Pete Townshend's first solo album will mark its 45th anniversary by returning to stores with a second disc of bonus material that includes previously unreleased tracks.
Cleopatra Records, who recently put out a collection of progressive rock stars performing Supertramp songs, will next set their sights on the the Who. On Oct. 2, the label will release 'Who Are You: An All-Star Tribute To The Who.'
It took over 3 years to put the deal together but Who founder and chief songwriter Pete Townshend has sold the rights to his entire catalog to Spirit Music Group. Word is that the deal has netted Townshend over 100 Million Dollars! That's more than enough money to buy back all those guitars he smashed in the 60's! Die hard Who fans won't be happy about part of the deal.....
