Tommy music question

Archived from groups: rec.games.pinball (More info?)

A friend of mine played (and enjoyed) a tommy in st. louis a couple of
weeks ago, but there was no sound. Does this game play who music? And
if so which songs? Thanks for any help.

If you are talking about Bally 1976 Wizard (with Roger Daltrey and Ann
Margaret? on the backglass) then no, no music.

But... If he played Data East 1994 Tommy, then yes, there is music and
he really missed quite a lot of it, as that is the best feature of the
game. It is the adaptation of the The Who's Tommy rock opera for
Broadway.

Although the music is The Who's, they are not performing it, but it's
rather from the Broadway musical adaptation. It's a fun game, I'd say
one of the best Data East machines and a solid effort.

Pretty much all the songs are included and it's featuring all the hits
you know and love (some are just snippets or sound bits from the
songs): Pinball Wizard - I'm Free - Tommy's Holiday Camp - Cousin Kevin
- Tommy Can You Hear Me? - See Me, Feel Me - Sparks - Miracle Cure -
Amazing Journey - We're Not Going To Take It - Acid Queen - Sally
Simpson - Go To The Mirror - Fiddle About - Christmas - There's a
Doctor - Captain Walker - Sensation - Smash The Mirror - Listening To
You - The Overture.

And once again, together with Pink Floyd's The Wall, when it comes to
weirdness - Tommy is one weird friggin' movie!
