Live at Leeds专辑介绍
（一）在断片（四）里提到的舞台上的 The Who 之张狂情状，你只要听听 Live At Leeds 便知分晓，甚至不用观赏录像，你便可以闻到硝烟与鲜血的气味。

（二） Live At Leeds 最令人骇然的地方，是他竟然录于这么早的年份，却完成了后人难以企及的成就。在此之前，只有 Rolling Stones 的 Get Yer Ya-Ya's Out! ( 1970 )足以称为“ decent ”的摇滚实况录音（迪伦的亚伯厅靴腿不算）。我虽然也是 Stones 的崇拜者，却不能不在听完Live At Leeds之后认输。真是太恐怖了。

（三）关于 Live At Leeds 的悲惨故事（个人版）：最早买的是瀚江卡带（ 70 元）。后来升级成 CD （ MCA 旧版，音质包装印刷均劣）。 1995 年在英国游玩时赫然看到 25 周年 remaster 新版要价 15 英镑，咬牙买下去，回台北竟发现宇宙城卖$ 299 ，痛不欲生。 2000 年，日本推出限量精装仿 LP 纸壳版，完全模仿原始版本的设计，附许多缩小版的照片和单张文件，可爱极了（也贵极了），乃托日本朋友一家伙买了整套。荷包大失血。

2001 年，该死的MCA竟然推出千禧纪念精装版，把 1995 年的加量版踢进了历史的垃圾堆。此时只有骂脏话的份。若把同时购入的 180g 黑胶版也算进去，这是我的第六种版本的 Live At Leeds 。呜呼痛哉。(顺道一提，这个双CD 的官方订价是 29.97 美金！)

现在才认识 The Who 的乐迷啊，你们是幸福的。只要买这个版本就好了。

以上鬼扯完毕。补充一下权威乐评的纪录： Live At Leeds 曾经获得这些肯定（请注意，这还只是六首歌的原始版哪）：

This two-disc set should be the final word regarding the Who's February 14, 1970, performance at Leeds University. The main impetus for consumers — who may have repurchased this title in its various formats — is having the entire Tommy rock opera intact. While impressive, that performance merely scratches the surface of the multifaceted sonic and visual improvements that exist on the Live at Leeds (Deluxe Edition). The 1995 single-disc restoration of Live at Leeds more than doubled the original six-track album, which consists of all the non-Tommy material performed that evening. This deluxe edition features the Who's entire performance — albeit in a somewhat truncated form. To accommodate a seamless inclusion of Tommy onto the second disc, "Shakin' All Over," "My Generation," and "Magic Bus" have been taken from their chronologically correct place at the end of the entire show and relocated to the end of the first (read: non-Tommy disc). Even though drastic improvements augmented the 1995 release, time considerations meant that some ambience and stage dialogue between the band and the audience was still missing. With the expansion to a two-CD format, much of the previously edited material has been reinstated to reflect the actual pacing of the show more accurately. This new mix — supervised by Pete Townshend (guitar/vocal) — is an all-encompassing stereoscape which has never felt more intimidating. Although no mention is made in the information- and memorabilia-laden 28-page liner-notes booklet, vocalist Roger Daltrey performed several vocal overdubs during Tommy which are unique to this release. Although not impossible to locate, they blend surprisingly well with a recording that is fairly old. Live at Leeds (Deluxe Edition) is a must-own release for any rock & roll collection.
