THE WHO 1st LP MY GENERATION - BRUNSWICK LAT 8616



THE WHO 1965 1st LP MY GENERATION 

BRUNSWICK LAT 8616 - MONO


Although I have a few early who LP's this is the first copy of  "My Generation" I have had my hands on. Whilst the condition of the LP is far from mint the audio quality is still great, yes it has a good number of clicks but you get a real feel for the 60's MOD sound with this LP and of course some of the classic WHO tracks. Of course the title track but also "The kids are alright" "The Ox" & "I'm a man" - The WHO at their stunning best in the swinging 60's.
The LP is now live on ebay but only for a few days & finishes on Friday night, full details can be found via this link
THE WHO - MY GENERATION
(Nice lads but shame about the haircuts)  - For the winner of the auction there is also a free Roger Daltrey mounted photo sporting the same barnet (Barnet fair = hair)


The Brunswick label is black with silver text and unusually has a grooved edge and is not completely flat. Released in 1965 the LP has become the holy grail for WHO collectors, with record collector listing mint copies at £400 but copies can hit the market at nearer £600 occasionally. This copy will fetch far less due to heavy wear but it is still a great piece of ROCK VINYL memorabilia.
