Wednesday, May 24th, 1967

The Who were back at De Lane Lea studios on this day in 1967 to record a different version of Eddie Cochran and Jerry Capehart's 'Summertime Blues'. This as yet unreleased version is a much faster version than the other studio recording made in October 67 for the BBC and released on 1998's reissue of Odds & Sods. It was thought that 'Summertime Blues' might possibly be the next Who single with John Entwistle's delightful 'Someone's Coming' as the b-side. As it turned out 'Someone's Coming' became the b-side of 'I Can See For Miles', released in October 1967.
