Just two old friends November 20, 2008
Pete and Ronnie just getting together to rip one off. It works splendidly.
Some nice charachter songs, few rockers, good mix of both their styles. Recommend it even if your not a Who completist.
 Not bad October 3, 2008
This album is by no means a "must have." There are one or two great songs, namely "Annie." There are also some pretty good songs. However, much of the album is forgettable. This may be surprising to Who fans, but Pete Townsend's efforts pale in comparrison to Ronnie Lane's. If you are a Townsend fan, stick to his Who albums. If you're a Ronnie Lane fan, you are buying five good songs.
 Wonderful July 25, 2008

Very fine listening. Some of Pete's best melodies, the kind you can't get out of your head for days.
Townshend/Lane Are Sublime April 29, 2008
1 out of 3 found this review helpful
According to the liner notes off the vinyl album, Pete Townshend and the late Ronnie Lane play all sorts of instruments and "very involved mind games" not to mention the fact that taken as a pair, and as the photo attests, they are truly the rock & roll cro-magnons when it comes to their looks. But appearance means nothing when it is talent that counts, and the mind games resulted in a pearl of a recording effort. There was a hint of what Townshend and Lane were capable of on Evolution on Who Came First. The hint blossomed with Rough Mix.
The other reviewers have it right, the two gems on this are Keep Me Turning and Heart To Hang Onto. Street in the City is overproduced in my opinion, but the rest is a solid effort, with an especial nod to Till the Rivers All Run Dry, a great last cut on a par with Pavardigar on Who Came First. Townshend as a solo act is not The Who, he is Pete Townshend and teaming up with Ronnie Lane makes as sublime a product as can be found. The supporting cast is superb, with Eric Clapton helping out on guitars, Henry Spinetti providing a steady beat, and Rabbit on keyboards.
You don't need to be a Townshend or Lane fan to appreciate Rough Mix, just someone who loves to listen to rock and roll. RIP, Ronnie.

As an old time rock n' roller, this has always been one of my favorite albums (oops, CDs). For me, the collaboration between Mr. Townsend and Mr. Lane works just perfectly, with each balancing out the other, to create a CD that is right for certain of my moods. I hope that you enjoy it as much as I have for over 30 years.
