Pete Townshend – Psychoderelict (Limited Edition)

189,99

Rare Limited Edition Half speed mastered at Abbey Road in  180gram Orange Clear Vinyl. Cover Still in Shrink.

In 1993, Pete Townshend issued his fourth true studio solo album for Atco (not counting a live album, a couple of demo collections, and a collaboration with Ronnie Lane), entitled Psychoderelict. Perhaps best known for his conceptually based works (the Who‘s TommyQuadrophenia, etc.), Townshend did indeed thread a storyline throughout the album, which appeared to be the tale of an aging rock star. Psychoderelict includes Townshend’s hardest-rocking songs since his 1980 solo album, Empty Glass, such as “English Boy” and “Let’s Get Pretentious.” Three instrumental tracks paying tribute to Townshend’s spiritual mentor, Meher Baba, incorporate the synth loop from the Who‘s “Baba O’Riley,” the best being “Meher Baba M4” (although strangely, the synths sound remarkably similar to the Who‘s 1978 hit “Who Are You”).
