>>The work Entwhistle did on that album [Quadrophenia] is some of the best rock bass guitar playing ever.
>>Ever.
I’ll give that a hearty SECOND! The Real Me has some of the best rock bass ever.
I used to listen to Quadrophenia on cassette all the way though when traveling home from college for breaks. And again on the way back. All the way through, both ways.

Have a listen to “Dreaming from the Waist” bonus track on the remastered Who By Numbers CD. It’s a live recording I believe from Swansea 1976. John essentially is playing lead Guitar on the Bass simply amazing stuff.
Quadrophenia was my warm-up listening experience before going out on Friday nights in college my freshman year. I’ve gotten to see them several times since 1980, but the full Quad shows in 1996 and 1997 were my favorites.
