It’s my favorite.. the expanded edition is a must hear for all the extras, I went ahead and got the deluxe version on vinyl and can’t find a dull moment.. would’ve LOVED to have seen them back at that point, the studio singles are all great but really fall flat in comparison to these live performances.
The live footage is not from the Leeds concert but it's different clips from the isle of wight 1970 concert. But, live at leeds is right up there amongst the greatest live albums ever!!
ahh, that Bo Didley rhythm. Those Brits were so influenced by the great American R&B folks. Fantastic album, I wore that thing out in high school! An epic My Generation and medley on that album just hooked me forever.
Yes, the My Generation jam on Live at Leeds is up there with live performances by Zeppelin, Floyd and Hendrix as examples of live Rock at its very best, it becomes more than just music but a primal force that puts you in an alternate reality for a time. Awesome stuff!
@vicprovost2561 agree! Bands today don't seem to jam any more and express themselves as this energized unit, building that kind of groove leading to a cathartic conclusion.
IMO, their best (Who's Next) was just around the corner from what we witness here. That aside, their live shows were heads and tails better than anything else going on at the time. RIP Moonie and Ox.....
Always something different from Airplay Beats! Love how eclectic you guys are and how you appreciate MUSIC, regardless of genre or style. AND NOTHING LIKE SOME WHO TO GET READY FOR THE WEEKEND!
This opening riff had to be one of the best of all times - it rocks even before anything else happens. getting better and better as the song progresses.
You need to check out My Generation from this album. It'a an EPIC 15 minute medley with one incredible riff after another. No one was playing with such raw power and energy then.
I always loved this performance in that it demonstrates the different personalities that make up the band. One in a workers jumpsuit, one in a halloween skeleton outfit, one t-shirt and jeans, and a rockstar fringe outfit
Have you guys done THE WHO AT ROCK AND ROLL CIRCUS DOING A QUICK ONE (WHILE HE'S AWAY) FROM 1968? PICTURE PERFECT LIVE TV VIDEO, GREAT PERFORMANCE. MUST REACT. ALSO, 1978, WON'T GET FOOLED AGAIN AT SHEPPERTON, AGAIN LIVE VIDEO ESSENTIAL!!
Okay, guys. The video is from the Isle of Wight festival. The audio is from the Live at Leeds album. That's why it doesn't quite match up. You may have noticed that.
@@AirplayBeatslook you guys are great reactors and such but you are terrible at researching. Like with what you did for Dazed And Confused (Live At The MSG 1973), the whole song is on youtube with no video, but you choose to only react to the cut 12 minute version. Not every song you react to needs a music video! Damn it lmao. Next time, just listen to the non-video version. The audio quality of this video sucked, but high quality versions exist on TH-cam easily.
"The OX" on Bass ---- He also plays French Horn on some tunes....freaking wonderful how they kick everyone in the teeth with the explosives around 5:18...Pure ROCK-N-ROLLA'S
the Who at their peak this live at Leeds Univ. performance is considered one of the consummate live performances ever. listen to the whole concert all the way through beginning to end gentlemen., you won't be disappointed
Audio is from the excellent live at Leeds album, footage is from the Isle of Wight concert - so they ain't quite synced up. Young Man Blues from the Live at Leeds is a must react for you guys.
Live At Leeds might be the greatest live album in modern rock history. This is an AWESOME visual/audio print of the encore. Where the hell on film, however, is the rest of this incredible concert? Good job, guys.
This video is a blend of video from the Isle of Wight concert with the audio from the Live at Leeds album. It can confuse those that are unaware of what is actually going on.

One of the Top 5 live albums by anyone, they were a primal force in rock and this performance is off the charts. You HAVE to hear the My Generation jam that preceded it on Live at Leeds. Pete Townsend at his most intense and forceful, spectacular leads fronting arguably the best rhythm section ever. That album blew our minds back then! To see more from this great era of theirs, they have You Tube video of their shows at Woodstock, Tanglewood and the Isle of Wight Festival, 1969 - 1970, which are all spectacular, chill inducing sets, at their best they are up their with the very greatest bands. Please check them out as time permits, it will be well worth the investment in time, this is some of Rock History at its best and you can see and hear it 50+ years later. Even in this form it is very powerful. Enjoy! 🎵🎸🎤🎸🎹🎶
When it came to the roughest toughest wildest and hardest Rock band on the face of the planet back then in 1963, the early 60's, The Who was that band! They pioneered a screaming front man, Roger Daltry, who jumped around doing cartwheels & flips & tossing n twirling his mike! Pete Townsend doing cartwheel strumming on his guitar while jumping up & down and Keith Moon pounding wildly on his drums, according to music critics everywhere & the public, The Who was wildest and loudest band around!!! 😎
The comment about the magic bus being a drug reference 😆... it was "the times" of our culture.✌🏼 No offense to styles of today, but Roger's long, curly hair 🤗 and the fringe ❤ Someone commented on the diversity of their outfits, totally agree! This was 🔥✨️ Great start to the weekend. You two ROCK 💯🤘🏼💥
This live performance of Magic Bus is great but you should listen to the studio version to get the gist of the song! The Who is one of the best bands to see live sonically and visually.You’re only getting a taste of it here. Roger Daltrey, swinging the mic, Pete Townsend, doing his famous windmill along with his jumps and Keith Moon’s antics on the drum kit! It doesn’t get any better than that! You guys nailed it! They are the quintessential rock band! They were also famous for destroying their equipment on stage. I recommend watching their performance of My Generation on the Smothers Brothers show. Keith Moon rigged his drum kit with explosives allegedly unbeknownst to his band mates. Pete Townsend suffered hearing loss as a result of the stunt. other grade songs include. I can see for miles; Behind Blue Eyes;The Seeker; Going Mobile; Pinball Wizard. Great reaction as always gents, keep them coming… I’m a fan!
Great reaction. Simply put, The Who are legends! It is my understanding that Magic Bus is a reference to LSD and Ken Kesey, who was one of the main forces behind promoting LSD use in the mid-sixties before it was outlawed. He and his Merry Pranksters traveled cross country in their psychedelic painted out bus called FURTHUR. The Grateful Dead were first to have a song referring to the bus with The Other One. Then, The Beatles wrote Magical Mystery Tour and the Who followed suit with Magic Bus.
@mkap931 Right?!?! Great minds think alike because they definitely belong in that list. My 1st concert was The Kinks when I was 14. Awesome band & thanks for sticking up for them 🙂 Take care!
@@mkap931 Because they were around during the same time period I will say they certainly have a place at the table, but they won't be at the Head Of The Table.... And in my world Elvis doesn't count because he was merely a singer that shook his leg but was never the real "King" of RnR
@@mkap931 In many competitions there are only three places on the Podium... 1st, 2nd, 3rd.... The Kinks are a close 4th, but don't make the podium ceremonies.
Live at Leeds was not filmed as far as I know, the video is from the Isle of Wright gig. But the soundtrack to it is from Leeds as it sounds. That's when they were at their peak: the greatest drummer, the best bassist, one of the most innovative guitarists and a totally wild and charismatic front man.
“I don’t care how much I pay, don’t take Laa and Chee away! “. Love your reactions gentlemen! You take me back to the day when allllll these songs were new to me! I can’t wait to get home from work! Thank you guys!
The second album I ever bought after the Rolling Stones Got Live if You Want It. It seems that this was in the mid, late 60's because I had it before I moved to N.Y. in 67.
This live version of magic bus is completely different than the single. Which was a success by the way. Notice the drummer, Keith Moon, doesn’t use a high hat. 🕊❤️🎼
Wow! You guys, and your fans, are hitting it out of the park with your song choices! Live at Leeds is considered one of the best live rock albums, along with Get Your Ya Yas Out (Stones) abd Live at Fillmore West (Allman Bros). Listening to Live At Leads, is to stand at the foot of rock gods. So much great trivia about this album, which is worthy from beginning to end. Magic Bus is my personal favorite track (along with Daltrey cracking up singing "I want it"), and many others are not to be missed, including Sparks. All my best to your family.
LOVE the Who. Have most of their albums and seen them live. LOUD is an understatement when describing them. They are my 2nd favorite just behind L. Z. How many bands can say they rocked for as long as they have. BEST halftime show during the superblow ever. Thanks guys
Wonderful that you two listen to everything! I particularly appreciate your reactions to the Rock legends, like this. You always get an immediate like.
Live At Leeds is a great record. My buddies and I were still listening to it over a decade after it dropped. "Magic Bus" closes out the record. Side one features several smokin' hot covers -- "Young Man Blues", "Summertime Blues", "Shakin' All Over", along with a bang up version of "Substitute". "Magic Bus" is the title track of the fourth album they released in the US. The cover art featured the band draped around a London double-decker bus painted in day-glo flower power colors ala the Merry Pranksters circa 1968. The album was a US only release and is listed as a compilation today. It also features "Pictures of Lily".
I feel like their bassist John Entwistle doesn’t get the props he deserves. The rest of them are such showmen it’s understandable. Entwistle is one of the great rock bassists of all time.
Daltry and Plant, on stage together recently, are two cool guys with great mutual respect and egos in check. Although, Plant's persona overshadows everyone...can't help it
Live, unlike no other band, incredible. Check out A Quick One While He’s Away, live from The Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus. Incredible performance.
Man, this throws me back into heavy combat…actually went to sleep listening to the Live at Leeds album nightly for a month or so while flying high risk helicopter missions in Vietnam. Then I’d get up to this tune or My Generation and go out to do it again. Yeah, great rock and roll saved my bacon!
after all these yrs this is the first time I've heard this done live! Appreciate that fellas, only saw them live once in 82 billed as their final tour! 17 skipped school and hitch hiked to the show with my cousin, good times!
Live at Leeds is arguably the greatest live rock album ever. However, there is no film footage of the performance I'm aware of. I know the footage your watching is from the Isle o white festival in 1970 Somebody spliced this video with Leeds concert. That's why the sound and live footage aren't jivin together quite well. It doesn't matter I quess. Can't ever go wrong with the Who live or studio Great reaction as always
The Who was a great live band! So were many others bands of the era. Being young in the audience energized by this organically unfolding music was incredible. They were telling a story sonically and lyrically and we were all aboard their Magic Bus
I've never noticed how bluesy this song is, wow. That beginning part is almost like straight Blues, the music, vocals & arrangement, how they're singing to each other etc. Love it.
Guys, you would love Big Big Train , chock full of master musicians , story telling and wonderful vocals. Try almost anything live , Victorian Brickwork or EAST coast Racer would start you off. Love your reactions, you are real.
We were blessed with some GREAT drummers in this time, Keith Moon right up there at the top! I honestly believe part of my hearing trouble these days can be traced back to a few Who concerts! (And Deep Purple, Blue Cheer, and ELP!)
Live at Leeds is one of the best live rock albums ever
It’s my favorite.. the expanded edition is a must hear for all the extras, I went ahead and got the deluxe version on vinyl and can’t find a dull moment.. would’ve LOVED to have seen them back at that point, the studio singles are all great but really fall flat in comparison to these live performances.
It was the one album just about guaranteed to be in every music collection back then.
The music is from Live at Leeds but the video is from Isle of Wight. Hard rock at its peak.
I was wondering about the mismatch between the video and the music...
@@LwizeSi, los metrajes de live at leeds tienen copyright
The Who in 1970 was one of the most dynamic bands performing… Leeds, Isle Of Wight… great shows
Best Bass player in rock and roll!
best drummer too they kept it alive every second
Truth.
yes!!
Legend says The Muppets drummer was fashioned after Keith Moon.
Legend says Keith Moon was fashioned after The Muppets drummer......
Animal is a very good representation of Moon the Loon.
Dressed up as a maid ffs what you expect lol
The live footage is not from the Leeds concert but it's different clips from the isle of wight 1970 concert. But, live at leeds is right up there amongst the greatest live albums ever!!
I was just gonna comment that whoever cut it together, did a good job, but it's not actually Leeds...
@@richeaton5752 Yeah it almost looks in sync at times but you can tell it's not the same. You can really tell by watching Keith.
ahh, that Bo Didley rhythm. Those Brits were so influenced by the great American R&B folks. Fantastic album, I wore that thing out in high school! An epic My Generation and medley on that album just hooked me forever.

Always something different from Airplay Beats! Love how eclectic you guys are and how you appreciate MUSIC, regardless of genre or style. AND NOTHING LIKE SOME WHO TO GET READY FOR THE WEEKEND!
Too much wimpy shit
And to think Jimi Hendrix played at the same concert. Blows your mind.
He played at Isle of wight, not leeds.
Which is the video here, with the Live at Leeds audio overlayed.
In my opinion this is one of the best sounding live albums around. ✌🏻
The Who were without a doubt one of the most innovative bands in the Rock Genre.
This opening riff had to be one of the best of all times - it rocks even before anything else happens. getting better and better as the song progresses.
You need to check out My Generation from this album. It'a an EPIC 15 minute medley with one incredible riff after another. No one was playing with such raw power and energy then.
Also Young Man's Blues is a sonic ear bleeder that needs to be listened to at max volume!
I always loved this performance in that it demonstrates the different personalities that make up the band. One in a workers jumpsuit, one in a halloween skeleton outfit, one t-shirt and jeans, and a rockstar fringe outfit
I was waiting for a black light to show off his skeleton & guitar. TRUE ROCK STARS ⭐
The Magic Bus is the bus he rides to see his baby each day!
One of the best live rock concerts of all time. The 'My Generation' Medley is one of the many highlights of the album.
Saw them in Boston. Most powerful concert in a lifetime of greats - the energy was palpable.
Townsend in a live performance is another level..
Great response and review... you nailed the Who....."they kick everyone up the arse live".....Mick Jagger said that
Keeping the excellent weekend alive!! Live at Leeds is pure fire 🔥. Gentlemen, thanks for an excellent reaction !🎉❤😊
Nobody talks about the genius of Peter Townsend , songwriting, guitar innovation, indescribable!
His songwriting was as good as anyone. Concept albums, all time anthems, big hits, he could do it all!
Whole Live At Leeds is an amazing time capsule. Love it. When loud was normal and terrifying.
People tend to not think about the fact that back then, guys/girls put their own bands together. No corporations.
AllRight now flip over so the My Generation Medley. It will blow you away.
Have you guys done THE WHO AT ROCK AND ROLL CIRCUS DOING A QUICK ONE (WHILE HE'S AWAY) FROM 1968? PICTURE PERFECT LIVE TV VIDEO, GREAT PERFORMANCE. MUST REACT.
ALSO, 1978, WON'T GET FOOLED AGAIN AT SHEPPERTON, AGAIN LIVE VIDEO
ESSENTIAL!!
The first great "live" album. The Who were the first great hard rock band.
Spot on Man, that album is a force of nature.
Around 1969-1971 the Who was probably at their peak. Would love to have been at that show.
Maximum R&B (and they ain't talking 'bout this new 'R&B'). Live Leeds must be right up there with one of the best live rock albums EVER.
Okay, guys. The video is from the Isle of Wight festival. The audio is from the Live at Leeds album. That's why it doesn't quite match up. You may have noticed that.
I was wondering what the heck was going on. 😂
@@AirplayBeatslook you guys are great reactors and such but you are terrible at researching.

Isle of Wight's Young Man Blues version is a fuckin good one too...
What a terrific band!
My favorite song off my favorite album by The Who 🔥🎸❤️
LIVE AT LEEDS. THE GREATEST THE MOST EPIC. OTHER WORLDLY
Maximum R&B! Thought you both would like seeing this one
Don’t need to be a fan to be amazed by The Who. Legends

The Power of rock
Yes, they always were the Power and the Glory that is Rock n Roll. 🎸

Mr. Keith Moon on drums before his unfortunate early passing. That man was a beast...

Great start to the weekend. You two ROCK 💯🤘🏼💥
Wow an amazing performance by the Who, I’ve always loved this song. Thank you both!
I’m 16 all over again just superb.
Happy you did this one and you loved it. 🙂.
Live at Leeds is a great album.
I’ve always thought of The Who as the first punk band. They definitely have that edge in early in career.
Man, those guys were in their prime. 🎶

First time I ever heard this song was LIVE in concert in Southington Playhouse in Connecticut. Touring on the "The Who Sell Out " tour.
Live at Leeds from the WHO is considered one of the first metal albums. According to Pete Townsend, it’s the first!
What? Nope
Hard Rock at its best, not metal,
which was being brewed by Black Sabbath at this time.
Wow! GREAT song choice.
Live at Leeds was not filmed as far as I know, the video is from the Isle of Wright gig. But the soundtrack to it is from Leeds as it sounds. That's when they were at their peak: the greatest drummer, the best bassist, one of the most innovative guitarists and a totally wild and charismatic front man.
Thanks guys brilliant! And I’m from Leeds, Yorkshire, England
“I don’t care how much I pay, don’t take Laa and Chee away! “. Love your reactions gentlemen! You take me back to the day when allllll these songs were new to me! I can’t wait to get home from work! Thank you guys!
My all time fav band is Zeppelin but the who from this era live is pretty special. Try out young man blues, it’s powerful
They line up right behind Zeppelin in Hard Rock royalty for me! 🎸
The second album I ever bought after the Rolling Stones Got Live if You Want It. It seems that this was in the mid, late 60's because I had it before I moved to N.Y. in 67.
Footage from Isle of Wight, not Leeds - you guys should watch more from the IoW concert that's here on the toob.

Also Deep Purple - Made in Japan & UFO - Strangers in the Night - both worthy to be in the conversation.
The who in their prime was the best live band hands down.

Love this live version ❤️
Tremendous
Live At Leeds is a great record. My buddies and I were still listening to it over a decade after it dropped. "Magic Bus" closes out the record. Side one features several smokin' hot covers -- "Young Man Blues", "Summertime Blues", "Shakin' All Over", along with a bang up version of "Substitute". "Magic Bus" is the title track of the fourth album they released in the US. The cover art featured the band draped around a London double-decker bus painted in day-glo flower power colors ala the Merry Pranksters circa 1968. The album was a US only release and is listed as a compilation today. It also features "Pictures of Lily".
I feel like their bassist John Entwistle doesn’t get the props he deserves. The rest of them are such showmen it’s understandable. Entwistle is one of the great rock bassists of all time.
Entwhistle was the Charlie Watts of bass players. He just did his job with no fancy shenanigans.
Everyone in the Biz knows the Ox is tops.
Daltry and Plant, on stage together recently, are two cool guys with great mutual respect and egos in check.
Although, Plant's persona overshadows everyone...can't help it
Those guys are a template for Rock frontmen.
What are the all-time greatest rock and roll bands😅😅😅😅😅😅😅🎉🎉🎉
So glad you got to this one. I’ve waiting for it. One of my favorite all-time WHO songs. Thank brothers. Cheers 🍻
Live, unlike no other band, incredible.
Check out A Quick One While He’s Away, live from The Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus. Incredible performance.
That was going to be my response, but you beat me to it. That is a stunning performance.
Props to Keith Moon for keeping himself reigned in until halfway through the song!
Love the Bo Diddley beat in and out of there.
If only that dude could have copyrighted that beat.... he'd be richer than Musk and Bezos combined.....
I’ve been lucky enough to see them 5 times over the past 50 years!
Man, this throws me back into heavy combat…actually went to sleep listening to the Live at Leeds album nightly for a month or so while flying high risk helicopter missions in Vietnam. Then I’d get up to this tune or My Generation and go out to do it again. Yeah, great rock and roll saved my bacon!

Audio is Leeds Video is Isle of Wight
Love the who
Keith Moon, the drummer, was a flashy exciting showman who we lost way too soon. "Tommy" is actually Roger Daltrey.
This time was a sort of a rock renesaince, never repeated again.
That guitar riff in the middle is from Smokestack lightning,Howling Wolf

Always a wild show! Moon Townsend and Daltry always perform to the max and I love the shots of those fingers working that bass!!!!
MAGIC!!
Pete, the who, capable of nuance, but mostly dynamics, vastly influential, always a favorite.
