Here’s something to liven up the dullest holiday of the year (for me at least; I hope you’re loving it, but I care nothing for turkey, dressing, pumpkin pie or football). Anyway, I’ve read over the years that the Quadrophenia tour was a mess. Here’s one reason why.
King of Feel
I got sucked into this video by “Rain” which I love… never heard it until college because it wasn’t on our Beatles ’62-’66 8-track tape.
Percussion be with you.

Happy Who Day everyone!
Largo, Maryland from the tail end of the US Quadrophenia tour, 1973. Rhythm section is on a mission here.
Sorry it cuts out at the end.
One Of My All-Time Favorite Drummers
Power, precision, feel, taste. And Headon plays like a true musician, coming up with lots of interesting patterns within the same song.
Exhibit A
Exhibit B
Behind the Music
Same old story.
Lovely Rita
I appreciate Animal’s enthusiasm.
R.E.M.’s First Group Interview In 30 Years
Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to go listen to Fables of the Reconstruction, my introduction to these guys.
Rings
Lee Iacocca brought us so much great music.
The High Numbers
A revved up Ooh Poo Pah Doo and a great cover of I Gotta Dance to Keep From Crying.
Are you a mod or a rocker?
Zombie Season
A lot going on here that I missed when I first listened.
My compliments to everyone involved.
