Live At The Fillmore East - Who - CD

Two CD edition. Live archive release. Live At The Fillmore East is the 50th anniversary of these legendary unreleased recordings from the Fillmore East, New York City, Friday April 5 and Saturday April 6, 1968. The Who were in New York to conclude a grueling tour on April 4th, 1968, the day that Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Was assassinated. America was already a country divided; Anti-Vietnam demonstrations, civil rights disturbances and militant student activism. With this turmoil as a backdrop, The Who performed two incendiary live sets at Bill Graham's legendary Fillmore East on the lower East Side of Manhattan. Features stunning extended versions of 'My Generation', 'A Quick One..., ' 'Shakin' All Over' and two ripping versions of Eddie Cochran numbers - 'Summertime Blues' and 'C'mon Everybody' (the latter unavailable elsewhere).
