The Who - Rough Mix (1977)

 

Side A:
1. Parade - Roger Daltrey
2. My Baby Gives It Away - Pete Townshend
3. You Can Be So Mean - John Entwistle
4. Avenging Annie - Roger Daltrey
5. Keep Me Turning - Pete Townshend

Side B:
6. Leon - Roger Daltrey
7. Misunderstood - Pete Townshend
8. Drowning - John Entwistle
9. Don't Worry Baby - Keith Moon
10. Say It Ain't So, Joe - Roger Daltrey

This is the second of three albums I'm planning on making by combining tracks from members of the Who's solo albums. All of these albums were released between the years of 1975 and 1977. Keith Moon released his only solo album during this period meaning they all released at least one album so I had at least four albums I could use.

For this I'm using Roger Daltrey's One of the Boys, Pete Townshend's Rough Mix, John Entwistle's Mad Dog, and Keith Moon's Two Sides of the Moon. In our first album in this series, John released two albums around this time, but this time Roger released two albums around this time. I figured both of them would've sounded alike so I just picked One of the Boys. But John's album sounded like '50s rock and roll like his one before it, and Keith's album was marred by drug problems, so I named this album after Pete's album cause it was rough trying to mix it together.

Devo - Miracle Witness Hour (1977)

 


Side A:
1. Booji Boy's Funeral
2. Golden Energy
3. Midget
4. Uglatto
5. Stop Look and Listen
6. Goo Goo Itch
7. Dogs of Democracy

Side B:
8. Fountain of Filth
9. Let's Go
10. Bottled Up
11. Recombo DNA
12. Bicentennial Birthday
13. Be Stiff
14. Social Fools

This combines all the tracks from both Hardcore Devo compilations that are from 1976 and 1977. I wasn't sure if I would have enough material to include so I also used Recombo DNA from the compilation of the same name as well as the Be Stiff EP versions of Be Stiff and Social Fools because those tracks never made it onto albums and those are my favorite versions of them.

Bob Dylan - Great White Wonder (1977)

 

Side A:
1. Bonnie Ship the Diamond
2. All American Boy
3. Get Your Rocks Off
4. Johnny Todd
5. Tupelo
6. One for the Road

Side B:
7. I'm Your Teenage Prayer
8. Four Strong Winds
9. The French Girl
10. Joshua's Gone Barbados
11. Baby Ain't That Fine
12. Rock, Salt, and Nails

This is a sequel to my single album version of his Basement Tapes double album from 1975. With the release of The Bootleg Series Vol. 11, we have a whole slew of songs we could use. Also Dylan never released an album in 1977, so I thought maybe he could put out more tracks from the tapes for its 10 year anniversary and name it as a tribute to the bootleg that initially brought the tapes to public attention. On the box set, the tracks from the original album appear on discs 3 and 4, and there's a couple new tracks on there we could use for our sequel. Though some were unfinished like "The Hills of Mexico" and some were just short like "Down on Me". To fill it out we can include tracks from disc 2 which is where “Tiny Montgomery" originates from. 

The Who - Empty Glass (1981)
