I have been a huge Who fan for over 30 years, but I decided not to pick up 
the 
tribute album to them because I figured why listen to someone else do their 
songs
when they do them better.  I just don't see the point.  The only tribute 
albums I've 
ever bought were the Elton John one, because the Who covered one of his songs
on it, and the Grateful Dead one, because the Oils are on it.  I figure I'll 
pass on 
the Oils tribute because like you said, nobody does them better.  (Besides, 
it 
probably won't even get released in the States).
Mike
