Check out this tributary. Eddy V loves Townsend, so they are pretty faithful. Mike McC channeled his inner Who

Enjoy.


Damn. That was good. Eddie did a better Daltrey than Daltrey often does! Ament was spot on too.

Always condsired this to be one of the best bass songs of all time. Kind of summarizes the Who - guitar, drums, and in this case, bass going wildly off in every direction.

Entwhistle's bass is KILLER!! Jumping, dancing, shouting, and screaming: "CAN YOU SEE THE REAL ME, ME, ME, ME, ME?!?!"

I'm a drummer and I play with a VERY good bassist, but whenever I hear John Endwistle I just MELT. Pure genius who for me at least defines what this instrument is all about. Too many bassists are just guitarists playing octaves lower. That's not bass.

Moon's drumming was a precision weapon. Incredible high caliber machine gun power. One of the very greatest rock and roll tunes. It practically defines rock and roll.

No way to ever forget the impact of THIS one! I recall how, while still in Engineering School, I had done a stay-over after an all-night rager at The Smith House — three and sometimes four unrelated guys named Smith shared it — the morning after, as we struggled awake and were pleased to find some beer still left in the keg in the ice-tub, Mark S put this on the collective stereo and CRANKED IT... I'd heard it before, and was even known as "a Who freak" but never on such a superior system at such an incredible volume. It woke everyone up, for real, and it also inspired another day and night of full-on partying. Can't easily forget the memory of us shaking our fists and screaming along to this one, and chugging mightily in between, to the phenomenal beat of that Boss-like bass.

John Entwhistle was bass heaven on earth. Now on earth as it is in heaven.

Ridiculous hyperbole. Does no one any good here.

That's an interesting segue from Beck. Only at Bill & Becky's joint.
