Their performance of "Won't Get Fooled Again" from the same Shepperton Studios gig is one of the greatest live performances you'll ever seen from any band. When The Who were recording this performance for their "The Kids Are Alright" movie, in the studio next door, the movie "Alien" was being filmed. The cast and crew of "Alien" took a break and went over to watch The Who gig. They liked the laser show at the end of "Won't Get Fooled Again" so much, they borrowed the laser equipment from The Who and used it in the "Alien" movie. So the next time you watch Alien, keep an eye out for The Who's lasers.
As is "compulsory" to mention when viewing the Shepperton performances...Sadly Keith Moon only had 3 and a bit months to live;these were his final performances with the band😢🎩
This is my favourite live performance of Baba O'Riley. I'd recommend watching the whole of The Kids are Alright Movie. It's a compilation of live performances and interviews between 1964 and 1978.
I am so privileged to have grown up with bands such as The Who. I am 73 tomorrow & going through some of my best albums & tunes. & watching you guys react.
Please do Who Are You. Great song and the video is soooo much fun, showing the comraderie and real affection between the band members. It's labelled Promo Video. You'll love it.
Won't Get Fooled Again is definitely the best performance I have ever seen. Few things in this world are as beautiful as the joy in that performance. You should check it out
These guys were awesome. The energy level that they have in these vids was constant throughout their entire concerts. Didn't get to see them do Tommy, but I have seen them 4 or 5 times. (Old Fart at Large...) Studio Version !!! ....................Lazy is still awaiting you. (and 25 or 6 to 4). Kieth's headphones had to be taped on cause they kept flying off. Duct tape was a mandatory accessory in The Who's 'kit. Also req'd for Roger's mike.
Awesome! Did you notice that Keith Moon was keeping time in the beginning by playing on the edge of the drums? Taped headphones to keep them on. Thanks for all you do. Have a great 2024.
The Shepperton studios session was so good another great watch from there is Won't Get Fooled Again itmis spectacular. Keith used to move around so much in performances the headphones would fall off so he used to tape them in place
Keith Moon always taped his headphones to his head because he had a hard time keeping them in place during performances. BTW, the Muppet that was the drummer was modeled off of Keith Moon and his "free ranging" motions during his shows. You need to see "We Won't Get Fooled Again" from this same show and pay particular attention to Pete at the end. Oh, and in that song you'll get to see a very early laser display - The Who were very early adopters of lasers into their live shows - the technology was very primitive and that makes it even more impressive in this show.
Anyone notice that John Entwistle (bass) is similar to John Paul Jones of LZ in that they seem to be the adult in the room while everyone else is going nuts! I love it!
I think it was gaffers tape. He had to wear them to keep in time with the synthesizer (? Spelling) anyway they kept coming loose since he moved so much. Keith does rip them off at the end of the live “We won’t get fooled again”. You should watch that live from same show… they go nuts!
There's a live version of this from, I believe 2015, in England when Pete & Roger were in their late 60's/ early 70's and for my $$$ it's the best live version of Baba O'Riely. With technology, lightshow, Pete and Roger killing it during the harmonica solo at the end and the crowd going absolutely crazy, it's an experience.
That is Gaffers tape on Keith's headphones the reason he started doing that is because he gets so animated when he's playing his drums his headphones tended to fly off a lot so you'll notice if you do the promotional video for who are you when they're in the recording studio he still has them taped on
If you haven’t reacted to Young Man Blues (1970 Isle Of Wight) check that performance out. That is The Who at the height of their power. An amazing performance!
Dude. You gotta check their song “A Quick one while he’s Away” by The Who. It has to be the LIVE version from The Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus. It’s da bomb and it’s one of their best live performances ever!
I actually studied Tommy whilst in HS. Seriously. The entire album was that semesters English lit class. Amazing how many people in that class were triggered by the subject matter - only no one recognized it for what it was. Truly amazing and important band.
You HAVE to watch The Who’s portion of the Concert for New York. It’s absolutely amazing and it will make you cry watching the 9/11 first responders in the audience jumping up and down and screaming along with them. It’s truly amazing.
So glad you did this one man, what a performance. I couldn't imagine being there that night! (Next chance, check out "Who Are You", same night...it's epic on another level!!🤟😎)
Really, if you want to see an amazing live Who performance, try Young Man Blues at the Isle of Wight. They were at the top of their game - utterly magnificent!
As a fan of the Who, The Kids Are Alright is a must watch movie for SG. I was a Who fan in the late 70s, but after watching the movie I became even more of a fan. One of the best rockumentaries ever, imo.
You should watch the Kennedy center honors tribute to The Who. This song is done really well. Betty lavette sings a stunning version of "Love Reigns o're me. Listen to the studio version first if you haven't
The who definitely has a sweet spa for me. When I was a teenager I had limited funds and I had to make a decision. Do I go with the who or led Zeppelin? And most of my friends were led Zeppelin fans so I chose the who and I have a lot of LPs from them. They really enjoyed that journey as a kid and when I became a young adult and had more funds, I got to experience led Zeppelin at a much deeper level so that was a great journey as well

"Why are Keith Moon's headphones taped to his head?"
Oh Grasshopper, there is so much yet for you to learn.
The headphones are taped to Keith's head to keep them from flying off when he gets frenetic!

The sheer amount of talent on that stage....i mean, come ON. Frightening in its power.

The Ox is probably my favorite bassist of all

Thanks for the reaction Salvo ! The Who live is a whole different animal. 🎸🥁 The Kids are Alright Movie is highly recommended. Check it out.

Married to a bass player. That’s how they roll. 😊
The Who! No words...live is crazy! My happy teenager years! The kids were alright.

Live at Hyde Park? My wife and I were there, right at the front! A brilliant gig!
That first minute is like a class: "Rock Star Moves, 101"...
That is Gaffers tape on Keith's headphones the reason he started doing that is because he gets so animated when he's playing his drums his headphones tended to fly off a lot so you'll notice if you do the promotional video for who are you when they're in the recording studio he still has them taped on
You will notice that the drummers headphones are taped on. He got so wild they kept falling off.
Another favourite live Baba O'Riley is from the 2000 show at the Albert Hall with Nigel Kennedy.
Yes! Absolutely stunning performance.
Keith Moon with his headphones taped to his head so they’d actually stay on 😂😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
One of the many songs of theirs that I love and one of my favorites on live versions of it. Can't go wrong with any of their songs!!
If you haven’t reacted to Young Man Blues (1970 Isle Of Wight) check that performance out. That is The Who at the height of their power. An amazing performance!

Yeah pretty much fire 🔥
The song from this same show, Won't Get Fooled Again, is the closer to this show. I think you should check it out. It's even better.
This was awesome!
You have to check out
Love Rein O'er Me !
I actually studied Tommy whilst in HS. Seriously. The entire album was that semesters English lit class. Amazing how many people in that class were triggered by the subject matter - only no one recognized it for what it was. Truly amazing and important band.

Saw them live a few years ago and they had a young woman come to play the fiddle part at the end, it was awesome.
The Who one of the best! Fortunate enough to have seen them live many times and they always put on a great show!
fun band, please do WHO ARE YOU STUDIO VERSION.
The Bass is the Lead! Just so freaking good!
Happy 2024 SalvoG.
Happy New Year SalvoG!🎊🎉
Please consider checking out their performance of 'Young Man's Blues' from the Isle of Wight Festival 1970... unbelievable!!
🎊Happy New Year SalvoG!🎉🎊
So glad you did this one man, what a performance. I couldn't imagine being there that night! (Next chance, check out "Who Are You", same night...it's epic on another level!!🤟😎)

It was nice to see the video though the original recording sounds much much better! Happy New Year🎉
The Kids Are Alright documentary is amazing. Unfortunately, not long after this, I believe that Keith Moon died. The Who is my favorite band.
You should watch the Kennedy center honors tribute to The Who. This song is done really well. Betty lavette sings a stunning version of "Love Reigns o're me. Listen to the studio version first if you haven't
Keith Moon was a beast.
Lord knows I was crushed the day Keith Moon died.

And most of my friends were led Zeppelin fans so I chose the who and I have a lot of LPs from them.
