I absolutely agree. Pete is brilliant on stage and with his writing. No one can sing like Roger. His swirling Mic. His defiant marching. Keith's crazy drum style -- extremely complex rhythms. And John, with his HUGE, custom bass, and gigantic speakers that crush the eardrums. I saw them live at Winterland, and my mind and ears were blown.

Saw them in 1974, my first ever gig at the age of 13. The support acts included Lou Reed and Bad Company. Then The Who came on and COMPLETELY blew the football stadium away. How could you not fall in love with rock music and live concerts after that?

It’s like the Doors trying to replace Jim Morrison. Sure you could try but you become something entirely different.
