Tales From The Who Tuesday December 4, 1973
A sell-out crowd of 19,500 packed the Spectrum for a gross of $135,000. The show was recorded for broadcast on the King Biscuit Flower Hour, as was the following night in Largo, Maryland. It was an edited version of this night's concert that was aired on March 31, 1974. After a lengthy version of 'My Wife' follower by a superbly fast and hard performance of 'My Generation', which maintained its energy through seven minutes and some brilliant guitar soloing from Townshend, the Quadrophenia section of the show was less impressive. Pete said "The better part of an album what we wrote about ourselves being Mods, when we were little. The story about the Mod kid and we call it Quadrophenia... Being Mod meant a lot more in England I think than it ever did in America. I think you think of it being a Carnaby street thing... And it's not just a looking back, it's a kind of bringing up to date. Quadrophenia's about where we all are today, maybe you too. The story is set on a rock in the middle of a stormy sea. In Quadrophonic, as well!" Pete started playing a bit a little too soon before the tape of 'I Am The Sea' had finished. Explaining 'I'm One', Pete said: "The next song is called 'I'm One', what I sing and it's about the way I felt, 'cause I wrote it. When I was a nipper I always used to feel that the guitar was all I had... I wasn't tough enough to be in a gang, I wasn't good looking enough to be with the birds, not clever enough to make it at school, not good enough on my feet to be a good football player, I was a fucking loser. I think everyone feels that way at some point. And somehow being a Mod - even though I was too old to be a Mod really - I wrote this song with that in mind. Jimmy, the hero of the story, is kinda thinking he hasn't got much going for himself but at least he's one."
