2010 CD Polydor 32520

Members of The Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame and recent Kennedy Center Honorees, The Who combine energetic live performances with iconic songs that are embedded in popular culture. UMe/Geffen will be releasing THE WHO'S GREATEST HITS, a 19-track single disc career-spanning compilation, on 12/22. Beginning with the band's first single and concluding with a track from its most recent album, ENDLESS WIRE, it's a fantastic place to start your amazing journey into one of the most beloved rock catalogs of all time. In between are songs representing the many peaks of the band's career, from early singles to classic concept albums to more recent successes. Most, if not all, of these classic tracks are instantly recognizable. Millions of US TV viewers know three of these songs already, as the themes to CBS' popular CSI series: "Won't Get Fooled Again," "Who Are You" and "Baba O'Riley."

The Who are one of the most important and successful rock bands of all time, having sold over 100 million records during their long recording career. 'The Greatest Hits And More' is a collection of the best of the band, both in the studio and live, where The Who earned their reputation as 'the loudest band in the world'. The Who's influence can be seen in amyriad of modern bands, and their influence spans the genres, from mod to metal.



This package combines the Who’s 2009 Greatest Hits collection from Geffen with 2010’s Greatest Hits Live in what seems like an obvious pairing. Disc one has all the hits in the original studio versions - it’s always good to hear classics like “I Can’t Explain,” “The Kids Are Alright,” “I Can See for Miles,” “Behind Blue Eyes,” and “Won’t Get Fooled Again” -- while the second disc features many of the same songs done live from performances recorded between 1970 and 2007.
