaie.\nRecorded between 1964 \u0026amp; 2004. Includes liner notes by Matt Kent.\nThis collection commemorates the 40th anniversary of the Who, and covers the entire span of their career. Perhaps even more significantly, though, it includes the first new Who recordings in 22 years. The youthful vibrancy of the band's mid-1960s mod period is represented by the breathless \"I Can't Explain,\" the sneering\/stuttering youth-culture anthem \"My Generation,\" and the proto-\"All the Young Dudes\" camaraderie of \"The Kids Are Alright.\" The collection moves on through the high points of their late '60s output (\"I Can See for Miles\"), '70s arena rock (\"Won't Get Fooled Again\"), and the synth-adorned, post-Keith Moon \"You Better You Bet.\"\nAfter the Who's final studio album in 1982, there were sporadic reunions over the years, but no new songs. Following the death of bassist John Entwistle in 2002, there was a flurry of studio activity, as borne out by the two new tracks that close out the disc. While both \"Real Good Looking Boy,\" a meditation on the vanity of youth, and \"Old Red Wine,\" about the value of maturity, find Pete Townshend writing from the wisdom of age (59 in 2004), the classic Who sound is in full effect. With Roger Daltrey's wailing, rock-god vocals and Townshend's churning guitar powerfully rumbling along, these new tracks show a vital rock band far from ready to put a cap on its career.\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Oldies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: CD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 03\/30\/2004\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Who","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44590159397097,"sku":"SMQ9CY-VQ1O-00","price":17.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/files\/the-who-then-and-now_RWfoI.jpg?v=1758801175"},{"product_id":"the-who-tommy-super-deluxe","title":"TOMMY - SUPER DELUXE","description":"The Who: Pete Townshend (vocals, guitar, keyboards); John Entwistle (vocals, French horn, bass); Keith Moon (vocals, drums); Roger Daltrey (vocals).\nProducers: Kit Lambert, Chris Stamp.\nReissue producer: Jon Astley.\nRecorded at IBC Studio, London, England.\nOriginally released as a 2 LP set on Decca (7205).\nThe Who: Pete Townshend (vocals, guitar, keyboards); John Entwistle (vocals, bass, horns); Keith Moon (vocals, drums); Roger Daltrey (vocals).\nOriginally released on Decca (7205) in May 1969.\nOriginally released as a 2 LP set.\nThis is a hybrid Super Audio CD playable on both regular and Super Audio CD players.\nThe Who: Pete Townshend (vocals, guitar, keyboards); John Entwistle (vocals, trumpet, French horn, Flugelhorn, bass); Keith Moon (vocals, drums, tympani, gong, tambourine); Roger Daltrey (vocals).\nRecorded at IBC Studio, London, England.\nOriginally released as a 2-LP set on Decca (7205).\nIncludes liner notes by Matt Kent.\nAudio Remasterer: Jon Astley.\nLiner Note Author: Richard Barnes.\nRecording information: IBC Studios, London.\nPhotographers: Baron Wolman; Barrie Wentzell; Barrie Meller; Jack Robinson; Don Grant; Chris Morphet; Peter Cook ; Hugh Gilbert; Pete Townshend; Martin Cook.\nThe definitive rock opera, TOMMY liberated the Who from a \"singles band\" stigma, marking them as a substantial artistic force. Composer Pete Townshend had flirted with the conceptual format on two previous releases, but here his vision is spread over two ambitious records that play to the Who's main strengths. Anthems such as the raucous \"Pinball Wizard\" and the surprisingly serene \"I'm Free\" emphasize the kinetic power of the band, while Townshend's cast of characters (the perverted Uncle Ernie, the inscrutable Tommy) reveals a wild and unconventional imagination. Townshend even incorporates Sonny Boy Williamson's \"Eyesight to the Blind\" as part of his fable about the \"deaf, dumb, and blind kid,\" making a successful reference to the past in what is an undeniably groundbreaking and forward-looking achievement.\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: CD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 11\/11\/2013\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Who","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44590610776297,"sku":"UK7QM6-2998-00","price":176.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/files\/the-who-tommy-super-deluxe_y9M7P.jpg?v=1759113433"},{"product_id":"the-who-endless-wire-2lp","title":"ENDLESS WIRE (2LP)","description":"Neither time, nor the deaths of founding members, nor claims that they'll never play together again seem to stop the legendary Who. On 2006's ENDLESS WIRE, the band's first official studio full-length since 1982's IT'S HARD, Pete Townshend is still folding progressive structures and lofty themes into bombastic, arena-ready rock, while Roger Daltrey belts it out as though it were still 1976. The Who's 2000s-era touring band, including drummer Zak Starkey, bassist Pino Palladino, and keyboardist John Bundrick, lend enough muscle to the musical attack here to recall the Who's glory days, and a host of studio musicians help flesh out and vary the sound.\nSurprisingly, all of these elements--Townshend's songwriting, Daltrey's impassioned singing, and the band's tight performances--coalesce to create a remarkably consistent whole. At its best, ENDLESSWIRE resembles the band circa WHO'S NEXT (the synth intro to opener \"Fragments,\" which directly references \"Baba O'Reily,\" is a clear tip-off). In addition to nine new songs, the set also includes the EP WIRE \u0026amp; GLASS (a mini rock-opera from Townsend), which has the band rocking with more vitality than they have in decades. A bonus DVD shows the Who performing live in Lyon, France in 2006, and churning out immortal classics like \"I Can't Explain\" and \"Won't Get Fooled Again.\"\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 03\/23\/2015\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Who","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44597850439913,"sku":"3UCVVT-IWY0-00","price":46.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/files\/the-who-endless-wire-2lp_2wTZE.jpg?v=1759236895"},{"product_id":"the-who-live-at-leeds-half-speed-master","title":"Live At Leeds (Half-Speed Master)","description":"\u003cp\u003eLive At Leeds (Half-Speed Master) is a Records \u0026amp; LPs from The Who\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 12\/02\/2016\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Who","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44598818898153,"sku":"FV6423-APPX-00","price":54.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/files\/the-who-live-at-leeds-half-speed-master_xualN.jpg?v=1758900264"},{"product_id":"the-who-polydr-sgl-1975-2015","title":"POLYDR SGL 1975-2015","description":"\u003cp\u003ePOLYDR SGL 1975-2015 is a Records \u0026amp; LPs from The Who\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 06\/17\/2016\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Who","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44599029858537,"sku":"BVBXL4-81IO-00","price":181.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/files\/the-who-polydr-sgl-1975-2015_ckQxs.jpg?v=1759356243"},{"product_id":"the-who-tommy-live-rah-3lp","title":"TOMMY LIVE RAH (3LP)","description":"\u003cp\u003eBrand New Sealed | The Who | Tommy Live Rah (3LP) | Vinyl | Release Date: 10\/13\/2017\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Rock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 10\/13\/2017\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Who","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44599763828969,"sku":"09TWSN-Z0PS-00","price":46.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/files\/the-who-tommy-live-rah-3lp_7qDQx.jpg?v=1748751124"},{"product_id":"the-who-live-at-the-isle-of","title":"Live At The Isle Of","description":"\u003cp\u003eBrand New Sealed | The Who | Live At The Isle Of | Vinyl | Release Date: 10\/26\/2018\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Rock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 10\/26\/2018\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Who","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44599803347177,"sku":"38P9RF-FIO4-00","price":42.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/files\/the-who-live-at-the-isle-of_gv2wb.jpg?v=1759077907"},{"product_id":"the-who-live-at-the-isle3lp","title":"LIVE AT THE ISLE(3LP","description":"The music on LIVE AT THE ISLE OF WIGHT FESTIVAL 1970 was originally recorded for the soundtrack to a concert film of the same name.\nThe Who: Roger Daltrey (vocals, harmonica); Pete Townshend (guitar, background vocals); John Entwistle (bass, background vocals); Keith Moon (drums, background vocals).\nRecorded live at The Isle Of Wight Festival, England on August 29, 1970. Includes liner notes by Michael Heatley and Ted Tuksa.\nThis 2-CD set documents the Who's performance at a music festival that has achieved an almost mythological status over the years. Whether the event deserves its reputation as Woodstock 2 or not, this staggeringly powerful set captures one of the most important rock groups of the '60s and '70s at the height of its powers. A monstrous, roaring, behemoth of a band, the Who wielded electricity like a lumberjack wields an axe, creating a mountain of distorted wailing and thrashing as thrilling as it was overwhelming. One listen to these discs will quickly confirm that Pete Townshend and company were clearly the founding fathers of grunge-rock.\nEarly tunes like \"Substitute,\" \"I Can't Explain\" and \"My Generation\" all receive muscular reworkings here. The bulk of the set is taken up by a performance of the rock opera TOMMY, which, in this raw, biting incarnation, stands head and shoulders above the studio version. There are also versions of two songs, \"Water\" and \"Naked Eye,\" from Townshend's never-finished LIFEHOUSE project.\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 10\/30\/2015\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Who","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44600090427625,"sku":"CRWIK7-BDKG-00","price":46.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/files\/the-who-live-at-the-isle3lp_2Zi5Z.jpg?v=1759081196"},{"product_id":"the-who-live-at-the-isle-of-1","title":"Live At The Isle Of","description":"\u003cp\u003eLive At The Isle Of is a Records \u0026amp; LPs from The Who\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 10\/26\/2018\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Who","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44600163467497,"sku":"092GR3-XJZV-00","price":42.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/files\/the-who-live-at-the-isle-of_vggcx.jpg?v=1759078801"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/collections\/FullSizeRender_0a67e91e-2dc7-48ea-84b5-bc5aeb49e790.jpg?v=1730266338","url":"https:\/\/www.vibinvinyl.com\/collections\/the-who.oembed?page=3","provider":"Vibin' Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
