truancy_petet

Truancy: The Very Best Of..  is a new Pete Townshend compilation (announced on his 70th birthday!) that signals the beginning of an extensive reissue programme. The solo catalogue will be ‘remastered and reworked’ by Universal Music with releases scheduled well into 2016.

This compilation contains 17 tracks, all newly remastered at Abbey Road Studios. When it comes to producing solo work Townshend admits “I am a bit of a dabbler I’m afraid. I am as interested in building, developing and playing with recording studios as I am with making music.” Despite this, Pete has found the time to come up with two brand new, previously unheard songsGuantanamo and How Can I Help You, both of which are included here along with a selection of highlights and singles from his nine solo albums

Truancy: The Very Best Of Pete Townshend is released on 29 June 2015.
