The 1984 Listening Post - Roger Daltrey - Parting Should Be Painless

Roger Daltrey - Parting Should Be Painless



#44
February 1984
Roger Daltrey
Parting Should Be Painless
.5 out of 5 

Oh, what fresh hell is this?
Abandoning hard rock in search of a hit, Roger enlists a bunch of other people’s material and shits all over it. As a vocalist he makes Rod Stewart sound like Pavarotti. On “Parting Should Be Painless”, a cover of a song by the unknown (by me) Kit Hain, the thing should retitled “Singing should be painless…except for Roger” cuz he sounds like he’s being tortured. 
This makes me want to strangle a cat.
