We all know that the upcoming Who reissue of My Generation is on its way. And many of us of are pleased as can be with the content that the five CDs will contain. If you haven’t discovered them already, well, I’ll recount them here for you:
The five CDs will offer 79 tracks including a newly remastered version of the original twelve mono tracks. The other four bonus discs include one with a stereo remix of the classic 1965 album. The next two combine to present forty-four alternate tracks, some previously unavailable. The third disc handles those in Mono, while the 4th explores the Stereo mixes. The remaining fifth disc is filled with eleven re-discovered demos tracks.
The set will add in an 80-page hard bound book that will appeal to fans with its filled treasure chest of photos, essays, notes, credits, and memorabilia from the classic period that surrounds the original album.
The 5CD Super Deluxe Box will be released on November 18.
