We watched it a few times on HBO at tender ages. I'll take it over The Wall... in the States, if you're in a bar and there's some crazy shit on the TV, it's usually Tommy.
Now I need to go watch it again. I loved it, not even realizing Reed’s infamy at the time. Thanks for the reminder of how ridiculously great it all is.
I'm honestly surprised at how often I go back to it. And I'll admit an irrational soft spot for Reed. He wasn't much of an actor, but the man had PRESENCE!

For me, it was probably late night BBC2, and probably thanks to Mark Kermode. Remind me to go to more bars in the US if I can expect a bit of Tommy.
