Baba O' Riley is a fantastic song
I've seen The Who perform about 30 times and I saw Terry Riley about 15 years ago at an All Tomorrow's Parties festival in Los Angeles. If I remember correctly, his performance took place on the Queen Mary ocean liner which is now a museum.

Probably their worst song ever.
This is awesome too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rm9jBH7ufRU I love it when they say, I do karaoke, like it's an achievement. It's like when people are proud to be on Facebook - Yerse, I have a Facebook page now. Well done. Very rigorous selection policy for Facebook. They don't let any old tosser on there do they?

Saw him in Basel in 2002 or 2003. He was the supporting act for Ryan Adams.

I saw him last year when he opened up for the Replacements at the Roundhouse.
It'll be the first time seeing him headline because ever since I got into his stuff (about twelve years ago) every time he's played the UK I've been out of the country apart from one night when I already had tickets to see the reformed Ben Folds Five.
What really takes the piss though is that I actually had a ticket to see him back in 2004 but I was only going because of the support act who happened to be the bassist from the Replacements doing a solo show. I left after he'd done his set so didn't see Malin, two weeks later a mate of mine played me Malins first album and that was the day I decided to kick myself rather hard.
Nine Circles - Twinkling Stars (1982)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mzNt0yfAPDY
Great story -
"There's a touching story behind 'Twinkling Stars' by Dutch group Nine Circles. When Angular Records boss Joe Daniel managed to track down the vocalist to seek permission to use the track on this compilation, she burst into tears. She now calls herself The Rose and runs a foster home in Amsterdam, but she was 14 at the time of the recording, which she had never heard before (it was made without the group's knowledge). Asked for a photo to go on the record's sleeve, she submitted a 'Greetings From Amsterdam' postcard from the early-eighties. And there she was on the front, eating an ice cream."
One of the most unusual stories on the compilation. Nine Circles never entered a recording studio and performed only once, at a Dutch radio station in 1982. Unbeknownst to them the engineer recorded the session and over the years it was bootlegged over and over becoming a Flexipop cult track. Lidia the Rose never found out about this until I rang her up last summer. It was a bizarre and emotional phone call. Imagine being told that the music you'd made as a teenager was not lost in the ether after all but in fact a minimal electronic classic of 28 years vintage. Pretty weird.
