The Who by Barrie Wentzell

Photographer: Barrie Wentzell

Location: Victoria Station, London

Edition: 50

Date: 1968

"I went along with Chris Welch, writer for the Melody Maker, to interview Pete who wanted to tell us about his new idea for a’ concept album’. It was a cold and dark day and after much chat about music, art and the guru, Meha Babba he told us about this story of a deaf, dumb and blind kid that he was working on. As I was taking this shot near the window in the failing light, I said that it seemed rather a sad and depressing theme and that I couldn’t see how it would be accepted or could become a hit. Shows how much I knew since as destiny was to show, “Tommy” became The Who’s biggest and best success!"
