Our Take
Our Take
Ah, John Entwistle, the legendary bassist of The Who. Rigor Mortis Sets In, his fourth solo album, has been reissued on coloured vinyl, giving fans a chance to experience his unique blend of rock and eccentricity in a new light.
The album kicks off with "Tightrope," a rollicking track that showcases Entwistle's signature bass playing and sardonic vocal delivery. It's a perfect introduction to the off-kilter world of Rigor Mortis Sets In, where bizarre lyrics and unconventional song structures reign supreme.
Tracks like "Roller Skate Kate" and "Peg Leg Peggy" continue the quirky charm of the album, with Entwistle's dark humour shining through in every note. His musical prowess is on full display here, as he effortlessly switches between intricate bass lines and blistering guitar solos.
But it's on songs like "Bridges Under The Water" and "I Feel Better" where Entwistle's true genius shines. The emotional depth and vulnerability in his lyrics are juxtaposed with the raw energy of the music, creating a powerful and compelling listening experience.
Overall, Rigor Mortis Sets In is a testament to John Entwistle's immense talent and creativity. The reissue on coloured vinyl is a treat for fans old and new, and a must-have for anyone looking to delve into the eccentric mind of one of rock's greatest bassists.

About the artist
John Entwistle
John Entwistle, the legendary bassist for The Who, was known for his thunderous basslines and eccentric stage presence. With a career spanning over four decades, Entwistle established himself as one of the greatest rock bassists of all time. Born in Chiswick, London in 1944, Entwistle learned to play the trumpet before switching to bass guitar in his teens. His unique playing style, characterized by intricate finger work and a powerful tone, set him apart from his contemporaries. Entwistle's contributions to The Who's sound were immeasurable, with his basslines providing the backbone for classic songs such as "My Generation" and "Baba O'Riley." His virtuosic playing earned him the nickname "The Ox," a fitting moniker for a musician of his stature. Offstage, Entwistle was known for his dry wit and dark sense of humor. His love of black comedy and macabre subjects often found their way into his songwriting, adding a layer of depth to The Who's music. Tragically, Entwistle passed away in 2002 at the age of 57. His legacy lives on through his music, which continues to inspire generations of musicians. John Entwistle's impact on the music world cannot be overstated. With his unparalleled skill and larger-than-life persona, he carved out a place for himself in rock history that will never be forgotten. The Ox may have left us, but his music will always remain.
