Pete Townshend - Uneasy Street - Non-Album Tracks (1990-1997)

Pete Townshend regularly released solo albums every few years through 1993. Then he stopped. His 1993 studio album is still his last one. (He did write the songs for a Who album in 2006.) He has continued to perform a lot of concerts, especially with the Who, but he hasn't even released many other solo songs since the early 1990s (for instance as singles or on compilations).

However, Townshend has continued to make new music since that time. It's just that he's been very low key about releasing it, if he bothers to release it at all. He's put out some more recent songs on his series of "Scoop" albums. He also released 20 demos, many of them dating from the 1990s, as a free download that briefly appeared on his website, called "Twenty." Other songs have only been played in concert.

I've compiled a bunch of these songs to make this album. Unfortunately, I don't think they're a strong bunch of songs, by his standards. It's known that he was busy with other work and hobbies for much of his time in the 1990s, so clearly he wasn't writing songs with the same fire as earlier in his career. But Townshend is so musically talented that even his less that great stuff is pretty good in my eyes.

I made two songs bonus tracks simply because I didn't think they were strong enough compared to the others.
