Year & Country Issued/Label: 1999 - Unknown - Unknown
Comments: This is a really neat piece. Odd typo for the title (should be "Shepperton Studio Rehearsals) as it even mentions the correctly spelled, "Shepperton" on the back cover. Most of the tracks here are live, Pete Townshend rehearsals and recorded with very good sound quality. The "bonus" tracks seem to be added as filler, as they are available <more complete> elsewhere. The packaging on this CD almost seems homemade, but it appears to be a silver disc (vs. CDr).

Comments: mono soundboard, blue vinyl. Overall very good sound which some issues here and there (i.e. a few flat spots during "Drowned", "Who Are You" doesn't start from the very beginning and has some distortion, etc.). The sound quality of this LP can be greatly improved by remixing it into stereo and remastering it (listen to samples below).

Comments: I can tell you a long story about Bobby The Clown happily buying this LP for $30, and then offering it for $3 after he listened to it, but I wont. Another stinker... "Sparks" is not included in the track listing. "Won't Get Fooled Again" fades early. Speed fluctuations. Note the back cover states, "1980", but the concert is from 1979.

Comments: I remember reading in "The Who: An Illustrated Discography", that this one was rated as "Excellent", so I drove all over NYC trying to find it. When I finally got it on a turntable, the smile disappeared from my face, because to my standards, this one sounded like shit. Unfortunately, one of the problems of not doing the reviews yourself. Anyway, this is another "OK" audience recording, that I really wish was excellent!
