Looking for the BEST Version of Quadrophenia?


HI, I am looking for the best sounding version of the LP Quadrophenia by The Who. Has anyone compared versions such as Japanese, German, UK, USA, Classic Records (reissue)?

Jaybo, what is the date of the latest Universal cd. I've seen a cd dated 1996, is that the latest and greatest?
I have the orig Track UK, which some people felt is the best. There is a thread on Stevehoffman's site with the stamper #'s.
anyone heard the japanese version?

btw, where the hell do you find all these diff versions? i'm struggling.

i just got a guitar. its b/c of pete.
Rhyno,

I was lucky enough to score the Track version here in NYC many years when everyone was unloading their vinyl to local record stores as they rushed to change over to CD.

I strongly suggest you don't model yourself after Pete. Otherwise you'll be likely to end up a used car jingle writer/kiddie porn "researcher" and so strapped for cash you perform shows 72 hrs. after your founding bandmate dies :>
emailists, i hear ya. to me, the whole band died when moon died. its easier to think of them that way. touring w/o ox is almost comical in its money grab nature. ---and that's not the who. the who is teenage angst meeting wagner in a blender on puree.

they came to town a few months ago; i never even considered buying a ticket.

RIP, the Who.

btw, what is "the track version" you speak of.
