"The critics have always been our enemy because of the self-appointed, self-anoited, houlier-than-thou approach they take. Even though they rarely have credentials, never went to school,never studied journalism and have no ethics, they have the point of view that their opinion is more important than ours. They are a bane to society, a completely worthless form of life as we know it on this planet." -Gene Simmons

The Who - Tommy
I usually have a hard time casually listening to the post British Invasion era Who. During the rare occasion that I'm in that zone where I can appreciate it. The mid career Who releases like Tommy are incredibly awesome. There's a bunch of great songs on Tommy and the production is so much better than their previous release. This is the first album where Roger Daltry really takes over and finds his place as lead singer. Side 2 is really strong and easy to enjoy without giving any thought to the "opera". I know it's hard for people to digest this 75 minute opera sandwich.
Recurring themes.
