 PRESSED ON TRANSPARENT CLEAR VINYL

SCARCE limited edition with awesome full color custom designed cover ....it's hard to say which LIVE LP is better (Live At Leeds or this Fillmore East), both are soundboard mixing desk quality; the Fillmore East was intended to be released (by "Decca Records") BEFORE "Live At Leeds" but was scrapped by Decca ...     

The Who's, Live at the Fillmore East is a great live document of The Who in their early prime demonstrating their dynamic and powerful stage show. This recording must have been professionally recorded since it was suppose to be released as a live album and has been a popular bootleg of the band. For whatever reason that idea was scrapped and instead the band released a couple of years later, their only official live album.   The Live At Leeds album wasn't too shabby either as many consider it one of the best live albums of all time (The New York Times, Q Magazine)   The Who in 1968 toured almost non-stop. With approximately one hundred thirty seven shows, they toured the UK three times, the US twice, and made their first visit to Australia in January. On their first US tour they played the Fillmore East on April 4th, 5th, and 6th. The soundboard recording of the third and final night was made for an anticipated live album which never saw the light of day. Is one of the most essential albums from the era documenting their transition from pop stars wanting to recreate their hits into a jamming rock and roll band determined to put on a spectacle.   Sources date this tape from April 5th. Without corroborating tapes it’s hard to finally determine, but it’s thought that they played “Pictures Of Lily” and “C’mon Everybody” on the fifth.   The Who headlined the Fillmore East with Free Spirits and Buddy Guy opening, starting the show with the Eddie Cochran cover “Summertime Blues,” and afterwards Pete Townshend tells the audience the are going to “play a number that we played the first time last night” before “Fortune Teller.” It’s thought they played it also in Vancouver on March 1st, so this would be the third performance. It segues into ”Tattoo” from The Who Sell Out, their latest LP.   Townshend gets into a long exposition about “Little Billy” and its origin as a single for the American Cancer Society. They play the song expecting it to be a single. It would later be rejected (for being “too long” according to an executive with “a slimy East Coast accent of the nastiest possible kind” Townshend joked) and would be released six years later on Odds & Sods. Given the hopeful tone in Pete’s voice, the meeting occurred after this show. Before “Relax” he calls the Village Theater, the name of the venue before it became the Fillmore East, a “pisshole” and praises Bill Graham’s management. “Relax” is stretched into a long and loud jam session before cutting out.   “My Way,” the second Cochran cover, follows their mini-opera “A Quick One.” The latter songs such as “Shakin’ All Over” and “My Generation” are further opportunities for the band in general, and for Townshend in particular, to stretch, improvise and jam for the audience.
