Whosters,
Just a little anecdote. I have this friend of mine who knows I'm
an absolute nutcase where The Who are concerned, but she used to be a
little bemused at my reactions where that particular group were
concerned: like `why do you react so violently' etc.etc. The other day she
said she hadn't heard them any too well, so I fished out one of those
innumerable Greatest Hits tapes (this one had all the usual + My Wife and
The Incomparable, The Magnificent - RELAY) and gave it to her. The next
night she comes up to me looking AWED and says `MY GOD! MY GOD!' for a
couple of minutes. She looks like a convert for life! Today I plan to
give her Tommy and see what she has to say tomorrow!!
Another thread: someone wrote the other day about a book called
Full Moon by Dougal Butler; I have a copy of book by him called Moon The
Loon, which seems to be much the same thing - booze, sex, pills, hotel
rooms and MOON as a motif running right through all of them (sorry for
the bad pun)!
