  • Initial transfer of my 8mm original films from that memorable day on the field. One of my first concerts and easily one of the greatest. Thanks to John Waters at American Video (www.american-video.com) for the expert work digitizing and arranging for sound syncing from another source.
    An upcoming longer film about the entire event, with fully edited film and additional film and video from other sources, is also in the works at American Video!
    Meanwhile, enjoy!

    As the story goes, Townsend started wearing jump suits because he got tired of dressing up in fancy eighteen century costumes (Monterey Pop). I believe the quote was, " This is work. I'm wearing work clothes." An iconic decision.

      This is 1970, nobody was using lasers yet, and this is outdoor out in the day so naturally they can't set up their lights and smoke. Even Led Zeppelin (which later became infamous of their extreme onstage effects, just look up their performances of Dazed and Confused on the 75 tour and Jimmy Page's bow solo in the 77 tour) were very simplistic back in 1970. Contrary to the fashion standards of the period, Jimmy would either dress like a fisherman or a hobo and Bonzo would usually just wear a tank top.
      By the mid-70s, every popular band (including the Who) were using lasers, pyrotechnics and all kinds of gimmicks in their shows.

    My buddy and I attended this show. Bonnie Bramlett sat cross-legged on the side of the stage. Blues Image, John Sebastian, and Leon Russell opened. The Who’s sonic assault, as a trio, was suited to the environs of Angel Stadium, whereas, the other acts, with keyboards, multiple guitars had a crummy mix. Of course, they had been touring for 5 years straight, by this time, and pretty much no one could touch them. The Who must have been the premier touring band, at the time, and certainly prooved it that afternoon, on June 14th.

    I went with six of my friends and sat on a blanket in the outfield. I was fifteen. It was an amazing day. Blues image opened. They had their one hit "ride captain ride" and played it along with a clumsy version of the Star Spangled Banner. John Sebastian came out with a guitar and a small amp and played some of his songs. Then Leon Russel, and my one regret is that I had never heard of him and didn't know who he was and so have no memory at all of his performance. Then the Who came on and I snaked my way through the crowd right up to the stage and watched Pete Townsend in his white overalls and the rest of the band do their thing before returning to my friends and the food and pot we were sharing. Truly a memorable day and how fantastic to see this footage!

      Never thought of it before, but i imagine the 'freeness' of the jumpsuit must have encouraged him to experiment with his windmilling, scissor kicks and flying jumps. Not only a genius song-writer and really good singer and guitarist, but extremely physical on stage (during this era). I think he fed off Moon. Eventually Roger needed to compete with Pete's physical antics and started doing the swinging microphone later in the 70s.

And, for the record, it's not "haphazard editing", it's the limitations of a 20-second wind-up camera.

    Wow! This is spectacular! I didn't know The Who played Angel stadium in 1970, I thought it was 1976. I got to see The Who post Keth Moon, sadly, in 1989. It was incredible but of course it was missing one of the most iconic drummers of all time. I live not far from Angel stadium and have seen many baseball games there. I would have given anything to see The Who live in 1970. At that time they were the greatest live band ever, they couldnt be touched.

    Eddie, the quality is stunning for 8mm. I first saw The Who in March 1968 at Drew University in New Jersey. I was 14 years old. Tickets were $3.50, and the band performed on a stage in the college gym. Show ended in a psychedelic splash of flashing colored lights, smoke bombs, and equipment smashing. As a live act, nobody could touch them . . . In 1971 I caught their "Who's Next" tour in Boston. Moonie came out from behind his drums, and circled them - playing the whole time. He never missed a beat!

    I'm impressed at how loud they managed to get the vocals. Figured they would have gotten drowned out on a Who stage. Moon's a bit drowned out from this perspective (we hear mostly stage sound....I'm sure 50ft back the PA woulda had him louder, although, hey, no overhead mics on the kit. The vocal mics woulda picked up the cymbals well enough I suppose )

    Leon Russell on the other hand was amazing and his band was killer. No idea who he was at the time but he had that stadium rocking. I actually forgot about The Who during his set.
    The Who were absolutely on fire at this stage of their career. All I can say is you had to be there. I remember a stunning young woman walk on stage between songs, remove her top and walked right past Pete into the welcome arms of Roger Daltry. Townsend grabbed his mike and shouted: “get her off the f*****g stage now!” Those were the days. All for about $5 I think.
