So, that Fleetwood Mac tribute LP may have proven a touch too ‘modern’ for diehard fans’ tastes, but fear not, because a far less controversial artist roster has aligned to pay homage to that other most classic of rock bands, The Who, as part of a new covers compilation titled ‘Who You Are’.
Set for release on 2 Oct, it features Iggy Pop, Todd Rundgren, The Kinks’ Dave Davies, Rick Wakeman, Judas Priest’s KK Downing and comparative youngbloods The Raveonettes

Eminence Front – John Wetton (Asia), KK Downing (Judas Priest) and Derek Sherinian (Black Country Communion)
