I never did get into the Who. I saw Pete Townsend in Chertsey years ago and was going to chat because his birthday is the same day as mine (not same year), but I thought that was a lame reason to stop him. I also did a bit of business with his studio in Chertsey or Twickenham, can't remember now, but he wasn't there. I've had a drink or two in the Railway Hotel in Harrow where they used to play way back.
The album's front cover photo, shot by Kate Simon, was taken in the alleyway directly opposite the front door of the band's 'Rehearsal Rehearsals' building in Camden Market. Drummer Terry Chimes, though a full member of the Clash at the time, did not appear in the picture as he had already decided to leave the group.

If you liked the first album, you should try the others too. The first three albums, as I said, are very much alike between them. "End Of The Century", the 1980 LP Phil Spector produced for them, is a very controversial record among fans of punk rock music, but it's a great record, in my opinion, although I'm also a Spector fan, so I'm hardly impartial.
They were a great band, one of the greatest ever. I'm sorry I never got to see them live, but I'm proud to have in my collection one of their later albums, "Mondo Bizarro" (1992), signed by all four members. I really treasure it. It was a gift from my brother.
