It’s a glorious blend of classic powerful Who instrumentation, melodic harmonies, satirical lyrical imagery crystallized for what was only the group’s third album. The album’s ambition and scope is unrivalled by the Who, or any other act from that period.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWithin the bold concept, were a batch of fabulous and diverse songs. “I Can See for Miles,” a top ten hit at the time, is a Who classic. “Rael,” a Townshend “mini-opera” with musical motifs that reappeared in Tommy and the psychedelic blast of “Armenia City In The Sky” and “Relax” are among the very best material anyone wrote during the 1960s\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOne of the most extraordinary albums of any era, The Who Sell Out is The Who’s last “pop” album. Two years later came Tommy – a double concept album about a deaf, dumb and blind kid.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Who Sell Out was originally planned by Pete Townshend and the band’s managers Kit Lambert \u0026amp; Chris Stamp, as a loose concept album including jingles and commercials linking the songs stylised as a pirate radio broadcast. This concept was born out of necessity as their label and management wanted a new album and Townshend felt that he didn’t have enough songs.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe ground-breaking original plan for Sell Out was to sell advertising space on the album but instead the band opted for writing their own jingles paying tribute to pirate radio stations and to parody an increasingly consumerist society.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe homage to pop-art is evident in both the advertising jingles and the iconic sleeve design created by David King who was the art director at the Sunday Times, and Roger Law who invented the Spitting Image TV show. The sleeve features four advertising images, taken by the renowned photographer David Montgomery, of each band member Odorono deodorant (Pete Townshend), Medac spot cream (Keith Moon), Charles Atlas (John Entwistle) and Roger Daltrey \u0026amp; Heinz baked beans. The story goes that Roger Daltrey caught pneumonia from sitting in the cold beans for too long.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArmenia City in the Sky\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeinz Baked Beans\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMary Anne with the Shaky Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOdorono\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTattoo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOur Love Was\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Can See for Miles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Can't Reach You\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMedac\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRelax\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSilas Stingy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSunrise\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRael (+ Track Records Run-Off Groove)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePictures of Lily (Original U K Track Single Mix)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDoctor, Doctor (Original U K Track Single Mix)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Last Time (Original U K Track Single Mix)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnder My Thumb (Original U K Track Single Mix)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Can See for Miles (Original U K Track Single Mix)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMary Anne with the Shaky Hand (Original U S Decca Single Mix)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSomeone's Coming (Original U S Decca Single Mix)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnused Radio London Ad \/ Early Morning Cold Taxi (1967 Mono Mix)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnused Radio London Bulletin Link \/Jaguar (1967 Mono Mix)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnused Radio London Ad \/Tattoo (Early Alternate Mono Mix)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRael (Talentmasters Studio, New York Early Rough Mix)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSunn Amps Promo Spots\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreat Shakes Ad\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArmenia City in the Sky\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeinz Baked Beans\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMary Anne with the Shaky Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOdorono\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTattoo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOur Love Was\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Can See for Miles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Can't Reach You\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMedac\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRelax\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSilas Stingy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSunrise\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRael\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRael Naïve (Complete with Organ Coda Ending)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMary Anne with the Shaky Hand (U S Single Version)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSomeone's Coming\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSummertime Blues\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGlittering Girl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEarly Morning Cold Taxi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGirl's Eyes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCoke After Coke\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSodding About\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThings Go Better with Coke\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHall of the Mountain King\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJaguar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRael (Remake; Ibc Version) Track Records Outro\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"101","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":50571849400616,"sku":"60257711427","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0933\/3833\/7576\/files\/3945315-2684845.jpg?v=1763989700","url":"https:\/\/waterloorecords.com\/products\/who-who-sell-out-dlx-cd-60257711427","provider":"Waterloo Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
