In praise of Pinball Wizards

The rock opera "Tommy" featured the song "Pinball Wizard" written by Peter Townshend in 1976. It is a paean to a "deaf, dumb and blind kid" who all the same was champion of the pinball machine world. This page is dedicated to all the pinball wizards out there, blind, deaf or even just those who "hear the beat of a different drummer", like myself - RF.
