The Who - Who's Next - 50th Anniversary

Product Description

Following recent super deluxe editions and multi-format releases of classic Who albums – The Who Sell Out, My Generation, Tommy and Quadrophenia, the next album to get the anniversary treatment is Who’s Next – considered by many to be the band’s greatest album. The album was a ground-breaking musical achievement and raised the bar for other artists to follow and continues to inspire to this day.

Orignally released in August 1971, Who's Next was the bands fifth studio album. The album was developed from the aborted Lifehouse project, a multi media rock opera that was meant to follow up the bands 1969 album 'Tommy', but became to complex at the time to complete. Eight of the nine songs on the album come from the abandoned project, including the world wide hit 'Won't get Fooled Again'.

• Standard Solo LP
• Half Speed master LP
• Limited Edition Coke Bottle coloured LP
• Limited Edition 4LP version featuring the original album plus San Francisco Live 1971
• 10CD Boxset, Blu-Ray featuring Atmos & 5.1 surround mixes. The box set also contains a 100-page hardback book with Townshend's personal introduction and new sleeve notes by Who experts and compilers Andy Neil and Matt Kent. Also included is Life House - The Graphic Novel, a newly commissioned, 170-page hardback book overseen by Townshend that tells the story behind the project. Completing the set are concert posters and programmes, pin sets and a colour photo with printed aurographs.
