Music reviews of The Who by Numbers
Music Review: An Overlooked Masterpiece from Townshend & Co.
Rating: 4 Stars
By Numbers may not possess some of the grander aspects of previous Who outings but it is a solid album which Townshend showed that the guy who once wrote "I hope I die before I get old" could and
live it down. "Slipkid" and "Squeezebox" are memorable songs.

Title: WHO BY NUMBERS
Street Release Date: 11/19/1996
Genre: ROCK/POP
This 1975 collection excels in large part due to its modest goal. It's the Who's singer-songwriter record. Without the ostensible shield his "rock operas" provided, Pete Townshend's personal demons strut about nakedly. Not a pretty sight, but an involving spectacle nevertheless. "They Are All in Love" and "How Many Friends" are forgotten Who songs, but they've aged beautifully. John Entwistle's "Success Story" sequences nicely with the rest of the album. And "However Much I Booze," "Dreaming from the Waist," and "In a Hand or a Face" are great decade-early exercises in mid-life self-pity. There are only three bonus tracks here--live versions of "Squeeze Box," "Dreaming from the Waist," and the earlier "Behind Blue Eyes"--but By Numbers is such a cohesive collection that they're less welcome extras than annoying distractions. Still, By Numbers now stands as one of the linchpins in a great band's catalog. --Steven Stolder
