This is one of the most ambitious and groundbreaking albums in rock history. Released in 1969 on Decca Records, Tommy is a rock opera that tells the story of a "deaf, dumb, and blind" boy who becomes a pinball wizard and a spiritual leader. The album is a masterpiece of songwriting and concept, with a powerful narrative and an explosive musicality that showcases The Who at their creative peak. This double-album format was a bold move at the time, but it paid off, cementing the band's legacy. For collectors, a well-preserved original pressing is a highly valuable find, representing a seminal moment in rock and roll. To own a piece of this rock opera is to own a piece of history.
