Album: Who's Last aka The Who Live

LPs (vinyl) Sampled: MCA (UK), MCA (USA)

CDs (original mix) Sampled: "Who's Last": MCA (UK), MCA (USA), MCA (Japan), "The Who Live": MCA (Germany), MCA (France)

LP Comments: The MCA (UK) sounds better than the MCA (USA).

CD (original mix) comments: The MCA (Germany) sounds better than other versions.

Summary: The best source for this music is the MCA (Germany) CD.

Other Comments: This album was released after the breakup of The Who. Apparently none of the band members had any interest in it and the results show it as it features what sounds like some of the worst performances of the 1982 Tour. According to producer, Cy Langston (who mixed the album), MCA was not happy with the original mix and insisted he remix the album. As with the remixed live tracks on "It's Hard" (from the last show in North American, 1982) there was a huge improvement in the perceived performance. I believe a remix would significantly help these songs.

The release of the title, "The Who Live" in Germany and France is somewhat deceiving as MCA used pictures of The Who circa 1975 on the cover(s), misleading the potential purchaser as to what they were really getting ...

CD copies of "Who's Last" were issued as a double CD and single CD in the UK. The single CD version(s) have the same track listing as the double CD's, but with shorter track time. Apparently the crowd noise between tracks was trimmed down to make the album fit on one CD.

Track Listing: My Generation, I Can't Explain, Substitute, Behind Blue Eyes, Baba O'Riley, Boris The Spider, Who Are You, Pinball Wizard, See Me, Feel Me, Love Reign O'er Me, Long Live Rock, Won't Get Fooled Again, Dr. Jimmy, Magic Bus, Summertime Blues, Twist And Shout
