Recorded in 1965-82 at Pie Sound Studio in London.

Scoop is a compilation album by Pete Townshend containing demos of various released and unreleased songs by The Who, and demos of entirely new material.

“No one in rock & roll has spent more time revealing the motivations for making music, the private energies and obsessions that drive one to it or the intimate details of the process than Pete Townshend. For that reason alone, Scoop, a two-record set of previously unissued home and studio demo recordings stretching back to 1965, is essential Townshend, the ultimate unburdening of a chronic confessor. A logical extension of the passionate searching and naked, rock-star, menopausal fear displayed on “All the Best Cowboys Have Chinese Eyes” and his earnest elder-punk-statesman soapboxing on the Who’s “It’s Hard”, this album is an open invitation into the root experience of songwriting, a rare glimpse of those secret explosions when words first collide with music.” - Rolling Stone.

This Classic Record LP was remastered at Sterling Sound Studio, using pure analogue components only, from the original analogue studio tapes through to the cutting head and pressed on two 200-gram virgin vinyl LPs at RTI.
