Pete Townshend - White City: A Novel (Atco, 1985)

Pete Townshend - White City: A Novel
I won't pen eleventh Who disc yet. Ta!



Notes

Agreed! I'll purge this bad LP. Not sorry...sane!

John Entwistle - Too Late the Hero (Atco, 1981)

John Entwistle - Too Late the Hero
To the sole talent: Rejoin the Who!



Notes
  1. "Sole talent": On this album, Entwistle was backed by Joe Walsh and Joe Vitale. As Wikipedia notes, "the album was generally poorly received. Entwistle soon returned to the Who."

John Entwistle - Smash Your Head Against the Wall (Track, 1971)

John Entwistle - Smash Your Head Against the Wall
A snide man largely jettisons The Who. What a lush!



Notes
  1. "Largely": The Who's Keith Moon played on Entwistle's debut solo album.
  2. "Lush": No less an authority than Rolling Stone concurs.

Och, we cheated fans!

Roger Daltrey - Rocks in the Head (Atlantic, 1992)

Roger Daltrey - Rocks in the Head
Hi! Leathery Rog's record tanked.



Notes
  1. Please note that the "hi" in this anagram is an interjection rather than a greeting. University of Redlands notes that "the meanings [interjections] express are typically emotional, such as: surprise, pleasure, realization, resignation, pity, grief, repetition, inquiry, agreement, attention, pain, hesitation, etc." In this context, we'd go with "all of the above."

Pete Townshend - All the Best Cowboys Have Chinese Eyes
Evanescent solo shite between LPs by The Who. He decays!



Notes
  1. Alternative anagram: He honestly believes he's a poet?! Eschew bawdy contents!
