Live at Leeds is The Who's first live album, and is their only live album that was released while the group was still recording and performing regularly. The album has been reissued on several occasions and in several different formats. In 2003, the album was ranked number 170 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 greatest albums of all time.
After releasing Tommy in mid-1969 The Who went on an extended world tour to promote it, and returned to England at year's end with a desire to release a live album from the tour. However, the band balked at the prospect of listening to approximately 80 hours of accumulated recordings to decide which would make the best album and it was rumoured that the tapes were subsequently burned to prevent bootlegging. Doubt has been cast on this rumour by Daltrey, but was supported by Townshend during an interview (broadcast by the radio station Planet Rock on 11 February 2010) celebrating the 40th anniversary of the original recording.
Two shows were consequently scheduled, one at the University of Leeds and the other in Hull, for the expressed purpose of recording and releasing a live album. The shows were performed on February 14 (Leeds) and 15th (Hull) 1970, but technical problems with the recordings from the Hull gig — the bass guitar had not been recorded on some of the songs — made it all the more necessary for the show from the 14th to be released as the album…
Anyone who owned the vinyl copy of Live at Leeds will barely recognize its digitized namesake. While the 1970 record offered a mere six selections, the 1995 CD reissue is fleshed out with a full 14 tracks. Reveling in the augmented Leeds prompts one to wonder why in the name of "Heaven and Hell" they didn't put out a double record in the first place. No matter. This Live at Leeds is actually superior to its revered predecessor. The Who are at their Maximum R&B peak here, bringing an almost proto-metal aggression to supercharged covers of "Young Man Blues", "Summertime Blues", and "Shakin' All Over" (all from the original record) and treating fans to originals familiar ("I Can't Explain", "My Generation", "Magic Bus") and less known ("Heaven and Hell", "Tattoo", "A Quick One"). An improved-upon classic.~ Steven Stolder, amazon.com![The Who - Live At Leeds (1970) [2xSHM-CD Japanese Deluxe Edition '2008] Repost](https://pixhost.icu/avaxhome/48/4c/00144c48_medium.jpeg)

THE WHO Live At Leeds (2008 Japanese exclusive limited 'Deluxe Edition' 33-track 2-disc SHM-CD album set, featuring the legendary album recorded live at Leeds University on 14th February 1970, plus bonus disc featuring the complete 'Tommy' rock opera almost in its entirety! Superbly presented in replica mini LP-style card stapled gatefold sleeve with 12 mini replica paper inserts + replica blue Polydor wraparound obi strip, English photo/info booklet, Japanese/English lyric booklet, individually numbered card insert, plus 3 alternate sleeve designs: Spanish ['En Directo En Leeds', using the iconic Townshend image from the 'Maximum R & B' posters, fully laminated with pinched spine], Brazilian [fully laminated, full colour live shot] & Columbian [matt card with another unique live image]; these items are then housed in a clear plastic slipcase with wraparound obi strip.
Rushed out in 1970 as a way to bide time as the Who toiled away on their follow-up to Tommy, Live at Leeds wasn't intended to be the definitive Who live album, and many collectors maintain that the band had better shows available on bootlegs. But those shows weren't easily available whereas Live at Leeds was, and even if this show may not have been the absolute best, it's so damn close to it that it would be impossible for anybody but aficionados to argue. Here, the Who sound vicious – as heavy as Led Zeppelin but twice as volatile – as they careen through early classics with the confidence of a band that finally achieved acclaim but had yet to become preoccupied with making art. In that regard, this recording – in its many different forms – may have been perfectly timed in terms of capturing the band at a pivotal moment in its history. Read more

In 1995, the album was reissued for the first time on Compact Disc. The remastered CD includes more songs than the original vinyl edition, as well as song introductions and other banter that had been edited out of the original release. At some points, notably "My Generation", the original vocal parts were replaced by new overdubs by Daltrey.
"Fortune Teller" and "Young Man Blues" are R&B tunes that were a standard part of The Who's stage repertoire at the time. "Shakin' All Over" is a cover of a hit by pioneering early 1960s British rocker Johnny Kidd and "Summertime Blues" is a cover of an Eddie Cochran song.
"My Generation" is drawn out into an almost sixteen minute medley including "See Me, Feel Me" / "Listening To You", "Underture", the instrumental riff from the end of "Naked Eye", "The Seeker," and a number of other mostly unfamiliar themes. "Magic Bus" is drawn out to seven and a half minutes (9:42 on the un-edited recording). At one point on the vinyl album, there is a moment in "Magic Bus" that sounds like the music is being played backwards. The rest of the tracks are fairly straightforward renditions of the original songs, albeit with a consistent hard-rock power trio sound rather than any attempt to re-create the various studio sounds of their original recordings.
A similar concert from later the same year was released in 1996 as Live at the Isle of Wight Festival 1970, along with a film of the same event titled Listening to You: The Who at the Isle of Wight Festival.
In 2001, the album was released again as a part of the Universal Deluxe Edition series. The Deluxe Edition includes more chat between the songs, and a near-complete performance of Tommy on a second disc, which features every song except "Cousin Kevin", "Underture", "Sensation", and "Welcome" which were not played at the concert. At the concert Tommy was performed between "A Quick One, While He's Away" and "Summertime Blues"; the Deluxe Edition of the remastered CD moves "Amazing Journey/Sparks" to their appropriate place during the Tommy performance, and includes everything that was performed at the concert albeit edited.
An excerpt from this recording of "We're Not Gonna Take It"—titled "See Me Feel Me/Listening to You" — was also previously released on Thirty Years Of Maximum R&B.
During the concert, "Summertime Blues", "Shakin' All Over", "My Generation", and "Magic Bus" were played after the Tommy set, but for easier listening the Deluxe Edition devoted the entire second disc to the Tommy set, and moved "My Generation" and "Magic Bus" out of order to the end of the first disc. During 1970, the regular Who concert set was set up this way, but an album with a 1970 concert in true order wasn't available until 1996 when the official Live at the Isle of Wight Festival 1970 album was released.
