Description
PLEASE READ BEFORE BIDDING: Please read the entire auction listing, including shipping costs, before writing to ask a question. OUR GOAL IS CUSTOMER SATISFACTION. In order to meet that goal, we will ALWAYS work with our customers on any concerns that may arise. Because of that dedication, there should be no need to open a resolution dispute before working with us. Please keep in mind, we would prefer to continue to provide you the opportunity to acquire the rare music we present each and every week. Payment is required within seven days. We mail all paid items ONE WEEK after auctions end. Our listings are time consuming in detail and we are often traveling to find these gems, which at times delays the delivery schedule by a day or two. We ALWAYS process and ship every paid order. We have no control over parcels once they are mailed from our local Post Office. Overseas mail to some countries (Italy, Russia, France, in particular) has become very slow. Opening a dispute for slow mail is unacceptable.

RARE (MONO MIXES)
............................................................................. ORIGINAL 1967 first pressing on the famed DECCA RECORDS label
......................................................................................................................................
The mono mixes provide an entirely different sound with bold-punchy production over the speaker panning stereo edition. AS well the MONO issue was deleted very soon after released in 1967.
- The mighty WHO featuring one of the best, most important, and thoroughly entertaining albums, peaking with the timeless smash gems,
- "I Can See For Miles" and "I Can't reach You" but don't stop there boys, there's nuggets up and down both sides... an amazing inventive LP = BOOM!
- So this is what happens if you let Mods go psychedelic -- rather than do a half-hearted jump on the bandwagon they will instead give you a full-fledged parody of the music world around them.
- Disguised as a show on a pirate radio station, complete with jingles and faux advertisements, The Who ~ Sell Out shows that Pete Townshend was a keen listener to the music of 1967, because much of it shows up in more or less disguised form on this album -- The Piper at the Gates of Dawn and Sgt Pepper being some of the more obvious examples -- but almost always the context will be a funny one. Call it a step ahead, if you wish.
For The Who themselves, the album was a handy device to bridge what must have been a transitional period for them; this was at the time when they were just shedding their R&B-influenced Mod personalities, but they hadn't quite become the rock gods yet that Tommy would make them. That transition is also noticeable in the music, as a surprising number of themes and riffs from earlier songs show up on this album, and riffs that would be more fully developed on Tommy also make a first appearance here.
The Who Sell Out leaves a very strong artistic impression; it is a very clever, entertaining record with punch and some really great hooks. "I Can See for Miles" the obvious LP highlight -- they've never been this entertaining ever since this album. - ..........................................................
