| Discography |The Who - Acetates:
About: Acetates (lacquer coated aluminum discs) are among the rarest recordings. They are pressed in very small quantities to allow band members, producers, record co's to hear the music recorded on their personal turntables. As collectables, they are "hit or miss". Hits include; rare pieces and unreleased recordings. Misses are; worn out acetates (typical acetates only play about 10 times) and bad gambles (i.e. you spent a lot of money and expected to find a rare recording - but the acetate only has a common one).
Below is my current collection of Who & Who solo acetates. Some are real hits and others are... (pretty pictures). I'm happy to have them all. For the unique stuff, I've provided sound samples so you can listen to them and get a good flavor. Enjoy!
Title / Country / Format / Label: It Was You / UK / 7" 45 RPM / Dick James
Comments: 1963 recording by The Detours (pre-The Who) with Doug Sandom on drums. (See It Was You page for full details)
Original Mix Original Mix w/2db Gain On Vocals Stereo Mix w/2db Gain On Vocals
Title / Country / Format / Label: I'm The Face / UK / 7" 45 RPM / IBC
Comments: In 1963, The Who were known as "The Detours". During that period, they recorded (3) three songs, "Come On" (The Rolling Stones first song, a cover of a Chuck Berry song), "It Was You" (the first recorded version of Pete Townshend's first ever song) and "Please Don't Send Me Home" (another Pete Townshend original, with John Entwistle on lead vocal). Apparently, these (3) three tracks were more "Beatles-sounding" than what The Who evolved into. In February, 1964, The Detours changed their name to The Who. During this period, they recorded (2) two songs, "I'm The Face" (May 11, 1964 - a very different version than <later> The High Numbers version) and a second recording of "It Was You" (June 4, 1964). These (2) two tracks have never been released (although they will most likely end up on a future Who release). Note: This acetate (and it's accompanying one below) are believed to be originally owned by Helmut Gordon (one of the band's original managers).
Sound Sample(s): I'm The Face (Acetate) I'm The Face (Stereo Mix) I'm The Face (High Numbers Original Version - Mono)
Title / Country / Format / Label: It Was You / UK / 7" 45 RPM / IBC
Comments: As mentioned <directly> above, this is the band's 2nd recording of Pete Townshend's first song (and currently unreleased). This version features Keith Moon, vs. Doug Sandom (their previous drummer, who played on The Detours' recordings). While never released by The Who, the song was released by The Naturals (another UK band which played on the same tour circuit) prior to this June 4th recording. An acetate of The Detours' recording was sent to The Naturals to "learn the song". After The Who began to become well known, respected and successful... an Australia band, Chaos & Co covered the song (in 1966) as well.
Sound Sample(s): It Was You (Acetate) It Was You (Stereo Mix) It Was You (The Naturals) It Was You (Chaos & Co)
Title / Country / Format / Label: Zoot Suit / UK / 10" 45 RPM / Fontana
Comments: Shortly after The Who became The Who, they switched their name to "The High Numbers" (which John Entwistle hated). Under that name, they recorded and released one single, Zoot Suit b/w I'm The Face. For many years, it was believed that the single was originally released as "I'm The Face" b/w "Zoot Suit", but after years of research, talking to band members, reviewing record company records, etc., it was never <originally> released that way. The confusion seems to have come from the close proximity between The Who recording "I'm The Face" (above) and then shortly there after, The High Numbers. Perhaps it was intended to be the "a" side and either a last minute change or "bad omen" flipped it. This acetate seems to be the same/similar mix as the original mono release, but includes the count-in. Note "The Who" (written "The Whos") crossed out and "The High Numbers" written above it. Another collector in the UK has a twin of this acetate, so at least (2) two of these have survived.
Title / Country / Format / Label: Zoot Suit / UK / 10" 45 RPM / Fontana
Comments: I would take an educated guess that this copy of the acetate was pressed after the similar one above. Why? The above copy suffers from band name confusion. This copy seems to have come later, since the band's name is only "The High Numbers." The last owner bought it from the widow of UK session guitarist, Alan Pinches (who passed away in 2010). Apparently he was a collector and had it for many years (after obtaining it from another musician friend). This version has no count off start (which the version above does have).
Title / Country / Format / Label: I'm The Face / Zoot Suit / USA / 7" 45 RPM / Audiodisc
Comments: Apparently intended for a wider release (and with the titles flipped), they were preparing for a USA release. But, just like the song says, "Here by the sea and sand, nothing ever goes as planned."
Title / Country / Format / Label: I'm The Face / Zoot Suit / South Africa / 7" 45 RPM / Fontana
Comments: Like its USA counterpart, "I'm The Face" as the "a" side (labeled as "The Face"). This appears to be the same/similar mix as the original UK, but the acetate plays 5% slow (which is easy to correct digitally). I will assume that along with the USA acetate, their original intentions were to initially release this in English speaking countries (perhaps an Australia copy exist?).
Title / Country / Format / Label: Do The Strip / UK / 7" 45 RPM / EMI
Comments: This unreleased Pete Townshend demo has appeared on various bootlegs over the years, but in edited form (the full length is 4:27). Intended as a potential Who song either as a single or for the My Generation album, but not used at the time. Musically, it sounds like a less developed version of the 1965 "Sand" demo (which was released on the 2019 Who album as a bonus track with additional parts added).
Sound Sample(s): Do The Strip (Acetate) Do The Strip (Stereo Mix) Sand (Original Version)
Title / Country / Format / Label: Anyway, Anyhow, Anywhere / Anytime You Want Me / UK / 7" 45 RPM / IBC
Comments: (2) two interesting things about this acetate. 1) The title is printed as "Anyhow, Anyway, Anywhere" and the 2) The "b" side is "Anytime You Want Me", which was how the single was released in the USA, Australia, Canada & New Zealand (vs. The UK and the rest of the world).
Title / Country / Format / Label: I'm A Boy / UK / 7" 45 RPM / IBC
Comments: This is an unreleased, alternate (but similar) to the Meaty Beaty Big & Bouncy version.
Sound Sample(s): I'm A Boy (Acetate)
Title / Country / Format / Label: Batman / UK / 7" 45 RPM / IBC
Comments: Part of the single set comprising Ready Steady Who, this particular acetate was previously owned by John Entwistle.
Title / Country / Format / Label: Boris The Spider / UK / 7" 45 RPM / IBC
Comments: Perhaps considered as a single, this song was issued on (3) three different labels (see below). This particular acetate was previously owned by John Entwistle.
Title / Country / Format / Label: Boris The Spider / Circles / UK / 10" 45 RPM / IBC
Comments: "Someone" did something odd with this one and the acetate (below). They took part of the existing songs and added it to the end of the songs to extend them. "Boris The Spider" is extended to 3:48 (vs. 2:28) and "Circles" is extended to 3:18 (from 2:27). The additions don't seem to add any value or make any sense as they don't seem natural and in fact, sound strange.
Sound Sample(s): Boris The Spider (Acetate) Circles (Acetate)
Title / Country / Format / Label: Heatwave / Run Run Run / UK / 10" 45 RPM / IBC
Comments: Another "artificially extended" version (as above). "Heatwave" is extended to 3:41 (vs. 1:54). "Run, Run, Run" is the length of the A Quick One album version.
Sound Sample(s): Heatwave (Acetate)
Title / Country / Format / Label: Boris The Spider / UK / 7" 45 RPM / EMI
Comments: This version features a different mix.
Title / Country / Format / Label: Happy Jack / UK / 7" 45 RPM / EMI
Comments: This version is slightly different than the released version. Besides recorded 2.5% slow (an easy digital fix), it is missing some Keith Moon vocal overdubs at 1:35:7. Note: The samples <below> start just about at that point.
Sound Sample(s): Happy Jack (Released Version) Happy Jack (Acetate)
Title / Country / Format / Label: Whiskey Man / Non-Who Track / UK / 7" 45 RPM / EMI
Comments: This version features Keith Moon's backing vocals on a verse (starting about 1:03:7) where as the <released> mono version overdubs the entire verse and the stereo version edits Keith's vocals out, leaving John's original vocal on the right channel only. You can hear Keith's original vocal come in at the very end of the stereo sample on the word, "go".
Sound Sample(s): Whiskey Man (Acetate) Whiskey Man (Mono) Whiskey Man (Stereo)
Title / Country / Format / Label: I Need You / Non-Who Track / UK / 7" 45 RPM / EMI
Comments: This acetate is somewhat disappointing since the unedited master tape extends the song quite a bit... (but this doesn't). It is nothing more than a mirror of the mono version of the song.
Title / Country / Format / Label: Run, Run, Run / Whiskey Man / South Africa / 7" 45 RPM / Trutone
Comments: This is a cool acetate from South Africa. Nothing remarkable, other than the date of 9-2-67. Does this mean September 2, 1967 or February 9, 1967? It's listed in the 1966 section since these songs are from 1966 (for all we know, it was manufactured in 1966 and someone received it in 1967).
Title / Country / Format / Label: King Rabbit / I Can't Reach You / UK / 7" 45 RPM / Essex Music Group
Comments: Pete Townshend's "King Rabbit" demo is a great song that was released on Pete Townshend's <defunct> website circa 2000. "I Can't Reach You" seems to be a forgotten track as if you looked at this acetate at a glance, you would think it might be a one sided disc. However, the <no label> "b" side has groves on it (and another unreleased demo). Unfortunately, they tried to destroy this song by intentionally scratching up the side (a common occurrence with acetates when a song is rejected). However, with much ado, I was able to grab a sound bite. There is another demo of "I Can't Reach You", which is more like The Who version than this organ heavy version.
Sound Sample(s): King Rabbit (Acetate) King Rabbit (Stereo Mix) I Can't Reach You (Acetate) I Can't Reach You (2nd Demo)
Title / Country / Format / Label: Our Love Was / UK / 7" 45 RPM / EMI
Comments: Unreleased Pete Townshend demo (Somewhat close to The Who Sell Out version).
Sound Sample(s): Our Love Was (Acetate) Our Love Was (Stereo Mix)
Title / Country / Format / Label: I'm Thinking Of You All The While / Miles & Miles / UK / 7" 45 RPM / EMI
Comments: "I'm Thinking Of You All The While" is one of three Pete Townshend demos of "Sunrise". The recording from this acetate was used on The Who Sell Out Deluxe Edition (Box Set) as the master tape for the same was unavailable. "Miles & Miles" is a great demo version of "I Can See For Miles" (since released officially).
Sound Sample(s): I'm Thinking Of You All The While (Acetate) I'm Thinking Of You All The While (Stereo Mix) Miles & Miles (Acetate) Miles & Miles (Stereo Mix)
Title / Country / Format / Label: It Was You / Seven Golden Daffodils / Australia / 7" 45 RPM / EMI
Comments: Pete Townshend's first song ("It Was You") as performed by Chaos & Co, an obscure Australian band looking to "get a hit" with an unreleased Pete Townshend / Who song, which was previously covered by the UK band, The Naturals in 1964. Quite different in style than The Who or Naturals' versions (and the acetate is the same version as the released version).
Sound Sample(s): It Was You (Chaos & Co - Acetate) It Was You (Chaos & Co - Stereo Mix)
Title / Country / Format / Label: So Sad About Us / Whiskey Man / Bois The Spider / USA / 10" 45 RPM / Allegro Sound
Comments: This appears to be a potential single (or EP) for the US market (note the release date of June 12, 1967, which was approximately (2) two months after the release of the Happy Jack ("A Quick One") LP). It is also interesting to note that So Sad About Us b/w Whiskey Man was released as a single in The Philippines. There's nothing remarkable about these tracks (common mono versions) other than "So Sad About Us" has a tape drop out towards the beginning of the song (see sound sample below).
Sound Sample(s): So Sad About Us Whiskey Man Boris The Spider
Title / Country / Format / Label: Someone's Coming / UK / 7" 45 RPM / EMI
Comments: John Entwistle's <unreleased> demo version. Both <single sided> copies previously owned by John Entwistle.
Sound Sample(s): Someone's Coming (Acetate) Someone's Coming (Stereo Mix)
Title / Country / Format / Label: Silas Stingy / UK / 7" 45 RPM / EMI
Comments: John Entwistle's <unreleased> demo version. Previously owned by John Entwistle.
Sound Sample(s): Silas Stingy (Acetate) Silas Stingy (Stereo Mix)
Title / Country / Format / Label: Pictures Of Lily / UK / 7" 45 RPM / EMI
Comments: Single sided acetate. Plays the same as the UK single.
Title / Country / Format / Label: I Can See For Miles (Version 3) / UK / 12" 45 RPM / EMI
Comments: "Version 3" is an alternate mix of "I Can See For Miles". If I recall, I had trouble with the "b" side (but probably worth revisiting).
Sound Sample(s): I Can See For Miles Version 3 (Acetate)
Title / Country / Format / Label: I Can See For Miles / USA / 8" 45 RPM / Decca
Comments: Edited version (for radio play) of "I Can See For Miles" (which is also found on one of the pink label promo singles).
Title / Country / Format / Label: Village Green / Little Tommy / UK / 7" 45 RPM / Essex Music
Comments: Unreleased single by The Brood - Produced by John Entwistle & Keith Moon as a deal to receive discounted Bentley's from John Mason (Auto Sales), who managed the band (Keith Moon may be on backing vocals on the "Little Tommy"). This acetate was previously owned by John Entwistle.
Sound Sample(s): Village Green (Acetate) Little Tommy (Acetate)
Title / Country / Format / Label: Summertime Blues / My Way / UK / 10" 45 RPM / EMI
Comments: Aborted 1968 single comprised of studio tracks. "Summertime Blues" (mono mix) is sped up by 8% and "My Way" is the heavy mono mix.
Sound Sample(s): Summertime Blues (Acetate) Summertime Blues (Acetate-Speed Corrected) My Way (Acetate)
Title / Country / Format / Label: Magic Bus / Someone's Coming / New Zealand / 45 RPM / Philips
Comments:
n/a
Title / Country / Format / Label: Overture / Underture / UK / 8" 45 RPM / Trident Studios
Comments: Labeled as "The Who", but actually Pete Townshend demos for Tommy.
Title / Country / Format / Label: The Acid Queen / Sally Simpson / UK / 8" 45 RPM / Trident Studios
Comments: As above, labeled as "The Who", but actually Pete Townshend demos for Tommy.
Title / Country / Format / Label: I'm Free / Tommy's Holiday Camp / Welcome / We're Not Gonna Take It / UK / 7" 45 RPM (EP) / EMI
Comments: Pete Townshend demos for "Tommy". Note the titles, "Camp"
("Tommy's Holiday Camp") and "Take It" ("We're Not Gonna Take It").
Title / Country / Format / Label: Pinball Wizard / Dog's Part II / Acid Queen / South Africa / 7" 45 RPM (EP) / Trutone
Comments:
Odd combination adding "Acid Queen" to the "Pinball Wizard" single...
Title / Country / Format / Label: Unreleased Album / UK / LP / EMI
Comments:
Somewhat of an Odds & Sods before its time, an untitled album was assembled for release in 1970, but scrubbed. Note the tracks on the label faces. "The Seeker" is unedited version (eventually released on the 2020 RSD "Odds & Sods" LP), "Little Billy" is live from the Fillmore East, '68, "Young Man Blues" is the same studio version as The House That Track Built version. The mono tracks, "Early Morning Cold Taxi", "Jaguar", "Summertime Blues" (8% sped up version) and "My Way" include some mix variations. The songs are connected by unused The Who Sell Out jingles and Pete Townshend's <live> intro to "Little Billy".Sound Sample(s): The Seeker (Acetate)
Title / Country / Format / Label: My Way / Summertime Blues / Young Man Blues / UK / 7" 45 (EP) / EMI
Comments: Unreleased (EP) from the Unreleased Album <above
>.
Title / Country / Format / Label: Live At Leeds / UK / LP / IBC
Comments: What makes this somewhat interesting is that the sides are reversed. A label mistake? Or possible original (and rejected) track order?
Speaking of mistakes, note that side one is printed "33" and side two is "45".
Title / Country / Format / Label: Backtrack 7 Mixed Bag / UK / LP / IBC
Comments: This acetate mirrors its commercial counterpart. Note the "33" and "45" similar to Live At Leeds (above). The Who songs included are, "The Seeker", "Summertime Blues" (from "Live At Leeds"), "Here For More".
Title / Country / Format / Label: Backtrack 14 The Ox / UK / LP / IBC
Comments: The Who album of only John Entwistle songs - acetate version. Track listing: Heinz Baked Beans, Heaven & Hell, Doctor Jekyll & Mr Hyde, Fiddle About, Cousin Kevin, Doctor Doctor, Medac, Boris The Spider, I've Been Away, Whiskey Man, In The City, Someone's Coming, Silas Stingy.
Title / Country / Format / Label: Cinnamon Girl / Pick Me Up Big Chicken / UK / 7" 33 1/3 / Trident Studios
Comments: "Cinnamon Girl" was originally intended and recorded for Smash Your Head Against The Wall (John Entwistle's first solo album). However, once he wrote "My Size", it was abandoned. When I first sat down with John in January, 1996, I asked him about the song and proposed using it as a "bonus" track for an intended CD release of "Smash Your Head Against The Wall". John's response was:
"I only write enough songs for an album."(hMMM... what does that mean???)
I questioned him further (knowing that it was intended for the album)..John, your fans want to hear it on your official album!
"They can get it on a bootleg. I'm not releasing it!"
I didn't like that answer. At the time I was close with a lot of folks surrounding John and I asked them one by one to mention it and "bug" him about it. He finally "gave in" and it ended up as a CD bonus track. (Great cover of the Neil Young song.) From John Entwistle's personal collection.
Title / Country / Format / Label: My Size / What Are We Doing Here? / UK / 7" 33 1/3 / Trident Studios
Comments: Both "a" and "b" side same/similar to the USA mix of "Smash Your Head Against The Wall" (note: The UK and USA albums have mix variations). From John Entwistle's personal collection.
Title / Country / Format / Label: My Size (2nd Cut) / What Are We Doing Here? / UK / 7" 33 1/3 / Trident Studios
Comments: "My Size" has a "big swoop" before the dueling guitars (USA Mix) and "What Are We Doing Here?" might be a different performance. From John Entwistle's personal collection.
Title / Country / Format / Label: What Are We Doing Here? / What Are We Doing Here? (Phased Version) / UK / 7" 33 1/3 / Trident Studios
Comments: The "a" side is the same/similar to the UK version. The "b" side is an odd phased version. From John Entwistle's personal collection.
Sound Sample(s): What Are We Doing Here? (Phased Version) (Acetate)
Title / Country / Format / Label: What Kind Of People Are They? (2nd Version) / You're Mine / UK / 7" 33 1/3 / Trident Studios
