One of my favorite classic rocks band is The Who. Had the opportunity to see them at Madison Square Garden. Best concert I have ever seen. When the album Quadrophenia was released, I think it was the only album I listened to in the car for at least a year. Awesome band. To this day my best friend Armand still interjects “Tommy, can you hear me” into his conversations. Don’t question this, just accept it as he is one of the funniest people on the planet. You just never know where he is going to take you or what historical party reference he will make. Only have to worry when he starts to sing. As Dirty Harry said, “A man has to know his limitations”. 🙂
Who’s Next of course is one of the great albums of all time. With all of the happenings in the mobile world these days, some facts to follow, it reminded me of the classic Who tune, “Goin’ Mobile”. Were they ahead of their time or what?
I’m goin’ home – And when I wanna go home – I’m goin’ mobile – Well, I’m gonna find a home – And we’ll see how it feels – Goin’ mobile – Keep me movin’ – I can pull up by the curb – I can make it on the road – Goin’ mobile – I can stop in any street – And talk with people that we meet – Goin’ mobile – Keep me movin’ – Out in the woods – Or in the city – It’s all the same to me – When I’m drivin’ free, the world’s my home – When I’m mobile – Hee, hoo! – beep beep!
