Re: Talkin' Bout Their Generation




With regard to the boot interview CD 'Talkin' Bout Their Generation, I have to
correct Alan McKendree on one point. The Pete Townshend interview segment is
not from 1985-1988 AT ALL. Actuall, the interview is from May 1982, when Pete
was doing interviews for Chinese Eyes. Pete describes the recording of the
WHO's next studio album (It's Hard), and discusses why their last album Face
Dances didn't work (improper material for the band). Scoop had not come out
at this point, but Pete talked about finishing his first album of home demos.
(Scoop DID finally come out in March 1983). For those who don't know, this PT 
interview was actually published in Musician magazine over the course of two 
issues during the summer of 1982. Somehow, the audio portion of the interview
got out to those darned bootleggers!!!! :) :)

Hope that clears up the confusion about the PT segment of that CD.
