The Who By Numbers - 50th Anniversary Super Deluxe Edition 5CD + Blu-ray Box Set

The Who's 1975 album brings a more personal edge to the band's rock sound, balancing the bite of 'Slip Kid' and 'However Much I Booze' with the intimacy of 'Imagine A Man' and the bounce of 'Squeeze Box'. This expanded set puts the original record in the company of demos, studio work and mid-1970s performances.

This 50th-anniversary Super Deluxe Edition box set includes five CDs: the remastered original album, eleven Pete Townshend demos, tracking sessions and outtakes, alternate mixes and vocals, and a live set recorded at Swansea's Vetch Field on 12 June 1976. The Blu-ray features the album in Dolby Atmos, 5.1 surround and 2026 stereo mixes, alongside video of the band's Pontiac concert on 6 December 1975. A 100-page hardback book is also included.
