The Who Sell Out (Music) | comment |
The Who Sell Out is the third studio album by The Who, released in 1967. A Concept Album, it is formatted as a collection of unrelated songs with fake commercials and public service announcements in between them. Part of the intended irony of the title was that The Who were making real commercials around this time.Lawsuits followed the album's release due to the mention of real-world commercial interests in the faux commercials and on the album covers, and by the makers of the actual Radio London jingles, who claimed the Who used them without permission.The album is best remembered for "Mary Anne with the Shaky Hand" and "I Can See for Miles", the latter which indirectly inspired The Beatles song "Helter Skelter" on The White Album. Paul McCartney had read that The Who had written the "heaviest rock song ever" and, without having heard the actual song, felt that they should top that. And they pretty much did. | |

Self-Plagiarism | |
The Who Sell Out (Music) / int_116f6f1c | comment |
Self-Plagiarism: In Tommy they used an instrumental tune from "Rael 1" as a leitmotif. The song "Glow Girl", recorded during the The Who Sell Out sessions but unreleased for a number of years, ends with a short song fragment ("it's a girl, Mrs. Walker, it's a girl") that is recycled almost verbatim as the second track of Tommy. | |

Face on the Cover: Pete Townsend applies Odorono deodorant, while Roger Daltrey sits in a bathtub full of Heinz baked beans on the front cover. The back cover depicts Keith Moon applying Medac from an oversized tube and John Entwistle in a leopard-skin suit, squeezing a blonde woman in a similar outfit with one arm and a teddy bear with the other. | |

Step Up to the Microphone | |
The Who Sell Out (Music) / int_51f90774 | comment |
Step Up to the Microphone/Vocal Tag Team: The album is a very collaborative work vocally, as opposed to its more Roger Daltrey-focused predecessors and successors. Listening to it, one wouldn't even necessarily assume that Daltrey was the band's designated lead singer. Pete Townshend sings lead vocals on "Odorono", "Our Love Was", "Can't Reach You" and "Sunrise". He also has co-lead vocals on "Mary Anne With the Shaky Hands," "Tattoo," and "Relax". John Entwistle sings lead vocals on "Heinz Baked Beans", and "Medac", and co-leads on "Silas Stingy" with Daltrey. For the 1995 reissue, Townshend sings lead on "Rael 2" and "Glittering Girl," the latter of which contains a verse sung by Entwistle; Townshend and Entwistle also sing alternating sections of "Jaguar." Daltrey and Townshend duet on the electric version of "Mary Anne With the Shaky Hands" and "Glow Girl," while Entwistle and Keith Moon sing together on "Girl's Eyes". | |

Sell-Out: This album is a massive lampshade of the group's numerous commercial endeavours during the late 1960s, including recording radio promos for Coca-Cola, Heinz Baked Beans, a car dealer, a maker of guitar strings, the United States Air Force, and anyone else they felt would reimburse them for their trouble. The original plan was to entice the companies mentioned on the album to pay for the references. No one was interested, but the band was blatant enough about it that many listeners took the album as intentional satire. | |

No Ending: "Rael 1" was intended as the first part of a longer "mini-opera" in the same vein as "A Quick One, While He's Away." Only Pete Townshend didn't finish writing it, so the story ends abruptly before it really has a chance to get started. | |

The Who Sell Out (Music) / int_f511ea9b | comment |
Product Placement: Real life products are shown on the album cover. The track "Armenia City In The City/Heinz Baked Beans" name-drops "Heinz". Several tracks follow a pattern of a commercial by telling a story and then naming the fake product in the last stanzas, for instance in "Odorono" "Medac" is another song that appears to be an advert. It's about an adolescent who suffers from acne. | |
