Stay tuned and do not adjust your set--my review of It's Hard will be posted on Wednesday, followed by the follow-up to It's Hard that never was (1983's aborted Siege album)...

custom55, thanks so much for posting, that was awesome! I'd only seen the clip of him doing That's Alright Mama from a DVD, so it was great to see all that additional footage, particularly of After The Fire. I've also never seen the footage of Townshend the office worker at Faber and Faber--not much rock-n-roll action there, but then again, it is hard to be windmilling while strolling through those narrow office corridors.

While browsing through CD Universe for a copy of It's Hard, I just found out about two new Who-related DVDs soon to hit the market. One is an independent doc treatment of the Keith Moon years titled From The Bush To The Valley (release date: August 28; $16.25; United States Distribution)--but those independent treatments can always be hit or miss... The real treat to anticipate is a vintage concert film: Live in Texas '75 ($13.03; Eagle Rock Entertainment) to be released October 9.

By the way, the regular edition of It's Hard is reasonably priced at $11.59, whereas the Japanese import edition is $55.39.

Pete's demo of Theresa/Athena is absolutely fantastic. I love the Who dearly but I nearly always prefer his demos over the bands versions, especially from Who Are You on, ie: Sister Disco, New Song, However Much I booze (No Way Out), Did You Steal My Money, You Better You Bet, Don't Let Go The Coat. That scene regarding the letter he never sent from the Quadrophenia documentary really explains a lot regarding his later material and his fall into drugs and alcoholism.
