2676 The Who - Doctor Jekyll & Mr. Hyde

From: Call Me Lightning (single); Year: 1969; Genre: Hard Rock
I had no real song in mind for today, but this track happened to come to mind. I'm often one that likes songs written by John Entwistle; this one is no different.
From what I understand this one was written about drummer Keith Moon's odd and erratic behaviour. The use of the tri-meter in the vocals really sells the feeling of insanity in the song as well as John Entwistle's vocals; it's definitely a gem for a b-side track.

Hear Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde on YouTube.
