Produktbeschreibungen

 
Das exquisite und an vielen Stellen erstaunliche Album Quadrophenia ist sowohl ehrgeiziger als auch schwieriger zugänglich als Tommy, die erste und zugleich bekannteste Rockoper der Band. Banal ausgedrückt, ist Quadrophenia eine erstklassig vertonte Geschichte über das Erwachsenwerden. Das Album enthält einiges von The Whos Sahnehäubchen, etwa das aufgebrachte "Real Me", das zynische "Punk Meets the Godfather", die wehmütigen "5:15" und "Sea and Sand" und das ausdrucksstarke "Love, Reign O'er Me". Das Songwriting -- Pete Townshend gab sich hier die Ehre -- ist vom Allerfeinsten, ebenso die Produktion, in der es die Band sogar vermochte, Synthesizer auf herkömmliche Weise einzusetzen, was nur wenigen Rockgruppen gelingt. Dank der Mischung aus kraftvollem Songwriting und gekonnten Kompositionen zählt diese Scheibe sicher zu den gelungensten Werken von The Who. --Genevieve Williams
 
Review by Richie Unterberger
Pete Townshend revisited the rock opera concept with another double-album opus, this time built around the story of a young mod's struggle to come of age in the mid-'60s. If anything, this was a more ambitious project than Tommy, given added weight by the fact that the Who weren't devising some fantasy but were re-examining the roots of their own birth in mod culture. In the end, there may have been too much weight, as Townshend tried to combine the story of a mixed-up mod named Jimmy with the examination of a four-way split personality (hence the title Quadrophenia), in turn meant to reflect the four conflicting personas at work within the Who itself. The concept might have ultimately been too obscure and confusing for a mass audience. But there's plenty of great music anyway, especially on "The Real Me," "The Punk Meets the Godfather," "I'm One," "Bell Boy," and "Love, Reign o'er Me." Some of Townshend's most direct, heartfelt writing is contained here, and production-wise it's a tour de force, with some of the most imaginative use of synthesizers on a rock record. Various members of the band griped endlessly about flaws in the mix, but really these will bug very few listeners, who in general will find this to be one of the Who's most powerful statements.
