Tommy (The Who)
We start the Vinyl Crusade with the quintessential journey into the mind of a deaf, dumb and blind boy...Tommy and the double album that has been labelled by fans and critics alike, "The Amazing Journey".
The Who’s Tommy has been hailed as a landmark album from the late summer of love period in 69 and it's easy to see why. It’s quite easy to pass the story of Tommy off as a something weird and unexplained, or even just a bunch of random topics compressed into an album that’s trying to be quirky. But I’ve come like so many to discover the depth of energised personal spirituality behind Pete Townsends experience in writing Tommy and the relationship between the album and spiritual leader Meher Baba.
So sit back relax, don the headphones, pour a glass of your favorite libation and immerse yourself in an Alex Ginsburg meets Hunter Thompson type journey into the healing power of music, higher vibration and frequency. This is no ordinary detailed analysis but a complete Transpersonal journey into the human conscious experience.
