TOMMY

I'm a big fan of the Who and when they put out albums like this, is it any wonder? Possibly the best rock opera ever, Tommy leaves a little something for fans of all types. The give the folksy fans some folk-sounding music, they give the prog fans a concept album, and they give the mainstream rock fans Pinball Wizard. The concept is layed out perfectly, (Pete Townshend had an uncanny ability to do this) and when you are a prog fan that is very important. Roger Daultrey's singing is of course great and I can't get over Moon the Loon's incredible drumming. I would give this a five-star rating but hesitate in doing so because it's not really prog. My favorite tracks are Pinball Wizard of course, the Acid Queen, and See Me, Feel Me.
