Sealed brand new repressing of this great album. Made in the EU.
The Who by Numbers is the seventh studio album by English rock band The Who, released on 3 October 1975 in the United Kingdom through Polydor Records, and on 25 October 1975 in the United States by MCA Records. It was named the tenth-best album of the year in The Village Voice Pazz & Jop critics poll.[1]te Townshend has claimed that the band recorded practically every song he had written for The Who By Numbers, partially due to a writer's block that he was experiencing at the time.[2] The songs on the album were, for the most part, more introspective and personal than many other songs that the band had released. Townshend had his 30th birthday in May 1975 and was struggling with the idea of being too old to play rock-and-roll and that the band were losing their relevance.[3] He began to feel disenchanted with the music industry, a feeling that he carried into his songs.
