I've been a huge WHO fan since Boris still was creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly. Though I think Quad is great, and the film was fun, too, I'm surprised at your effusive feelings over it.
I mean, it's totally cool, even way cool that you feel that way about any (great+) album. I can't have a favorite Who album. I just bought a remastered Face Dances last week and that's been a blast to get reacquainted with.
I guess, if I HAD to pick one album it'd be "Who's Next,?" probably because I saw them perform it. OK, maybe you're right, 'cause that was the best rock concert I'd ever seen.
Favorite Who song: Pictures of Lilly. Like "You Really Got Me," it was as an earthquake that knocked me off axis for good.

That was fun, but who's playing those TWO guitars while she's fondling her hair? You don't think her hair sounds like that when being fondled?

I was kind of hoping the Quadrophenia Super Deluxe edition would be a little cheaper than $120.
I'm going to replace my 1980's-era CD with the ~$20 Director's Cut remaster when it comes out 11/15. I think the original one sounds very good, so hopefully, they didn't wreck it.
I've always been a big fan of The Who. I even really liked the first couple of post-Keith-Moon discs, because Pete was REALLY prolific creatively during that era.
I probably need a remaster of Live at Leeds, too, while I'm throwing stuff in my cart.
I'm considering going to see Jane Monheit next month. Anyone?

Quadrophenia is the best album of all time. Why should I care ?

Tom, I purchased the 1996 remastered version of Quadrophenia back in 2008. Sounds really good although have not compared it to my vinyl copy (which is probably worn out anyway). Not sure how much better the directors cut remaster will be. Funny enough, this is the only Who cd that I own. Seen them numerous times years ago. Might even check out Roger Daltrey's show next week in Vancouver. Cheers, Shaun

I miss albums that you really want to listen to start to finish. Quadrophenia is almost an uninterruptible unit. Unfortunately, work hasn't been kind to me today and I've had to break it up a bit.
Thanks for inspiring me to try, Tom!
