| | Who Tommy Soundtrack CD (11 Customer Reviews)
The definitive rock opera, TOMMY liberated the Who from a "singles band" stigma, marking them as a substantial artistic force. Composer Pete Townshend had flirted with the conceptual format on two previous releases, but here his vision is spread ... Full Descriptionover two ambitious records that play to the Who's main strengths. Anthems such as the raucous "Pinball Wizard" and the surprisingly serene "I'm Free" emphasize the kinetic power of the band, while Townshend's cast of characters (the perverted Uncle Ernie, the inscrutable Tommy) reveals a wild and unconventional imagination. Townshend even incorporates Sonny Boy Williamson's "Eyesight to the Blind" as part of his fable about the "deaf, dumb, and blind kid," making a successful reference to the past in what is an undeniably groundbreaking and forward-looking achievement.
Originally released as a 2 LP set on Decca (7205).
Recorded at IBC Studio, London, England.
Reissue producer: Jon Astley.
The Who: Pete Townshend (vocals, guitar, keyboards); John Entwistle (vocals, French horn, bass); Keith Moon (vocals, drums); Roger Daltrey (vocals).

Rolling Stone (12/11/03, p.118) - Ranked #96 in Rolling Stone's "500 Greatest Albums Of All Time" - "...Driven by the hellbent drumming of Keith Moon, the Who surge and shine..." Rolling Stone (1/22/04, p.74) - 4 stars out of 5 - "...Almost thirty-five years later, this classic-rock touchstone still has the power to enthrall..."

| | Stereotypes 3 CDs (2005)
Tommy Soundtrack album
$9.59 If any one band is going to save rock and roll, then it's going to be The Stereotypes. Period. Mixing classic rock influences (Beatles, Stones, Beach Boys) with a hybrid of power-pop, garage-rock and punk, the San Diego quintet also boasts a considerable hook quotient that will make you instantly remember just about every song they've ever written. Skeptical? Just take a listen to last year's "2," which managed to pack more great songs into a half-hour than most groups have in their entire catalog. That dedication to great songwriting is further evident on "3," their new album, and further proof that The Stereotypes are a uniquely talented band in a music industry teeming with imitators and bullshit artists.Recorded once again at the band's own Earthling studio by guitarists Mike Kamoo (who also plays drums on the album) and Dante Conti, "3" takes the core of what made its predecessor so good and expands on it. Arrangements are more motivated this time, thanks mainly to the notable inclusion of mellotron and organ on many of the tracks and a cleaner, more upfront production. Singer John Finkbiner is much more the star here than he was ...
