    This is coming for a diehard Who fan: its good, but can't compare to Who's Next or Quadrophenia or any of their old stuff for that matter. None the less, its still worth your money. Although next album around, I expect a little bit better, Townshend.

    No, it does not rank with the band's best work. But yes, as long as Pete Townshend and Roger Daltrey walk the earth in tandem, the Who live on.

    Endless Wire turns out to be more effective and more coherent than it has any right to be.

    The nine tracks you must navigate before you get to the mini-opera seem like a trudge.
