A month ago today, we told you that Eagle Rock Entertainment are releasing the live concert film Face The Face by Pete Townshend's Deep End as a DVD and CD set this month - on September 16th 2016 to be exact. This is the first official release of the band's third and final full length concert, which was captured by the German TV series Rockpalast at MIDEM in Cannes on January 29th 1986. We now have full ordering links for you, which we know some of you have been waiting for.
The recording features David Gilmour on lead guitar throughout and the set includes a mix of Townshend and Who classics such as Face The Face, Secondhand Love, Rough Boys, Give Blood, Won't Get Fooled Again, Behind Blue Eyes, Pinball Wizard and more.
As on the existing Deep End in Brixton live disc, Gilmour is included performing Blue Light from his 1984 album, About Face.
Around of the time of the Deep End shows, Townshend had this to say about Gilmour: "Among players — particularly among British players — he's incredibly highly rated — adored, I'd say. And he has a way of putting incredible feeling into everything that he does. I suppose technically, he's very good. But that’s not the important thing. The important thing is the way that he plays."
Here are the ordering links - using these will give a small but vital contribution to the running costs of Brain Damage, without costing you a penny/cent extra, and we really appreciate it!
