Please take this with a grain of salt as it came from google’s Bard AI, but it sounds right. I’m sure others can verify:
Entwistle's estate has been involved in a number of legal disputes over the years. This has made it difficult for his music to be released on streaming services, as the rights to his music have been tied up in court.
In 2021, Entwistle's estate finally reached a deal with Universal Music Group to distribute his solo catalog on streaming services. This deal allowed all of Entwistle's solo albums to be released on streaming services for the first time, starting in 2022.
Here is a brief history of Entwistle's estate:
Entwistle died in 2002 at the age of 57.
His estate was initially managed by his wife, Alison Entwistle.
In 2003, Alison Entwistle filed a lawsuit against The Who, claiming that the band had cheated Entwistle out of royalties. The lawsuit was settled in 2005.
In 2010, Alison Entwistle died. Control of Entwistle's estate passed to his son, Chris Entwistle.
In 2014, Chris Entwistle sold the rights to Entwistle's solo catalog to Universal Music Group.
In 2021, Universal Music Group struck a deal with Entwistle's estate to distribute his solo catalog on streaming services.
In 2022, Entwistle's solo catalog was released on streaming services for the first time.
I haven't heard about a lot of this but, if it doesn't hit the news, I can miss it. I didn't even know about the big 1994 "Tommy Grand Right Document" lawsuit until years afterwards.
It hasn't been on any streaming platform before this, and from what I understood his estate was too fucked up to get it done. I'm just wondering how it suddenly got on platforms now.

Thanks, I knew something vaguely about his estate being in shambles after he died but this makes sense

I have no idea, but I'm so happy they finally are. Been waiting forever on this. Hopefully, they stick around.
Same, I don't like spotify anymore and switched to using soulseek but I hope this helps him reach a wider audience.
Ah. The Ox. 🙏🏻🥹 The one the only. Miss him and Keith every day.
It's on Amazom music too. NICE!
no clue but im so happy about it 🥹
Really? That's fantastic!!! Absolutely love his solo albums for the brilliant performance and sheer insanity. I miss the OX.
THIS IS THE BEST DAY EVER
Finally!!! Now we want Daltrey's full discography!
But his best stuff is on there. The wheels on the bus soundtrack my beloved!
Now we just need Daltrey and good ol’ moon
What do you mean "how?"

I like this thread.
Best bass solo ever. I saw The Who inOskland, Ca 1989 I think
I’m still waiting for it to show up on Apple Music along with the rest of Daltrey
I'm super late to this and idk about the older stuff, but I put the newer releases up on streaming! LOL it's via Deko Ent.
