    Seven Songs for the Week #127 - 10th Sept 25

    Jason Carty

    Listening to lesser familiar Who-related stuff. I'd never listened to this album before, probably because it has the worst title of all time. There is a fascinating 30 minute video album that was made to go with this which I found myself watching this week also. At one point, in a very 1980s kitchen, he makes a grim-looking bacon, eggs and tomato breakfast in a massive microwave. The contractual obligation that resulted in two Pete albums and two Who albums in just over 2 years from 80 to 82 makes you wonder what if all the powers had been focused in one direction. This tongue-twisting song with a bit more of band oomph and some Daltrey back & forth would have been a treat.
