You guys are all looking at and reviewing the album in hindsight.

Yes you have a much more biased perspective, I'm aware of that. Don't they say that hindsight is always 20/20? They appeal to the lowest common denominator, and they're not that great, especially in the context of other great acts of the time.
I will say that Tommy is great though.
