Speaking of Pete Townshend, my favorite solo effort from him is "White City" - a very timely release addressing Apartheid in South Africa.

Got the chance to see the Who in concert many years back - absolutely magical.

Nobody, and I mean nobody but me ever speaks about Pete Townshend here, and I don't mean that as insulting. He's just... forgotten. The biggest response on a Pete post was for Slipkid a year ago, I remember @PackRat commented.

Pete doing a mellow Eminence Front...

I've said it before, my favorite songwriter/musician. In your face, Lennon-McCartney, Stevie Wonder, Sting and Joni Mitchell!

Can You See the Real Me (Scoop version with Pete singing)...

As a matter of fact, the last mention of Pete was by me on August 1st. Verdict, you used a clumsy segue for no reason, get it together.

Well friend, being raised on the Beatles, The Who, Led Zeppelin, Jethro Tull, Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, Jimi Hendrix and a whole host of others (and being a bit of a musician myself), I certainly do appreciate talent - actual talent, that is.
So when I see someone else commenting on a very powerful influence and IMO a musical genius, it definitely lands - and makes me smile.
And speaking of Jimi, my favorite from him and The Experience probably has to be "Axis: Bold As Love" That album just rox.

^ Electric Ladyland for me, a humble effort.

I'm paraphrasing, but there's footage of a Pete interview where he says something like "Jimi, Keith, Janice, Jim... dead. These were my friends, man!

That falsetto in Empty Glass is up their on my list of haunting music.

A favorite of mine, I think Pete is afraid.
