The Who have revealed ‘Be Lucky’, their first new song in eight years – click below to listen.
The song sees the band reference both AC/DC and Daft Punk in their lyrics, with a robot style auto-tune effect used after the line about the French duo. ‘Be Lucky’ appears on forthcoming compilation album ‘Who Hits 50’ and is their first new material since 2006 album ‘Endless Wire’. The track was recorded with bassist Pino Pallodino, Zak Starkey on drums, and keyboard-player Mick Talbot.
Later this year The Who will embark on their 50th anniversary tour. The nine-date tour, dubbed ‘The Who Hits 50’, will encompass songs dating back to the band’s original name of The High Numbers. Starting in November, it features hits and songs which guitarist Pete Townshend described as “hits, picks, mixes and misses”.
