I was just watching the AXS special on the making of “Who’s Next” last night. I love the Who, and this is just one of many reasons why. This is how all loudmouthed leftists who forget their manners should be treated.
Since you have “DFW” in your name, I wonder if you’ve ever heard Bo Roberts’ (mornings, 92.5-FM in Dallas) play the tape he has of the Who doing a medley of their songs? It sounds like it’s circa the “Live At Leeds” period, with the same sort of raw edge and improvisation, only cut in a studio, maybe a live appearance on the BBC or something. It’s absolutely incredible. Listening to that makes you realize just how talent-deficient most of today’s “music stars” really are.
Phew, been a long time I’ve listened to music on the radio, as I’m a P1.*
*That’s a listener of “The Ticket”, the local sports radio station here in DFW.
I’ve listened to a lot of Pete Townshend demos, it’s amazing how high quality the demos are, in some cases I like them more than the finished product.
