The story behind
The Who released a song called Whiskey Man that is on the album A Quick One. It was recorded in 1966, in London studios, and is considered part of a long suite that forms the end of the album. The song has a fast rhythm, with a loud and slightly distorted guitar, as if it were about to break. The idea of the suite came about because the group wanted all members to write songs, not just Pete Townshend. So they put together several pieces, some short, others longer, and ended up forming a sort of musical story. Whiskey Man is one of those pieces, and although it is not the most famous track on the album, it has a touch of hard rock that makes it special. ↓ Skip to chordsIntro 1
