Substitute/ Waltz for a Pig

This top-tier Who single didn't appear on any contemporary Who album... it was a non-LP single. This first release has the uncensored version of the song, with the lyric "I look all white but my dad was black". A later release on Atco 6509 changes the lyrics to something less controversial. Note: This copy has a small drillhole and comes in a vintage Atco Records factory sleeve. It grades strong EX across the board (Labels, Vinyl, Audio). The audio has no distortion but has a half-dozen light "pops" at the beginning... they're gone by the time the vocals start.
