I agree, Daddy Rolling Stone is on par with "Just You and Me" and
"Please Please Please" (yes I love that song).  How you define
latter scares me, but I guess you mean Face Dances and It's Hard.
Surely anything from Who By Numbers (as bland to you as it might be)
deserves justice on the disc.  And I am one of the few Who fans who
look into "Love Is Coming Down" and immediately get very depressed.
I. E. moving.




BTW I gave Face Dances a listen the other day and actually liked
it.  Im well aware that on a Who scale it's sub par material.  But
look at the album as a rock album by anyone and it's not bad.
