Nice concept BUT: The overture is a waste of time, too long. Linda Perry singing Dr Jimmy is just creepy, and Baba O'Riley just isn't good without the synthesizer.
I truly think this would have been better if Roger had just gotten a rock band together and done his thing.

Roger at last seems to have found a solution to his post-Who career doldrums: sing Who songs. Not the most innovative solution, but hey, it works. And "The Sea Refuses No River" works in a way Pete's overly pretentious original didn't.

Better than I thought that it might be.

I really like Rog's version of "The Sea Refuses No River", a solo Pete track-really would've been a strong Who song!
The Chieftains, Ox and Pete himself also appear-get it if you like The Who

This is not an essential CD. Daltrey's fans It was nice to hear Daltrey singing the Who material again after the previous farewell tour (not to be confused with the other farewell tour or this latest farewell tour...).
Some comfortable performances marred by some horrid guest appearances.
