the middle of the stream,
you've come right into the middle
of the ride,
a rush, and that is brilliant.
Can you see the real me, mother?
Can you see the real me,
me, me, me, me,
me, me, me, me, me m-m-me... #

Pete decided that as part
of the album, he'd have this lavish,
very generous big photo book to
illustrate the story and also,
thought it would help explain
the story, particularly to the
Americans who didn't understand it.
Ethan Russell's photos
put you in that place.
As an American,
you were able to understand
because you were able to see it,
you were able to see his room,
you saw the life and it told you
the story better than a movie,
better than a video. It's all there.
The first cover I did for The Who
was the album Who's Next, here.
I was back in the United States.
I got a call from Pete.
He was pretty stressed already
because he'd been
working on this forever
and you could feel this tremendous
energy of him sort of wanting to
birth this thing, you know.
So he played me the material
and he told me the story.
And we went out to try
and sort of build that world.
We're here in Battersea in
the Patmore Estate.
My sister Maxine and I used to
live across the road here,
Our foster sister Jane used to

generally around on that
corner block there.
Along here,
which used to be a church hall,
became Ramport Studios
which was owned by The Who,
back in the early '70s.
This is myself here. I would have
been just coming up to 15.
That was an original mod outfit.
I had my hair cut very short
and cropped and black eyeliner,
which you can't see through
That's me.
And I've got on a pencil skirt,
Hush Puppy shoes
and a navy blue twinset,
little jumper underneath,
a cardigan and like Julie,
my hair cut very short,
mod-style haircut.
The girls came up,
too young to go in the pub
but they knew that I was
looking for someone to play Jimmy.
Chad was one of the local guys
that lived near the pub.
We thought he had the look for
the main character of Quadrophenia
so we introduced him to Georgiana.
I saw the attitude.
I saw the class and the attitude
and the sort of, you know..
His wheels were spinning a bit,
you know.
And he was the real thing. He had
love-hate tattooed on his hands.
Pretty early on in life for that,
you know.
He was often in bed.

up at the flats, I remember that.
Because he'd had too much to drink,
