I’ve never been in love with these earlier Who recordings- the band sound too restrained compared to how we know they could be on stage. Some incredible songwriting from Townsend, as well as strong interpretations of James Brown tracks, but not the band at their finest. B

A little different for a Who album. Seems like some more experimentation and guest artists. It was all kind of middle of the road for me though.
The best Who album so far (Tommy and Sell Out did not impress). That being said, I'm still not super taken with their sound. It probably fucking ruled in 1965 though. For that reason, I will boost it slightly. 3.5/5
