Townshend certainly expanded the range of themes which could be explored by rock musicians.

In terms of songwriting partnerships, how about Jagger/Richards, Elton John/Bernie Taupin, and (don't laugh) Bjorn Ulvaeus and Benny Andersson of Abba?

Other great songwriters:-

Lowell George of Little Feat
Robbie Robertson of The Band
Gene Clark
Stephen Stills
Stevie Wonder
Smokey Robinson
Marvin Gaye
Paul Simon

Bob Dylan.
***Some say you should live each day like it was your last... but who wants to live each day in wild panic and extreme death anxiety?

The universe, look at the hugeness of it... it is a dizzying thought that little ol' me is the centre of it all!***

The blues isn't about making yourself feel better, it's about making other people feel worse.
