"Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" is a song by English rock band, The Who. It was written by the band's bassist, John Entwistle. The song was about drummer Keith Moon's drinking problems. This would be the first of two songs from The Who written about Keith Moon, the second being "Doctor Jimmy" from the album ''Quadrophenia''. Two versions of this song exist. The first one, running 2:24, is the B-Side to the US single "Call Me Lightning". It is still available on the 1968 compilation album ''Magic Bus: The Who on Tour''. The second version, which exceeds the former's length by 14 seconds, was the B-Side to the UK single "Magic Bus". This version has a more prominent guitar line, as well as spooky "Mr. Hyde" effects (the voice John Entwistle had used in chorus of the song "Boris the Spider") and can be found on the Japanese release of the ''Who's Missing/Two's Missing'' compilation released in 2011. This song, as well as "Boris the Spider" and "Silas Stingy" all had lyrics that suited children. Kit Lambert had the idea of making a kids' album composed entirely of songs like these, but it never saw the light of day. ==External links== * (The Hypertext Who -- Liner Notes ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (The Who song)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
