JAE in Goldmine



        Just read a friend's copy of John's interview in the 7/5/96 issue 
     of Goldmine (#416).  It's very interesting.  Here are some of the 
     topics covered:
     
     John's opinion of the 30 Years Box and how much he's had to do with    
       the reissues
     His take on Pete's present opinion of The Who
     Influences on his playing style
     Who wrote "Cobwebs & Strange"
     Lambert's plans for a John-centered album
     Why The Who are more popular in America than Britain
     The Who's influence on Jimi Hendrix
     What Alison wanted to do when she heard "My Wife"
     Battling bootleggers
     The weird recording method of the "Face Dances" LP
     Quadrophienia and Wagner
     Playing Quadrophenia live in 1973
     Why "Success Story" was never played onstage
     Was Keith Moon being forced out in 1978?
     Why "A Quick One" is cut in half on some copies of "The Kids Are       
       Alright" movie
     Why there might be some problems with either a new reunion tour or a   
      tour with Roger
     
     These and many more topics are covered in Ken Sharp's 6-page 
     interview.  Do check it out.
