The Who have announced the impending release of all 11 of the band's studio LPs to 180-gram vinyl.

The albums, along with the two-LP vinyl edition of the recent hits collection The Who Hits 50!, drop March 24.

On their website the band wrote that "there is no more significant a milestone in rock music than the 50th anniversary," adding, "through the decades.

The Who redefined rock music as we know it and their influence continues in all areas of popular culture to this day."

On April 7, the band will release The Brunswick Singles 1965-66, which they've billed as "the first in a series of 7" singles box sets."
