"Eminence Front" is a song written and sung by Pete Townshend of The Who.
It appears as the sixth track on the group's 1982 studio album, It's Hard.
The single reached number 68 on the Billboard Hot 100. It is the only
song from the album that the band has opted to play live after the initial
post-release tours. Lead singer Roger Daltrey, vocally critical of the
album, described "Eminence Front" as the only song on it that he felt
was worthy of being released..."
"In the originally released version, there is a timing flaw or a syncopation
in the first chorus, where Townshend sings "behind an eminence front" at the
same time Daltrey sings "it's an eminence front," with Townshend one syllable
behind. A more linear-sounding remixed version appears on the 1997 re-release
of It's Hard (a live version, recorded on the band's final stop on their 1982
tour in Toronto, appears as a bonus track on the re-release). Additionally,
the remix has Townshend's vocals panned centrally rather than hard right
in the stereo field."
