If you want more Live from them, Check out My Generation from the Smothers Brothers show (1967 i think), Young Man Blues from the Isle of Wight Festival 1970 or Won't Get Fooled Again from this performance (1977 Sheperton Studios, I think).

    I'm 34 and The Who has been my favorite band since i was 12, when my dad had me watch Tommy and Quadraphenia. It was on my bucket list to be able to see them with him and we crossed it off 4 years ago. Roger Daltry was one of my first crushes as a teen, weird I know😂

      Couldn't agree more Robert. I've had the luck to see them live 5 times and they're still, in my opinion, THE best live rock band of all time. (I've also seen a number of my other favourites; Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Genesis, Yes etc., but no band created the same "insane energy" along with musical excellence. Pink Floyd were probably the closest.)

    It's interesting that you mention feeling proud and heroic listening to The Who. Since I was a kid, they've been my "power" band that I go to when I need that kick-in-the-ass energy to get me out of a slump. I'm forever indebted to the really cool babysitter I had in 1969/70 who introduced me to FM radio and album rock at a *very* young and impressionable age.

    If you want to see them 10 years before this, watch them perform A Quick One While He's away, live at The Rolling Stones Circus celebration, filmed fo tv.
    They blew the Rolling Stones off the stage. Mick Jagger was so ashamed of the Stones pathetic perforformance, he refused to show the Who's performance for years. When you see that performance, you will realize that the Who were Always this good.

    In college I lived in a fraternity house and the guy in the room next to mine played The Who on his stereo system every day - practically all day - for like 6 months. He blew out his stereo a couple of times because he liked to play it LOUD. I kept fixing it for him (I was studying electrical engineering) and I never got tired of listening to them as they were one of my favorite bands. He must have played Eminence Front a thousand times - no exaggeration.
