Return of The Who’s Quadrophenia

Weekend

Available for over a year

The Who’s songwriter and lead guitarist Pete Townshend is teaming up with an opera singer, a symphony orchestra and a choir for a new version of their 1973 album Quadrophenia. The tenor Alfie Boe is taking on the part originally sung by The Who's lead singer Roger Daltrey. They're performing in July at the Royal Albert Hall in London and their album Classic Quadrophenia is coming out next month. Weekend's Dee Sebastian has been speaking to Alfie Boe. (Photo: Alfie Boe.
