Me too. It was that album that helped me realize that Peter Townsend (and indeed most rock gods) are deeply troubled people.

I think Tommy (Cousin Kevin and Uncle Ernie) pretty much was your proof right there.

I'm right around that age myself. Ahhh nostalgia.

Rough boys, under the sheets, want to bite and kiss you nailed it down as far as Townsend was concerned.

Pictures of Lily struck me funny the first time I heard it too. It took me a while to put it all together (Pictures of Lily, Tommy, Quadrophenia, Rough Boys, etc.). It all added up to someone who was probably molested as a child. When he said he knew how it felt to be "loved like a woman," that was enough. I put all the old Who vinyl into storage, never to be heard again. Someday, I hope to sell them to an aging hippie for some serious money.
