It's sometimes said that it's not really a 'Who song' because it's so uncharacteristic, but I'd say that being so different is part of what makes it great! And isn't it unrepresentative of Pete's solo material too? Incidentally, Pete said at a Who gig I saw in London a few years ago that there's a version they recorded with an excellent lead vocal from Roger. He thought this deserved to be heard one day.

Totally.. except The SOUND of the drums could have been a little fatter for my liking. Some people hate on Kenney as a bad Keith Moon replacement... but I think The Who's songs from the 80s were 'victims' of the 1980s themselves: thin drums. If you were lucky to get real drums at all. But yes, straightfoward drums are definitely what this song needs. I would just prefer a bit thicker SOUND, is all. 👍

Hey Randy, October ‘82 was going to school in NoLa and rented an old milk truck/van drove to Mobile to see The Who (Farewell Tour) and that was the first time I heard “Eminence Front” (live) and been hooked ever since. Mobile, Al holds a special place in my heart. Peace/out from CO

Pete and Roger rockin' Schecter Teles. That's a thumb in Fender's eye. I can't say as I blame them, though. I've tried a few Schecters over the years and they are so sweet and easy to play.

To my mind, the deepest lyricist and finest composer with the best tenor voice is Mr. Pete Townshend. Teamed with one of the best front-end and the best bassist. what's not to love?

I always regretted that they stopped producing records since 1983. I wonder if The Who had continued to release albums during the 1980s. no doubt they would have released wonderful albums

The perfection of Pete Townshend and John Entwistle. They literally just GO OFF.. incredible bad asses! I could literally not live my life complete without The Who. And OBVIOUSLY our boy Roger Daltry! (RiP Keith, MISS YOU) IN SHORT, My life is just better with their music. It's just a thing that I have to have. If you know, you know.

Townsend really never got the credit he deserves for being such a tremendous guitar player. His songwriting perhaps was what he was famous for but he could always really make a guitar sound like him.

I love watching Roger Daltrey taking that deep breath while playing guitar. If I'm right, this was filmed at the Capital Center in Washington, DC, just before the opening night of their tour. Roger hadn't played guitar in the band since the early 1960s, which explains the deep breath.

I understand he quit playing guitar because during the day he worked in a sheet metal factory and his fingers would get sliced up. It became too painful to then play the guitar at night.
