Tommy—Live at the Royal Albert Hall by The Who will be released by Eagle Rock Entertainment Oct. 13 on DVD, Blu-ray, 2-CD and 3-LP. This concert film captures the first-ever live performance by the Who of Tommy in its entirety, with two hours and 20 minutes of content. For the full set list, scroll down.

According to a press, release, “In [spring] 2017, the Who took to the stage at London’s Royal Albert Hall to perform their rock opera Tommy live in its entirety for the first time in their long and illustrious career. Previous Who live shows had always dropped two, three or four tracks from the album, but for this show, in aid of the Teenage Cancer Trust, the band would perform every track. With specially created animations on a huge screen above the stage and creative use of lighting, the concert told the story of the “deaf, dumb and blind kid who sure played a mean pinball.” In addition, at the end of Tommy, the sell-out crowd was treated to a short set of Who classics. Always a great live band, this performance was a thrilling ride from start to finish.”

Tommy—Live at the Royal Albert Hall includes these bonus features: a behind-the-scenes featurette, plus full-screen animations of both “The Acid Queen” and “Pinball Wizard” with the live performance audio.
