Rock band The Who`s classic album The Who Sell Out will be featured on Sky Arts tonight [on Freeview channel 11] at 9pm with interviews with Roger Daltry and Pete Townsend.

This album from 1967 featured ads and jingles from pirate radio station Radio London. To re-create this, Sky filmed the dj sequences aboard Radio Caroline`s ship Ross Revenge [formerly broadcasting in its pirate days from the North Sea and now legit broadcasting from River Blackwater].

 

As a huge fan of The Who, I`m looking forward to this and I`ll be watching.

Be great to see Roger and Pete and film of the Ross Revenge - successor of the Mi-Amigo yahoo 

 

Will other Who fans - including @jonsie and @Cleoriff - be watching ??

I have it set to record @Mi-Amigo 

Probably the most psychedelic album The Who every produced!

Did you notice it's preceded by John Lennon's Classic Album  Plastic Ono Band at 8pm?
