Description
A five-CD box set of Quadrophenia with a 2011 remaster of the original double album and including two CDs of Pete’s demos and a fifth disc of eight tracks remixed in 5.1 DVD-A surround sound. Limited edition, housed in a hard slip-case.
Deluxe 100-page, hard-back book featuring a brand new 13,000 word essay by Pete Townshend, shedding exclusive light on the period before and during the creation of the album, explaining some of the technical processes – the startling and progressive use of synthesisers as well as a revealing insight into the story of the album’s central character – young mod Jimmy Cooper.
Also features Pete’s in depth, track-by-track guide to the demos and a revealing studio diary.
The stunning book also includes a treasure trove of previously unseen personal notes, photographs, handwritten lyrics and memorabilia from the period, all recently uncovered in Pete’s archive.
The package also replicates the striking black and white imagery from the original vinyl LP photography by Graham Hughes and Ethan A. Russell.
• A replica 7″ vinyl single featuring hit single ‘5.15’ / ‘Water’ in the original picture sleeve.
