One of the most critically acclaimed concert albums in rock history, from one of the greatest live bands of all time, just got even better--with the revelatory rediscovery of the recording of the following night's performance. The Who's Live At Leeds - 40th Anniversary Super-Deluxe Collectors' Edition (MCA/UMe), released November 16, 2010, brings together not only the iconic band's concert of February 14, 1970 in Leeds but also the following night's previously unreleased concert in Hull, each with an entire performance of the "Tommy" rock opera. Hailed by Nik Cohn in his 1970 album review in The New York Times as "the best live rock album ever made," Live At Leeds has since been ranked by Rolling Stone among its "500 Greatest Albums Of All Time." Yet the original idea was for The Who's first live album to be a compilation of the best performances from the Leeds show and the February 15th concert in Hull. The band members reportedly preferred the Hull recordings over those at Leeds because of the better acoustics of the more spacious venue. But supposedly there were technical problems, notably that the bass guitar had not been recorded on some songs. Recently, however, an associate of the band returned to the vaults to listen to the Hull recordings and was surprised to discover that the set was wholly intact--band, bass and audience! Because of the belief that those recordings had not been complete, the album had become Live At Leeds. Yet as now heard for the first time on Live At Leeds - 40th Anniversary Super-Deluxe Collectors' Edition, the Hull show was equally incendiary.
