Best part is Entwistle stood STONE DEAD STILL with kind of a bored expression on his face while playing these insane bass lines....while the other three were bounding all over the stage.
He said himself he was bored because he found his stuff easy to play. Forget if it was thunderfingers or an ox's tale. Think it was an ox's tale though
I saw them perform this song on their first tour of the album this song came from, Quadrophenia. Though I saw the Who while Keith was still alive three times, it was only this first time that they performed this great song. The horns were played by John, who learned horns (and maybe piano?) before he picked up a bass. John plays at this level for the entire double album!
I wish I had the pleasure of seeing them with Keith Moon. I saw them with Kenny Jones in 1982. They made the mistake of letting the B-52's be one of two opening acts, during which they were booed off the stage. Nothing against them, but definitely not a good opening act on the same bill as The Who.
@@magneto7930 I'll never forget the night I got to see Stevie Ray Vaughan open up for The Who. SRV was relatively unknown at the time, but you knew he was a guitar God from the first note he played. Other great bands I've seen open up for The Who are the Pretenders, The Clash, and Robert Plant (solo).
@@magneto7930 When I saw The Who in 1975, the opening act was Toots and the Maytalls, a Reggae band. We threw things and booed them off stage. Nobody wanted to hear that crap.
John started out as a French Horn player in the Boys Brigade. There are horns in Tommy especially in the overture and early singles like Picture of Lily where John plays the French Horn. Pete had attributed Johns incredible skill on the Bassin part to his fingering ability on the French Horn. John Alec Entwhistle greatest bassist ever. Like Secretariat at the Belmont way out in front on his own!!!!!!
Jon did the bass on the 1st take. Wikipedia: The song features an impressive bass performance by John Entwistle. According to a 1996 interview with Entwistle by Goldmine Magazine, the bass part was recorded on the first take. Entwistle claimed he was "joking around" when he played the part, but the band loved it and used it in the final version.
IMHO, this is Keith Moon's finest work, on an album that was Pete Townshends masterpiece. Remains my favorite Who album of all time. Entwhistle's expression never changed when he played bass. His head was in it all the time.
I have a hard time picking a favorite because By Numbers is a personal underrated favorite of mine. But Quadrophenia is a powerhouse, with Keith Moon and John Entwistle killing it!
There's a drum and bass isolated track for this tune that really gives me all I need. The story was they told Entwistle this wasn't going to be the final take so just go ham on the bass, we'll do the "real" bass line later. They kept the crazy one.
th-cam.com/video/b0ta8xuVNh0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=retpSn5R3g00SrKf Here's an isolated Bass of Real Me if you should care to listen John was such a beast on this track
Great reaction Harri That dirty nasty bass is something else The horns are all John Entwistle He was a phenomenal if not the best bass player, multi talented musician and also sang If you saw them live Keith would going 100mph John would lool like he's waiting for the bus He was so chill 😎 Love and Music 🎶💜🎵
Another Who banger with horns is 5.15 from the same album. And amazingly,one of the best bass men of them all,John the Ox plays horns on this. The talent was ridiculous in that band.
When I was about 15 , I took a day off school and caught a bus into town and bought this newly released album . Because of the deluxe packaging it was very expensive , about 11 or 12 bucks I think . John was a multi instrumentalist . Bass , keyboards and brass horns . Great album .Another song featuring John is 5:15 .
They were indeed horns, played by Entwistle. Before he picked up a bass guitar, he was a trumpet player, and also played French horn. A good example of his French horn playing is on the Overture to "Tommy." He was also the only member of The Who with actual musical training, which served them well. Also, and I'm afraid you'll be disappointed, but his face was stolid, and unemotional when he played. Among his other nicknames, one was "The quiet one."
From the 1973 album Quadraphenia, this fabulous tune was written by Pete Townshend. Great memories of popping in the 8 track of this album.🎶🎶🎶 It was the second song on the album, the first with lyrics. A story about an English Mod named Jimmy with 4 personalities. John Entwistle has one of the greatest bass line performances on this tune and also plays the French horn you hearing Harri. Keith Moon on the drums is so captivating with his amazing drumming. Pete on the vocals so brilliant and captures you immediately. Fabulous song. Great reaction Harri. Thanks Harri and Miss Blondie. 👏👏 Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦😮
Miss Blondie - I simply love your submissions especially this one by The Who. The Who was a legendary group of extraordinary talent and stage presence. Bravo!! Great review and comments, Harri.
I was only 9 when Keith Moon died so I never had the chance to see them live Even a fuzzy memory is one to always treasure So happy there's many live videos of The Who especially with Keith
Quadrasound was the new Stereo. This album was I believe the first to come out of that format which had different instruments in 4 different speakers instead the the usual two. The ending echo here would move into different speakers and surround you. It didnt last long since you needed all new equipment to hear it as well as home video came along with Surround Sound.
I go back and forth with this and Chris Squire on "Roundabout" as the greatest recorded bass track of all time, so I've decided to just declare it a tie...
John Entwhistle, Bass extraordinaire, had learned to play the French Horn, in his local Boy's Brigade band, in youth. So, there are a few tracks when a French Horn is used on a Who track, like the Overture of Tommy. Entwhistle, with his extra musical knowledge helped arrange if other horns were used by studio musicians. When The Who played 'live' in the 70's they didn't want other musicians on the stage with them, so they used recorded tape tracks, synched to that song, like for Synth's or horns. By 1980, after Moon's Death, they had a Keyboard/Synth player on stage with them. Later reunion tours, like 1988 for "Tommy" and 1996 for "Quadrophenia" (when I saw them in Chicago) they had a big band structure for extra percussion, horns, and extra guitar, who was Pete's brother, Simon. They have done recent tours, with a local Orchestra playing with. Can you see the real Who, can you?
Chances are that John Entwistle's expression never changed while he cranked out those amazing bass fills. Meanwhile, the rest of the band is going nuts while John is the calm in the storm of an incredible soundscape.
Great stuff Miss Blondie, thanks. And Harri....John Entwistle never makes a nasty face, maybe a smile sometimes at the three bandmates,when they're going crazy. Thanks man, love this music. 👍😁👊❤️
Youre right - it was a horn section. In later recordings Pete often used a horn set in his arrangements. Fantastic song. Fantastic band. And the best classical fingering on bass you've ever geard on this planet.
John when he played bass he looked calm as a breeze,John was awarded bass guitarist of the millennium and well deserved as no one can come near him he played the bass like a lead guitar.
Actually, one of John Entwistle’s nicknames was “The Ox”, b/c he would fire off incredible bass work while standing there with deadpan face and nonchalantly grooving, like “Oh, ok, whatever”.
Thank you Harri and Miss Blondie. The second best rock and roll band ever. The number one rock and roll band just released a new album. (Of course, I am not including the Beatles in this list because they are above any lists and are really not pure unadulterated rock and roll roll like the Stones and The Who).
Hi Uncle Phil The Who is my favorite 2nd is Pink Floyd are you referring to the 50 year anniversary remastered Dark Side Of The Moon? Not new but recently
John played French horn, check out first song on Tommy, before that the who sell out album has his horns, before that an old song they did called bucket t, on who are you John plays horns for blue red and grey, so ya it's real and there. Oh on who's next johns song called my wife
You should check out the song "My Wife" from the Who's Next album, written and sung by bassist John Entwistle. It also features a brass section arranged and played by him, with hilarious lyrics about a man running for his life from his angry wife, who's on the warpath after he's stayed out all night (or maybe two) drinking.
This is in my opinion is their greatest album !! To fully appreciate it you need to listen to it in order and in its entirety since it is a concept album . You can’t really understand Love Reign O’er Me unless you listen to all the shit Jimmy went through , Jimmy is who the album is about
In an interview John Entwhistle said that the bass part is a 1st take and that he was just goofing around. But the band loved it and kept it. ( 1995 interview)
Glad to share this Diane It's from Quadrophenia album which is a tie for me with Who's Next and Tommy depending on my mood Masterpiece album if you enjoy The Who 🎵💜🎶
Entwhistle played horns on some of their songs, but on Quadrophenia I'm pretty sure all of that is done by Townshend on a synthesizer. One of the best albums ever, period. Do yourself a big favor and listen to the entire album, from beginning to end. It's mind blowing stuff.
The songs from this album quadrophenia it's About a guy with 4 personalitys. Look at the songs from it. And you will see the páttern Aunt whistle was known as the ox. Strong and quiet
Powerhouse is a perfect word for that track. I saw the Who a few times. The last couple of times, both within the last ten years, and once as they did a live rendition of the whole of Quadrophenia. Sadly l felt age was beginning to get to Daltreys voice. He didn’t have the power that he had on the album. No real surprise really being in his 70s. But l think Quadrophenia was the high water mark for the Who.
Nasty bass playing? Of course, it's The Who, but I guarantee you John Entwhistle was absolutely stone-faced and unemotional while playing. He was famous for that. Horns are common on Who tracks, particularly on tracks with high Entwhistle influence. He loved his French Horns and other brass
how wonderful, but when you realise the song is about a young "MOD" with four split personalities. A 4 piece band with each instrument taking the place of each other, chaotic but perfection.
John Entwhisle was the best bass player ever. Plus he played all the brass instruments.
Entwistle is how it is spelled
@@johntarnowski9086 - The "OX".
John The Ox Entwistle
Was thinking the same. Best I’ve ever seen.
Geddy Lee from Rush absolutely worships John Entwistle.
Best part is Entwistle stood STONE DEAD STILL with kind of a bored expression on his face while playing these insane bass lines....while the other three were bounding all over the stage.
He said himself he was bored because he found his stuff easy to play. Forget if it was thunderfingers or an ox's tale. Think it was an ox's tale though
Greatest bassist and drummer in Rock. BTW, Entwhistle never changed his expression.
Actually…john remained both motionless and expressionless while cranking out those monster bass riffs. Poker face. Monster chops!.😎
😅😅
His waiting for a bus look
True Rock Star 😎
I heard a rumour that he once smiled on stage in 1969.
Yes, there are horns on much of the album Quadrophenia, played by bass player John Entwistle. The whole album is a powerhouse!
Horns are prominent on "5:15". Piano is prominent on "Drowned".
I saw them perform this song on their first tour of the album this song came from, Quadrophenia. Though I saw the Who while Keith was still alive three times, it was only this first time that they performed this great song.

Now, that is a real killer rock performance!! The Who at their peak! John played the horns as well as the amazing bass!
John’s emotions were all in his fingers. He just stood there like the bass boss he was.
Yes great way to put it
John started out as a French Horn player in the Boys Brigade. There are horns in Tommy especially in the overture and early singles like Picture of Lily where John plays the French Horn.

I love your analogy
John is my favorite Bass player
When Pete first met him, he was playing tuba(!) in a Dixieland band. If it had a mouthpiece and valves, he could play it.
Jon did the bass on the 1st take.
Wikipedia:
The song features an impressive bass performance by John Entwistle. According to a 1996 interview with Entwistle by Goldmine Magazine, the bass part was recorded on the first take. Entwistle claimed he was "joking around" when he played the part, but the band loved it and used it in the final version.
The OX RULES the low end !!!!!!
IMHO, this is Keith Moon's finest work, on an album that was Pete Townshends masterpiece. Remains my favorite Who album of all time. Entwhistle's expression never changed when he played bass. His head was in it all the time.
I agree Moon was peaking on Quadrophenia
Masterpiece Album
John Entwisle was actually pretty stoic when he played
Greatest Rock Band Ever
My all time favorite
Absolutely love this album their best in my opinion. 🥁
For me it's Sophie's Choice between this and Who's Next. But gun to head I'd probably pick this.
I have a hard time picking a favorite because By Numbers is a personal underrated favorite of mine. But Quadrophenia is a powerhouse, with Keith Moon and John Entwistle killing it!
This whole album is awesome
There's a drum and bass isolated track for this tune that really gives me all I need. The story was they told Entwistle this wasn't going to be the final take so just go ham on the bass, we'll do the "real" bass line later. They kept the crazy one.

Isolation is completely unnecessary
Haha. john Entwistle was famous for playing killer bass lines without making a single face. He was the OG of smooth
John would be standing there like he was waiting for a bus. All the while his fingers would be flying up and down playing this mad bass.
Great reaction Harri
That dirty nasty bass is something else
The horns are all John Entwistle
He was a phenomenal if not the best bass player, multi talented musician and also sang

I'm a Moonie( is there a thing 😅)
However this I consider John's song
They truly were all so talented
Oh my goodness best bass ever. Why can no-one play with intelligence like this
Magnificent Album
I’m just so glad to see them live 1975 (?)( my memory kinda of fuzzy around those years lol)

I am pretty sure that the Bass track was the first take when John was just fooling around.
Love your attitude!
Story is that John Entwhistle felt that he messed up pretty early in that take...So he just kept it up and rest is history.
Great reaction man you now have to react to The Who 'The Seeker' straight up classic
John played French horn, check out first song on Tommy, before that the who sell out album has his horns, before that an old song they did called bucket t, on who are you John plays horns for blue red and grey, so ya it's real and there. Oh on who's next johns song called my wife

This is Rock n Roll
They are so fast and it starts with Keith Moon's drums being just a little bit faster than the rest of the group and them having to keep up with him
Entwhistles first instrument he ever played was the french horn.

Sadly l felt age was beginning to get to Daltreys voice. He didn’t have the power that he had on the album. No real surprise really being in his 70s. But l think Quadrophenia was the high water mark for the Who.
We'll make a mod out of you yet. BTW '5.15' has horns
This is my Faurote WHO song because John Entwisle is sooooooooooo good on the bass
and Keith is murdering the drums.
THUNDER FINGERS!
Quadrophena has horns on several tracks, most notably the song "5:15"
Keith Moon is the greatest drummer of all time!
He's my favorite
No one, no listener, can keep up with The Who when they are in full flight.
Nasty bass playing? Of course, it's The Who, but I guarantee you John Entwhistle was absolutely stone-faced and unemotional while playing. He was famous for that. Horns are common on Who tracks, particularly on tracks with high Entwhistle influence. He loved his French Horns and other brass
Pearl jam version good too
I've heard that John did this track one and done.
Tribute to The OX.
how wonderful, but when you realise the song is about a young "MOD" with four split personalities. A 4 piece band with each instrument taking the place of each other, chaotic but perfection.
