Thread: The Who-Quadrophenia Live in London

    The Who-Quadrophenia Live in London

    Well, this is a pleasant surprise! I read tour reviews that were very positive, but I didn't expect this to be as good as it is, particularly, since Zak Starkey was on IR for the tour with a tendon problem. I had never heard of Scott Devours but he is damned good! Pino has stepped up his game too! Put this on with a little volume! I am amazed at the energy level. I haven't played the DVD yet, but the CD is excellent! Highly recommended!

    Looking forward to hearing this. My favourite 'Oo album and I'm glad to see it getting the love it deserves from Pete and Roger.

    Does it matter that this waste of time is what makes a life for you?

    What impressed me most is the vibrancy of the recording. Perhaps it was sweetened in the studio. I don't know. I just know when I put it on for the first time last night I was impressed with the performance and with Scott Devours.

    I have the DVD and think the vocals are too low in the mix.

    I was listening to this, the DVD and the CD, with two different sets of headphones, and noticed an improvement when I rolled off the bass just a bit. The overall performance strikes me as pretty amazing.

    I haven't had a chance to listen to the new 5.1 mix of the studio album yet.

    Another one to pick up. The show in Oakland was great!

    I haven't checked out the DVD yet. Tonight or tomorrow night perhaps. But I agree that the overall performance is quite amazing.
