Written after Pete was out for a night of drinking and passed out in a doorway in Soho while stumbling home. Woke up to a police officer poking him with his billy club, demanding to know who he was and telling him that if he got up and walked away, he wouldn't be arrested. Amazing to see him take that experience and create this epic masterpiece. You guys rock as always - much love from Canada!
the "soho district" was were all the record companies operated from and townesend had been arguing with record company execs for 11 hours straight regarding band royalties. hence "eleven hours in the tin pan, god there's got to be a better way" tin pan refers to tin pan alley which was the hub of the music scene in London
Saw them in Boston at the Music Hall front row balcony when the :Who's Next" LP came out Moon was great one the Song "I Can See for Miles" he blasted those drums.. i could spend 10 mins writing about that show. i heard crickets for 3 days it was so loud
@@margaretflounders8510 They always said that Stevie Ray Vaughan didn’t play the guitar. He was the guitar. I could say the same for Keith Moon. Just incredible
This use to make me smile every time Roger sang "Who the f'ck are you." It seemed to be the only song on the pop / rock radio radio that wasn't being censored back in the day 😁
The Who had a take-no-prisoners, burning fury of rock music that isn't played this way anymore. Late 60's & Early 70's Rock & Roll that still grabs ya by the throat and gets your attention. When The Who walked into a room, all the people they'd step back 'cause these were some badass young men. Thanks for playing all The Who songs you have. It's greatly appreciated.
"I woke up in a SoHo doorway, policeman knew my name.. he said you can go sleep at home tonight if you can get up and walk away..." Always Loved that line...!
"I spill out like a sewer hole, yet still receive your kiss." Now that's a hard asf line... And Roger Daltrey's voice- imo -is the greatest rock n roll voice ever.
You told them the Who's Next album but they might end up thinking it's the album after the "Who Are You" album. You should tell them the name of the album is actually "Who's Next".
Whos Next was the first tape I bought. Played it loud on my stereo book shelf speakers I took from the house and set on the back seat to my 66 Ford Falcon. Good times! hahaha
Helps to understand The Who's impact chronologically. Late 1965 they join the British Invasion and (probably) invent punk rock with My Generation. String of hits, leading to battling Hendrix for top spot at 1967 Monterrey Pop Festival. 1969: First rock opera Tommy changes everything, then they destroy at Woodstock. 1971: Studio album Who's Next mistaken for greatest hits, because each song is an epic banger. 1973: Mid-60s British equivalent of Crips vs Bloods (Mods vs Rockers) immortalized by groundbreaking double album Quadrophenia - feature film to follow. 1975: Squeeze Box becomes huge hit, turning a new generation onto The Who 1978: New and old fans blownvaway (again) by Who Are You 1981: Face Dances album swoops in to save us from Lionel Ritchie, Pointer Sisters ... next 40 years treats even more generations to mega concert tours, solidifying The Who as one of the few true pillars of popular music. Long Live Rock.
The drums always hit hard when Keith Moon was playing. Imagine having him and Bonzo to listen to on any given day? Another classic from The Who. Thanks La & Che. 🔥
This one is a fave. Hits hard and is so nuanced. The band was well respected in thier day, but don't get a ton of love today. Top 5 group, all time for me.
This song was released in 1978. The Who had listened to a lot of punk bands talking shit for three or four years about existing big acts, dissing The Beatles, the Stones - and The Who. "Who the fuck are you?" was a direct answer to some of that.
The 'Who Are You' LP was released Aug 18th of 78. Couple weeks later I turned 18. Then about a week after that Keith Moon died Sept 7th of 78. For those who aren't aware the album cover became an instant classic. The chair Moon is sitting on has a the immortal stencil line "Not to be taken away". Personally this song inspired my wife to get clean while driving home from work many years ago. It holds a very special place in the soul of our family. Love your reaction gentlemen. ♥️
The Who ...Just about the best Rock Band from the 1960s to come out of England ... they have everything .. Vocals, bass , drums and that's guys are unbearable in every dept. Raw, just bloody brilliant .
In the day, we had a radio station that used to have days dedicated to polling who was better, The Who or Led Zeppelin. Zeppelin always took the day, but The Who got a lot of love.
This is a good one. I'd urge you guys to find the video for this song on TH-cam, as it was shot in the studio as the song was being recorded. Note that when you see Keith Moon on the drums with his headphones duct taped to his head that this was standard. His movements were so sudden and abrupt that he had problems with losing them. It wasn't a joke, he did this a lot. Great video that gives you a look into the band dynamic. Good job as usual, guys.
You should play the entire Quadrophenia album start to finish, no fillers, a masterpiece probably only surpassed barely by Who’s Next. Anyway I suggest your next song to be “The Real Me” followed by “5:15”. Entwistle’s bass will blow you away.
A great banger of a rock song from The Who is "Join Together". I don't think I've ever seen a reaction channel react to it. "Join Together" was recorded during the "Who's Next/Lifehouse" sessions but it didn't make it onto the original release of "Who's Next". It's an amazing song and thankfully it made it onto remastered releases of "Who's Next" in the 90's.
Keith Moon passed away after one of his famous benders shortly after this was released. Notice the sign on the chair Moon is sitting on, "Not to Be Taken Away".
I love you guys. You don't say much and your videos are short and sweet, but what you say is smart and I always learn more about the music from listening to you.
Cannot say how good it is to listen to this with ya'll. I am a Who fanatic from before and all I can say is: Welcome to the part of your lives where Keith Moon is your favorite drummer. Keep going with the Who. So much there to offer. Thanks again...your knowledge and chill factor are the perfect reaction combo. Cheers and much love
Believe it or not, this song played heavy on FM radio and I never once heard an edit or bleep when he clearly says who the F are you. I guess it was just too good to mess with 😊
So cool to watch you guys appreciate what I heard has a senior in high school…radios were huge then and this album was loud and heard everywhere. The big deal being that the “F” bomb was said and that version couldn’t be on the radio!🤣 The WHO rocks! Such a great era to grow up with such amazing music - in all genres really!!!
So glad you guys chose the full album version. Most of the time when you hear this song nowadays it's cut to pieces and without the important final verse.
The Official Video is Hysterical with the Band & especially drummer Keith Moon Wonderful Reaction as Always. Yes the Who belong in the upper stratosphere of Great Bands. Not a big Fan but they get my utmost Respect 🤘🏻
The chair that Keith is sitting in says "not to be taken away", and of course he taken from this world shortly after. The song on this album titled "The Music Must Change" has no drums on it because Keith couldn't figure out how to play it. He wasn't a technical or precise drummer like Ian Paice, but he was a force of nature like no other. Taken far too soon, but isn't that the case with almost all the truly revolutionary greats of rock and roll.
This album was released August 21, 1978, Keith Moon died just a couple weeks later on September 7. Notice the back of his chair on the album cover "NOT TO BE TAKEN AWAY"
In my 51 yrs walking the earth I have only ever seen one man who played so hard, so vibrant and joyful he had to DUCT TAPE HIS FUCKING 🎧 to his head while recording. 😂
You guys react to great songs. Your Stones and Led Zep choices are great! Would LOVE to see your reaction to the Quadrophenia album. "The Real Me" is a solid banger to start the album off with. Cheers!
Hope y'all come around to the Live at Leeds My Generation Medley. You'll feel like you've run a marathon when its done. Dig your reactions and appreciation of the soundtrack if my youth
@@danmayberry1185 Way ahead of it's time. Edit adding - I remember Jackson Browne with Running On Empty being hailed as a risk of releasing a live album which wasn't done. That was several years after Leeds. All I could think of at that time was "what about Live At Leeds?" It seemed to have been ignored commercially in those days.
@@kjisnot Apart from Wings Over America. And Five Live Yardbirds, Made in Japan (DP), Get Yer Ya-Yas Out, Allmans Fillmore East, Elton 11-17-70, Frampton Comes Alive, etc. Love music critics who were promoted from the Horoscope section 😄
Especially the Deluxe Version of “Live at Leeds” which also has a similar medley as “My Generation” when they do “Amazing Journey”. Every single song on it is really just pure 🔥! If there’s ever been a Live album fully deserving of a full album reaction it’s definitely Live at Leeds (Deluxe). 😎👍
Was just listening to this song in the car just 1/2 hr ago coming home, and I thought how you guys would like this song, and when you might listen to it. I get home, turn on TH-cam, and there you guys are with WHO ARE YOU! Too cool.
OMG you didn't watch the amazing film of them playing this in the studio! Please go back and watch it. You get to see the whole band playing and singing and also having fun playing around with each other - they are hilarious
I love your show , you guys need to start down the Canadian band rush ! You will be amazed by the sound from this 3 piece band ,plus the musicianship is unmatched
Soooo many songs and sounds of theirs left to do. Pinball Wizard, I'm Free, and We're Not Gonna Take It from the Tommy album (a "rock opera" like Pink Floyd's The Wall), Magic Bus, Behind Blue Eyes, Join Together, and even more obscure tracks like Melancholia or Girl's Eyes (don't throw sticks at her! lol).
Lots of WHO for you to cover from "invasion" in 1964 through the 1980s rivaling the Rolling Stones and Beatles for the kings of "traditional" (non-metal) rock. Kept carrying the load as disco took over representing classic rock- they are known for their crazy dynamic shifts...RIP Drummer Keith Moon- known for fills between fills between other fills
When this tune was released it seemed like it never got censored with the "who the fuck are you" lyric. I could never believe the stations censors didn't catch it while censoring other songs. The other thing is this tune is really great with headphones. Fun mixing.
Thanks for the reaction! I liked it! Watch the album cover and what is written on the chair Keith Moon is sitting on. It was the last album he was on. RIP Keith!
They were so perfectly balanced. One thing to note, Pete Townshend is a genius. Good portion of his music has *meaning*. They have a very important place among the very top bands, including making Rock Music Get Loud!
I remember. Graduated HS in 1980 and heard it every time, ditto Steve Miller Band “funky shit going down in the city” in Big Ol’ Jet Airliner and Pink Floyd “bullshit” in Money. Now they’ve dubbed in “kicks” on Miller and bullshit is just gone. We have to pretend these were written for Volvo driving mommies and children these days.
Looking for another one? There is a huge back catalog but since you are in the 70's consider "You Better, You Bet" from the early 80's "Face Dances" album. if you want to watch an amazing performance... check out "a quick one" performed live on the "Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus"
Keith Moon was one of the greatest most unorthodox drummers in rock. While Bonzo was a monster in keeping the tightest rhythm grove, Keith was a monster in turning drums into a lead instrument.Great reaction as always, Gents
One of the best live bands that ever blew some eardrums up! Saw them four times, saw Lynyrd Skynyrd open for them in ST. Louis, 1975; the crowd booed LZ off the stage, they only wanted the who!
love you guys. for me, it goes Zeppelin, the Who, Pink Floyd, and Sabbath. these are the great, must listen rock bands of the 70s from England. they are the tops, must listen. they are the standard setters.
The Who were my fav live band - I saw them many times, including 3 times with Kieth Moon! It’s amazing to think that these are 60’s/early 70’s songs, written by very young men. The Who, the Kinks and the Beatles all were happening at the same time. Peace
The Who played at the Fillmore East in New York City two days after Marin Luther King Jr. was assassinated. They did a thirty minute version of My Generation, much of it was just Pete Townshend wailing. It was the gnarliest, most gut wrenching guitar I’ve ever heard. It was like he was airing all of the hurt and anger that the entire world was feeling. The world was freaking out and Pete channeled it all through his guitar. The CD is “Live at the Fillmore East 1968” and was released 50 years later to the date.
Yet another great song and their last album with Keith Moon. I suggest you guys view some of their live videos of concerts in the late 60s to the 70s before Moon passed. Their shows at Woodstock, the Isle of Wight and Tanglewood in 69-70 are historic statements by one of rock's greatest bands. Try Young Man's Blues from the Isle of Wight and see what I mean. Enjoy! 🎵🎸🎤🎸🎹🎶
LMAO! GOTTA LUVVVVV THOSE WHO SOUNDS GUYS! 💯😊 YEAH ALL THOSE CRIME DRAMA SERIES SHOWS : BABA O'REILY, WON'T GET FOOLED AGAIN AND OF COURSE THIS BANGERRR!
OK guys, here's the next one: A Quick One (While He's Away), and listen to it from the Rock and Roll Circus! You'll be so crazed you won't believe it! Here's the thing about the Rock and Roll Circus show, it was hosted by The Rolling Stones in 1968 and they had on multitude of acts BUT the performance from The Who was so amazing that The Rolling Stones didn't want to release it....do yourself a favor and watch it!
I would be interested to see what you think of The Who in their Mod days, back in the early to mid sixties... Some interesting tunes to look for are "I Can't Explain", "Pictures of Lily", "The Good's Gone", "Boris the Spider", or "I Can See For Miles"... Everyone's done "My Generation", but it's still cool... The stuttering in that song is Roger Daltry mimicking a Mod on Methedrine, speeding his balls off...
Written after Pete was out for a night of drinking and passed out in a doorway in Soho while stumbling home. Woke up to a police officer poking him with his billy club, demanding to know who he was and telling him that if he got up and walked away, he wouldn't be arrested. Amazing to see him take that experience and create this epic masterpiece. You guys rock as always - much love from Canada!
According to the song the police man already knew his name.
Soho in London of course, not the pretend version in New York 👍
Bingo Dingo!
Townsend is a genius in every legitimate use of the word.
the "soho district" was were all the record companies operated from and townesend had been arguing with record company execs for 11 hours straight regarding band royalties. hence "eleven hours in the tin pan, god there's got to be a better way" tin pan refers to tin pan alley which was the hub of the music scene in London
Keith Moon was a freaking monster on the drums!❤

Always Loved that line...!
Yeah me too. It's brilliant.
Story of my life...
how about I spit out like a sewer hole yet still receive your kiss
Keith Moon's drums wrap around this entire song.
NOT TO BE TAKEN AWAY
Absolutely, I think we’re the only ones that noticed in the chat - powerful.
"I spill out like a sewer hole, yet still receive your kiss." Now that's a hard asf line...
And Roger Daltrey's voice- imo -is the greatest rock n roll voice ever.
The entire Who’s Next album is pure gold. I recommend doing the album from beginning to end. Every song is fire.
You told them the Who's Next album but they might end up thinking it's the album after the "Who Are You" album. You should tell them the name of the album is actually "Who's Next".
Totally agree!
Whos Next was the first tape I bought. Played it loud on my stereo book shelf speakers I took from the house and set on the back seat to my 66 Ford Falcon. Good times! hahaha
It doesn't even compare to Tommy , Quadrophenia, the who sell out and who's next.
💯🔥🔥🔥
Masterpiece. I am not popular in some circles because I think The Who was better than The Beatles.
All the CSI’s used Who songs as their theme. There’s a spectacular in studio video of this song. You really get to see Keith Moon’s mischievousness. 😊
Helps to understand The Who's impact chronologically.
Late 1965 they join the British Invasion and (probably) invent punk rock with My Generation.

1975: Squeeze Box becomes huge hit, turning a new generation onto The Who
1978: New and old fans blownvaway (again) by Who Are You
1981: Face Dances album swoops in to save us from Lionel Ritchie, Pointer Sisters
... next 40 years treats even more generations to mega concert tours, solidifying The Who as one of the few true pillars of popular music. Long Live Rock.
Last album with Keith Moon--my heart broke the day he died. Knew it would never be the same. RIP dear Moon the Loon. Gone, but never forgotten.
It’s so eerie that Keith is sitting on a chair that says “not to be taken away”
The Beatles brought us pop, The Rolling Stones brought us the blues, and The Who brought us the heat with in your face Rock.
Yeah. If you asked them. They would say "Maximum R&B"
We already had the blues, the stones brought us British blues.
And led Zeppelin deep purple Motorhead pink Floyd strangles
you guys don't miss a beat ....literally ....you get all the nuances ..
.its great to see such appreciation.
The whole WHO'S NEXT album is AMAZING.
Top 4 band all time for me....can't wait to hear you guys do: "Love Reign O'er Me."
They already did
@@user-vj8ul1cs7k Thanks I'll look for it.
The drums always hit hard when Keith Moon was playing. Imagine having him and Bonzo to listen to on any given day? Another classic from The Who. Thanks La & Che. 🔥
The best voice of all the British invasion bands. Daltry and his voice, almost kinda Celtic at times, which gave the band a great earthy sound.
Daltry's voice is overwhelmingly original and packs a powerful punch.
On July 29th it has been 7 years since I lost my husband. This song brings me some great memories. Thank you this made my day.🎸🎶🎼👍✌️
Sorry for your loss.
Sorry for your loss, music will bring incredible never ending memories

The critics hated Zeppelin and loved The Who, both were great, great bands
Maybe my favorite Who song, I was 22 when this came out in 78. That was my favorite year in my life!
"Eminence Front" ❤️ You've already done my other favorite "Bargain."
Man I'm jealous that you get to hear all these songs for the first time. Stoked for you guys.
The who appealed to so many genres and generations of teenagers with their rebellious songs
This is a good one. I'd urge you guys to find the video for this song on TH-cam, as it was shot in the studio as the song was being recorded.

Eminence Front should be next
so cool seeing young cats like you appreciating great older music
Rodger Daltrey the Tom Jones of rock and roll. There's a great live video of this song. Incredible to watch Keith Moon in action.
It took a long time for the radio censors to catch the f word! As a teen I would snicker every time I heard it! Especially on the bus to school.
On the cover Keith Moon (Drummer)
Is sitting backwards on a chair that says "Not to be taken away "
Ironically and sadly he died shortly after

Believe it or not, this song played heavy on FM radio and I never once heard an edit or bleep when he clearly says who the F are you. I guess it was just too good to mess with 😊
You were definitely not listening to the same FM stations I was. It was always cut.
@jpmnewyork apparently not. I grew up in Springfield MA and listened to wccc, whcn and waaf through the 70's and 80's. Never heard an edit.
@@davidfinnell1660 I worked at WHCN for one weekend in 1977. That was the extent of my professional radio career.
My favorite part is that soft acoustic guitar solo. Goosebumps!

Now absolutely everybody will know where this ame from😂 Beginning of CSI!!

There is so much going on in that song in the performances are brilliant and yet it just feels so easy to roll right along with it.
The video of the studio recording is a must. Keith Moon at his mad best! Do watch. Not long before he passed away.
I really love Who and I think this song is probably my favorite.
NOT TO BE TAKEN AWAY
In my 51 yrs walking the earth I have only ever seen one man who played so hard, so vibrant and joyful he had to DUCT TAPE HIS FUCKING 🎧 to his head while recording. 😂

A masterpiece of music by one of the goats
"Slip Kid" is another with no shortage of Who 'tude, and it's mostly overlooked.
favorite song ,hands down, the perfect rock song, wore out many a copie of this album, try sister disco
Soooo many songs and sounds of theirs left to do. Pinball Wizard, I'm Free, and We're Not Gonna Take It from the Tommy album (a "rock opera" like Pink Floyd's The Wall), Magic Bus, Behind Blue Eyes, Join Together, and even more obscure tracks like Melancholia or Girl's Eyes (don't throw sticks at her! lol).

That "who the f*** are you?" got through for many years on radio before radio stations finally realized it and started cutting it out.

Now they’ve dubbed in “kicks” on Miller and bullshit is just gone. We have to pretend these were written for Volvo driving mommies and children these days.
This was the first song to sneak the word FUCK on the radio!
Looking for another one? There is a huge back catalog but since you are in the 70's consider "You Better, You Bet" from the early 80's "Face Dances" album. if you want to watch an amazing performance... check out "a quick one" performed live on the "Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus"
We have a remedy, little girl guide. So why don't you stop your crying - here comes Ivar, the dirty old sooty engine driver to make you feel alright.
Keith Moon was one of the greatest most unorthodox drummers in rock. While Bonzo was a monster in keeping the tightest rhythm grove, Keith was a monster in turning drums into a lead instrument.Great reaction as always, Gents
One of the best live bands that ever blew some eardrums up! Saw them four times, saw Lynyrd Skynyrd open for them in ST. Louis, 1975; the crowd booed LZ off the stage, they only wanted the who!
The genius of Pete Townsend. And Moon the Loon.... Wearing out those skins
love you guys. for me, it goes Zeppelin, the Who, Pink Floyd, and Sabbath. these are the great, must listen rock bands of the 70s from England. they are the tops, must listen. they are the standard setters.
The Who were my fav live band - I saw them many times, including 3 times with Kieth Moon!
It’s amazing to think that these are 60’s/early 70’s songs, written by very young men. The Who, the Kinks and the Beatles all were happening at the same time.
Peace
ICONIC CLASSIC....!!!
Hi bros. From my youth, before you were born. Still rocks for me at 76.😄
Yeah I have this 45...in.. 1978 and took it to school and played it
Entwistle & Moon awesome rhythm section.
Who's Next is my fave Who album and this song is one of the reasons!
The Who played at the Fillmore East in New York City two days after Marin Luther King Jr. was assassinated. They did a thirty minute version of My Generation, much of it was just Pete Townshend wailing. It was the gnarliest, most gut wrenching guitar I’ve ever heard. It was like he was airing all of the hurt and anger that the entire world was feeling. The world was freaking out and Pete channeled it all through his guitar.
The CD is “Live at the Fillmore East 1968” and was released 50 years later to the date.
All the CSI shows have a song by The Who as their opening theme.
Who the fuck are you?!…love this song, it’s attitude…written out of the pages of my life….take no shit…saw this band 3x, all excellent! Thanks, gents!
I always thought it was ironic what's written on the chair that Keith Moon is sitting on. This was his last album with The Who before he died...
Yet another great song and their last album with Keith Moon. I suggest you guys view some of their live videos of concerts in the late 60s to the 70s before Moon passed. Their shows at Woodstock, the Isle of Wight and Tanglewood in 69-70 are historic statements by one of rock's greatest bands. Try Young Man's Blues from the Isle of Wight and see what I mean. Enjoy! 🎵🎸🎤🎸🎹🎶
LMAO! GOTTA LUVVVVV THOSE WHO SOUNDS GUYS! 💯😊 YEAH ALL THOSE CRIME DRAMA SERIES SHOWS : BABA O'REILY, WON'T GET FOOLED AGAIN AND OF COURSE THIS BANGERRR!
Quadrphenia whole album so much energy from that one
OK guys, here's the next one: A Quick One (While He's Away), and listen to it from the Rock and Roll Circus! You'll be so crazed you won't believe it! Here's the thing about the Rock and Roll Circus show, it was hosted by The Rolling Stones in 1968 and they had on multitude of acts BUT the performance from The Who was so amazing that The Rolling Stones didn't want to release it....do yourself a favor and watch it!
I would be interested to see what you think of The Who in their Mod days, back in the early to mid sixties... Some interesting tunes to look for are "I Can't Explain", "Pictures of Lily", "The Good's Gone", "Boris the Spider", or "I Can See For Miles"... Everyone's done "My Generation", but it's still cool... The stuttering in that song is Roger Daltry mimicking a Mod on Methedrine, speeding his balls off...
Another group, with their band name and signature songs us, 🥁 Bad Company, and their song "Bad Company!" 🎶 🎸 🎵
Is: not us, sorry!
