Who Quadrophenia Rock Music CD Review
December 8th, 2009
Not sure what’s happening with me on this one, but it seems like the more I listen to it, the better Quadrophenia gets. Quadrophenia stated simply is one of their best CDs to date.
Who have been a heavy hitters in the Rock genre for quite a while now and Quadrophenia is an excellent illustration as to why.
Quadrophenia has a pleasantly varied, mix of 17 tracks that are very well written and brilliantly performed songs by these clearly talented musicians. With many of the songs displaying a lot of the kind emotion that makes for a really great listen. Seemingly drawing from what I can only imagine are their own personal experiences. At different points touching on the most real emotions of love, heartbreak, pain, failed relationships and unattainable romance. They’re all here.
Overall Quadrophenia is an outstanding release. Quite possibly Who’s best to date. Really sensational from beginning to end. If you’re even mildly into Rock music you’ll enjoy this CD.
While the entire CD is outstanding some of my favorites are track 5 – The Punk And The Godfather, track 2 – disc 2 – Sea And Sand, and track 7 – disc 2 – Love, Reign O’er Me
My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [. . . as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 1 – I Am The Sea. This is a great track!
