Classic The Who Concert Could Become A Live Album

by Roger Wink, VVN Music on February 16, 2018

in News

It appears that there is a new archive live album from The Who coming on April 20.

Speculation is that this will be a Record Store Day 2018 release; however, it is currently listed in the Amazon U.K. store which appears to be the only place where it is even being mentioned.

The Who: Live at the Fillmore East 1968 is listed as both 2-CD and 3-LP sets described as:

April 2018 – the 50th anniversary of these legendary unreleased recordings from the Fillmore East, New York City, Friday April 5 & Saturday April 6, 1968. Both nights were recorded by Who manager Kit Lambert with the intention of releasing as the Who’s fourth album after Sell Out and before Tommy. Songs from the second night have been restored and mixed by Who sound engineer Bob Pridden (who was there in 1968). Remastered for optimum sound quality, this will enhance The Who’s reputation as the best live act of the time, regarded by fans as something of a ‘holy grail’ in live shows. Features stunning extended versions of My Generation, A Quick One…, Shakin’ All Over and many other Who classics. Features three ripping versions of Eddie Cochran numbers – Summertime Blues and C’mon Everybody (the latter unavailable elsewhere), Fortune Teller played at these shows for the first time and unique live versions of Tattoo and Relax from ‘Who Sell Out’.

2-CDs

Disc 1
