The same from Pt 1. Another classic Rock Opera or Concept, however you call it. I'll have to listen to it again to give a proper vote. |

Another one of my very favorite albums. Disc 1 is good, but disc 2 has 5:15, Drowned, Doctor Jimmy, The Rock and Love Reign O'er Me. Poi-fect! |

I can see why Disc 2 might be more popular with the proggies, but Disc 1 has the better songs in my opinion. The Real Me, Punk and Godfather? Come on! I say Disc 1 for the epic instrumental Quadrophenia. |

Such an incredible double album, but it's Disc 2 for me. ------------- "The music business is a cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs. There's also a negative side." - HST |

| Um... not sure... both quite even, but not quite perfect. I think I'll give the edge to disc 1, narrowly. |

| Both are quite very very great. I think disc two is a bit more substantial, but disc 1 always sticks in my head more. The songs particularly the first half is very contagious. |

| It's been too many years since I last listened to it in full, but it was my favourite rock album at one time. I have to buy this again (I lost my LPs). From memory, definitely Disc 2 for the final three tracks. I adore "The Rock" ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z4VUVOOYARg - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z4VUVOOYARg ) I've never been that keen on Daltrey's vocals, but I love The Who's instrumentals. |

Wow, very tough..but I went with Disc 2. Easily one of the greatest albums of all time, and a must have for any rock fan.

I cut my own hair so every time I do, I get the "Why should I care, if I have to cut my hair" line stuck in my head. So I throw up my hands and say, "I'm crazy, Ma. Help me." No vote. Having to go with one without the other would be like dating a model with one boob. ------------- Biggles was in rehab last Saturday |

Tough... I love them both, but I guess I like Disc 2 better for a few songs. -------------
