Maybe he was just possessed.

AC/DC admits that in an interview.

It’s weird. Drummers do tend to be the quiet ones don’t they?

“Had Enough” and “Sister Disco” are representative of a period in time. The tracks remain potent.

I saw a documentary of the “Who’s Next” album. In it, Townsend mentioned “teenage wasteland” was referring to the stupidity of youth being wasted.

If that description isn’t Abby Hoffman on stage wrecked on LSD, I don’t know what it is.

Good stuff. I just now did some sleuthing. Same dude wrote both songs. But he later told Pete that The Who got the name wrong on Sell Out. “Armenian City in the Sky” was supposed to be “I Am An Ear Sitting In The Sky”. Apparenty it was based on some painting. Ahhh...... the Sixties.

Sell Out is my favorite Who album, the jingles in between the songs were great.

John Lennon wrote the song "John Sinclair".

UNTIL this FR post, I didn't know who he was.

Or why he was so important to rock stars of the era.
