With Anne Marie and Gina's imminent Who gigs on my mind I figured this blog could do with a little WHO WHO WHO WHO!
Last week whilst having a miserable day at work I couldn't resist buying The Radio Times even though I was fully aware of Mick's intention of buying one, hence the photo.
I love the new album, as does everyone I've played it to. My Dad is a newly converted Who fan, being particularly fond of 'Man in the Purple Dress.' He's obviously passionately in agreement with the sentiment, singing along with a look of indignation and his efforts to annotate the lyrics using the art of mime had my mum and I in fits of giggles. Later he proceeded to do a windmill although if you didn't know that's what he was doing I don't think you'd have guessed! Funny, my Dad, not sure if he realises it though!
Of all the songs on the new album 'God speaks of Marty Robbins' is my ultimate favourite. I just adore it, can't get enough of it, I think it's just a perfect song, just perfect! 'You stand by me' is Micky's favourite, he believes it to be 'the best Who song since Quadrophenia'. That's quite something coming from Mick, he's not easily pleased to say the least.
So what are your opinions on the new album? Any favourites? Would love to know what you've all made of it.
I better get myself home, it's incredibly windy tonight, not looking forward to the cycle but it can't be put off any longer.
