Limited Edition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eWho's Next\u003c\/em\u003e is the fifth studio album by English rock band The Who, released on August 14, 1971. At the beginning of the '70s, the impact of \u003cem\u003eTommy\u003c\/em\u003eweighed heavily on Pete Townshend's shoulders. How on earth would he and the Who top such a successful and important album? The guitarist-songwriter felt he had to take his music and its conceptual strains one step further. He began writing a futuristic fable that would transcend itself beyond the usual conventions of modern music. Intended to be a film, a play, a concert, a mega multimedia and cerebral experience — Townshend called his new project \u003cem\u003eLifehouse. \u003c\/em\u003eAnd although \u003cem\u003eLifehouse\u003c\/em\u003e would stay frozen on the blocks for another 30 years, its seeds sprouted the Who's most cohesive and consistent effort, \u003cem\u003eWho's Next.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHow Townshend's ambitious follow-up ended up as \u003cem\u003eWho's Next\u003c\/em\u003e isn't easy to discern. After several false starts and a break with Who manager\/mentor, Kit Lambert, the record was eventually rescued and shaped by producer\/engineer, Glyn Johns. Much of Townshend's vision was contained within his extensive demos — bits and pieces of a loosely constructed storyline set against experimental melodies and basic backbeats. The album's opening track, \"Baba O'Riley,\" was originally an elongated cycle of synthesizer loops. What it became was an anthem, highlighted by a tumultuous build, Dave Arbus' rambling violin and Roger Daltrey's acclamation of a \"Teenage Wasteland.\" The thunder is sustained by the contagious \"Bargain\" — now, like so much of the Who's music, a commercial jingle. \"Love Ain't for Keeping\" chugs away against a fierce acoustic rhythm while John Entwistle's sole contribution of \"My Wife\" remains one of his most electrifying songs. \"This Song Is Over\" features Nicky Hopkins' incomparable piano work and ends with a chorus pulled from \"Pure and Easy,\" the central number of \u003cem\u003eLifehouse\u003c\/em\u003e that failed to make the final cut, but would resurface three years later on the \u003cem\u003eOdds And Sods\u003c\/em\u003e compilation. The theme is maintained on \"Getting in Tune,\" reintroduced during the Who's most recent tour, and \"Going Mobile,\" a track with Townshend on lead vocals that recounts a couple of \u003cem\u003eLifehouse\u003c\/em\u003e's characters cruising the streets in a Cadillac.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote cite=\"https:\/\/elusivedisc.com\/the-who-whos-next-san-francisco-1971-180g-4lp-box-set\/allmusic.com\"\u003eFeatures\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003csection id=\"features\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLimited Edition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4LP Box Set\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e180g Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOriginal Album Remastered\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFirst-Ever, Complete Release of San Francisco 1971 Show with All Tracks Newly Remixed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e12 x 12 Box\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEach Album in a Gatefold Jacket with Printed Sleeves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNotes from Andy Neil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection id=\"selections\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSelections\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide One:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBaba O'Riley\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBargain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLove Ain't for Keeping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMy Wife\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Song Is Over\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide Two:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGetting in Tune\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGoing Mobile\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBehind Blue Eyes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWon't Get Fooled Again\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide Three:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Can't Explain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSubstitute\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSummertime Blues\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMy Wife\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBaba O'Riley\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide Four:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBehind Blue Eyes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBargain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWon't Get Fooled Again\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide Five:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBaby Don't You Do It\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMagic Bus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide Six:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntroduction to Tommy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOverture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAmazing Journey\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSparks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide Seven:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePinball Wizard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSee Me, Feel Me\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMy Generation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide Eight:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNaked Eye\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGoing Down\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u0026amp;^05%^\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"UMG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54452474970441,"sku":"602435858531","price":20.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1004\/4342\/3049\/files\/1_3bd52edb-cb3e-424e-bf19-05e79c874a69.jpg?v=1779425537","url":"https:\/\/echoarchiv.com\/products\/pre-order-the-who-whos-next-san-francisco-1971-4x-lp-box-set","provider":"Echo Archive Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
