The Who to Release Mini-Opera in July
The Who will release a limited edition 11-minute mini-opera in early July, ahead of the October release of their first studio album in 24 years, reports NME.com.
The mini-album ?Wire and Glass? is billed as one song but is split into six parts: ?Sound Round,? ?Pick Up The Peace,? ?Endless Wire,? ?We Got A Hit,? ?They Made My Dreams Come True? and ?Mirror Door.?
The upcoming rock opera recalls the Who?s 1969 album ?Tommy,? which in 2003 was ranked 96th on Rolling Stone?s 500 Greatest Albums of All Time.
?Wire and Glass? will be part of a ?longer mini-opera? on the forthcoming full-length Who album, which surviving members Pete Townshend and Roger Daltrey are currently completing.
