Knorbu Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 Anybody else catch the one night screening of the Quadrophenia documentary? Pete Townsend produced and nararated it , with a lot of "behind the scenes"stories about the making of the album . Hopefully it will come out on DVD as it was good enough that I would probably watch it a few more times. It was really good to see the boys performing parts of the album on a really big screen...damn theater didn't use the sound system appropriately though.

picky Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 I can remember when 'Quadrophenia' was first released: I bought the two-tape, 8-Track set, which I nearly wore out. I was amazed by the innovation of the manner in which the songs were written and performed. "Sheer genius!" Although, my 8-tracks are long gone, I still have my 2-disc (or is it 3?), vinyl album in my collection in near-perfect condition. Great stuff from those punks! It's a keeper! -Glenn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knorbu Posted July 27, 2012 Author Share Posted July 27, 2012 The Who has always been one of my favorite bands, Quadrophenia one of my favorite albums. I have never grown tired of it, and still have not outgrown the "teenage angst" in the lyric's. I went to the Who's website to see if they were selling the DVD , and discovered Roger and Pete have assembled some musicians to do a Quadrophenia Tour. Gotta love it.
