  MAYBE the track info is incorrect. Found a post at http://www.geetarz.org - quote: "Track 4
Leaving Here is from the first Shel Talmy sessions, as The Who, recorded later in Feb/March `65. The info attributed for
this track on the box set from where it was lifted here, was wrong. The live tracks are incorrect, too. They come from
the Railway Hotel, Wealdstone, London 11th August 1964"
  
  
  
  Artist Biography by Richie
Unterberger, allmusic.com
  
  For just a few months in 1964 (approximately July to October), the Who
changed their name to the High Numbers, releasing one single under that billing before reverting to the more inventive
and appropriate "the Who." The name change resulted from their association with Pete Meaden, a mod who briefly managed
them in mid-1964 (Helmut Gorden was also involved in their management with Meaden for much of that time). Meaden was
instrumental in getting the band to gear their music and image more toward the mod movement, and this was reflected in
his choice of the name "the High Numbers," which arose from mod slang.
  
  the High Numbers did a single for
Fontana in July, "I'm the Face"/"Zoot Suit." Both sides of the 45 were written by Meaden, the A-side loosely adapted
from Slim Harpo's "Got Love If You Want It," a popular cover choice among British bands of the time (including the Kinks
and the Yardbirds). The flipside is often said to be similarly based on "Country Fool," an obscure New Orleans R&B
number by the Showmen, although the resemblance to a previous song is not as blatant as it is with "I'm the Face." The
lyrics, too, were rather blunt pastiches of mod jargon and sloganeering. Relatively little of the Who's personality came
through on the disc. Pete Townshend's guitar in particular bore little resemblance to his power chords and searing
feedback on the Who's 1965 singles; the leads on the single were so jazzy and thin that one wonders if they were, in
fact, the work of a session musician. In fact, "Zoot Suit" rather overshadows the routine R&B of the A-side, with
its unusual minor-key tune and rushed tempo. In any case, the single went virtually unnoticed upon initial release. The
group did record two R&B-soul covers at the same session, Bo Diddley's "Here 'Tis" and Eddie Holland's "Leaving
Here," that showed them to better advantage, if still a long way off from their great 1965 power pop recordings. Both of
those songs eventually found official release on archival Who compilations.
  
  the High Numbers wisely
changed their name back to the Who by November 1964, by which time they had also changed management, replacing Meaden
with Kit Lambert and Chris Stamp. Whether this was intentional or not, it also erased any stigma that might have been
attached to them as the result of the High Numbers' flop 45, and allowed them to present their first 1965 single, "I
Can't Explain," as the debut of a brand-new band, the Who. Very rare for a decade, "I'm the Face" and 'Zoot Suit"
appeared on Who compilation albums in the '70s, and later on CD.
