    One of the greatest albums ever, & arguably the best album by The Who.
    
    Along with The Wall, this is one of the best Rock Operas / concept albums ever!

    Started this one last night but didn't finish. Gotta say, Townshend's guitar work is phenomenal. I never appreciated this band much but I'm glad I'm discovering how good they really are.

    This rock opera was crazy good. It was surreal and strange but so much fun to listen to. The 1975 film was a zany. dazzling, star filled affair that I could watch again and again and never get sick... more

Description

Japanese-only SHM-CD (Super High Material CD) pressing of this classic rock album. SHM-CDs can be played on any audio player and delivers unbelievably high-quality sound. You won't believe it's the same CD! Universal. 2008.Tommy had the dubious distinction of being the first-ever rock opera; however, it's none the worse for that, Ken Russell's adaptation notwithstanding. Due largely to Pete Townshend's skill as a songwriter and composer, Tommy tells a coherent story and includes quality rock and roll at the same time, an impressive feat by itself. While surprisingly more linear than the later Quadrophenia, Tommy boasts several songs that stand up well on their own, including the classic "Pinball Wizard," "The Acid Queen," "I'm Free," and "Sally Simpson." Much of the rest doesn't make much sense lyrically unless you listen to the entire album, but you'll probably want to do that anyway, preferably with the lights low and the stereo cranked. --Genevieve Williams
