Sell Out Edition Limitée Coffret Super Deluxe

Description

After the successes of the reissues of My Generation, Tommy, and Quadrophenia, here is the highly anticipated release of The Who Sell Out.
Released in December 1967, the album reflects the time when enormous musical upheavals were taking place and "Pop" was transforming into "Rock."
The Who Sell Out was originally a concept album with jingles and advertisements between the songs, designed like a Radio London show. The initial idea was to sell advertising space on the album (Jaguar cars, Coca-Cola, etc.). The jingles pay tribute to pirate radio stations and already expose the myths of "Pop Culture" and consumer society.
The homage to Pop Art is evident both in the advertising jingles and in the iconic design of the cover.
