Empty Glass

Pete's solo album is released April 21, 1980 -- generally considered his best solo work. He wrote it during some troubled times -- the death of Keith Moon, alcoholism, spiritual searching and his own struggle with his fame as one of rock's icons. It's a great album -- many think better than anything coming out of The Who at the time. #petetownshend #emptyglass #80srock #rockmusic #music #musicsky #musiciansky #pop #rock #thewho

"My Generation" by #TheWho. A kick-ass album from 1965. Apparently hastily put together after couple of their singles got successful, and band themselves didn't much appreciate it later on. But there's some wild and harsh sonic stuff here, and the #mono Polydor CD issue sounds just brilliant! Just a few covers, and many #PeteTownshend early songs. And #KeithMoon rocks. The picture shows backside of the CD sleeve with some young lads looking at something.
