The Who (Deluxe)

So, they're not the same band from 1970? Who is? Thank goodness they've evolved some. "Hope I die before I get old..." Really not a sentiment I can embrace. Love the early stuff, still blast Live at Leeds, Quadrophenia, Who by Numbers...Like Face Dances too, it's different. Like Pete's solo stuff.

Saw them with Kenny Jones on the Face Dances tour. He's no Keith Moon, but Who IS? Saw them do the entire Quadrophenia with Zak, who is amazing. Thoroughly enjoyed it.

I don't think, "Everything since is a vain attempt to recapture the glory days". Pete and Roger probably don't care to go there.
The Who Rock, still.

Like Mick Jagger and Keith Richards they are survivors. Quite a few did not. It seems that humans are more intense when they are younger. They smooth out with age. I guess I prefer the intensity of youth when it comes to music, rock at least. 

People need to think seriously about what kind of world we’re going to leave Keith Richards.

They smooth out with age

Pretty sure it is just a case of, you know, getting old!
Trust me I know the feeling.

Who’s Next was my first album.
And think Magic Bus from Live at Leeds the best song ever, to blast.
Can still remember most of the lyrics to Tommy.

Finally managed to see them in 2009.
All I ever really wanted to see was Pete’s windmill. Left happy. And with a 13 min ‘Won’t Get Fooled Again’ I was in heaven.

Quite like Endless Wire, but listening to that is a totally different experience.

Will get to this new album before the New Year.
