Quadrophenia Reconsidered
While reconsidering Endless Wire, I came across this fantastic review and reconsideration of Quadrophenia. I can certainly go with any well-constructed argument that Quadrophenia is the best and most important rock album ever made--Murphy does miss some of the more obvious candidates for best double-album, Double Nickels on the Dime; Zen Arcade; and Daydream Nation, and lists some pretty awful ones in their place--even though I'm not 100% convinced that it is the best ever. (A good argument for it is quite convincing.) It doesn't matter a bit. The Who's best might be the best ever. Enough said.
