The two lines Moon says right before that are taken from an album by his friends, the Bonzo Dog Band, the funniest band in the history of rock and roll.
This to me demonstrates why the Who were such a special band. Not that a Quick One is as serious as Tommy or Quadrophenia, but they could write theses records with themes and storylines as complicated and with as much depth of human understanding as anyone, but then make total fun of the whole thing on stage, and finish it all up by smashing their instruments and partying as hard as any band ever. No band has ever been so intellectually and artistically deep yet so destructive.
John and Keith sharing a mic at the end and a sweet peck on the cheek! So priceless! Where is the rest of the song? Incredible to see the happy banter....I missed out, but feel so blessed to see all of the film, so much awesome film!
Ginger Ann missed seeing Keith explode on the intro of Quick One. Ginger, in case you haven’t seen The Who’s performance of this tune on The Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus, then for sure check it out. I think it’s one of their best performances.
In 1974 at the age of 8 is when I made The Who my official favorite band! I loved Elvis then the Sweet but then I discovered THE WHO and all bets were off!! I somehow obtained a copy of the album Who’s Next and simply played it over and over again! What a wonderful childhood with true musicians!! My Fad and I always agreed on Elvis, lynyrd skynyrd, and Jonny Cash! But my Rock and Roll was about to get much harder!
If only band's today could have banter like that Keith Moon was so entertaining in the background they were such a great group ! 👏👏👏👏👏👏Cherry Bomb 💥😵💥👂
Just fyi Page spent alot of time looking at Bonham because they kinda played off each other in kinda the way bassists and drummers usually do, it's one of the things that gave LZ a unique sound. He was always more comfortable standing near Bonzos kit. Moon and Daltrey did the same thing in alot of their songs. Keith loved the spotlight and his personality kept him up front kinda with the other guy, whereas most like being in back behind the drums. You can see this in live clips in both bands, it's like he drums to the lyrics and it makes his style and Who's sound very unique.
Sophisticated dry wit recall the vaudevillian days great comedic timing an original way of funny narrative interpretation. Steve Martin, Bill Murray, Monty Python Faulty Towers and a Fish Call Wanda. Cheers Sir Peter, Sir Rodger and bandmates.
Moon's opening patter either comes from, or was immediately after used on, a recording by the Bonzo Dog Band from 1969, "The Bride Stripped Bare by Bachelors." At 1:51 in the song, it's the same line with the same inflection. Keith did some side project recording with the Bonzos.
This was also recorded at the Live at Leeds concert but didn't appear until the extended version of the concert was released some years after the original six track album. A second extended version of Live at Leeds appeared considerably later that included a full rendition of Tommy
@@andyl0261 I never said it was at Leeds, I said that A Quick One was a part of the Leeds show but didn't appear on the original album but only after the full concert was eventually released several years later. Smartarse.
General commenting on the kiss Keith gives John, but nobody noticed that in the end the two laugh together because Keith tried to kiss, but John put his hand in front, lol hahaha
I’m going to surprise it how quiet the crowd remains during the stage banter. Because… I’ve certainly heard occasions when fans in the audience start to get a little restless when it’s too much chatter. Must’ve been a Danish audience.
The who are and were and will always be fukin amazing and one of the best bands in the world,is this by the way from the ‘live at leeds album’i think it is😎not the original release but a later one
The entire London Coliseum show is included as "bonus material" on The Who's "Live at Kilborn: 1977" DVD. Unfortunately film from the show is routinely yanked from youtube almost as quickly as it is posted.
He had to keep talking didn't he. Let Pete say his thing Keith. I think he had ADD. Too bad. They knew nothing about that back in the early seventies. He's such a nice looking young lad. It's a shame.
A show is over 2 hours long at that time, and the sound very loud. I think it's not a problem for people to have a little break listening to the Who's rantings.
maria maggisano What are you talking about there work is probably the best of all rock bands. Tommy, The Who Sell Out, Who's Next, Quadrophenia and My Generation are the best examples of their BEST WORK they also have The Who By The Numbers, Who Are You and A Quick One to complement their work, not to mention the best live album of all time Live At Leeds.
I can't agree-he was more than a great guitarist, he was one of the greatest songwriters in rock history, and damned lucky to have hooked up with the other three lads.
Stewart Nicol as BILLY CONNOLLY You obviously haven't listened to his demos, his solo albums and performances just on acoustic guitar (Secret Policeman's Ball, etc.).
One of my favorite bands ever, their efforts at "humor" have never been anything less than fully cringe-worthy to me. Keith's especially. "Funny as a dead baby's open casket" to quote Sir Lawrence Olivier (while speaking of Moliere's comedies, strangely enough). Nonetheless, among the greatest rock and roll bands ever.
I'll never forget the night Pete was introducing the meaning of Eminence Front while I was having a conversation with Roger Daltrey at center stage. I requested a song. Roger said the set list was already in place for that night. I said "how about tomorrow night in Boston". Roger said he'd try. The next night in Boston they played the song I requested. And I got to meet Roger after the show that night. And I got to meet Pete too that night.
People can't even enjoy I mean whenever I got o a concert of anybody I enjoy them talking because I feel like they care and they do for the crowd and they connect with us. Even with this type od banter
~ I saw Pink Floyd in 1994, and even though it was a _fantastic_ show, the logistics prevented any spontaneity or interaction with the audience. This is good on its own terms, given the type of band this was.
@@5jerry1 "the logistics prevented any spontaneity or interaction with the audience. " Of course, don't forget that Waters hates the audience and that The Wall, in his mind, was supposed to be between him and the audience.
"You look like you've come to mend the electricity". lol
Funniest thing ever!

You look like a bloody ploomer!!!
Keith Moon heckling his own band is one of my favorite things
My favorite is when he was straight up booing John while Pete was introducing Boris The Spider. I think this is the same concert. He was hilarious!
Keith was always very spontaneous and quick-witted, with a mischievous sense of humour - and a much better singer than most people realise.
A matter of fact, he never took anything seriously, and that includes singing
Luis Mario Guerrero Sánchez He was more vulnerable than people realise, and used buffoonery to conceal embarrassment.
Masters of music
In My life is amazing, bring me to tears
@@MrBamcito beatles original version is better
How can you not love them? Awesome yet different personalities
Ever notice each had a sign that was earth fire air water

Yes and they were very close. I mean how often do you see bands joking, hugging, and pecking each other in the cheek on stage live? adorable
When a rock band could talk and the audience stayed quiet.
Most modern bands can barely talk to the audience let alone entertain them oh why is life so boring now ! 😱👤🔫
The Beatles left the chat.
@@rafailkarampetsos6914
"Shut up- Shut up while he's talking!"
**More screaming ensues**
Kieth and John singing in harmony like that is so warming and comforting for some strange reason... I have no idea why?
Keith full-on kissing John on the mouth and then both of them giggling over it is too good
Keith was trying to make John flinch, but John stayed still as a statue. So he kissed him and finally got a reaction lol
I don't know, John would've just said "Oh, cut it out, Keith!"
This band, at this time, was unstoppable. Moon and the Ox were the most formidable rhythm section in rock.
God I miss that band.
Pete has such kind eyes.. same with Keith.
Most beautiful definitely
No one knows what it’s like…
@@christinecollins6648 I do 😥
So wild that Pete was only 24 when Tommy was released in 1969.
Roger's got a front row seat to that entertaining exchange. :)
miss Keith so much
Incredible drummer
it's funny how Keith laughs
pachis Jimenez Its infectious!
Pete created the mini-opera to make a joke, love it.
2:23 we play the private parts LMFAO Keith is the Ultimate Troll in Rock And Roll History.
Who?
"a rather little movement"
"All over my new Persian....." Pete and Keith were as funny as Johnny Carson and Robin Williams during this exchange!
“It’s another month of the year” gets me no matter how many times I watch this video
This is super cool! Thank God it was filmed!
Fished out of a dumpster per Jeff Stein, if I recall correctly.

There should be more songs about engine drivers seducing girl guides... it's what's missing in today's music ;)
Don’t forget the private parts
Love the early Who especially,but still love them now.
I do love the who they were brilliant and I always listened to them weekly
They never took themselves seriously, injected humor but most of all there agenda was to rock your socks off.
....Oh now I think Pete certainly took himself very seriously at times. Nothing wrong with that by me.
This is cool Moon laughing and one liners were funny.
These guys are the clockwork orange droogs of the British music scene...

The Who AT THEIR TIGHTEST and still brilliantly goofy between songs 😂
Amazed PT got through that long story without something getting lobbed at him from the crowd.
Ppl didnt really do that so much then like the impatient entitled little twits do now!
No one does that now. If you did you'd be instantly arrested probably. Concerts were a lot more rowdy back then.

They looked bloody wicked together.
Thx for posting... really great

All of this is hilarious, but I laughed the hardest when Pete went to go pat Kieth’s shoulder 😂😂😂😂😂
Whether they knew it or not, Pete and Keith acted like they were brothers.
This looks like it's around the time of live at leeds when they were at their very best,incredibly powerful band.......
I wish I had been there.
Some of the funniest live 60s Rock material here, with one of the best punchlines youll ever hear,,,,,
Miss those guys
I didn't know Keith had such a lovely voice!
K but is no one gonna talk about how Keith kissed Enty right on the lips
Keith: goes in for a kiss; lands it
Enty: simultaneously shoves a finger up Keith’s nose. “HA!”
Keith: you almost got me!
You can have your Neil Peart. I still love Moonie.

They were like a comedy team.

Its from Live at London and was released at an extra on Live at Killburn. Not exactly Live at Leeds but in the same "Era" ;)
Not many people know that Pete started out in life as a stand up comedian. After a failed Las Vegas stint he picked up a guitar.
I had one of your pizzas for dinner tonight.
Lol ..sure..
Fellas, is it gay to kiss your homie after some quality harmonys
It’s not gay if you aren’t gay
Yes, yes it is.
@@NintendoGameTube1 awesome
Keith Moon said gay rights
Townshend really did play "The girl guide".
on and on and on
Not sure if this is Pete or Ross from Friends
Pete Townshend is a fuckin genius. That's all I have to say.
Pete actually looked good and clean with his hair long and white outfit
Keith Moon is the first troll of rock and roll
Crowd is so quiet.
~ It's London. It seems live performances in England tend to have quieter audiences.

Jimmy Hendrix and Jim Morrison showed you Ha !!!
@Blue In red don't know much about the 60's do ya ! . I do I was there before you we're . I hope he chokes on pot smoke .
Keith wasn’t all there in the head, was he?
He was probably a genius, but yes, had some mental issues.
0:53 Bonzos reference ? Or did they copy Keith ?ruclips.net/video/8qV-0suglNY/видео.html
Gee not a bad drummer!
He had to keep talking didn't he. Let Pete say his thing Keith. I think he had ADD. Too bad.
They knew nothing about that back in the early seventies. He's such a nice looking young lad.
It's a shame.
~ Moon was most likely ADD, but without question, he was attention starved.
Whole thing's rather creepy.
How?
It's a nice interaction, but that's a lot chatter when people want to hear music.
Probably would have been quick but Keith having to say one liners lol
Entertaining chatter though.

Who cares live is what it's about it's easy to sound good in studio not so easy live.
