In 1971, The Who were planning on releasing a double album rock opera called Lifehouse, similar to Tommy 2 years before it and Quadrophenia 2 years after it. For whatever reason it was cut down to a single album and retitled Who’s Next? Fans have been speculating on what tracks would’ve been on a double album version for years, including Pete Townshend who worked on the unreleased tracks long after the album came out. One user I saw even made double and triple versions of the album. Regardless of story continuity, I wanted to see if I could make a second album from these outtakes. One resource is the Lifehouse Chronicles which includes a couple acoustic demos that I’m opting to exclude. 

There was a 5 song EP that was supposed to come out in 1970 but never did. I figured if they didn't release it as an EP, they could release it as the first half of the album. Most of them would later get released on the Odds and Sods compilation, sometimes only on reissues. The second side would consist of outtakes relating to Lifehouse and other tracks from this time which Odds and Sods also partially include.
