Does anyone else get this overwhelming feeling of longing while watching The Who in their prime?? I mean, they were so so so great that it pains me that these days are gone. There will never be another band that is this powerful on stage ever again.
Definitely. I saw the Who in 1967, my first ever live gig. Townsend smashed his guitar to bits right in front of me and my brother ( we were 15 and 17). Life changing experience. Still burned into my memory like it was yesterday.
Yes I feel the same, it's a shame, I loved the Who years, Bingly Hall 75' was my favourite, CRIPES wot a day, waited all day Sat, got to the front the Who came on and goodness me the power!.. and then Swansea 76"..
Absolutely. Also, I would pay money to watch a three-hour video of just Keith Moon busting Pete Townshend's balls in between songs in live performances. It's like watching two middle-school kids.
The greatest drummer ever the greatest Bass player ever. One of the greatest guitar players ever. One of the greatest front men ever. PETE TOWNSHEND is a musical genius. Put them together and what do we have. THE WHO GREATEST ROCK BAND EVER EVER. I SAW THE WHO 5 TIME'S AND MY EARS ARE STILL RINGING AND I LOVE IT.
Keith kissing John was one of the most funniest moments! I have this Dvd and I have watched it countless times.. to be totally honest, I would've loved to have met Keith and go on some crazy crusades with him. RIP Keith and John, y'all were and still are the greatest ever! ❤️❤️❤️
I Feel The Same - Would've loved to party with Keith for even just 24hrs - He KNEW How to have FUN - & could get away with Crazy Shit! If I could go back in time (1Time) - See an early Who show, & then Party with Keith after - that's what I would do - without a Doubt. Not The Stones or The Beatles or The Kinks. I am too Young to have seen the Loon, But I was lucky to see Entwistel with Rodger & Pete preform QUADROPHENIA - & I'll NEVER forget THAT show. STILL - It would have been SO MUCH BETTER if Keith had Been there TOO (of Course)!! Favorite Band - & Favorite Drummer - Bassist - Singer, & Power Chord playing Songwriter.
That is the best introduction to a song that I have ever heard. It doesn't hurt that I love this song, and its multiple movements. I even liked the portuguese subtitles...
Yep, great intro. Too bad the video is ruined with the slo-mo at the end. Reducing The Who during one of their most dynamic live performances to barely moving still frames is ridiculous and awful. Major fail.
I became a huge Who fan when I was 10 years old. I bought all their albums and knew all their songs by heart. I was lucky enough to see them live in 1989 when I was 18 and I remember walking out of the stadium thinking to myself…. I get it now. I understand why they’re the greatest band ever. Those songs were written to be played in front of an audience. It was the most incredible concert I’ve ever seen to this day. Baba O’Riley live? 72,000 people singing along with Pete during that break. Forget about it….. you can’t get any better than that.
I do hate soooo much "Pitt" , sooo happy for liking "the Who" with Keith and the only in this group who loved him really John Entwistle, plus what a bassist !! Thx Roger for honoring again the Moonie's genius
Man, these guys are just great. This is the way they were back in those days. Very entertaining, very creative, all natural. They were a combination of modern music and vaudeville.
For me the funniest part is at 1:13 when Pete, having had enough of Keith's verbal interjections, acerbically says of Keith, "I wish I was sitting back there surrounded by various (alcoholic) brews. He has a little (beer) tap on the side of each drum". Hilarious!
@@ttig4044 Happy New Year. anything after Moon's death doesn't interest me ,tho it might be good or bad. Kenny Jones I saw w/ the FACES .he was great, but who can follow Keith? rhetorical question.
Probably the greatest live band of that decade, outside of The Jimi Hendrix Experience. Everything is just epic, ambitious, mad and brilliant. And so totally, successfully musical. Masterclass. Love them to bits
That drumming! The other big bands around were Hendrix (Mitch), Beatles (Ringo), Stones (Charlie), or the Kinks (Mick), and though Mitch came close, no one did THIS! So fluid, so tasty, so busy, yet so married to the music; a force unto themselves, a solo instrument, a melodic and rhythmic shaman!
But Moon's drumming worked because Townshend was a strummer, not a riff-player. Moon filled in the sparseness that would have been filled by a Jimmy Page.
@@TheKitchenerLeslie I agree wholeheartedly. Townsend had such a great rhythm guitar that the rest of the band was free to stretch. The bass parties are equally as impressive.
.....es impresionante lo que sonaban estos tipos para la época....y la calidad de sus ejecuciones, admirable....qué bueno que ahora se tiene acceso a este material
John Entwistle Lol John it's you!! We all miss you so much. You're lucky! Moon is my crush. Don't be jealous! I bet that anywhere you are now he is with you lol
Watching Keith drum to this song always brings tears of both joy and sorrow to my eyes. True shame the second half isn't there. Still a piceless video. Thank you!
Great video and song thank you. I isolated John's bass parts and I was astonished at just what he's playing. Bass but with what sounds like rhythm and lead guitar parts. Incredible to say the least. John carries the entire band including keeping time. New found respect. Moon is all over the place, Pete is a powerhouse and Roger is doing his best. John even singing the falsetto chorus highs.
I just love getting into this during the acapella part and feeling pumped for the song to kick in when I get interrupted by a fucking commercial. Thank you TH-cam! You really know how to make a video special.
The who were a perfect storm. A crazy drummer who became "the best Keith Moon style" drummer ever. A guy who re-invented how the play the bass guitar. A visionary lyricist who was an amazing showman, and a damn fine guitarist. One of the most recognizable voices in Rock history. Oh my goodness.
Dewey Cedarblade If, when you wrote “A visionary lyricist who was an amazing showman”, you were referring to Roger, it was Pete who did all of the lyrics, excepting the songs John wrote.

Moon tocaba sin esfuerzo aparente, es un hecho asombroso. Demostraba que tenía mucho resto, para algunos bateristas su performance sería un esfuerzo sobrehumano. Evidentemente tenía unas muñecas muy firmes y veloces, y un Don natural. Independientemente de sus estudios con Carlo Little.

Just that they came up with a Rock Opera in 1968 or so was a feat for in itself... I mean, WOW!!! Saw it live!

Best version of this song is on the Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus.
th-cam.com/video/R0JHM0Q8JKQ/w-d-xo.html
true
I disagree, I prefer this version because the vocals are a lot more powerful although the Rock and Roll Circus version is a lot cleaner.
Yea but we don't get Moon's funny commentary and kiss to the Ox on that one!
Incorrect snowflake
Keith's drumming was such an integral part of the sound of The Who. Never duplicated.
It was melodic, like John bass
Arguably one of the most creative musicians ever. All of them
100% agree couldn't agree more.

Keith loved John and that was a great way to show it.😊

I just discovered this video and I don't understand how I lived without it
Best live band ever, so electric and full of energy, and John Entwistle being the eye of the hurricane!!
Excellent analogy!
One of the top three bass players, ever!!! Dude's a Rock Star!!!
CheesyDynamite 3 fingered Entwistle he was called by friends
Spot on. I saw 3/4 of The Who at the Isle of Wight festival in 2004 before Entwistle died, best 2 hours of my life.
@@martyyoung3611 it’s all John Lennon!
Keith was such a big-hearted lunatic! Love it when he gives John a kiss on the cheek!!
I think it was the lips but it might have just been very close
Cute
@@lindortrufflenah, was in the cheek
no band ever performed one of their pieces live better than The Who performing this particular one
A Quick One LP. My Christmas present for 1966. Played it to death.
That is the best introduction to a song that I have ever heard. It doesn't hurt that I love this song, and its multiple movements. I even liked the portuguese subtitles...
Adam Haalboom the best
Yep, great intro. Too bad the video is ruined with the slo-mo at the end. Reducing The Who during one of their most dynamic live performances to barely moving still frames is ridiculous and awful. Major fail.
@@michaeldavid6284 that was because the film in the camera had ran out before they were finished. So they had to use other footage.
Agreed. Also the Portuguese subtitles served me well since I find it hard to understand what Pete says at times.
Moi aussi.
How did I go all my life without this video????
This song can bring good Memories of my past. The Who ALWAYS a great Band.
I became a huge Who fan when I was 10 years old. I bought all their albums and knew all their songs by heart.

Baba O’Riley live? 72,000 people singing along with Pete during that break. Forget about it….. you can’t get any better than that.
Saw them in ‘67, Anaheim, and ‘68, Los Angeles. My thought exactly. Most incredible concert I’ve ever seem, Cream, ‘67, San Francisco.
I do hate soooo much "Pitt" , sooo happy for liking "the Who" with Keith and the only in this group who loved him really John Entwistle, plus what a bassist !! Thx Roger for honoring again the Moonie's genius
John's singing gets super high during the forgiving. I knew he usually sang the highest parts but it really is impressive.
Dollarbillguy Keith actually sings the highest, lol!
If you listen to Entwistle's voice in interviews, it invariably sounds low and growly. But he not only sang a great falsetto, he sang it in tune....
And he was a trained french horn player.
And he was Boris the Spider! He was amazing
And he was the Ox!
"Because he likes to watch" they were really good at so many levels, even were funny lol
The Who were a perfect band to do a rock opera on stage. My favorite drummer Keith plays so effortlessly and enjoys his antics on stage.
Greatest rock Band of all time. i doubt anything could change my mind, these guys were a fucking machine.
Forget your problems. Take a stiff couple of drinks and watch The Who live.
best live band ever discussion over!
works for me!
You mean a couple of stiff drinks!
Yes sir buddy!
@Menschen Gegen 5G Wonder how many folk hit the bottle this year
And this is why I love the Who... Who couldn't...
Man, these guys are just great. This is the way they were back in those days. Very entertaining, very creative, all natural. They were a combination of modern music and vaudeville.
And most importantly, they had fun!
Roger and his powerful voice and looks... beautiful 😍
Keith was so DAMN FUNNY!!
They would have been a VERY DIFFERENT BAND if he had not been the drummer.
and they were never the same after he passed.
Yet it's still excellent that they didn't quit.

Kelly14UK 👋🏻🎱👄🎱🤚🏻 it's a put on! D:
@Kelly14UK Exactly!
5:48 Just listen to Moon kick in with the drums and you can quickly see who elevated this band to another level. He's just so fucking amazing!!
Agree, but listen to Entwistle too.... both as good as it gets.... just amazing how those two wound up in the same band.
What an entry ! What a star ? What a loss !!!!!
Richard Grandmont omg thank you for drawing my attention to the ent! yusssssss!
Keith doing drum rolls with the bass drums just before Roger starts to sing. Awesome!
Totally agree.
Anyone that can make a boiler suit look cool is my hero, and Townshend is my hero. And I got to meet him last year. Now I can die in peace.
YOU GOT TO MEET HIM!? OMG!
Pete is one of the best Songwriter or The best in 1970

yeah pete was really witty, I like the other joke where he says "duly, it's another month in the year"
Love this song and performance. From a non Who fan I feel theyre the best live band ever.

Lmao! The Who could have easily been a big comedy quartet, Pete's introduction to the song is hilarious!
Rare to see Pete in such a good mood onstage. Hard to believe it's the same guy that went off a few years later on TOTP during 5:15.
