Tangled Up In Who
Label / Index # Hiwatt / Cool Engine
Venue: Tanglewood Music Shed, Lenox,Massachusetts, USA, Tuesday, July 7, 1970 & various other live recordings. Recording: Soundboard Comments: Absolutely stunning 2 disc set. There are some minor sound deviations at the beginning of most songs and dialogue, but these are quickly corrected. There is a flaw in Eysight To The Blind which runs directly into Christmas (not listed on the back cover) without changing track numbers and the "change-over" suffers a minor drop-out and becomes muddled for approx. 2-3 seconds. My Generation be- comes quite muddled half-way through. Between-song dialogue has been left intact which allows for a nice flowing feel to the show.This was the last show of the U.S. tour and also the last time The Who performed Tommy in it's (near) entirety in the U.S until the 25th Anniversary Tour in 1989. The packaging is quite impressive and features a beautiful laminated gatefold cover with picture cardboard inner sleeves. Disc one is red, disc two is blue, both state Cool Engine on them. Refer- ence to the "Hiwatt" label is only made on the back cover. Get it, listen to it and hang on to this one. If I’m not mistaken, Heaven And Hell, Can’t Explain and Water are featured on the 30 Years Of Maximum R&B video.
