• Audience 8.9 - Very lively, great atmosphere! Sound is very very good, and the mix that gets to your ears includes everything happening on stage but what I really love is the sound of the drums. Fills the arena yet is pretty tight, with that slight bouncing off the walls effect that gives an almost 360 degree experience.

  • Audience 8.7 - This tape barely contains the driving, relentless energy of the Who. It does, in fact, manage to remain somewhat stable even if Roger gets a little lost in the mix. Sheer power, loudness that probably caused some major hearing loss for a few folks.
  • Soundboard 7.8 - The main problem here is the funky mix. It may be a monitor mix, because where the instruments are placed and how they are mixed overall not only changes occasionally, but seem to indicate this is probably just that, a monitor mix.
  • Audience 8.0 - Loud, very up front and loud but it’s just great. Not technically great, if you want to cross hairs, but a very solid tape and one worthy of consumption.
  • Audience 7.1 - Somewhat distant and an underlying cacophony but there is a reason why Who collectors go for the 1972 European tour tapes – quality be damned – because the band was really peaking at this time. So, good show, average recording.
  • Audience 8.7 - Very good! Much wider stereo sound field with some hall dynamics present, and just a little less definition with Pete in the mix but it's actually got a great live feel to it. Highly enjoyable.
  • Audience 7.5 - Overloaded tape, but surprisingly isn’t distorting, it just can’t contain the power of The Who in 1970. That being said, I bet even the casual fan will find something redeeming here – a loud concert whereby at least you can hear everything – loudly! I kind of got into it, by the time Young Man Blues kicks in, you are in this for the duration.
  • Audience 8.1 - A shaky start to this recording, but it smooths out and becomes listenable with clear vocals that rise up and out of the depths. The interesting thing about this show is that Pete is nailing all his solos with precision, a rare thing to be honest. The band is in fine form, they even play “However Much I Booze” which was only done a handful of times on this tour.

    Original price was: $23.49.Current price is: $22.29.
    Audience 9.0 - Ok, so here’s the deal with this one – skip past the first song because it’s toast, the levels were not set and the distortion is off the charts. After that the taper readjusts levels and off we go to a really nice, atmospheric and clear recording of a powerful show.
  • Audience 7.8  (from vinyl source) - Pretty strong if a little bass heavy (good!). Vocals up front, some vinyl noise present – adds a bit of nostalgia to the bootleg!
  • Audience 7.3 - A rough document that reminds me a little bit of the Boston 1969 tape. There’s a lot of inherent noise within the bandwidth of the poor old analog tape trying to capture the sheer power of the Who in 1969, but you know it does manage to get enough that you can adjust and start to get into it. It’s raucous, yup, but so was the band!
  • Audience 7.3 - A little crunchy, and some sizzle on the cymbals – guitar behind the bass, and not great separation of instruments, but with all that happening, the tape isn’t in the dismal range sonically.
  • Audience 7.3-7.7 - At some points in the show, the tape gets better and you get a great sense of the power of this band.
  • Audience 8.6-8.8 - A tape that begins inauspiciously as a pretty good but distant tape. Slowly, it begins to blossom into something much more intriguing. Taper smuggled very good equipment into the venue, that much is obvious, and he worked at getting into a better position during the show until what you end up with is a very tasty audience recording. Kudos to the taper!

  • Audience 8.3 - This is as good as I have ever heard this show sound. Possibly from a very low generation tape source or master because there is no hiss, and it is pretty clear although not super dynamic. The band was in top form during this European series of concerts.
  • Audience 7.1 - A kind of muddy mix with Roger coming through OK, and the lead guitar is fine. Not the worst 1971 show, which we take whatever we can get as Who fans.
  • Soundboard 9.3 - Everyone should already know about this one. A MUST HAVE without question.
  • Audience 8.9 - A fine recording that seems to originate from John’s side of the stage because guitar, while there, is kind of behind the action which allows you to pay attention to the bass work, and really will surprise you just how much of a second guitar that bass was at times. I also like the slight change of "Can’t Explain" they do here – this is a great show. This is also a very good recording so get it!
  • Audience 8.8 - It’s hard to express exactly what makes a particular recording or gig special, mainly because it is all very subjective. But, I have been collecting music since 1982, so I feel I have earned some credibility ha ha! So let me tell you why this one is special. Placed right in front of the main P.A. speakers, this sound is brutal. Sure, the first 45 seconds are a mess, but it gets better, and man, is this a rocking good time!  The sound is ferocious, threatening at any moment to destroy the tape completely, but it doesn’t. It’s hot, it’s loud, but it’s also very real, as if happening at the very moment you are hearing it. The Who in 1970, in Detroit (Rock City!), playing Tommy (and other great tracks) in front of an appreciative audience (without incident!).  Everyone sounds great here, and you have a front row seat.

  • Audience 8.4 - Not bad but has a lack of meat to it, and though Pete's guitar sounds more evil here, it's the lack of punch in the bass and drums that detract overall.
  • Audience 7.1 - Stuck in the narrow mid band, while Roger soars above the din. Not a lot of clarity with the rhythm section, but thankfully enough I can get 80% of the guitar notes. Does not suck, but does not blow you away either. Simply average.
  • Audience 8.2 - This recording, while not astounding, has an unusual feature for an amateur recording early 70’s – and that is good highs and good lows! There’s stuff to work with here. Very enjoyable!
  • Audience 8.5 - If you call yourself a fan of The Who and you do not have this yet, just put down the sandwich and get this one right now. Holy guacamole Batman this friggin’ RULES! Is it perfect? Nope. Is it crystal clear? No, but it is RIGHT smack dab in your face with LOADS of electric atmosphere. Even the excited shrieks of the girls will give your spine a little tingle. This is what collecting live music is all about. Soundboard purists will be missing something amazing if they never give this rough, not so perfect audience recording a listen. This is The Who raw, live, intense, and exciting and it simply will fry your brain!
  • Audience 7.2 - Distant, but another recording that would benefit from more volume. For 1967 era Who, I like this tape, I mean, it is not like a Hermans Hermits gig, this would have been ear-bleeding volume!
  • CD 1-2 - Audience 8.7 - Most Who collectors may already be familiar with this set, sounds like a good tape source is used and it is complete (hence the title) . But wait a minute – we have the second show now too – how is it? CD 3-4 - Audience 8.2 - Somebody tried heroically to remaster this and I have to say, knowing what it used to sound like, they did a great job. Still some noise artifacts present, but man they did bring out a LOT from this unappreciated recording. Kudos to the sound guy! Worth having this set now.
  • Audience 8.6 - Easily the best of the European 72 Tour. Killer!

    THE WHO – Colmar 1976 (2CD)

    Original price was: $23.49.Current price is: $22.00.
    Audience 7.9 - The only thing that stops this recording from shining bright is the low end. It’s a thunderous low end, a roaring train, but it’s probably what the gig sounded like too. So, it’s not that it’s ruined, but that you should roll off the bass a little if you have an EQ, and then you’ll have something much better to listen to. A good recording – with loads of bass!
  • Audience 8.8 - This is a significant recording mainly from a historical sense, but for all the wrong reasons too. Yes it is the infamous gig where 11 people died outside the venue waiting to get in. The band were not informed until after the show, so they play their set oblivious, and it is a fine set. It’s eerie now to hear this knowing what transpired earlier, thankfully it is actually a very fine recording. This is one of those things I have to encourage everyone to check out for all the RIGHT reasons though…but yeah there’s that.
  • Soundboard 9.6 - This rating reflects what I feel about this recording in the way that the guitar and bass come across in the mix. So, what you get is a well rounded, brassy bass sound that is articulate and not lost in the low end wastelands or overshadowed by Pete. It sounds like two guitar players playing in perfect harmony, and a lot of Who recordings you do not get that effect so much as just a wall of power and volume. This one is just so good in that sense and deserves a special acknowledgement.
  • Audience 7.1 - Another upper mid band to high range tape in a one dimensional spectrum, guitars kind of low, Roger is up front followed by The Ox, and Keith brings up the back. Not horrible, not great. If you turn up the volume and add some mid boost it would help a lot, because the instruments are all there, as is Roger. It is not a goopy mess.
  • Soundboard 8.8 - A little wobbly at the start but clears up quickly.
  • Audience 7.2 - I love this, for many reasons beyond sound rating. This is one of those shows to me that rises above all other shows of better quality. It is not bad, it is actually a good, fun listen with nothing that annoys or distracts. It is not overly dynamic with crystal highs and deep lows, but the space it occupies does not offend. A good one, while he’s away!
  • Audience 8.8 - This is one for the history books! Includes the first two songs from the infamous halted show where Keith is carried out of the venue. The make up show, as you can imagine, is full of vim and vigor. Good sound, great show…get it!
  • Audience 7.5 - Kind of a raucous tape, I mean it is The Who after all, but the music is all present if not in the same mid band range (highs aren’t bad). I have to recommend it, being a 1971 recording of which I am fond, it holds up.
  • This collection has been remastered and despite that, there are still one or two tracks that show the ravages of time. One can only assume some of it was not saved, as was the BBC’s policy of not giving a shit, therefore it was up to fans to record from a radio broadcast themselves. Most of this does sound very good, a worthy effort for sure and some of this I’d never heard before. The Who - BBC Sessions 1965-1971 {Remastered & Complete} Disc 1 01. Good Lovin' 02. 'Pete interview #1' 03. Anyway, Anyhow, Anywhere 04. Leaving Here 05. Just You and Me, Darling 06. 'Pete interview #2' Recorded: Aeolian Hall studio 2, Bond Street, London UK; Monday 24 + Tuesday 25 May 1965 Broadcast: BBC Radio 'Saturday Club': Saturday 29 May 1965 Producers: Jimmy Grant/Brian Willey Sources: transcription disc Notes: The Who's second session for the BBC actually appears to have been a double-date. On the 24th, a three-hour session produced: 'Good Lovin'', 'Anyway Anyhow Anywhere', 'I Don't Mind' and 'Daddy Rolling Stone'. The next afternoon they performed: 'Leaving Here', 'Please Please Please' and 'Just You and Me, Darling'. The sessions tapes were wiped and the selections here are all that has survived on copies of "Top of the Tops" transcription discs #31 & #34. The song selection here is dominated by soul covers picked by Roger, who was still the undisputed leader of the group. Yet, it was Pete who got to do the interviews and talk about the group's beginnings and prospects. 07. The Good's Gone 08. 'Pete interview' 09. My Generation 10. La La La Lies 11. Baby Don't You Do It Recorded: Aeolian Hall studio 1, Bond Street, London UK; Monday 22 November 1965 Broadcast: BBC Radio 'Saturday Club': Saturday 27 November 1965 Producers: Jimmy Grant/Brian Willey Sources: 01-04 transcription disc; 05 off-air recording Note: The third session was again recorded live in studio and produced completed takes of: 'It's Not True', 'The Good's Gone', 'La La La Lies', 'My Generation' and 'Baby Don't You Do It'. The sessions tapes were wiped and the selections here are all that has survived on copies of "Top of the Tops" transcription disc #57 and an off-air recording made by a fan. By now, Pete's role as the main provider of song material has been firmly established. 12. Man With Money 13. 'Pete interview' 14. Substitute 15. Dancing In the Street 16. You Rang Recorded: Aeolian Hall studio 1, Bond Street, London UK; Tuesday 15 March 1966 Broadcast: BBC Radio 'Saturday Club': Saturday 19 March 1966 Producers: Jimmy Grant/Brian Willey Sources: 01-04 transcription disc; 05 off-air recording Note: For this fourth session, the band recorded: 'Barbara Ann', 'Substitute', 'You Rang', 'Man with Money' and 'Dancing In The Street'. The sessions tapes were once again wiped and the selections here are all that has survived on copies of "Top of the Tops" transcription disc #73 and an off-air recording made by a fan. 17. 'Intro' 18. Disguises 19. 'Pete interview' 20. I'm A Boy 21. So Sad About Us Recorded: Playhouse Theatre, Northumberland Avenue, London UK; Tuesday 13 September 1966 Broadcast: BBC Radio 'Saturday Club': Saturday 17 September 1966 Producers: Jimmy Grant/Brian Willey Source: transcription disc Note: Fifth session, which produced: 'I'm A Boy', 'Disguises', 'Heatwave', 'So Sad About Us' and a cover of the Lovin' Spoonful's 'On The Road Again'. The sessions tapes were wiped and the selections here are all that has survived on copies of "Top of the Tops" transcription disc #99. In an attempt to control the mixing balance, John suddenly turned his bass up in the middle of 'Disguises'. The balance engineer on the session did not bother correcting this and as a result the sound turns into a muddy mess from that point on (with the mixdown compressor working on overload). 'So Sad About Us' was left off the official 'BBC Sessions' release from 2000 for unknown reasons. 22. Run Run Run 23. Boris The Spider 24. 'Pete interview' 25. Happy Jack 26. See My Way Recorded: Playhouse Theatre, Northumberland Avenue, London UK; Tuesday 17 January 1967 Broadcast: BBC Radio 'Saturday Club': Saturday 21 January 1967 Producers: Jimmy Grant/Bill Bebb Source: transcription disc Note: For this sixth session, the band recorded: 'Happy Jack', 'Run, Run, Run', 'Boris The Spider', 'See My Way', 'Don't Look Away' and 'So Sad About Us'. The sessions tapes were once again wiped and the selections here are all that has survived on copies of "Top of the Tops" transcription disc #117. Disc 2 01. 'Intro' 02. I Can See For Miles 03. Pictures Of Lily 04. Summertime Blues 05. I Can't Reach You 06. Our Love Was 07. A Quick One (While He's Away) 08. Relax 09. My Generation - Boris The Spider - Happy Jack - My Generation 10. Pictures of Lily [Alternate Mono Mix] Recording & Broadcast Production: De Lane Lea Studio, Kingsway, London UK; Tuesday 10 October 1967 Broadcast: BBC Radio 'Top Gear'; Sunday 15 October 1967 Producers: Bernie Andrews/Bev Philips Sources: 01-02,07,09-10: tape 03-06: transcription disc w/ patches from tape sources 08: off-air recording Note: This seventh session marked the first time the BBC allowed any musical act to record for them outside their own studios. Recorded on this day were five jingles, 'My Way' (not broadcast) and alternate versions of 'Pictures Of Lily' & 'A Quick One While He's Away'. Also readied for the broadcast were early mixes of 'I Can See For Miles'*, 'Relax', 'Our Love Was', 'I Can't Reach You', 'Summertime Blues' & 'Someone's Coming'. These songs were already recorded on an earlier date and would eventually appear on official Who product with a slightly different mix (although it took more than 30 years for 'Summertime Blues'). This is the first Who BBC session that has at least partially survived on tape on the BBC archives, as the jingles and 'A Quick One' do not appear on copies of "Top of the Tops" transcription disc #157 & #160, yet appear in crystal clear quality on the official release. Strangely enough, the two TOTP discs seem to have been the source for the other tracks on the official CD, all of which are marred by a voiceover. The versions here are uninterrupted from start to finish (with the exception of the ending of 'Our Love Was'), for the first time ever. As a bonus, I have added a clean mono mix of 'Lily' with better fidelity than the BBC source which has not circulated before. * The 45RPM & BBC versions both contain a heavy bass dub that was imposed on the mono album master. The dubs differ, to ensure the BBC got a unique master recording. 11. 'Pete interview' 12. Pinball Wizard Broadcast: BBC TV 'Top of the Pops'; Tuesday 27 March 1969 Source: transcription disc Note: Roger/Pete(?) sing along with studio version. Part of the interview has appeared on a bonus disc that came with a limited edition of the official 2000 release. Tracks are sourced from "Top of the Tops" transcription discs #232 & #233. 13. 'David Wigg interviews Pete Townshend' Source: transcription disc Note: Sourced from "Top of the Tops" transcription disc #289 (released 20-5-1970). 14. The Seeker Recorded: IBC Studios, London UK; 19 February 1970 & BBC Television Centre, London UK, Thursday 19 March 1970 Broadcast: BBC TV 'Top of the Pops'; Thursday 19 March 1970 Source: transcription disc Note: Roger sings live over the studio version of 'The Seeker' for "Top Of The Pops", with the rest of the band miming along. John forced a re-shoot after the director did not include a shot of him in the first take. Sourced from "Top of the Tops" transcription disc #283. 15. I'm Free 16. The Seeker 17. Heaven And Hell 18. Shakin' All Over - Spoonful (Medley) 19. Substitute 20. Pinball Wizard Recorded: IBC Studios, London UK; Monday 13 April 1970 Broadcast: BBC Radio 'Dave Lee Travis'; Sunday 19 April 1970 Producer: Paul Williams Source: 01-04: transcription disc w/ patches from tape sources 05-06: tape Note: The last formal band session for the Beeb and again recorded outside an official BBC studio. 'Heaven and Hell' was later released in a slightly reworked version as a B-side to 'Summertime Blues'. Like the October 1967 session, this one is believed to have survived on tape on the BBC archives. But even so, the official album used the "Top of the Tops" transcription disc #286 as its source for Tr. 01-04, with voiceover over the intro's and outro's. The versions presented here are uninterrupted from start to finish (with the exception of 'Seeker') for the first time. 21. 'Keith Altham talks to Pete Townshend' Source: transcription disc Note: Sourced from "Top of the Tops" transcription disc #304 (released 2-9-1970). 22. I Don't Even Know Myself Recorded: Olympic Studio, Barnes, London UK; 1971 Source: tape Note: This one is a bit of a mystery. No details about it are given on the official BBC session CD. It is the same take that was released in 1971 as the B-side to 'Won't Get Fooled Again' but here we get a clean mono mix that differs in a few places from the released version. Believed to have been recorded in 1971 during the Who's Next sessions.  
  • Audience 8.8 - A very good recording that has an excellent high end clarity, low end is not as sharply defined but is definitely “big” and can be felt in your gut. A welcome addition to the Who collection for sure, especially since this was early in the tour when the band was still playing However Much I Booze.

  • Audience 6.8 to 7.0 - You get mainly Roger and Keith crashing cymbals and his kick drum, then Pete shows up in the mix. Interesting atmosphere though, because the audience must be large but you can’t hear them much on this tape, possibly mic was elevated above the crowd. The sound changes a little as it goes and gets better to my ears. Hence the kick up to 7.0.
  • Soundboard 9.4 - Superb in every way possible. You HAVE to have this if you do not have it in your collection yet. This is the new Remaster, and it SMOKES like everything else from this period.

    THE WHO – 1980 Tour (14 CD Metal Canister)

    Original price was: $95.00.Current price is: $80.00.
    An absolute beast of a canister! Loaded down with 14 discs, it's quite the experience as you follow the Who on tour in the States in 1980. For the most part, all of the recordings reside in the mid to upper 8's on the 1-10 scale, with a couple coming in at over 9.0 (Essen, for instance). I found it to be very satisfying as all of the songs I enjoy hearing them play are represented, without the overindulgence into Tommy...finally!

  • Pro Studio 9.2 - Minimalism never sounded so catastrophic! But it’s cool in a subversive kind of way.
  • Audience 8.8 - A great tape here! I heard pretty much everything happening on stage, and the mix is not bad. I was one of those who completely overlooked this band, and should have made more of an effort…but here we are now and I am digging it!

  • Audience 9.2 - Hard to imagine someone not absolutely loving this, but there are still a few people who think just because a microphone placed somewhere in the audience was used to capture the sound, it can’t be good. Play them this. Wowsers!

  • CD issue of the complete works of very underground psychedelic act out of Detroit. CD is SEALED.
  • Audience 6.7 - Really do wish this sounded better but it’s the only known live recording of this wonderful and amazing prog band. Keyboards are more prominent in the mix, followed by drums, then bass. So the important elements are here. When the band is quieter you get much more out of it, that being said, WOW just to even have this is quite special, really. I find more to enjoy from this than to be grumpy about.
