Last year I invented 5:15, a wholiday that celebrates the greatest album ever--The Who's Quadrophenia. Lapsed Who fans might listen to a few cuts of Quadrophenia--say, The Real Me or Love Reign O'er Me--to mark the special date. True believers listen to the whole album--and watch the movie too! 5:15 isn't exactly Christmas yet, but we haven't had two millenia and infinite newspaper circulars to promote the wholiday, either. Just wait, it'll catch on. At 5:15 I will be listening to the Quadrophenia--the track 5:15, to be precise. Any special plans for this wholiday?

And of course, only the genius that is Roger Daltrey would put Dom Deluise (RIP) in a "rock" song...

Boy does this take me back (circa 1973). My buddies and I spent many an hour hanging out in my college dorm room, partaking, and listening to Quadrophenia - waxing philosophically. Good times.

Are you saying Dom Deluise never won an Oscar? The Daltrey song that you refer to--his best solo offering--was penned by Pete Townshend. Why they didn't just record it as a Who song? I don't know. Here's a YouTube clip of the version with the Chieftans....

You have got to be kidding me...

Actually what I was saying was WTF!!! every time I hear that awful song.

I kinda agree with that.
