    Got To Give is such a banger.  It ends up in my head daily.  This is going to be awesome live.

    I never got in to The Who, but since I'm loving this song, I might check them out.  Anyone have a recommend album to start with?
    I'm not much of a The Who fan. Find them kind of boring. But I really enjoy Who's Next. Like @a@alexross42 mentioned

    As mentioned, Who’s Next is a great place to start. Their live album ‘Live at Leeds’ is also regarded as one / if not the greatest live album ever.

    Who’s Next and Quadrophenia are great places to start. I also really like their first album - My Generation.

    I don't see anybody really talking about this one.  What a great mid-tempo rocker!  I'm guessing if it appeared on any other post 1998 album, everybody would be talking about it.  But amongst the other greatness on Dark Matter, it's not getting much notice or praise.  Reminds me a little of a Cropduster meets Unthought Known.  Great track!
    Up here so high I start to shake, Up here so high the sky I scrape, I've no fear but for falling down, So look out below I am falling now, Falling down,...not staying down, Could’ve held me up, rather tear me down, Drown in the river

    More love for Got to Give.  Didn't realize that this would end up the rare gem from 2024 Leg 1.

    This song is so cool.  There's times when I'm listening and continue to find new sounds in this track.  It's very layered.  Very cool.

    Was hoping they would play it in Seattle. Crossing fingers it'll make its way on a Philly or Baltimore setlist this September.

    It was funny when Ed intro’d this one in Vancouver saying the next one they’d never played before…So many people got all excited thinking it was gonna be Stevie and when they realized it was Got To Give they actually groaned in disappointment. Goes to show, appreciate what you get in the moment. People didn’t realize how lucky they were to get Got To Give.

    I was thinking Something Special was going to be the tough one to get from this record.  Maybe in the long run it will be if Ed's family isn't with him as much.  Hope to get Got to Give in Europe!

    Meaty Beaty Big and Bouncy was a compilation album that I played a whole lot when I started getting into The Who. Might be the best "Best Of" collection of theirs. 30 Years of Maximum R & B was also cool but that is 4 CDs and includes very deep cuts. Quadrophenia was definitely the album that pulled me in and made me a huge Who fan. The Who By Numbers is underrated but is a solid, fantastic album.
