Never really been a huge fan of The Who, always felt they were very much a singles band. But I love their cover of Martha Reeves' 'Heatwave' and I like this too.

[Hoichi]

I think they are one of the greatest bands. I think 'Pictures of Lily', 'Substitute' and 'Won't Get Fooled Again' are some of the greatest songs ever.

I prefer the Beatles' cover of 'Twist and Shout' the best but the Who's version is very good also, better than their version of 'Summertime Blues'!

[Oldmankrondas]

Oh yeah the Beatles version is brilliant, I love their versions of 'Baby It's You' and 'I Got A Woman'. People have tried to get me into The Who but have failed. Hmm.

[Hoichi]

Each to their own! I would love to hear what Bands you like. Music is one of my favourite subjects: tardistype40.proboards59.com/index.cgi?board=general&action=display&thread=1147873016

If I was trying to convert into a Who fan I would make you listen to 'Won't Get Fooled Again', I am listening to it this moment and it has an absolutely amazing sound.

[Oldmankrondas]

I have that on my iTunes and it is a cracking tune, the Who do have some good stuff, but I always feel that the good song to good album ratio is slightly skew-wiff.

[Hoichi]

Each to their own. I think of the Who as mainly an album band, 'Tommy' and 'Quadrophenia' have no weak tunes on them.
