Who's Next
The Who
I remember, as a teenager, my parents freaking out about the album cover, my mom said it was "vulgar trash" and I shouldn't waste my money on it.
We Won't Get Fooled Again
Baba O' Riley
The Song Is Over
and the fabulous
"Behind Blue Eyes" - that one alone was worth the purchase price !

(1,474 posts)I have it on CD, but listen to it on flac ripped from CD. Vinyl just isn't as good as flac on a high-resolution DAC and good speaker system. My opinion, of course.
Behind Blue Eye is great, but Baba O'Riley is too.

Tickets were $4.50 and $5.50. My friend and I chose the cheaper seats because we couldn't afford $5.50.
