About the Album
White City: A Novel is a solo concept album by English musician Pete Townshend of rock band the Who. It was originally released in November 1985, on Atco. tells listeners that the White City was “a black, violent place” where “battles were won, and battles were blown, at the height of the White City fighting”. The album opens with crashing guitar chords that capture a feeling of urban chaos, leading into “Give Blood”, a song with Townshend’s moral lyrics demanding listeners to “give blood, but you may find that blood is not enough”.
