The Who Prove Live Credentials With New Compilation

Rarities galore on download only album

The Who have released a brand new live compilation ahead of their high profile headline slot at the Superbowl Halftime show in a couple of weeks.

Greatest Hits Live is released via iTunes and features 22 tracks taken from across the band’s career. Much of the material is rare and ranges from a BBC session in 1965 to a show in Brisbane in 2009.
