Shred Room L: Suede Room X: #MWH

I usually can't either -- I like to bounce around a lot.  But lately I've been trying it out and it's an interesting way to listen to stuff.

i can't stay focused on an artist that long.

I love that scene in The Song Remains the Same during Moby Dick where Bonham's son is playing those little drums and John joins in, and his son does that little drum stick twirl. So adorable!

I just think the musical unity of Quadrophenia puts it over the top.  Basically, "Quadrophenia" as a word refers to a personality split four ways.  Townshend renders this with four strong recurring musical themes correlating to these four sides of the protagonist's personality, and also conveniently correlating to the four members of The Who.  The four themes work well both alone and together (in fact this latter point is proven by the penultimate track which plays all four themes at once).  

The Who are another band that I have always been more hits-oriented towards.  I have most, if not all, of their albums, but I enjoy their "Who's Better Who's Best" compilation album the best of anything.  I find many of their non-hits to be average.

I've always liked the Who, but I've never been as heavily into them as I have the Beatles and the Kinks.  There's really only one Who album that I would give 5 stars (Quadrophenia).

So how about the Who? I've been getting more into them lately, enjoying Live at Leeds and Who's Next especially.

My top thee would be: III, IV and Houses. I haven't really listened to the others enough to judge.

I've probably played Steve Miller's greatest hits album a couple of hundred times but I have never really delved any further with him.  I do have one of his more recent releases.  Something "River".
