The Who - Overture From Tommy

This is, you guessed it, the Overture From Tommy. It basically is many of the songs from the movie made into a medley. This was in the movie and on the soundtrack. EDIT - this was not in the movie - it was just stuck onto the soundtrack

The image you have displayed is from their remake.

I too am a big fan of Pete's use of synthesizers. The way he played and arranged guitar, voice, synth, piano and occasional banjo and such, I find it amazing. He's waaaay more than a guitar smasher and windmill arm swinger. I like the 1975 arrangements of Tommy very much; it's as if Tommy was Quadrophenia-ized.

I bought the LP from the Columbia Record Club. It counted as two selections. I had the Overture on the 45. Ironically, this was the same 45 coupling for the Who's original version. If I recall correctly, the Overture was added to the CD release. One scary thing is that I remember most of the songs. If Roger and Pete got sick, I could substitute. May they never ask!

che ricordi, Tommy very much!

This version of OVERTURE, was not originally excluded from the LP. Few people knew it existence since it was only released as a by then 45 single with SEE ME FEEL ME as A side. This is OVERTURE differs a lot from the original WHO version. Both versions are very good. A third version you can find on the LONDON SYNPHONY ORCHESTA version. This version was recorded and played solely by PETE TOWNSHEND !!
