observations on Tommy



I haven't heard the remastered version, tho it's the one I'm gonna buy as
I only have the vinyl LP (Japanese pressing).  Are there any changes from
the original vinyl recording-wise (i.e., extra licks, different fade-outs,
etc.)  

I remember Roger saying that Townshend spent so much time on the instrumentals
that the vocals were rather rushed - mostly it was in and out of the booth
in 5 minutes for the singing...  John Lydon of the Sex Pistols made the same
complaint for the NMTBHTSP album, where Steve Jones put on a million guitar
tracks (sounds great, btw) and Lydon was s'posta come in with the vocals
and knock 'em off 3 at a time so to speak..
