Maybe inspired by Ralph McTell's 'The Ferryman' ???

Can't get enough of this type of playing from Pete. As a musician he is unparalleled in many ways. The fact that he can attack the electric guitar with the ferocity, energy and anger of a pissed off grizzly bear, and play amazingly, and then turn around and play a song like this is just one example.

I think this style of performance captures the essence of Townshend as a musician more than any "Who" song, or at least Who'd up version of his songs, ever has. Not to say one style is better than the other, but essentially polar opposites.

I agree.

Well I made good. I bought the CD of the Oceanic concert -- so happy I did. :-) The sound quality isn't great, but it's a sweet little gem nonetheless -- for true fans.

Yes, agree, drummer78. There are times when I think WCF was truly Pete's finest album. Indeed.

Pete is such a divine, heavenly creature of indefinable, sheer beauty that I think it's simply IMPOSSIBLE to tag him with a monikor like Springsteen or Bowie have. Pete's BEYOND any label one could put on him!
