Episode 31
Episode date - May 3, 2019
In his autobiography, Pete Townshend refers to this era of the band’s career as a time when “The Who were suddenly playing second fiddle to the individual pursuits of the band’s members.
Based on the last show and this one, there is plenty of evidence to prove him correct. Luckily, Pete kept himself mostly focused, holding the band together with his songwriting and dedication to band over other pursuits.
