Brad's Question (it has Who content)
Q: What Who (or PT) song that was released as a single should never have
been?
My response: "Dogs" was a pretty silly bit (although Pete has said that its
failure inspired him toward the grander project he'd been working on. I
think it was eventually called TOMMY. As far as a second place, I'd vote for
"Squeeze Box." I inevitably skip that track on the WBN CD. As for a Pete
song, I think he should have skipped issuing "Face Dances, Pt. 2."
"Uniforms" would have better from that album (and its absence from Pete's
so-called "best of" stinks).
Q. What Who (or PT) song that wasn't ever a major release should have been?
My response: I guess Brad means what song would I have like to have seen be
a major hit for the Who. Hm...I'd have to say I'd have love to have seen
"The Real Me" be a big hit. It may have done a lot to keep the Who on an
upward trend in the 70s and shown Pete that QUAD was not a "failure" (so
labeled by Pete).
