QUADROPHENIA AT THE ALBERT

The Who performed Quadrophenia last night at the Royal Albert Hall, concluding the 10th year of concerts initiated by the band’s singer, Roger Daltrey, in aid of Teenage Cancer Trust.
 
Joined by a brass and string section, plus special guests Eddie Vedder (PearlJam) and Tom Meighan (Kasabian), The Who, supported by a superb multimedia sequence directed by Aubrey Powell, gave a brilliant interpretation of Pete Townshend’s edgy masterpiece.
