The Who’s 1973 concept album “Quadrophenia” is the focus of this rock doc, which features insight from the band’s guitarist, Pete Townshend., Originally released in 1973, The Who’s landmark rock album Quadrophenia was instantly hailed as a modern masterpiece and a worthy successor to Tommy and Who’s Next. Inspired by something very specific and individualistic – frontman Pete Townshend’s memories of “growing up tough,” as a mod in the gritty streets of London – it nevertheless retained the same epic feel that characterized the band’s prior efforts. The title is a riff on schizophrenia, meant to signify the four conflicting personalities of band members Townshend, Daltrey, Entwistle and Moon. This documentary draws on interviews and other elements for a long, thorough examination of the varied events that led up to and followed the release of the album, including Townshend’s vision for the record, Moon’s shocking collapse on stage at the outset of the Quadrophenia tour, Quadrophenia’s critical reception, and much more., The Who’s 1973 concept album “Quadrophenia” is the focus of this rock documentary, which features insight from the band’s guitarist, Pete Townshend., In his home studio and revisiting old haunts in Shepherds Bush and Battersea, Pete Townshend opens his heart and his personal archive to revisit ‘the last great album the Who ever made’, one that took the Who full circle back to their earliest days via the adventures of a pill-popping mod on an epic journey of self-discovery. But in 1973 Quadrophenia was an album that almost never was. Beset by money problems, a studio in construction, heroin-taking managers, a lunatic drummer and a culture of heavy drinking, Townshend took on an album that nearly broke him and one that within a year the band had turned their back on and would ignore for nearly three decades. With unseen archive and in-depth interviews from Townshend, Roger Daltrey, Keith Moon, John Entwistle and those in the studio and behind the lens who made the album and photo booklet.
