  2. The Who were hardly alone in being concerned. Most of Europe was then terrified of the worsening situation between the United States and the Soviet Union. At the end of 1979 the NATO alliance had agreed to base 572 nuclear-tipped U.S. Cruise missiles in Europe.

    Reagan and Thatcher also agreed on something else, the weakening or elimination of national government-funded social programs to aid the poor. Britain exploded with riots in the spring and summer of 1981 in areas such as Brixton and Liverpool where unemployment was high.

    Others were taking to the streets of Europe and the U.S. as well in 1981 and 1982 to protest both nuclear power and armaments. Hundreds of thousands marched all over Europe in what was known as the "No Nukes" movement.

    It reached its zenith during the recording of It's Hard as 800,000 marched in New York City before attending a massive "No Nukes" concert in Central Park headed by Bruce Springsteen.

  9. In Britain the band then doing the most to address political issues was The Clash. Their albums London Calling and Sandanista! had addressed everything from the Brixton riots to the Nicaraguan civil war. Billed as "the only band that matters" and with a front cover to London Calling that showed Paul Simonen smashing his bass guitar, they could not help but get Pete's attention. Pete spoke of The Clash in almost every interview he gave in 1982. "About two years ago, while the Who were touring, I was wearing the basic Clash outfit, red handkerchief and baggy trousers and whatever else. And it really didn't come into its own until I went to a Clash concert, where I actually blended into the crowd and had that feeling of being lost, and at the same time of being...found." Pete saw It's Hard as a chance for The Who to take the high ground from The Clash or at least to further their message. "I think the Who are in a unique position in that we're capable of exactly the same kind of tense and desperate expression the Clash make, but with a far, far larger audience."
