The Who - Tommy and Quadrophenia Live

This 3-disc DVD set was just released a week ago.

Disc 1 has a 1989 performance of Tommy.

Disc 2 has a 1996 performance of Quadrophenia

Disc 3 has 22 songs from 3 different shows.

I watched the Quadrophenia disc last night. I loved it! Maybe not the

awesome sound quality of the Live at Royal Albert Hall DVD, but still very good

and the performance was quite good.

I haven't viewed the other discs yet.

I bought it at Best Buy for around $28. Deep Discount DVD is having

one of their 20% sales for another day or two. You can get it from them

for less than $20. Sale code is "ESPN"

I saw that today at Bestbuy. I wished I would have caught it the first week it came out. It was a little too costly and given the fact I already have 3 of their other concert DVD's and the "Tommy" DVD-A, I couldn't justify the expense. Thanks for posting. Do you have any other opinions after watching the other disks? I may consider it in next weeks budget. [;)]

I watched the Tommy disc this weekend. The audio quality on that one was better than the Quadrophenia disc. I later read in the credits section of the booklet that the Tommy show was recorded with the intent of releasing to the public where the Quadrophenia was basically filmed for The Who archives. They worked hard to get it sounding as good as it did, but it is not as good as the Tommy disc. I wish it was the other way around because Tommy just doesn't appeal to me that much other than Pinball Wizard and See Me, Feel Me. Quadrophenia on the other hand, is just great start to finish.
