| Currently Tommy is now released as a deluxe 2-disc hybrid [[Super Audio CD|SACD]] with a 5.1 multi-channel mix. This was done utilizing master tapes that were thought long lost. When Tommy was first released, a "sweetened" master tape was used incorporating echo effects and doubling the vocal harmonies. This bare-bones master is said to have a more warm and natural sound to give a more "live" feel. Many critics have hailed this release to be the more definitive edition. The re-mastering was done under the supervision of Townshend and also includes some outtakes and other cuts during the same sessions. One cut called "Dogs-Part 2" that was only previously available as the B-side of the Pinball Wizard single is included. | | Currently Tommy is now released as a deluxe 2-disc hybrid [[Super Audio CD|SACD]] with a 5.1 multi-channel mix.
