I am running around this morning, trying to get things ready for a visit to a couple of galleries over the next couple of days. I won’t be posting anything while I’m on this little roadtrip so I thought I’d just share a little music that somewhat has the tempo of my mind when I’m rolling down the road. This is a video of The Who from 1970 at the Isle of Wight doing Young Man Blues. This is a great recording so you get to see Roger Daltrey in his full-fringed, mic twirling splendor, Keith Moon at this bangin’ best and Pete Townsend tearing it up in his dystopian industrial coveralls while John Entwhistle stoically provides the bottom end that churns it all along. Just vintage great stuff.
The accompanying image shown here is a painting of mine from many years ago called Faust’s Guitar. I did a few versions of this composition and it still catches my eye. He should be wearing Pete’s coverall…
Enjoy and I’ll be back in a few days.
