I've Had Enough - Pete Townshend Demo

[cc92103]

Very simply, Townshend is pure genius, end of story. A gift to us all.

[Spankielars]

Did Roger do anything else than just singing the lyrics that Pete wrote?

I've had enough of Childhood, I've had enough of grave's

[bwc3821]

great song but the intro could really use Moonie's drums to kick start it

[bassfeile]

Was that an album ? With demos only ?

If someone can help , please -

Thank's , rock on !

[bassfeile]

Incridible - Awesome early version - like a flower , becomes a fruit .

Thank you for sharing this !

[mod69]

the birth of the best album in rock history

[johnflaherty]

Amazin' how much effort Townshend put on his demos.

[Pulsar205]

do you have the '73 version? a YouTube search only gives the speeded up film soundtrack and I hate it when they do that

[Pulsar205]

weird ending..awsome

this version's not so angry, and it needs Roger's angry delivery

very very interesting though..and i'll be back :)

not as good as the who

[TheEditorialist]

It is The Who.

I think you meant to say it's not as good as the final cut.

Pro'ly not. But after you've heard the final cut 1,000 times, these demos really satisfy a desire you didn't even know you had.

[hrothgleas]

It's not the Who - it's the songwriter's first vision.

I agree that it's fascinating to see how the rest of the band and studio time changed some things - others are exactly the same....

My jackets gonna be cut slim and checked

maybe a touch of seersucker with an open neck

I ride a GS Scooter with my hair cut neat

I wear my wartime coat in the wind and sleat

[DarthMurray]

I don't really know, i've never heard Scoop, in fact, i got all the demos from the bootleg you see in the video.

[slotwinski1414]

well, no 5:15, since he wrote it on the bus ride over, hadn't he?

[DarthMurray]

I think so, there is no data of a bootleg containing a demo of that one also.

I'm still waiting to upload 2 other demos, Love Reign O'er Me, and Brrr.

[slotwinski1414]

excellent

brrr... i think ... is that one from Scoop?

I never heard it yet, my dad lost half the vynil, so. But i heard the unused piano before

these are great!

[TheWhoinvasion65]

@slotwinski1414 he wrote 515 on the train lol

[slotwinski1414]

@TheWhoinvasion65 yeah same thing. You know what I meant

An interesting thing I noticed, is that while he says he wrote Pinball Wizard in one night (after getting that low-review from his friend-critique who liked pinball) ... there are actually a 'number' of different demo versions of it. I just wonder how many demos he used to do to present before the band?
