The Who to Release 'The Who Hits 50' Compilation Featuring First New Music in Eight Years

In celebration of their 50th anniversary, rock legends The Who will release a two-disc, career-spanning compilation album titled The Who Hits 50 Oct. 27, radio.com reported.

The album will include some of The Who’s biggest hits, such as “My Generation,” “Pinball Wizard,” “Baba O’Riley” and “Who Are You,” along with some deeper cuts and more obscure tracks from throughout the band’s career.

Perhaps most exciting of all is a new song written specifically for the compilation, titled “Be Lucky,” which will be the first new music released by The Who since their 2006 album Endless Wire.

The Who will also be embarking on a 50th anniversary tour to coincide with the compilation, which has been rumored to be the band’s final tour, though singer Roger Daltrey insists The Who will "stop touring ... before we stop playing as a band."
