This was the British book release for the Ken Russell movie, TOMMY, and it's a great find for the fan of the movie. The photographs are numerous both candid on-set and film stills, and the stories are fun, especially since Oliver Reed, Keith Moon, and Russell are all gone now.

TOMMY was the last of the major British commercial flicks for Russell, as he moved to stranger areas later. It's interesting to note that Reed was supposed to go to Hollywood to film JAWS, but he so disliked Los Angeles, he chose to film TOMMY instead, true-blue Brit that he was. Mooney's escapades are covered and Pete Townsend is more honest here than in his later remembered enhancements of the filming.

It's a good find for the film buff.
