The Who Quadrophenia (2-LPs)

Ranked #56 in Q's "100 Greatest British Albums"
5 Stars - Indispensible - "...it abides as one of The Who's peaks because...its instant, push-button atmosphere is always lifted from the realms of ham by some heartfelt Daltrey shout'n'croon, a bit of comedy Moon...and the anthemic elegance of the last two tracks..."
4 stars out of 5 - "...The very essence of The Who in the '70s - gravity-defying bassruns and all....Townshend's heart sounds like it might burst with all that disaffection. Fantastic, still."

8 (out of 10) - "...it is only now that a fully remastered...full, double CD version has been released....Townshend's windmilling riffing arm has never been busier, John Entwistle remains the finest bass player breathing, and Keith Moon...is truly magnificent..."
4 stars out of 5 -- "What's initially most striking is how elaborate so many of these tracks are, one man laboriously multi-tracking himself to give his colleagues the fullest possible idea of how the finished songs should sound."
