• Listening Booth – The Who, “Imagine a Man”

  
  The Man in the Gray Flannel Suit — Authority: 106
  As much as the Who staked their claim as rock legends on high-octane numbers like “Won’t Get Fooled Again” and “My Generation”, I find that often it’s the more contemplative songs where they really shine.  Take, for instance, this cut from 1975’s The Who By Numbers .  The lyrics are bleak but the ...
