Fang, re:

>> So I guess that TWSMG could count as my least favorite Who.

>That's a shame. There are many good songs on it, such as "Out >In
TheStreets", "The Goods Gone", "La La La Lies", "My >Generation", "The Kids
Are Alright", "Legal Matter", "Instant >Party" & "Much Too Much"... I hope
that what has "deterred" you >is the sound quality and hope that they reach
an argreement >with Talmy so that can be remedied...

No, it's not a shame.  I am not one of those Who fans who happens to think
that everything they did was brilliant.  OK, A LEGAL MATTER, THE KIDS ARE
ALRIGHT are both OK.  But I prefer the Who in their more over-the-top,
bigger, fuller sound.  Their early stuff is ROCK-N-ROLL.  The stuff of theirs
that I really like is ROCK.  I see a difference between the two.  The Stones
are rock-n-roll, the Who from SELL OUT on are rock--bigger sounds, multiple
layers of overdubs, keyboards, longer tracks, etc.  This is why I like bands
like Yes.

And even if/when TWSMG gets freed from Talmy and remixed, I'll still skip it
and be a happy Who fan without it.
