Description

Andy Neill talks about writing and curating the new book Their Generation: The Who in America 1967–69 and how it came about, photographer Tom Wright’s role and importance in The Who’s history, the light-hearted elements of The Who’s music through the years, the band’s struggle to initially break America, his involvement in the upcoming Live at the Oval 1971 album, the long process behind the album’s release, and why The Who are being inexplicably overlooked as a live band.

 

Plus: Paul attends the opening night of Quadrophenia: A Mod Ballet at Sadler’s Wells and gets very close to saying something stupid to Pete Townshend.

 

Music by The Garage
