Who references on Strummer's last album...

["C Bogs" <moonshineboy99@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

If i may squeeze my way in between the political back-biting & hurt 
feelings, a topic that has to do with... MUSIC!
Anyway, lately i've been listening to "Global A Go-Go", the album Joe 
Strummer put out with The Mescaleros in 2001, & i noticed two Who 
references:

In the title track, which names quite a few different artists in different 
parts of the world, there is this line - "Quadrophenia in Armenia/Armenia 
city in the sky."  Best part of the second line is that Joe almost sound 
like Daltrey.
The last song is called "Minstrel Boy" (apparently a traditional song), and 
it's a long, mostly instrumental song.  Joe pops up here & there with some 
spoken lines & towards the end he says, "This song is about Pete Townshend."

I thought these were kind of interesting & i wonder if there was any formal 
connection between Strummer & Townshend.
