I dunno. His guitar playing was suffering from the tinnitus, but he had his
moments. I don't think Pete's voice has ever been better than those years.
He was young enough to have range and old enough to have resonance. Plus,
he had a certain amount of expertise on guitar apart from the power chords.
I didn't like the style that developed on the old music, but the new songs
went very well. I love the live "Sister Disco" from this period and of
course "Eminence Front" and "It's Hard."
>Truly, I'm sick of the "Who->'s Next' roster of tunes too.
What does that leave? A lot of relative obscurities and QUAD?
>Gaby Lester is on this upcoming tour I HOPE????
I think it's Robert Plant.

Do you think Ian McKellen will get an Oscar for Gandalf?
