The Who
A Quick One 2LP (RSD 2026)
Description
A Quick One was originally released on December 9, 1966. It reached #4 in the U.K.
Unlike other albums by The Who, where guitarist Pete Townshend was the primary or sole songwriter, A Quick One features significant songwriting contributions from all band members. The album ends with a musical suite titled "A Quick One, While He's Away", which served as an inspiration for later rock operas the band was involved with, such as Tommy and Quadrophenia.
This 2-LP version for Record Store Day includes the original album (in mono) as well as an LP of B-sides, alternate versions, and instrumentals. Lavishly packaged with printed inner bags and pressed on color vinyl.
Record Store Day titles are strictly limited and non-returnable.
