Mit eigenen Worten ... |
The Who\'s third record strung together recent singles with fake radio jingles and announcements. It was a sendup of consumer culture, and the band\'s first stab at a concept album. Songs such as \"Mary Anne With the Shaky Hand,\" \"Silas Stingy\" and \"Tattoo\" have an almost psychedelic melodicism and hint at the kind of character studies Pete Townshend would explore more fully on Quadrophenia and Tommy. And \"I Can See for Miles\" is simply classic Who, driven by Townshend\'s acoustic and electric power chords, John Entwistle\'s contrapuntal bass figures and Keith Moon\'s hydraulic drumming.
Total album sales: Under 500,000
Peak chart position: 48
