For awhile there, ol' Pete had a pretty nifty solo career going.
Who Came First, his 1972 solo debut, sidestepped comparisons to the Who by tackling spiritual themes with low-key charm, qualities that resurfaced on
Rough Mix, his wonderful 1977 duo record with Ronnie Lane. Then came
Empty Glass, which was both grand and successful, like peak Who. From then on, Townshend's been mostly grandiose and unsuccessful. Meaning this solo overview ain't half bad and is mostly very good.
