I don't believe any band pulled off the essence of a concept album like The Who. Sure there are some good ones...but The Who did it more than once.

I couldn't agree more! A real masterpiece! I took my 17 yr old daughter to see them tour this album about a month ago, because she told me it was one of two concerts she would ever want to see in her life. The legend does live on. And while it wasn't as outstanding as it was in past tours of Quadrophenia, those guys still have it!

Had to go; first date w/ my wife (still) was Tommy in 1969. Boston University homecoming. Saw the show in Nashville in December. Young Starkey was GREAT! |

That's an interesting assessment, though The Who was around before either of those bands were. Amazing work. Fleetwood Mac meets Pink Floyd, with an edge. Well the first incarnations of each started around the same time in the 60s but what I really wonder is what this person is hearing that bring name Fleetwood Mac, in any incarnation, to mind? |

On my way to get to work, my radio played "Love, reign o' me": this song resembles that song. Great song, however! |

Don't forget there is a movie "Quadrophenia" featuring The Who and starring Sting, before the Police...
