To clarify, I think Lennon/McCartney were a freak accident. On their own they were not that great. Townshend is consistent. The album from a few months ago proves it. It's actually realy good.

They are brilliant and he is an amazing songwriter. I always sort of credit with them creating the "angst" in rock music. - pmb Apr 26, 16:05 3
- I 1000% percent agree it's the seeds of punk. "I Can See For Miles" is from 1966. It's astonishing. - loosilu Apr 26, 16:08 2
  - If you haven't read his autobiography, I highly recommend it. -- nm - pmb Apr 26, 16:10 1
    - Sure did! also, my book rec, "Full Moon" written by Keith Moon's long suffering personal assistant/roadie/driver/babysitter. HYSTERICALLY funny -- nm - loosilu Apr 26, 16:12
