John Entwistle was much better. I have no idea who this Pete guy is

Next door neighbour of John Townsend; )

The Who, obviously. Daltrey was a fantastic singer, and three exceptional musicians backing him up. Ably assisted by various class A substances down the years, I'm guessing!

Foggy - don't you know it's a cardinal sin to acknowledge anything from Be Here Now in a positive manner!?! :-)*















* I myself have been known to like a lot of the stuff off Be Here Now................

I do, hence why I said I know I suck. Actually enjoy a number of tunes on that record.

Whilst they'll never be a cultural touchstone for me, you can't deny that on these three records they did ten records' worth of pretty good material. Cotton candy doused in Jim Beam.

I'm far more pedestrian . . . for me its Morning Glory, DYKWIM and Supersonic :( I suck, I know.

Fine choices also. Supersonic especially.

Wonderwall, She’s Electric, Champagne Supernova would be my 3 to avoid.

Ridiculous talent, never seen a base played like that.

Possibly the greatest bass guitar player of all time.

Be Here Now was a great album I thought.

Be Here Now was a great album I thought.

I struggle with it now to be honest, liked it at the time.
Noel says he wishes he did Masterplan as the 3rd Album - I really wish they did, amazing set of songs that they just put in the B-side tin. Unbelievable.

Yeah, I liked the Masterplan. From Be Here Now, liked Stand by Me, All around the World, Magic Pie and Don’t go away…

I wouldn't disagree, mate.

I think Chris Wolstenholme of Muse is excellent on base especially on Hysteria.
And the 11 year old lass covering it is well beyond her years, she's already top class.

Youre right- I'll be going " down the drain like molten toothpaste".
Still it was good while it lasted. I just pray that a decent song wins, but I suspect I'll be disappointed:-(

You should have picked "I see Red " NZBlue you patriotic fellow.
