Re: TheWho Digest Vol 2 Num 198
There was supposed to be a "Pete Townshend's Greatest Hits" album
released on Feb 14th. I'm still waiting. Does anyone have any information?
Also, what's up with "The Ironman?"

hey now- speaking w/jeff w, we discussed the fact that there are
definitive boots from some of the tours (at least 69- amsterdam,and 73-
tales)and shakin all over/68- what is the best boot going around from
the 71 tour? is it really the lifehouse live from 4/26/71- speaking of
that, are there any other known shows from the jan-april 71 young vic
stretch
thanks! i'm listening to the box set disc three- the sequence of
bargain(live)-->>pure and easy-->>song is over-->>bbe kills me
while im ranting and raving, whats the song lineup for whos next
reissue? are they gonna use pure and easy from odds, or from lifehouse
to leeds- seems the FLTL version is faster-and furthermore-did we ever
determine 1. how many lifehouse songs there are and 2. what their
titles are?
outta here-->>mm

Roger Daltrey/John Entwistle tour in Holland:
Dutch tour promotor Mojo Concerts in Delft is still negotiating on some gigs
in Holland. Possibly there will be two concerts at the Paradiso Theatre
(small club in Amsterdam, where the Stones performed last May). The date of
December 8th was mentioned, but _nothing is certain_ at this time! An
earlier performance at the Parkpop Festival in The Hague was cancelled, just
as the Glastonbury Festival gig.
So, Dutch Who-fans who don't wanna miss it this time, be sure to get tickets
for the German shows in Lingen or Duesseldorff!

Whophiles,
The word is that WHO'S NEXT will be re-issued later this
month. Any word on whether or not it will be an extended
re-issue (re: AQO; WSO, LAL)? If it's extended, any word on
what the added tracks will be?

Yeah, I saw this too.
But isnt this just the ultragold or whatever you call it disc without the bonus
tracks which was originally due on the 15th.
No big deal - I'm still waiting for the upgraded one *with* the bonus tracks
*and* Townsends own notes pertaining to the Lifehouse project.
BTW I was talking to the guy at the disc store and he had a theory on why
the disc is coming out without bonus tracks as well as with them. He believes
that since Townshend is so heavily involved and because Who's Next was really an
abridged Lifehouse - that Who's Next will become Lifehouse.
He thinks that the songs from Who's Next and Lifehouse songs left off the album
will be reshuffled into an order meant to reflect the running order of
Lifehouse had it been released originally. Thus being the reason for two
versions - one for people wishing only for a copy of Who's Next(as we now know
it) and those looking for a copy of Lifehouse as originally intended.
I refuted this claim on three counts:
If Who's Next becomes Lifehouse (in the running order originally
intended) what will happen to MY WIFE?
It is not possible to recreate Lifehouse just as it is not possible to
recreate The Beach Boys' SMILE album - in both cases the albums as
intended were never finished. To recreate it they'd have to finish it
- ie go back to the studio as a group and resume recording - and i
just cant see that happening. Also some songs that were finished or
nearly finished have been damaged or lost - eg Time Is Passing, Mary.
Lastly if they could find all the tapes that comprise a completed
Lifehouse in acceptable condition it would almost definitely
constitute a double CD package - and I have heard no word from any
knowledgable source which would suggest this as the case.
Enough analysis - now back 2 the fun......

Subject: PT onstage
I was just told that Pete is going to perform as part of a charity
concert on September 10th at the Paramount (?) which is part of
Madison Square Garden (?) in New York (hope that makes more sense to
you than it does to me). Sinead O'Connor and Paul Simon, and
undoubtedly others, are also on the bill. Top seats are $500. Don't
know what the charity is.
FYI, HTH,
Alan

Presumably it'll be put on the new Odds & Sods. :)

It could be that they've been found, bought back from bootleggers, etc...
and it might be possible to create a reasonable semblance of Lifehouse..
Maybe not a complete version, but an approximate version with some
rough tracks is certainly possible.
But I have to agree that it sounds dubious.

But it doesn't appear to be even close to release, so how would
anyone know?
