I don’t think you can have this conversation without Steve Gadd in it. Thought I posted this earlier but don’t see it on the thread. Apologies if I have posted this twice…

@goofyfoot WHO ARE YOU? No I mean how could not include 1978 "Who Are You" Just the album cover alone. I'm still deeply disturbed even after all these years (Keith Moon's chair reads "Not to be taken away") |
@danager I know Who fans are sensitive about not praising 'Who Are You' but for me, that album was a departure from what The Who did prior. Keith Moon knew he was dying, so a depressing cloud hung over the entire band. Disco was pumping steady and to me, that album reflected the Disco age. Even the Dead went Disco with 'Shakedown Street' and that bothered me deeply. I love 'Quadrophenia' and Criterion did a great job remastering the movie. 'Who Are you' seemed like a sell out by comparison, no pun intended. |
