This didn't need much arm twisting, but thank you Ken for the push.
The bulk of this mix was culled from three separate live CDs originally sold at the sadly defunct EELPIE.COM.
The Fillmore, 1996
The Empire, 1998
Sadler's Wells, 2000
Two additional tracks are from the "Face To Face" live set and a Secret Policeman's Ball. And yes, it does open and close with "Won't Get Fooled Again." This is not an error.
I tried to sequence as best as I can, but I don't have the tools for cross-fading or editing, so it is not perfect. Pete will introduce a song at the end of one song, but my sequencing will connect to something else. iPodders will know exactly what I am talking about. Small price to pay.
(Speaking of "small price to pay," it's coming up on BW's 11th anniversary, by the way. 11 YEARS! ELEVEN! ELEVEN YEARS! Donate button is still in the same place. 😉 But I digress.)
Listening back to the test run, I realized two things. The first is, with Roger Daltrey as a lead singer, most won't notice just how terrific Pete's lead vocals are. The second is, Pete Townshend is a guitar god! Few, if any, could create as much music as he can on an acoustic guitar.
Have a great long weekend.
Dig it.

Thanks, Sal! Great idea for a playlist.
Thanks to Ken D. It was his idea.
This looks terrific! Thank you!
This is a good appetizer for The Who show on Sunday! Thank you Sal
I think the Empire is the only signature series I'm missing!
I'd have a hard time leaving WGFA from Deep End BRIXTON.
My mistake! You opened with it.
Thanks so much for this. I feel about Pete the same way you do.
This was a no-brainer on my part, Sal... you did all the work. Thanks.
Kevin M (and anyone else fortunate enough to see The Who on 9/1) we hope for a full report next week.
Happy Labor Day all.
Great! Thanks Sal.
Have a wonderful long weekend everybody.
I’ll be there on Sunday as well
I am very grateful for this today Sal and Ken D! Thank you!

I was fortunate enough to see the Sadler's Wells show from the 2nd row. One of the concert highlights of my life! Thanks for the mix, Sal. And enjoy the show on Sunday. I thought the show this spring was fantastic.
Thanks!
Álbum of the year!

This is an awesome mix. Thanks so much!!
Is there anyone else with the gravitas, the songs, the guitar playing, the passion other than Richard Thompson and Pete Townshend?
Their was a fourth Cd "Live At La Jolla 2001". Which includes this funny little bit

Philo,
I didn't realize there was a 4th! Must track it down.
Thanks
👍🏻
Thanks Sal
Pete Townsend is more than the flashy guitarist from Woodstock he can play accoustic with a subtle feel just as well
Nice share
Regards
