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).
