Unpopular opinion, but THE WHO SUCKS. I like a couple of songs, and that's it.

"Roger Daltrey's voice is like fingernails on a chalkboard!" - Keef Richards.

Now I remember when Daltrey went solo and released a song called Free Me. The video sucked, my TV almost exploded with his screams.

They’d have needed two guitarists to replace Lindsey. Pete Townsend for one, plus bring back Jeremy Spencer.
Ahem…..

I dug his cover of Murray Head’s “Say It Ain’t So,” which was The Who minus Pete. Incidentally, the Murray Head version had Bob Weston on slide guitar.

I woke up in a Illume doorway
A policeman knew my dress
He said, "You can go sleep away tonight
If you can get up and walk away away away away away

I staggered back to the underground velvet
And the breeze blew back my blue hair

I remember throwin' Lindsey around
And preachin' from my chair!!!!

awwww who are you ? (christine) who who, who who...

I’m still blown away the band considered Eric Clapton a realistic option and they didn’t go for it.

I don't think it is a good idea to replace (any) Fleetwood Mac member with a well known successful artist. Cause of course they would bring their hits to the FM show. I like that in a Prince's Trust Concert or in those called supergroup bands like Asia or Travelling Wilburys. But combining known artists in a band, it reduces its legitimacy.
