The Iron Man: The Musical by Pete Townshend, released in 1989, is an

adaptation of Ted Hughes' story The Iron Man, produced and largely

composed and performed by Pete Townshend of The Who. It also stars

Roger Daltrey, Deborah Conway, John Lee Hooker, and Nina Simone. It is

Townshend's fifth studio album.



The three then-surviving original members of The Who (Daltrey, John

Entwistle, and Townshend) performed as a group in two songs, "Dig" and

"Fire", although the latter was a cover of The Crazy World of Arthur Brown's

hit. (The Who would later perform "Dig" live during their 1989 reunion tour.)



"A Friend Is a Friend" and "I Won't Run Anymore" were commercially released

as singles; "Fire" was issued as a promo-only single in the United States. Cash

Box said that "A Friend is a Friend" "finds Pete in an uplifting vein, with

falsetto vocals and strummed guitar."[4]



A stage version was mounted at the Young Vic theatre in London in 1993. On

the strength of this, Warner Bros. optioned the story for a movie which, with

a very different adaptation of the story, became The Iron Giant; Townshend

received an Executive Producer credit.
