Live at Hull 1970 is a live album by the English rock band The Who. Their performance at Hull City Hall on 15 February 1970 was recorded with the Pye Mobile Unit by Bob Pridden.[3][4] In a few songs the bass guitar sound was either badly recorded or lost due to technical problems. For these songs, the bass guitar track from the previous night's Live at Leeds performance was matched to the Hull performance, allowing the show to be presented in full.[5]
