I know a lot of folks don't like the movie "Tommy", but I must say the soundtrack has a LOT of good music on it.

I gave this old soundtrack a listen today. Played through my Altec 19 speakers.....it was a cool listen session!

Some great tracks: "Acid Queen"
"Amazing Journey"
"Eyesight To The Blind"
"Smash The Mirror"

Ann Margarets vocals throughout are just wonderful. That lady had a voice!

Guess I'm not one of those people as I very much enjoyed Tommy when it came out. I was front and center. Whew, Ann Margret mmmmmmmmmmm one of my favorite sweeties of all time. :yes:

There is a rare version of Tommy performed with The London Symphony Orchestra. It is absolutely sensational. I highly recommend trying to find it if your're a Tommy fan. Also the SACD of the original Tommy album is superb.

These pricey deals don't teach us
Your freedom doesn't reach us
Enlightenment escapes us
Awareness doesn't shape us
How can all this trivia
Take us to the goal you reached?
We came here to be like you;
to find the world [?] you preached.

The LSO Tommy is pretty good too. I don't think it is particularly rare, though.

I have it! I recorded it years ago when it came out on my Garrard AT-60 turntable / Shure M55E to my Sony TC-600 reel to reel. Later I transferred it to VHS Hi Fi. Still sounds great!
I think I have the soundtrack for the movie on vinyl.
