    Recording: BBC studios and audience
    Comments: The sound quality varies from excellent Soundboard to scratchy with
    noticable "hiss" on some of the older recordings. However, don't this does not detract
    from the overall quality of this release. This is really a great CD with very nice packag-
    ing. Comes in a gatefold digi-pack with a plastic tray. The inside front cover features
    the cover of the European release entitled THE WHO (black cover with the four band
    members featured on the cover) This particular release also features a cover used
    on previous CD and LP bootleg releases of the BBC sessions.
