MAGIC BUS

M- *CLEAN* 1967 original first pressing vinyl
with the original 1967 Decca Records inner sleeve
The explosive sounds of peak sixties WHO, only released in the USA, contains powerful sides filled with classic tunes like Magic Bus and I Can See For Miles...
In 1968 the Who had a surprise American hit with "Magic Bus" but had no new album to support it. So USA Decca Records quickly cobbled together a collection of singles, flipsides, UK-only EP tracks and earlier album cuts to create this album. Though it was a good seller for them, the group and management didn't appreciate the LP so it was never released outside the usa or even re-released with the remastering treatment like thier other albums....
"I Can't Reach You" and "Our Love Was (Is)", both of which are great, come from "The Who Sell Out." (But this album is the only place you can find a different version of "Our Love Was" with a clean intro that is having no crossfade from a previous song ala the 'Sell Out' Lp version.
"Run Run Run" is another great highly catchy song about a perpetually unlucky girl, and "Someone's Coming" and "Doctor, Doctor" are strange-but-fun John Entwistle compositions. "Bucket T." is the Who's attempt at Beach Boys-type material (Keith Moon's favorite song was "Don't Worry Baby.")
"Magic Bus" and "Pictures of Lily" (both timeless songs and of the Who's best 60's tracks) were, at the time, the only way to get the 45'son Lp. "Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde," a fun little song only available on this album, which is supposedly about Keith Moon's behavior when he was drinking. And a different version of "Call Me Lightning" without lead guitar shows up here.
In short, this is an interesting, highly sought and collected Who Lp.
