Slit Skirts - Pete Townshend cover

What soon becomes very apparent is the fact that this is a tough song to sing !!!lol...From Pete Townshend's ' All The Best Cowboy's Have Chinese Eyes'recording...A cool tune with a very cool chord structure(lots of suspended 4ths & maj7ths)...and I especially like the lyrics ' No one respects the flame quite like the fool who's badly burned '...anyway...I added some other backing things to fill it out...This is a live take...Looks like I might be on another ' WHO ' kick !!...so there may be some more coming soon!!!! Hope ya like it.....

I'm 45, been a who fan for over 30 yrs. This is my favorite Townsend solo song. You are very good. like your voice when you get rocking. You should try "Sustitute" Or "After the Fire".Glad I found your sight. Cheers Bro! How about some doors! Keep on rocking!!

Thanks modoc63 !!!Thanks for checking it !!..I have 1 Doors cover..Runnin Blue !!

Awesome..man you are as good as I always wished I could be on the guitar, and I admire your vocal talent as well. I was a fan of the Who since the 7th grade (Tommy) and was blown away by Quadrophenia..

You do them proud, I wish Pete and Roger were YouTube watchers!

[Eddie629]

Thanks bro !!!that would be cool if they watched it!!!Cheers bro !!

Great Job one of my all time fav songs.....

[FinancingHouston]

Nice job on a great song...

[bonehead1966]

Very nice..it takes on a more somber feel with thesofter vocal..but beautiful job..better than so many covers i've heard of THE WHO. townshend is a very unique nonetheless. done very well in your own way.

[chipdouglas42]

Great!

[kingster8u2]

BEAUTIFUL job! Perhaps the vocal needs a bit more "attitude" or aggression... but a FANTASTIC job notheless!

And homophobia has no place ANYPLACE but especially not in the arts...Some people's kids...
