The Who: The Sell Out Interview

The Who: The Sell Out Interview

“We were searching for a way forward, a way to be more than just a singles band,” The Who’s Roger Daltrey tells Apple Music about their 1967 LP The Who Sell Out, which just received the deluxe treatment with over 100 outtakes, alternate versions, and demo recordings. “We had the intelligence to recognize that within the abilities of Pete Townshend, we had someone really unique in his songwriting ability.” In their interview with Zane Lowe, Daltrey and Townshend discuss how the album pays homage to ’60s pirate radio stations in the UK, reveal which companies were (and weren’t) on board with their pop-art concept, and celebrate their lifetime commitment to keeping the band together.
