- The Who: An Illustrated Discography by Ed Hanel
(ISBN 0.86001.810.5 Omnibus Press)
Though long outdated, I still highly recommend this book. It lists regular WHO and solo releases from the U.K./ U.S./ Canada, Germany and many other countries, as well as vinyl and tape bootlegs up to 1981 and provides more detail than most other source, however, this book does not list CDs.
This book has been reissued and is again available.
- Hot Wacks: The Last Wacks - Hot Wacks Book XV as well as; Supplements 1, 2, 3,
4, 5 & 6. (ISBN 0-96980 80-3-8, Fourth Printing May 1995 (Hot Wacks Press, P.O.Box 544 Owen Sound, Ontario, N4K 5R1 CANADA, Fax 519-376-9449)
This series of books list in brief detail information such as LP / CD titles, track lists, labels, index #'s, sound quality and any other details (if known). Supplements are periodically issued.
A “must have” for all serious bootleg collectors!
- Live! Music Review
(November 1996, Master-File 1993-1995 and Master-File #2, 1995 - 1997 issues et al.)
This is one of the best and most current reference sources for new CD releases, re- releases, book titles as well as what's coming, inclusive reviews.
* Baba O'Riley's Bootleg Page has been informed that as of July 9, 2000 Live! Music Review has ceased operations. This may leave ICE magazine as the only remaining periodical regularly reviewing bootlegs.

It has not been my intention to plagiarize, steal or in any other way misappropriate or misrepresent the use of this information without giving credit to the site from which it was referenced. This page contained several items on CD I had neither seen nor heard of previously and the list appeared to be quite accurate as I have since been able to personally document several items listed here.
Since that time, I have verified and documented the existence of all items initially referenced from this page (approx. 15 CD's) and all items on Baba O'Riley's Bootleg Page have been credited either to the original source or its contributor. However, it should be noted that the Bootleg Who Recordings web page served as the initial inspiration for this web page and is hereby acknowledged and duly credited.
- The Who Concert File
(1997 Omnibus Press ISBN: 0.7119.6316.9, order No: OP 47879)
Thanks to Joe McMichael and “Irish” Jack Lyons, the authors of this published book, it is now possible to more accurately identify shows and the origin of several recordings. This is a great and invaluable resource packed with concert dates and notes about many shows including studio recording sessions and TV appearances adding yet another dimension to “THE WORLD’S GREATEST ROCK 'N ROLL BAND” for fans and collectors alike. and please visit “Irish” Jack's Page at thewho.net!
