A Quick One by The Who

Hello Friends! Today we're taking our first Mixology look at The Who, with their 1966 LP A Quick One. Following up on their first LP, this album featured far more original contributions from every member of the group, culminating in Pete Townshend's epic 'A Quick One While He's Away'. Originally released in the UK only in mono, the album received a mostly stereo mix in the US and across Europe, and these are the mixes we'll be looking at today. Many of the tracks were then remixed in 2003, mirroring the original stereo mixes, with a few quality of life improvements here and there. So, with most tracks having 3 mixes to cover, this isn't going to be a quick one, but let's run run run and see if Boris the Spider has the answers!

Happy Listening,

Frederick
