The live 1978 version of "Won't Get Fooled Again" is great, with amazing performances by Townshend, Entwistle, Daltrey, but was filmed only weeks before Keith Moon's death. As good as Moon was, by 1978 he was only a shadow of his usual drumming ability. To see Moon at his peak, check out "A Quick One While He's Away", recoreded live at the "Rolling Stones R&R Circus". Maybe the Greatest drumming "performance" ever filmed. Also check out The Who's "Young Man Blues" live at Isle of Wight 1970.
I got a request for the isle of man performance so we will be doing that next! Can't wait for more who!
@@L33Reacts Just make sure it's the Isle of Wight gig from 1970....the video version. Watching Keith and Pete feeding off each other as the performance gets more intense by the minutes is a thing of beauty. Roger Daltrey's vocals are so intense, at times he uses 2 microphones simultaneously. And John Entwistle keeps it all together, steady as an Ox on the bass! When you react to "Young Man Blue's" at Isle of Wight, keep in mind The Who started their set at about 2am and played until about 4:30am.
Young man blues from isle of man
Moon was still great at the end.
Or Moon anytime from the late 1960s through around 1975 - though some times he wasn't at his best during those times.
When asked beatles or stones, any true rocker knows the answer is THE WHO!
The answer is all three
I can’t say that for The Beatles but Stones kinda overrated. The Who kicks Stones’ a** imho.
The Bloody WHO!!!!!
Any cool person knows the answer is THE KINKS
Those three bands are like the really great big-budget studio movies, and the Kinks are like a great independant film. Both are great in their own way. And it's great that we get to have both types!@@DerekDerekDerekDerekDerekDerek
"Meet the new boss...same as the old boss" is the most rock and roll line ever written imo.
it applies to sunak & starmer!!!

I strongly recommend listening to “The Real Me” and “5:15” Both are off the Quadrophenia album. The Real Me in particular is known as an incredible tour de force bass performance…. Along with some incredible drumming from our boy, Keith Moon.
Did you know the Muppet named “Animal” (who was a drummer on the Muppet Show)was created as an homage to Moonie?
When you looked at the year and said 1971, it took me back and I took a quick look at the albums that year; who’s next, aqualung by Tull, sticky fingers from the stones, Led Zeppelin 4, fragile by Yes , and so many more. A great year for rock music
Totally agree! The late 60's into the early 70's were the best period in popular music, (the decade of 1966 to 1974????). And of all those year,1971 was likely the best. Every great band was at it's peak.
I was a teen when this was released in 71- we said the same thing. Goddamn! It was a fantastic time to be a teen.
All this back then was our pilgrimage,there was so many great outfits to see Live even in halls in pubs marvellous
The best time to be a teen. We were SO lucky!
I agree.
L33: Tony Williams, the great jazz drummer who at age 17 kicked ass by getting the gig as Miles Davis' drummer, loved Keith Moon, called his drumming "as free as a bird in flight". And the anthemic quality of this power chord masterpiece is tempered with the world weary wisdom of the lyrics. What a song, what a band, what a mighty noise!
Tony was my guy... but then again so was Moonie
I think people will still be listening to great 1970s music 100 years in the future.
500 years from now!
Keith Moon was one of the very few drummers at the time whose limbs worked completely independently of each other. Rated as one of the greatest rock drummers of all time.
_Daltrey said that Moon "just instinctively put drum fills in places that other people would never have thought of putting them_ - Chapman (biographer)
Young man blues live Isle Of White is a must watch for any Who fan.
I'm telling you. Do "Bargain" from this same album. The drumming is mind melting.
It’ll be the best he’s ever heard.
🎶THE BEST HE’S EVER HEARD!🎵😂
This release is a cornerstone of classic rock. A real rock band no posing here. John Entwistle on Bass and Keith Moon on drums is one of the best rhythm section ever. R.I.P. John and Keith
“Meet the new boss, same as the old boss”… one of those iconic rock lyrics for sure.
"Who's Next" is one of the five best rock albums of all time.
Yep, it's like having a greatest hits album. All the songs are fantastic.
Never
The Who had tons of great songs like this. Check out Baba O'Reily next. Their live album, Live at Leeds, is one of the best live albums ever. A definite need to check out!
Live at Leeds! An “if you were deserted on an island” albums and certainly in the Top 5 best live LPs in rock. Young Man’s Blues is insane.
my two desert isle albums would be The Stones' Beggars Banquet and The Band's Big Pink. But Live at Leeds would definitely be on the top 5!@@mikewoodrow5878
If you weren't paying attention to the lyrics, give it a closer listen. One of the greatest political anthems of all times, and maybe even more relevant today than it was then.
No doubt about it. Where is this type of music today? The world is screaming for the musicians of the late 60's right now
Absolutely .Very relevant today .
Control of the masses ,by division and fear
Not hardly
And yeah, widely considered the best Rock and Roll scream, can't ding it for anything. No words
Great tune from my time. I'm 68yrs old and another song that has that build up too. Status Quo..Forty five Hundred Times... great time too...
You also have to remember, my young friend, that this is a band that played at absolutely earsplitting volume pretty much all the time. Their record was 126 decibels, which is roughly the equivalent of standing next to a siren, and causes immediate hearing loss. And remember, there were no in-ear monitors back then. They stood right in front of it.
Thanks for the video and the sweet appreciation. The Who at this point were at their peak this whole LP is perfect and timeless. As a drummer I love Moon's playing but his other half John " The Ox " Entwistle is one of the top Rock bassists ever. If you ever hear isolated tracks of Entwistle or even Moon it's mind blowing. A legendary band for a reason. More Who Dr Lee !
I don't even much like the who, but Entwhistle's ability to create a cogent rhythm section with someone as unpredictable as Moon boggles my mind. The guy is so underrated. I like Moon btw - and Townsend and Daltrey - all individually. Just never really clicked with the Who. This song's ace tbf tho . . . talking myself outta stuff now . . .
Treat yourself to the live version off the Who documentary "The Kids are Alright". The closing moments of this song, where Roger screams, is accompanied by Pete Townshend, leaping across the stage, landing on his knees and sliding to a stop, in slow motion, is one for the ages. It's been turned into a Gif.
Glad you first did the studio version of "Won't Get Fooled Again.". This song has my all-time favorite drumming, Keith Moon is just awesome throughout the entire song. Just brilliant! It's great to see you finally reacting to The Who. One of the most influential rock bands ever. From 1964-65 they were founders of the hard-rock "power-trio". Their Concept albums "Tommy", "Who's Next" and "Quadrophenia" helped create "Prog-Rock". Their blistering performances had them often voted the best live band of 1960's/1970's.
"Who's Next" (1971) has got to be their best album in terms of radio airplay. I've even heard "My Wife" on classic rock stations.
Every song on the album has its own wikipedia page.
Our music was so amazing in the 1970s and it still is,lol.
Ok Lee. Now it can be told. I saw them perform this live in 1973. Opening night at the Music Hall in Boston. 3 ROWS FROM THE STAGE DEAD IN FRONT OF PETE TOWNSHEND.
Best concert and seating EVER!!!
Excellent observation about what radio WAS and what it has become.
This album has no even mediocre songs. Baba O’Reiley, Bargain and Behind Blue Eyes are excellent.
Definitely gonna check out the rest of the album. It sounds legendary lol
Hey Lee. This is one of those rare albums where every single track was played on just about every station throughout the decades -- some more than others, of course -- but each track is memorable. To me, it's a 5-Star (or perhaps even a 5 1/2 Stars) masterpiece of hard melodic rock - I strongly suggest, that even if you don't do any other reactions from Who's Next, you listen to the entire album during your off hours. Simply amazing. Quadrophenia, the follow-up album, is equally as excellent, although I'm unsure if I would rate that with the extra 1/2 Star - since it's longer and perhaps several of the tunes aren't as catchy (but neverthless awesome). If you do decide to continue with this album,I strongly suggest you start right at the very beginning with a song ("Baba O'Riley") that you might recognize - a classic that's been played as much as "Won't Get Foled Again" thanks to its unforgettable opening section. Anyway, enjoy!
I will start from the beginning on either record we start with! Can't wait. We are making a pit stop at isle of man then moving on to an album 😊
@@L33Reacts Isle of Wight - but yes, do that!
Can't wait to see your reaction videos for the other songs on this album. Love your channel!@@L33Reacts
@@L33Reacts This song the tract LIVE of The Who - Won't Get Fooled Again (Shepperton Studios / 1978) is the one too. They act in body movements as they said they were... High as kites. BUT AWESOME.... 18 million views for this one on youtube.
"Meet the new boss, same as the old boss . . ." Nothing ever changes . . .
If you want to see Keith at full speed, check out The Who Live at the Isle of Wight doing Young Man Blues. Unreal performance by the whole band.
Roger Daltry : The loudest; MOST powerful SCREAM in rock at the close ! Grew up with THE WHO at volume ! 🎸🥁🎵🎶💫💥
This was one of the songs salvaged from PeteTownshend’s “Lifehouse” project, which had been intended as a follow-up rock opera to “Tommy”, but fell apart before completion. Townshend was a genius composer, probably the best of the era.
Eclipsed perhaps only by Roger Waters.
The album was a must-have for anyone who liked good rock music. So many good songs on it.
Yep, if you don't have a copy of this in your album collection then you're not a rock fan.
Should've played the live at Shepperton Studio version to be completely amazed at this performance song. I recommend the live performance song of Grand Funk Railroad's tune, "Inside Looking Out" for one of the very best performance songs ever!
The drummer and guitarist of the Who had a special communication together. Same with the Hendrix Experience. So glad I saw the who with Moon on drums. What a huge talent.
I bought this album in September of 1971. From the first time the needle hit the record Who’s Next has been my all-time favorite record. Every song is great. Seeing the band in concert at the height of their power was like no other band. Go for more!
One of the many standout moments in this song for me is the line Daltrey delivers "'Cause you know that the hypnotized never lie" answered a couple of bars later by Townshend's sardonic, half-murmured "Do ya?"
Classic. 😮🎉
Great reaction thanx! Always loved the who and found wuadraphenia a real master piece! Tommy the rock opera was revolutionary! Clapton Elton John tina turner, tonnes of music stars!
The best rock scream ever.
For me personally this is the greatest guitar and drum, pure rock sound the world has ever heard!
watch the live version you can see how powerful a concert was I saw them twice. Rock the house to the max.
One of the most iconic screams in Rock history, laugh. And I'm glad you shouted out the bass guitar really early on, in fact sometimes I'll go through this whole song just listening to John Entwistle and it's mind-blowing. It's so perfect and it's so creative and it can become almost a solo of sorts that's just woven into other stuff going on but it's so good.
That's so many hits going way back into the 60s and I really love that early stuff as well, but some other just towering songs by them are Baba O'Riley, and, Who Are You?
Who's Next is a classic album, all the tracks are good, I was listening to this the first time I ever smoked some weed, in 1971, so it always reminds me of that. 😎
Saw the Who in Cardiff South Wales in the 60s just after Tommy came out. The band came on stage and Moon sat down and grabbed his mic and said,' Hello you Welsh bastards' and they went straight into the first number. Never forgotten that. Not too long after saw Led Zeppelin in same city. They were great times.
John Entwistle's solo album was a GOOD ONE!
"Behind Blue Eyes."
Short, but unforgettable.
Nope
One of the best rock and roll screams of all time! And Keith Moon is one of a kind!
Moon layed it all out on this track, blood and sweat. If you have ever tried to drum along, the last minute of the drums, (right before the synthisizer solo) is just mind-boggling to keep up with. Exausting and thrilling to try and play. On Keith's very last drum hit, you can just hear him in the background giving a yell. Likely, Moon's arms and legs were blasted by that point. Great to listen to the "isolated drum track" for "Fooled Again", the yell is a bit clearer too.
One of the greatest albums of all time, and arguably The Who's best by far. This one spawned many hits and every song has had lots of FM radio play time. This one is a POWERFUL rocker.
Your remarks on today’s music versus the classic period (mid 60s to mid 70s) is so 100% spot on. This is but one outstanding track, as you have noted. Another one that really hits home and demonstrates the unity and one-ness of the music and culture of the times - the Beatles’ Hey Jude, live on the David Frost TV show. It is virtually identical to the studio version, but visually captures the generational mood of the time so very well indeed. Please give it a listen.
"The Real Me" is a great suggestion! The whole Quadrphenia album is a concept album about coming of age.
I used to have 2 paper routes, mow yards, rake leaves, shovel snow, and a tv guide route. I bought a fabulous stereo. Pioneer Receiver, United Audio Dual Turntable, Marantz Imperial 7 speakers. This whole album was first on turntable. Amazing! Then my brother put on ELP Tarkus. What a start for my personal rock break in.
You seem so amazed that this is from 1971, but keep in mind Led Zeppelin was doing stuff at this same level at that time, including "Stairway to Heaven." (Not to mention "Fragile" by Yes and "Tarkus" by ELP came out that same year too.) The early 70s totally rocked!
You're a good man.
We need more good men.
Moon EARNED his money!!! He was so much fun to watch as well! He was the show as far as i was concerned!!
That is real ROCK AND ROLL!!
Every song on Who's Next is a classic. Keep on going, you'll love each song.
That scream by Roger Daltrey is known as the greatest scream in rock.
Well that and Joe Cocker….Little Help……
Nope Fanboy...Jim Morrison
Never mind 1971 The who formed in 1964 and were outstanding and era defining from the outset. This is not an isolated must be their best song deal they are always this good. To start with go back to the beginning and do My Generation, you will get the gist. You have to grasp how good the 60's were .
One of the best intros ever👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
The Who were one of the great bands to see live. I saw them twice in 1968 and 1971 and I'm glad I saw them when Enwistle and Moon were still with us.
“A once in a lifetime kinda song” says it perfectly. This anthem for the times was way ahead of its time. Find something to read on how Pete Townsend created the electronic synth loop using 1970’s technology. Phenomenal. Nothing like it had been heard before.
Yes Quadrophenia is symphonic. You have to listen nto the whole album and the story it tell of dissafected kids in England in the 1950’s early ’60’s.
You’re also right about radio and tv being so fragmented. We all listened to everything back then. Maybe didn’t LIKE it all, but heard it. I could show you Top 40 lists where Frank Sinatra, the Beatles, Aretha Franklin, the Who and Freddy Fender (Country Western singer) were all on the chart at once
Glad you agree Johnny. I will check into that with pete, sounds crazy! It sucks how specialization eventually ends up with each person ends up living in there own world and the only connection is through a screen. Sad dystopian vibes right there... 😊
Greatest Rock Band Ever
Top 10 album of mine. Song is timeless and lyrics ageless and spot on.
We knew The Who were ahead of their time back then, at least my mom can say that. I’m only 54.😮
Me too
YES ,more of , The who !
Lets be honest here, my fellow rockers....
Has there ever been a band that has remotely come up witj a song that sounds like this? Maybe there is...I just haven't found it yet, and I'm 66 f-in years old! The all time great scream!!
I don’t think anyone had as much fun as Moon had playing the drums.
Yes, this is the music I was listening to at the time as I transitioned from junior high to high school. A time in rock history like no other. I'm almost 67 years old. I grew up during the very best of rock times.
Great reaction! Loved your commentary on music and society today. I couldn't have said it better.
Like many bands in 1971, The Who were completely original with no real predecessors, breaking completely new ground.
The Who has an incredible catalaogue, especially from their very first album ('My Generation') to Quadrophenia. Many songs to react to but I'm strongly suggesting the live version of 'My Generation' from 'Live at Leeds' (which is a medley of many songs). From that same album, 'Young Man Blues' and 'Shakin' All Over' are also insanely good. A few singles not included in any of their major albums, but excellent songs(and ignored by most reviewers): 'The Seeker,' 'Relay,' 'Let's See Action' and 'Join Together.'
An undeniably great track and possibly one of the greatest basslines ever created by John Entwistle.
Baba O’riley baby! You’ve just gained a new subscriber, and seriously, Who’s Next is an amazing album, definitely worth your time. If you find you can’t get to it though, I’d suggest Baba O’riley from the same album. I’m loving your reactions, keep it up!
This song used for theme song of TV’s CSI series!❤
Love The Who!!❤
One of my favorite Who albums!
The entire album is perfection
You add your comments without stopping the track, that's brilliant! You're the only one ive heard doing videos like this. Stopping a video to add a comment is so frustrating. Keep it up man!
One of the first albums to use a synthesizer. There's a short video on RUclips that shows Pete playing with it. It was the size of a small room.
Sometimes The Who are just magical.
Dude you gatta do the live version from 1978 Sheperton Studios 💥💥💥💥🔥🔥🔥
Seriously! The studio version is great but the 1978 live version is one of THE best live rock performances ever!
We will definitely be doing it. This was a request and they asked for the studio. But we'll do it 😊
@@L33Reacts you will see Greatness and Craziness 💥🔥
Good reaction. Need to check them out live. Their like a different animal live.
Moon is always stellar... 'who are you' has some tasty drum work
This always makes me a little sad and wistful with the keyboard sound in the middle, then roars back out of it. Makes me think fondly of CSI too ❤
In 1971 I bought Who's Next, After the Gold Rush, Ten Years After's A Space in Time + John Lennon Debut @ Flo's Record store in Pittsburgh Freshman year college 4 LPs for $10. Got my money's worth. Great reactions. Who's Next is a sonic experience w headphones + volume.
Check out Amazing Journey/Sparks from their Live at Leeds album, as it shows some of Keith's chops. It was recorded shortly before this album came out and shows The Who at their best. Raw, Powerful and incredibly gifted.
I had it so good growing up from 1960 until now, so much great music. There is still great stuff coming out every day but just not as many totally different bads doing sonhgs that will always be heard and never fade away.
got this album the week it came ouut.still listen to it like it was the first time one of the best rock albums ever.
I'm new to your channel and enjoy it very much. I was looking forward to this reaction of one of the greatest songs on one of the greatest albums ever. Looks like you're on your way to exploring The Who.
Several people in the comments have already made great suggestions of Who material so I'd like to mention another band's performance to react to and that is Santana and their performance of Soul Sacrifice in the Woodstock doc. It's an instrumental and put Santana on everyone's radar as they were a brand new band. Everyone on it is on fire but as a drummer you will be blown away by Michael Shrieve's performance behind the kit. It is amazing especially when you realize he had just turned 20. The dynamics of this song are wonderful to behold and required listening for anyone interested in classic rock.
My Fav WHO LP. Moon kicks ass on this track! Townshend shows his GENIUS ! ! ! ...Newk from Kentucky
My favorite band and favorite album by them seen them live three times in the early to mid 70s They once held the Guinness book of world records for highest dB recorded at a concert I would literally be deaf for three days after going to their concerts Giddy Lee from Rush once said if he stranded on a Deserted island with just a record player and three albums who’s next would be one of them
Who's Next is still on my playlist after all these years.
Pete Townshend (pronounced "towns end") does a lot of the lead vocals in The Who too. He has the softer, higher voice, while Daltrey has the gruff, gritty voice.
I love the whole Quadraphenia album. find myself favoring side two.: "I'm One" . through , "I've had Enough." great flow of narrative and music.
I have seen The Who in concert 3 times. They are my favorite live band.
I was 17 in 1971 and we were blessed with some great music. There were two great albums released in 1971: Who’s Next & Led Zeppelin IV. In college I would listen to these while cramming for an algebra exam😁
Keith Moon definitely quite a dynamic drummer and Entwistle on that bass….what a combo in the rhythm section,lol.
When I was 10 I got a record player, 1 album, and one 45rpm single for christmas. The album was Elvis Live in Hawaii and the single was Won't Get Fooled Again. Even though The Beatles, Metallica, Tool and Opeth are my favorite bands this song is still in my all time favorites playlist. And yes I know that my favorites are all over the spectrum, especially considering that Mel Torme and Vivaldi are on there also.
My older brother loved the Who when I was little. They were in the the Guinness book of world records for worlds loudest rock band.
I love the way you were talking there at the end. Music today, communication, too many options and no one is together. I grew up in the fifties and sixties. My music is sixties and seventies. I really enjoy watching your generation tuning into my music. I wish I could sit there with you through the track and tell you where this or that came from or referred to. Please keep playing and sharing this 'old shit' It's the best!!!
these are some of the people who taught us about rock and roll -- love it
One of the greatest rock songs from one of the greatest rock albums. As others have said check out the live version from shepperton studios in 1978.
Great insight on how the fact that there are so many niche choices to get entertainment now isn't really a good thing. Back in the 60's and 70's you had just a few FM stations per market and they'd play anything from folk, blues, rock, progressive and other genres rather than just one specific genre. This exposed us to many forms of great music we wouldn't have otherwise heard. Just look at the variety of acts at Woodstock from Hendricks to Joni Mitchell. I was truly blessed to grow up in that era.
