Edited 4 months agoWhy this album wasn’t called “It’s Your Turn” (given the cover art) I’ll never know.
Many critics endlessly wail about the supposed awfulness of this album, but I’ve always loved it. “It’s Hard” and “One Life’s Enough” are the only tracks I’ve never warmed up to, but “Athena,” “Dangerous,” and “Cry If You Want” are some of my favorite Who tunes.
P.S. Anyone else notice “Cry If You Want” bears a resemblance to Townshend’s “Communication”? -
