White City is the third part of what I see as a trilogy of albums reflecting Townshend's emotional states outwith the rock lunacy of The Who. First up was the rough edged Empty Glass, in which Townshend seemed to be battling his demons and addictions. His next solo effort was the clean & sober Chinese Eyes, in which Townshend embraced the 80's, while trying to compensate for his past, most notable in the track Somebody Saved Me. Finally we come to White City, in which Townshend finally comes home, retracing his steps back to the area where he grew up. Consistantly one of our finest and most imaginative songwriters, Townshend's work is literature combined with music, there to tell a story, to say something about who we are, as well as who he is. For me, these three albums are a vital part of my collection and no matter what my mood, there's always something there to reflect on.

Lost Gem Unearthed !

Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
This album is a stunning contrast to the mid 80's cheeese that was being released by most artists at the time. This Album was great in its original release and even better with the 3 bonus tracks. Well crafted and produced songs played and sung by this gifted songsmith and his band along with the great Dave Gilmour who lends his talents here as well. This is a heartfelt and personal played with passion and precision along with some of the greatest lyrics he's ever penned. This is an Essential Masterpiece that sadly never received it's due.
