Re: January Q
In a bit of an about turn from the paucity of Who related info in
British rock magazines lately (most have been filling their pages with
George Harrison tributes), Q has a number of features concurring the
'orrible 'OO.
First up, in their "50 most exciting tunes ever" feature, I can't
Explain crashes in at number 24 and Keith appears to get top spot as
Rock's most excitable timekeeper.
The top 10 for those interested are
10 Jumping Jack Flash
9 White Riot
8 Rock 'n roll star (oasis)
7 Get up (sex machine) (James Brown)
6 Lust for life
5 Smells like teen spirit
4 A hard day's night
3 Rebel without a pause (public enemy)
2 Firestarter (prodigy)
1 God save the Queen
There's a photo feature starring Roger Daltrey, with Roger's commentary
on a number of photos of himself; the main one is Roger in rock god pose
at the RAH concert in 1968.
There's an article about the drug speed, with a number of references to
Keith and the Who's use of drugs; and finally a review of the Dougal
Butler's recent photobiog of Keith which is most complimentary.
Cheers,
John
