i reckon townshend was a great guitarist

although page stuck mainly with blues based solos, townshend integrated elements of jazz and even some baroque into his solos and playing

check out some of the solos on the live at the albert hall concert and listen to stuff like music must change from Who Are You and helpless dancer from quadrophenia

townshend was a genius
