It's a rare day indeed that I get a CD from an artist that I can truthfully say does not have a bad track in the bunch. I'm more than happy to announce that’s exactly what I must say about this one. There simply isn’t a bad one in the bunch. No fillers here at all.
Quadrophenia has a pleasantly varied, mix of 17 tracks that are very well written and brilliantly performed songs by these clearly outstanding musicians. With many of the songs displaying a lot of the kind emotion that makes for a really great listen. Seemingly drawing from what I can only imagine are their own personal experiences. At different points touching on the most real emotions of love, and the pain of failed relationships can certainly be heard.
Quadrophenia is a first rate CD, delivering a little something for everyone. I give it my highest recommendation. It’s quite simply great listening. A must buy if you're even mildly into Rock music.
While the entire CD is really very good some of my favorites are track 5 - The Punk And The Godfather, track 2 - disc 2 - Sea And Sand, and track 7 - disc 2 - Love, Reign O’er Me
My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 1 - I Am The Sea. Wow!
