      Not at all, I agree with that to extent. All of the songs he wrote for The Who have a flavor of Roger or Pete in the vocals, which I think is to match the bands “sounds”. He sounds much more unique within his solo work, my favorite album by him is too late the hero. Joe Walsh is guitar on that one. Maybe check it out if you like

    Here is a funny story from this '79 tour concerning My Wife: As The Ox says, "we are changing it up from Boris this night".
    In New Haven, my friend had front seats right in front of Pete. According to him, "his brother kept asking for My Wife and they played it"
    "Yeah, right, whatever (lol).
    So, I get a copy of the concert on CD and I'm listening on headphones at work one day and sure enough, right before My Wife, Pete quietly goes to the mic and says, "we have a request from the front row for My Wife, so we're going to play it"
    Too funny - and impossible to hear without the headphones as we'd missed it for years.

    I think Pete missed every single chord change, yet he still manages to recover immediately without completely losing it. That's the difference between Pete and John. John could play seamlessly through anything, because he was not only the best bass guitarist in rock history, he was also the most intuitive. Intuition is so very important during live performances.

    I saw them in Detroit at the Masonic temple 11/29/1979 just before they went on the national stadium tour. they wanted to play a small theater before playing the sold out stadiums. Roger apologized about the sound because the equipment was meant for stadiums not a 4,000 seat theater. I was 17 years old an was in complete awe sitting 10 rows away. i found the audio of the concert on youtube and was amazed at the quality. i now understand why they wanted to do a small test concert before they hit the big stage. either way, what an experience for a young teenager!

    Kenney Jones is such a good drummer. It hurts to see this and imagine what it was like for him to jump in after his friend Mooney died. He's precise and capable, not bombastic. Members of The Who (except for Ox) had to take chances with no safety net (besides Ox) in order to deliver their maximum energy, and Kenney had a different approach. But if he did explode and play like a wild man, everyone would accuse him of trying to be like Moon. I really feel for him. It was an impossible position, and he did very well under the circumstances.

Definitely the best Who show i saw post Moon. And the only show i have ever been to that i have a video of which makes it priceless to me. And i still have my ticket stub...$8...back when a concert cost about the same as a new album. Amazing what's happened to concert prices.
