if i had a nickel every time lewis capaldi kissed a member of one direction, i’d have two nickels, which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it’s happened twice

Wait, another deeply anxiety-laden introverted sensitive soul who now doesn’t think he is good or worthy enough and doesn’t want to hold back the otherwise obvious love of his love because of it?

Hyper fixation incoming

Yes! Finally.

But now I am shitting it, over who takes over.

As a country the UK is a shitshow. We need, and when I say we I mean them, the ones in office and government, need to get it together and do better.

Rewind: The Who - Who’s Next (1971)

Though it has no filler, Who’s Next is an album that today is unworthy of playing straight through.

For despite its essential perfection, the Who’s second-consecutive masterpiece - Who’s Next followed 1969’s Tommy - is a victim of its own success, rendering the LP’s bookends, “Baba O’Riley” and “Won’t Get Fooled Again,” unnecessary, despite their exquisite composition, arrangement and performance.

Which leaves the hi-fi at Chez Sound Bites to play “Bargain” through “Behind Blue Eyes” almost exclusively, although the latter, too, is a song classic-rock disc jockeys have seen fit to overexpose. But the bridge - When my fist clenches, crack it open …, is impervious to unimaginative radio playlists.

In any event, guitarist/second lead vocalist Pete Townshend wrote eight instant classics for the album, while bassist extraordinaire John Entwistle contributed one with “My Wife,” on which he also plays the brass and piano. It’s songs such as this that serve to remind listeners that while there is no Who without Pete Townshend, the Who was also a band of, if not equals, then equally essential players, something that’s become more evident in the wake of drummer Keith Moon and Entwistle’s deaths in 1978 and 2002, respectively.

The singular Moon is at his looney peak on such songs as “Bargain” and “Going Mobile,” on which he transforms the drum set into a lead instrument without soloing. The kinetic energy in his playing is the Who’s engine and when Moon switches on the turbo, the band takes off in a way few others have been able to match.

Nicky Hopkins drops in to play piano on the balladic “The Song is Over” and the more-aggressive “Getting in Tune,” the latter being a rare song that leans heavily on a cliché - gettin’ in tune to the straight and narrow - without sounding clichéd. This is Townshend’s genius - as are “Love Ain’t for Keeping” and the other compositions the guitarist cranked out for the group’s fifth studio release.

For a band with the staying power of the Who - and the not-quite-authentic post-1982 lineups that played under its banner - it’s perhaps shocking to remember this classic lineup made only eight albums and just 12 have been released since the band’s 1965 formation. But when records like Who’s Next, not to mention Tommy and Quadrophenia, are among them, quality is the key; quantity an unrealistic dream.
