This film is set in 1964 and features three songs by The Who "my generation" which they dance to at the party "anyway anywhere anyhow" which Jimmy watches them perform on TV, both of these songs weren't issued until 1965.When Jimmy makes his return trip to Brighton "5.15" is played while he is on the train this song wasn’t issued until 1973 strangely enough The Who were directors on this film. [5.15 wasn't being "played" on the train, but was part of the film soundtrack. The film Quadrophenia was a film version of the 1973 concept album Qhadrophenia, and 5.15 was on the 1973 album, as were many of the songs in the film sound, and was thus correctly included in the film.]
