New Who music

The Who always have been my favorite rock group, although U2 comes a very close second. Pete Townshend, for my money, is the best songwriter in rock. Yes, sometimes Pete can be too honest for his own good, and it has gotten him in trouble over the years. But that same honesty makes his songs truly powerful. Even as he approaches his 59th birthday on May 19, he can still pack a punch with his guitar.

When I first heard one of The Who's new songs, "Real Good Looking Boy" as background music at the Borders in Fairview Heights, I must admit I wasn't impressed. But after a few more times, I have grown to love this song, a tribute to Elvis Presley. Below is a link to a video of the song:
