I'm lovin' the new Brinsley Schwarz collection that just arrived. It obviously has the original "(What's So Funny 'Bout) Peace Love and Understanding", which has been on my mind for pretty obvious reasons. #NickLowe #BrinsleySchwarz

"The band play brilliantly and the recording sound is excellent with their special echo PA system. Roger Daltrey storms into "Young Man Blues," and the band take off on a programme that includes "Substitute,""My Generation," bits from " Tommy" and "Summer Time Blues." They all play at a peak and Pete Townshend's guitar has never sounded better, and Keith Moon's drumming shows once again he is the only percussion possible for Who music. It's exciting, violent, musical and ALIVE. And what's more, by golly, it does you good!"
