The word is New

#PeteTownshend and #RonnieLane, “Heart to Hang Onto,” from Rough Mix,1977

Lyric:
“Give me a heart to hang onto
Give me a soul that's tailored new
Give me a heart to hang onto
A heart to hang onto”

While this album is a joint project by Pete and Ronnie (Faces, #SmallFaces), #Townshend fans regard it as Pete's solo album, with interruptions. Here we find Pete storytelling, not with the bombastic stylings of #RockOpera or stiff #RadioPlay but on a human scale in a series of verse-sized vignettes.

While no one would compare Ronnie Lane’s homespun vocals with #RogerDaltry’s #RockGod delivery, Pete uses the interplay of his vocals with Lane’s similarly to the way he trades off vocals in #TheWho, Townshend’s thin, high voice speaking in the vulnerable first person.

After glimpses of these lonely lives, the poignant melody gives way to a crescendo of desperation, drifting away unresolved in a twinkling of keys.

@virgiltibbs It's a constant on my playlist. But these show how talented #Townshend was and remains.

"Mythique! Roger #Daltrey, Pete #Townshend accompagné du groupe Thé Roots, interprètent ‘We Won’t Get Fooled Again’ dans une classe avec des instruments de musique pour écoliers. :-)"
