Just started reading this. Had no idea Roger was such a hard-ass. I thought Pete was the ruffian, but Roger liked to fight. While the first drummer claimed Roger punched Pete all the time, Towhshend claims Daltrey did not hit him until 1974.

Quadrophenia has been my favourite album since the second time I listened to it, almost 30 years ago (on first listening, six months earlier, I hated it), and in terms of musicianship (especially Entwistle and Moon), it is a milestone. I've always found it interesting that Daltry prefers Quad to Tommy while Townsend's position is the opposite. While Tommy is certainly more foundational and thus more important historically, I think Quad is more mature musically and vocally.

on a non musical note.i know Roger Daltrey has done some acting,has anyone seen him in anything other than "Mcvicar"?
I Remember him in an Episode of "Sliders" playing a soldier in one of the Alternate Earths they slide to.
any other roles?
He appeared in a number of episodes of Highlander, the TV series. Also, he has made regular appearances in British dramas. The Bill comes to mind immediately, but thdere are others.

For me, Who's Next is synonymous with Who's Greatest Hits. "Baba 'O Riley" is a great anthem song. I would consider it and "Won't Get Fooled Again" kinda proggy even.

I saw The Who on their last tour with Robert Plant as the opening act. It was pretty awesome. The first time that I had seen either. Probably not nearly as powerful as in their primes, but I was so glad that I was able to finally see both of them live.
