... Hair (3:46) We now reach the start of the story. This song is a counterpoint between the rather plaintive and vulnerable verses sung by Townsend and the harder, driven double tracked choruses sung by Daltrey. The background features a driving drum tempo and piano riffs. It terminates in a fictitious news bulletin from a background radio (read by John Curle - a BBC Radio 3 announcer of the time). The Punk And The Godfather (5:10) This track starts again with a volley of classical Townshend 'Slash Chords' and c...more

I have been an admirer of the writings of Pete Townshend for many years. I have lived with and listened to the music of The Who since the late 1960s.

It is a work that fascinated and moved me then and it is something which has travelled with me through my own varied experiences since then.

Well bang me silly and call me RANDY if this aint one of the best goddarn cotton pickin albums i aint ever damn heard. This album is totally 'mod-a-licous' AND IT RULES. I am telling you it just reeks of plain absolute awesomeness. It makes me hark back to days when i was younger, and in fact not born. Maybe i was born in the wrong era - WHATEVER - but i still love this crap. Ya cant beat it, from the first coupla super cool tracks, to the epicness of ...of...well others....god i dont even know the names of the songs cos it doesnt matter - you just listen to the album start to finish all day!!!! Now one track i really do know well is ... Read the complete review
