A Quick One (Happy Jack)
60年代英伦摇滚的代表人物,The Who在1966年推出的一张专辑,在这张专辑中他们首次尝试了摇滚歌剧的概念,专辑同名歌曲A Quick One, While She's Away长达9分钟,引起了强烈反响,这种风格在后来的《Tommy》专辑中发展到了高峰。专辑的美国版名为Happy Jack。 A Quick One is the second album by English rock band The Who, released in 1966. The album was also released under the title Happy Jack on Decca Records in the United States, where the song "Happy Jack" was a top 40 hit. Rolling Stone magazine ranked the album #383 on its list of the 500 greatest albums of all time, published in 2003. The Who's second album departs from the R&B emphasis of the first. Part of the marketing push for the album was a requirement that each band member should write at least two of the songs on it, though Roger Daltrey only wrote one, so this is the Who album least dominated by Pete Townshend's writing. It was recorded at IBC Studios, Pye Studios and Regent Sound, in London, England in 1966 with Kit Lambert as the record producer. "Boris the Spider" was written after John Entwistle had been out drinking with Rolling Stones bassist Bill Wyman. They were making up funny names for animals when Entwistle came up with the song. The chorus utilises vocals that influenced the vocal style of death metal singers.
