“Quadraphenia was sheer genius from start to finish.”

I didn’t care for it. I thought the band peaked with “Who’s Next,” “Tommy” was good and they had a few good tunes before and after those albums.

I think they’re worthy of being in the R&R Hall of Fame, but I wish they had been more prolific.

“I didn’t care for it.“

The work Entwhistle did on that album is some of th best rock bass guitar playing ever.

Ever.

I thought Tommy was a great idea, but not sure that The Who was really up to the challenge, though it was still an excellent album. I think “Whos Next” was really their masterpiece.

C'mon man! Lyrics like these:

i went back to my mother
I said I'm crazy Ma help me
She said I know how it feels son
'Cause it runs in the family

Fantastic!
