Time for a new regular feature on this ol’ blog which will cover some of my all time favorite songs as well as shining a spotlight on some newer acts that you should check out if you’re hankerin’ for a taste of something different. I’ll keep my comments fairly short and simple so you can enjoy listening while reading my heartfelt and often rambling musings. Need to keep some things kinda short for those with short term attention spans 😉
Hilarious to think these days that many youngsters (and uneducated oldsters) hear this and go “oh yeah, the CSI:Miami theme!” but I’m hear to tell YOU dear reader that this may damn near be the greatest 8+ minutes of musical goodness you’ll ever come across. I’ve never been one to like songs with simple structures; I’ve got a have a bit of mania and chaotic intensity from time to time to really satisfy my tastes. And WGFA? Is anybody playing the same riff? That’s the beauty within. John Entwiste’s bassline is dive bombing everything in site, Pete Townshend’s slashing the guitar with massive power chords, Roger Daltrey is roaring with manic glee, and Keith Moon is a drum tornado all throughout as these four musical icons play o’er top a propulsive synth line. Powerful and an anthem of monstrous proportions- watch the live version from The Kids Are Alright and your fists will be punching the sky by song’s end. What’s not to like?

Definitely an all-time top 10 track for me with no doubt. PURE rock n roll perfection! Actually, this idea might be a little easier than the desert island albums because there’s only a handful of songs that I NEVER get tired of hearing. THIS is one for sure!
