WHO - MAGIC BUS (DECCA 1968) Japan mastering cardboard sleeve



In 1968 the Who had a surprise American hit with "Magic Bus" but had no new album to support it. So Decca Records quickly cobbled together a collection of singles, flipsides, UK-only EP tracks and earlier album cuts to create this album. Though it was a good seller for them, the group and management didn't appreciate this quick cash-in LP so it's never been given the remastering treatment like their other albums.This Japanese mini-lp replica version of Who, Magic Bus, is simply a work of art! Very beautifully designed with all the lyrics included and with a sound quality remastered 24-BIT.
This is by far the best version of this album.
