So what about the Hull performance?
Good? Weak? Better than Leeds?
Daltry recently said Hull was a better performance.

I'd probably skip this and trade for a bootleg, I mean, it's so unauthentic and I'd really rather hear what went down, warts and all.
It really kinda chapped when in '79, Entwistle went back to the studio to "RE RECORD HIS BASS PARTS" for the soundtrack of QUADROPHENIA. WHY???? Everyone has their own favorite Who LP and QUAD was mine. It was perfect, it captured some awesome performances, it was recorded well - and I mean, did anyone have trouble hearing John's bass on "THE REAL ME"? I mean, at best, it was just a waste of time. I could never listen to the soundtrack to QUAD for that reason, but I listened to the original the past two nights in a row. Boy, the bass sure is loud on that LP!
Actually, Enwistle remixed the tracks and added bass to only The Real me, and there is an alternate version of The Real Me recorded with Kenny Jones on The Max R and B box set. All the tracks were different mixes bringing the vocals up and added three songs that weren't on the original. The excellent Four Faces is worth the price of the collection alone. Disc one was incedental music from the Movie, and some good stuff indeed. I thought it was a cool sountrack, and should be viewed as a soundtrack...

Crackling noises are O.K. Do Not Correct!!!"
Yes, that is right tatters...but I disagree with your take on the three new songs. Four Faces is fantastic! The Quadro stuff on the disc were the songs from the film, remixed by Entwistle, and a new bass track on The Real Me, and a different ending on that song. I thought that the rehersal version of The Real Me on Max R and B was very interesting. It is very funky and choppy chunks of guitar. Not bad in my opinion. But Quadrophenia is my all time favorite Who Album, and I think much more cohesive and hard hitting than Tommy. Thei are at their peek as musicians on that one...Quote

The version of The Real Me with Kenny is from a 1979 rehearsal tape, recorded right after he joined the group. It's a little sloppy. My recollection of the Quadrophenia soundtrack is that it was a double LP, with the first LP consisting of remixes of half of the songs from the original album. Side Three had the three new songs you mentioned, which were all fairly weak, plus, I think, the 1964 High Numbers tracks Zoot Suit and I'm The Face. Side Four contained songs by other artists that were used in the film, such as James Brown's Night Train, Booker T's Green Onions, and the Kingsmen's Louie, Louie.

true, the records stay (in most cases)Quote

Yes, I finally have the Fun House Sessions box. I passed on it 11 years ago in an effort to appear civil and moderate to a then-girlfriend who did not rock. The relationship tanked within a few years, and I had no Fun House Sessions box until today. The original 5,000 copies sold out quickly. I looked high and low, but could not find a used copy at a reasonable price.
Learned a valuable lesson: Don't try to appear moderate on these matters. See as many shows as you can afford. Get all the hotsh-t reissues. Live as large as you can. You won't regret it later.

Outright bullshit. Technically, it is possible to take the bass guitar track from one show and add it to the recording of a different show (if you have multitrack tapes), but musically, it wont fit. The Who are not Kraftwerk or Depeche Mode, they dont play every show with the exact same speed, timing, song lengths etc.

i looked at rhino's website and it clearly says the first pressing was numbered and these will not be. that will keep the vakue of the original pressings pretty high

It's definitely not from Woodstock because YMB wasn't played there. Actually I doubt anyone one knows where this version is from. It's included in a compilation called the "The Fall Tour Acetates" and others. The tracks were supposedly rescued from tapes of the 1969 Fall US tour for an album that never materialised. Live at Leeds appeared instead.
If you're interested I suggest you check these out:
[www.dimeadozen.org]
The first torrent has this version of YMB (track 12).
[www.dimeadozen.org]

All of these torrents are the best versions of these 1969 Fall Tour soundboards--absolutely classic Who.
