PLEASE READ BEFORE BIDDING: Please read the entire auction listing, including shipping costs, before writing to ask a question. OUR GOAL IS CUSTOMER SATISFACTION. In order to meet that goal, we will ALWAYS work with our customers on any concerns that may arise. In the unlikely instance that you feel the need to open a resolution dispute before working with us, you will immediately be blocked from any further chance to acquire the rare music we present each and every week. Payment is required within seven days. We mail all paid items ONE WEEK after auctions end. Please keep in mind our listings are time consuming in detail and we are often traveling to find these gems, which at times delays the delivery schedule by a day or two. We ALWAYS process and ship every paid order. We have no control over parcels once they are mailed from our local Post Office.Overseas mail to some countries (Italy, Russia, France, in particular) has become very slow. Opening a dispute for slow mail is unacceptable and will result in blocking the bidder. We work hard to provide excellent service as is represented by our 8000 plus positive feedback. We use a VPI machine and thoroughly clean all records. Each order is carefully packaged by removing the LP from the jacket to avoid seam splits, use of 3 ml plastic cover sleeves over each LP and jacket, cardboard pad inserts, and placed in sturdy record mailers for safe delivery. We take Customer Service seriously, and want you to be satisfied. Please give us 5 stars in each category through the feedback system, and we will be able to effectively continue to fulfill your passion for rare and collectible music! We have served thousands of satisfied customers - far more than our feedback records indicate - and our aim is to continue to do so.

CLEAN ...1969 "DECCA" ORIGINAL ... 2 Lp SET
??????????
THE WHO
TOMMY
USA - DECCA RECORDS - DXSW 7205
CLEAN M- VINYL
SUPER RARE advance release 1969 DOUBLE SET in deluxe triple fold out cover, WITH LYRICS PHOTO BOOKLET...and both original printed DECCA inner sleeves
Original 1969 of the legendary rock opera by Pete Townshend and the WHO ...43+ years old and both records are M- clean...(see details below song listings)
Tommy will remain as Pete Townshend’s and The Who’s grand musical statement. He had toyed with the rock opera concept on two of the group’s early albums but few were prepared for this incredible epic. It was all the more amazing because of how early it came in their career
Conceptually, Tommy is one of the most creative albums in rock history. Pete Townshend combined opera, a touch of classical and rock into a brilliant mix. Nearly four decades after its release, it remains one of the most respected and critically acclaimed albums of the rock era.
This is an album that needs to be played as a whole. Only a few of the songs work on their own when presented individually. The story can be a little obscure here and there but it holds together fairly well. It is dark in places as it contains death, abuse, torture, rejection and loneliness. And let’s not forget the deaf, dumb and blind boy who plays pinball.
The tracks that are my particular favorites are the opening “Overture” with its almost classical elements, “Go To The Mirror” which contains one of the best vocal performances of Roger Daltrey’s career, and the classic rock ‘n’ roll of “Pinball Wizard.” In fairness there are 24 songs and many deserve to be not only listened too but experienced and savored.
Very few groups and artists can say that they have established and popularized a new musical form. Through the rock opera Tommy, Pete Townshend and Who expanded the boundaries of the rock format. It remains a remarkable achievement and an essential listening experience for any fan of rock ‘n’ roll.
