Notes


Venue: Studio and Live.
Tracks 1 - 6: Studio Recordings - The Record Plant, New York.
Tracks 7 - 10: Live At Leeds, February 14, 1970
Recording: Sound-board
Comments: Early Who versions recorded at the Record Plant, New York for the aborted
"Lifehouse" project, which then became the material for "Who's Next". For those of you
who might have wondered how PT's lead style got so mean sounding on Won't Get Fooled
Again, that's Leslie West (from Mountain) playing lead on this version. (See liner-notes in-
cluded on re-release of Who's Next.) Tracks 7 -10 on this CD were available in unedited
form, though "mediocre mono sound" years before the updated and expanded re-release of
Live At Leeds which has them all in "pristine stereo". This one's a "keeper"! Compare
with the above listed CD's.

Tracks 1-6: Credited on disc face and back cover to "live in the studio 1970" these are the
March '71 New York Lambert productions taken straight off the master tape,
maybe one generation down but brilliant sound quality.

Tracks 7-10: Credited to "Live at Leeds 1970 as is true. Taken from a tape source. Slightly
muddy sound.
