If you're not familiar with this release, here's some additional information: "Having to follow four monumental releases in succession, The Who By Numbers is often overlooked and unfairly overshadowed. Produced again by Glyn Johns and released in 1975, the album is a more modest, simple affair, certainly withstanding the test of time by its own merits. In what might be his most personal tell-all collection (outside of some of his future solo albums), Pete Townshend lays it out there in lyrics of brutal honesty regarding battles with alcoholism and womanizing. Probably best known for the radio-friendly ditty Squeeze Box, the set also contains patented Who in the terms of Slip Kid, Blue Red and Grey plus one of bassist John Entwistle’s best compositions, Success Story. London studio regular Nicky Hopkins adds tasteful keyboard fills throughout. As part of the Classic Who LP reissue series, this title was mastered by Chris Bellman at Bernie Grundman Mastering from the original ¼” analog master tapes sourced directly from The Who. The lacquers were cut on Classic Records ALL ANALOG TUBE cutting system with LP’s pressed on Classic’s Super Vinyl Profile for maximum playback fidelity. Authentic UK artwork and labels are meticulously reproduced making this another MUST HAVE Classic reissue! "

If you're not familiar with Classic Records or the Quiex SV-P releases , here's some additional information:

Classic Records has been producing HAND MADE / Audiophile quality reproductions for several years .... They are engineered from the original master tapes and pressed on 200 gram Super Vinyl. They take months to produce the master. Every precaution is taken to insure the most accurate sound reproduction possible.

Super Vinyl is produced in Japan at JVC, the only place in the world where such high quality vinyl is made. Super Vinyl gives an ultra quiet playing surface. It's a vinyl that is heavier and harder than ordinary vinyl. And it has no "memory". You can play a Classic SV-P record over and over again, without having to let it rest after each play. When an ordinary, soft vinyl record is played repeatedly, the groove walls tend to stretch and distort and the sound deteriorates.

While time consuming, their preoccupation with an exact sonic replica of the original master stereo tape creates an incredible listening experience. They cut no corners. They make no compromises. Every Classic Quiex SV-P recording will challenge your equipment and your listening ability."

The LP is NEW / FACTORY SEALED and in MINT Condition!!
