I guess my age is showing here.  When I started getting interested in
The Who in 9th grade (1978), the original decca releases were out of print.
I had to look hard to get an import version of LaL to get the nifty
stuff.  As I've said before, I don't know why The Who puts up with the
hatchet job MCA does on their catalog....  When I mail in my box set
questionnaire, I'm going to tape the thing to an envelope with a long
criticism of how MCA handles their catalog.  I doubt it'll make any
difference, but its worth I try I guess.
