Editorial Review:
Album Description:
Reissue of the British rock icon's sophomore album, originally issued in 1966. 20 tracks available for the first in digitally remastered stereo. Polydor.
Amazon.com:
The Who's second album is a mite inconsistent, not least because all four members were encouraged by a business deal to churn out songs. A Quick One nonetheless manages several Who classics, notably "A Quick One While He's Away," Pete Townshend's first longform (10 minutes) piece, and John Entwistle's licensed-to-ill "Whiskey Man" and "Boris the Spider." The band's sense of humor, however, gives way on rote pop tunes like Roger Daltrey's "See My Way." But CD bonus tracks like the great "Disguises" (included in a murkier mix than that on the 30 Years of Maximum R&B boxed set) and the Beach Boys tributes "Bucket T" and "Barbara Ann" are a distinct help. --Rickey Wright

The Who-Quick One (Happy Jack) ***1/2
Released originally in 1966, the Who's second album A Quick One (Happy Jack) is their most uneven album of the Keith Moon period. That is not to say that it is a weak album because it is not.
The title came from the record companies overly zealous attitude forcing the band to rush and pump out an full album. Hence, A Quick One. This is what leads to the unevenness of the album. While many of the songs are great and some of which are ... Read More

Well in some ways it's an apt title; it's a "Quick One" because if you listen to this more than once you'll only spend time on a few songs.
I'll say it right here, this is not a *bad* album by any means. There is nothing unlistenable here, the worst offence that A Quick One has is to have high ratio of filler to good songs. The story is well known, the record company decided to give the band members a lump sum of money if they all wrote their individual songs for the album. Of these ... Read More

This was just the second album for the Who and they were experimenting with different sounds.Pete Townshend was always the Who's main song writer but on this album special arrangements were made to pay advances for song writing and each member of the band wrote a couple songs. Most notable was John Entwistle's bass heavy "Boris The Spider" which became a staple of their live performances. Keith Moon wrote a rather bizarre instrumental "Cobwebs And Strange" which uses various unusual instruments not ... Read More

After a Kinks-esque effort on My Generation, it didn't take long for The Who's true eccentricities to shine through, as is apparent with the presence of "Boris the Spider" on the front end of this album. From there, the album weaves an unexpected combination of sounds, sounding part Yardbirds and part Cream.

My mentor mentioned that playing "The Who" would help me when I am writing... especially those late night deadline crunching 2am stints to get the assignments in by 8am the next morning...
Doesn't matter what time of day (okay, yes it does... The WHo are not quite as effective before 12noon :) )... this has truly proved to inspire my creative energy and helped me flow much better.
I highly recommend for the creative types - if you get any kind of "block," throw on The Who in the background ... Read More

Cunard Line has announced that its new
85,000-ton cruise ship, which is scheduled to enter service in 2008, will be
named Queen Victoria. Based in Southampton, England, the Cunard Queen Victoria will be
the second largest Cunard Queen ever built. Together with the current flagship,
Queen Elizabeth 2, and Queen Mary 2, the biggest passenger liner ever, the
Cunard fleet will include three Queens for the first time – truly the most
famous ocean liners in the world.

Cruise
Queen Victoria will enter service in the company’s 165th anniversary and will
operate cruises to and from Southampton to the Mediterranean, the Canaries,
Northern Europe, the Caribbean, and South America. The 1,968-passenger vessel
will feature a covered wraparound promenade deck, a forward-facing observation
lounge, a large Lido pool with a retractable magrodome, and 10 of the12
passenger decks will be served by exterior glass-walled lifts. Like QE2 and QM2,
the liner will have a Queens Grill, offering single-seating gourmet dining.
There will also be a unique Colonial Restaurant on Deck 11 with spectacular
panoramic views.
Queen Victoria cruises will offer a wide range of
accommodations, large standard outside cabins (170 square feet) and a high
percentage of balcony cabins (67%), thereby bringing new levels of luxury and
choice to passengers preferring to depart from a European port. Cruise

The on-board menus, entertainment and lecture program will be geared to British
tastes and the currency will be sterling. Queen Victoria will fly the red
ensign; she will have the name of her home port, Southampton, on her stern, and
she will have a British Captain and Officers.
In design terms the cruise Cunard Queen Victoria will have an undeniably British feel with two British design
teams being responsible for the interior of the Cunard Queen Victoria.
Queen Victoria is being built at Italy’s Fincantieri shipyard in Marghera, near
Venice, with her keel laid on July 12, 2003. One of the most technically
advanced shipbuilders in the world, Fincantieri has built more than 7,000
vessels, including many for Cunard’s parent Carnival Corporation. Originally
ordered as the fifth in a series of five 'Vista' class ships for sister company
Holland America, the contact was signed over to Cunard before the keel was laid
and Holland America then ordered a further ship for delivery in 2006.
Enjoy a Cruise on Queen Victoria. The
lead ship in the series, Zuiderdam, entered service in December 2002.
No cruise schedules have yet been
announced. Her float out is scheduled for May 2007, prior to
her delivery in March 2008.She is scheduled to enter service in April 2008. |
