| | Rolling Stone : Endless Wire : Review (Site not responding. Last check: ) |
 | | And in Endless Wire, the first Who album of new songs since 1982's It's Hard, Daltrey and Townshend have made a record as brazen in its way and right for its day as The Who Sell Out and Tommy were in theirs. |
 | | The closest thing to a good laugh on the album is "God Speaks of Marty Robbins," in which Townshend, alone on vocals and guitar, dares to play Him on the eve of creation, looking forward to finishing the job so He can listen to his favorite country singer. |
 | | And there is one line in Endless Wire's "See Me, Feel Me"-like climax, "Mirror Door," that sums up Townshend's lifetime pursuit of the nirvana in rock, particularly that of the Who, better than any concept album. |
