THE NATURALS

"IT WAS YOU" bw "LOOK AT ME NOW"

PARLOPHONE RECORDS R 5202 ~ Original 7" 45 from 1964


How about this - the 'B' side actually, of this very rare 45, has the FIRST COMPOSITION by PETE TOWNSHEND of The WHO.
It was about the time The WHO were playing working men's clubs and before Keith Moon joined the band. They were soon to make a brief name-change to 'THE HIGH NUMBERS' for one 45 penned by their manager, before reverting back to THE WHO. Pete had a music-associated father, so at a tender age and a burning ambition to make music, he got around to taking an attempt at songwriting!
I think he wrote the lyrics, with the members of the band composing the instrumentation. It made the flip side to this single, and there began the historic legend of one of the greatest Rock composers of our time. Tommy wasn't even blinded yet, and Jimmy hadn't got a scooter - this was Pete's debut!
I have to tell you it's NOT a pounding chord smasher, as that style hadn't been invented yet ;>)
A decent effort for the fledgeling destroyer of eardrums, and only 2 years before 'Substitute'
