The Who: Who's Next (SDE Exclusive Pure Audio) [Blu-ray]

The Who: Who's Next (#30 in the SDE Surround Series)

The Who's classic 1971 album Who's Next - "arguably their artistic pinnacle" in the words of Alexis Petridis – is now available to pre-order as an SDE-exclusive standalone blu-ray audio.

The band’s fifth studio long-player emerged from the ashes of a project called Lifehouse, an ambitious multi-media rock opera conceived by Pete Townshend in 1969, but ultimately aborted. Who’s Next features some of The Who’s best known songs, including ‘Baba O’Riley’ and ‘Won’t Get Fooled Again’.

The blu-ray was previously only available as part of the excellent, but expensive, super deluxe edition of Who's Next, which was released just over a year ago. It features Steven Wilson remixes of Who's Next and 14 bonus tracks. Those bonus tracks are of the highest quality and include unedited versions of singles such as 'The Seeker', 'Let's See Action' and 'Join Together'.

Wilson has created Dolby Atmos Mixes, dedicated 5.1 mixes and new stereo mixes of all 23 tracks on the blu-ray with the exception of 'Bargain' for which the multi-tracks unfortunately could not be found (a Penteo 'upmix' was created for that track for the spatial/surround mixes).

The SDE blu-ray exclusively features Steven Wilson instrumental mixes of the album and all the bonus tracks (except 'Bargain' for the reasons stated above). These instrumentals do not features on the blu-ray in the box set.
