@IamSkullrules , John Lennon played an Epiphone casino. The best guitar I've ever played, unplugged unfortunately, was a Blonde Epiphone casino. It felt like it was made especially for me. It just felt right. This was a 1970 American made model. This was around 1974 and i couldn't afford the £375, second hand price. I've never forgotten about that guitar. It's the one that got away.
I agree, seen them 3 times in L.A. ( late 60's/early70's) they always gave it their all, each concert - pure blitzing power and when you left, you would say WOW !!! all the way home... and the next day... the next week...
Roger said the sun was rising during this song. He said they couldn’t ask for a better light show. Could you imagine seeing this epic performance and the sun coming up right at the end of Tommy? Damn…
Definitivamente, casi que no tocan segun tengo entendido, pero al final tocaron a las 5:00 am....se imaginan....pero al fin tocaron....esta cancion fue la que mas me impacto cuando vi la pelicula documental Woodstock 69.....mirame, sienteme, tocame, saname.....
Absolutely correct. I was 17 years old in 1989 and had been a rabid Who fan since I was 10. I had all their albums, vhs tapes lol and my room was plastered with Who posters and cut out pics from magazines. I was fortunate enough to get tickets to the 1989 Tommy tour at Carter Finley Stadium in North Carolina. I remember walking out of the stadium after the show and thinking to myself…. I get it now. I understand why they’re the greatest live band of all time. I thought I understood before but until you’ve witnessed it for yourself it’s hard to describe. 72,000 people singing along with Pete in the break during Baba O’Riley and my goosebumps had goosebumps. Who songs were meant to be played live in front of an audience. Pete wrote rock anthems that can only be truly appreciated live at an incredible volume. They were an awesome studio band but live they were legends. Just out of this world.
@@johndardi1334Your story~ description gave me chills! So very lucky & wish I’d tried to see them perform, a major regret. Thank goodness for these vids
They were doing that way before zeppelin arrived and hovered up the plaudits for the powerful live sound, the who and Pete particularly were irked with that and they didn't have to steal the yardbirds live show to get started either!
With My Generation The Who turned my world upside down when I was in school. The 2nd time during Woodstock. Best time of my life looking back almost 55 years ago. Especially because of the music and the way of life.
The who were the first concert I saw, it was fourth grade must’ve been around 07’ or 08’, changed my life forever, to this day the most powerful and enticing live band I have ever seen
Finally saw them live- just before John Entwistle died- and they did Quadrophenia live: with film projections on a big screen. Unbeleavible concert and fantastic performance.
@@ronfisher5259 My brother saw that tour. I missed it but I saw them in 1989 the Tommy show. It was a little different but The Who nonetheless. Best show I’ve ever seen in my life and the loudest with the clearest sound. Un freakin real
@@MisterM950 I watched before, this particular version has the band more in sync together. It was funny watch how great they were at the Isle of wight thinking after no band could match that but then the doors come on and are just as good but with a totally different energy and sound. So many great bands and diverse back then without the need for lables
This performance is what sparked my lifelong interest in music. The who are so cool they don't even seem like real people, only fictional characters have this kind of animal magnetism
This is maybe the most Rock & Roll moment I've ever seen. I don't care if people came later who could blast more notes per second - that ain't really Rock
Timeless classic. Must have watched the Woodstock movie about 10 times. Couldn't get tired of it. Ran out of pocket money. I was still in primary school. This performance was the highlight for me👌👍🕺🕺🕺
I saw the Who's farewell tour over 40 years ago (1981?), a few times in between and two nights ago in Los Angeles for the "Hits Back 2022" tour. Damn I so love their songs.
In terms of "live" music, for me this was the peak. This five minutes. It was never as good from anyone else and it would never peak like this again. And never will. It's like they were possessed for this brief moment in time.
This is one TOTALLY BADASS 😍❤️ VIDEO!!! SHOWS A LOT OF KEITH'S BADASS DRUMMING 😍💖❤️❤️❤️ Sincerely Darlene an American Girl who has a thing for drummers ❤️❤️❤️I LOVE ❤️😘💞 IT!!!
My wife and I were nearby the Woodstock site a couple years ago and we made the drive out there. I didn't know what to expect when I saw it but it turned out to be very powerful. I remember walking around where the stage was thinking that The Who stood right here, Jimi Hendrix stood right here!! 🙏❤️🥁🎸
I wanted to go. I had a babysitter for my 18-month-old baby but my 53 Chevy had a cracked block- my two friends and I figured it would take us over 100 quarts of oil to get there and back from Denver and we chickened out.
"The Who" is one of the best rock & roll bands of all time. Roger Daltrey had a very unique voice, the same as Robert Plant did. That's why in my opinion the "The Who" & "Led Zeppelin" were the best 2 R&R bands of all time. But I don't think that this performance was at Woodstock 1969, this song was released on the "Tommy" album which didn't come out until well after 1969.
They did indeed perform this at Woodstock ... the performance rocked the show & subsequently gave the record company plenty of heads up on how many albums to press for the release.
Even so-called Who fans nowadays never seem to mention Tommy.Quadrophenia and Who's Next are regarded as the classics they are,but Tommy is fu**ng awesome as well.Always preferred the live version of this song though.
@@PaperBanjo64 Hard to pick between Tommy,Who's next and Quadrophenia.I'd probably say Who's Next,but it was a run of classic albums.Tommy is a masterpiece but too many daft/weird bits.
Sorry to read that. My wife was there as well. As a 6-month-old baby with her parents all the way from the Toronto area. I am jealous of the fact that she was there and I wasn't... Both her parents are still alive and still enjoying life like they did in 1969!
YES !. A REAL ROCK GROUP. NONE OF THESE COMPUTERIZED CANDY ASS SO CALLED GROUPS OF NOWADAYS. THESE GUYS PLAYED INSTRUMENTS AND WROTE THEIR MUSIC. CLASS OF ROCKIN 84 HERE. ROCK ON GEN XERS!!.
Woodstock was the crescendo of Rock N Roll and The Who performance the summit of Mt. Everest. Theses guys were undoubtedly at their best and went off there. Keith Moon; ‘nough said.
He wanted to stay with us he was taking medicine to help him stop drinking. It's just back then nobody knew about addictive personality. And that's I think Keith had. He just kept taking the pills. Not knowing that he was killing himself. I hate hearing he died of a drug overdose it was an accident he shouldn't have been given all those pills. Now you only can get that kind of medicine when you are staying in the hospital so they can keep an eye on you.
@@jefferyfite7122 how you doing Jeff. I have been listening to THE WHO since the late 60s. And there's not a drummer to come close to Keith Moon. Ringo Starr son Zach is the drummer for THE WHO now and has been for a while now. And he used to sit on Keith's lap and play the drums with Keith. If you ever get a chance listen to Zach playing with the who. I close my eyes and I hear Keith playing this is now good Zach is now. As for Keith he just had to take everything to extreme. He once blacked out in the middle of a concert in San Francisco. Someone ask him if he wanted to take a horse tranquilizer. He said I am Keith Moon and he took a few of them. But Pete Townshend ask if anyone could play the drums and this guy got up on stage and played the drums for the rest of the show. Now that's one lucky dude playing Keith Moon drum set. Keith was like a little kid at times. What also could have fucked him up was he killed his best friend driving his car. Look it up Keith and a couple of his friends went to open a new club and the kids started a fight with Keith. Keith friend got out of the car to make sure Keith was in the car and Keith got in the driver's seat and ran over his best friend and killed him. They said Keith was never the same. I was reading that he had add I think that's what it's called attention deficit. Jeff rock on buddy and make sure you listen to quadrophenia. The greatest drum's ever and the Bass playing is never going to be duplicated. All 4 of the guys in THE WHO are at the top of the best of what they do. Greatest rock band ever saw THE WHO 5 TIME'S.
It is easily forgotten now in the 21st century just how influential and powerful these guys were. They were at rightly ranked alongside the Stones as inheritors of the Beatles mantle. The world will never see their like again
The only band ever that managed to fuse the exiting improvisational side of jazz with the raw agressivness of rock. And for that matter, the dramatic beauty of really great classical music. Like Verdi..
Your comment seems a bit out of Focus... ruclips.net/video/-YRzPluIPfg/видео.html ( Edit: If you like it more jazzy: ruclips.net/video/pI7t-tAQx7c/видео.html )
Jerry Garcia once said even when they were frying so hard they couldn't speak, the Dead could always communicate through their instruments. Some kind of hive mind. The Who played so many gigs together they had a real sixth sense.
This was the peak of Woodstock...the crescendo....after the second break...coming back into it...Pete's windmill....over 500 thousand standing ,,,,if you listen hard enough, you'll hear a very loud whistle during the mid break lead. The Who became God's at this moment in history.
@Mike... Cheers! It's at 3:09... you've got great listening skills, ears! Never caught it the first time 'round. I measure every single band up to The Who (classic line up), and not many stack well, if at all. Not even their contemporaries do/did. But this is just my opinion. Wish I'd been born 2 decades earlier... I missed ALL of it. LOVE them!! (Saturday, April 9th, 2022@5:33pm EST)
Absolutely. Did you know Hendricks was supposed to have this time slot but the rain delayed everything, putting him in the daytime the next day. He was pissed but oh well.
I'm not a musician, but I know that the progressive increase in tempo without everyone losing it and crashing is NOT easy. Master musicians all of them.
The reason for pete being irked over the years about the ott stuff written about led zeppelin, as great as zep were and the phenomenal impact they had the who were doing the stuff zeppelin were being credited for long before them and better imop, zep were show ponies compared to the tight powerful live brilliance of the who.
Ladies and gentlemen...boys and girls.........this is rock music at its very, very best.....
Amen sir. 🤘🏻
Nothing to add your comment is the fuckin true!! The Who great amazing band!
Amen brother
Truth! RIP Moonie and John Entwhistle
Yes I agree, with led zep too 😅
A Gibson SG with P90's, through a Hiwatt stack and played by angry Pete Townshend is a glorious thing.
A great all round guitarist.. Alice Cooper said on tracks of my years with Ken Bruce that Pete was his favourite live guitarist
the 100-Watt Hiwatt's heads Pete Townsend and Jim Marshall created so Pete could keep up with the sheer volume Moon and Entwistle made, it was Pete Townsend who created Heavy Metal, without the 100- Watt Head Heavy Metal would have perhaps never happened, or would have been a little later in rock's evolution, Blue Cheer , the Detroit Sence, Psychedelic Garage Era Bands, the British Blues Era, Yardbirds, Kinks, even the Troggs " Wild Thing " not forgetting Eddie Phillips and the Creation then they had bigger amps and loudness happened, but to say the song Helter Skelter created Metal is a joke it's was Clapton and Page playing guitar on that song Vic Flick, but it wasn't Harrison or Lennon sorry they were hacks look at the guitars they played really Lennon played crap guitars
@IamSkullrules , John Lennon played an Epiphone casino. The best guitar I've ever played, unplugged unfortunately, was a Blonde Epiphone casino. It felt like it was made especially for me. It just felt right. This was a 1970 American made model. This was around 1974 and i couldn't afford the £375, second hand price. I've never forgotten about that guitar. It's the one that got away.
greatest live band on the planet. They will be watching this 100 years from now..
I agree, seen them 3 times in L.A. ( late 60's/early70's) they always gave it their all, each concert - pure blitzing power and when you left, you would say WOW !!! all the way home... and the next day... the next week...
guess who got the free drugs in,,,governments! Oh wait, medical opium ;-)
Saw The who 5 TIME'S AND MY EARS ARE STILL RINGING AND I fucking love it. The greatest rock band ever.
They better will
Tienen diez the Who unforgetableyy
Unbeatable performance at Woodstock. Ladies an gentlemen, This is How it is Done!
Pure Brilliance.
Jeff
1969 the hip people hippies died
Roger said the sun was rising during this song. He said they couldn’t ask for a better light show. Could you imagine seeing this epic performance and the sun coming up right at the end of Tommy? Damn…
Wish I had been there. If I had been a little older, I would have.
Ironically enough, the Tommy film gave us that.

This song I feel is a mantra for anyone struggling with depression, anxiety, or feel deaf dumb and blind like Tommy!!!
The Who gave an incredible performance at Woodstock
With My Generation The Who turned my world upside down when I was in school. The 2nd time during Woodstock. Best time of my life looking back almost 55 years ago. Especially because of the music and the way of life.

Awesome song all time. The greatest the who. I get the music ❤.
Absolutely agree with you! 👍🏴
Something divine here!
Saw them live four times and still can’t enough of them. This is pure rock n roll by leaps and bounds!
Does it get any better than this?
Not for this time period 😊
They were one if the few bands that I saw live.
Good times, good days. And I was only 10 years old. Only much later did I go about woodstok. The Who forever.
Uno de los mejores momentos del mejor megaconcierto de la historia del rock. Épica banda de cuatro genios.

Living in the UK in those years❤
Chills every time I hear and/or see The Who play this. It is such a timeless rock song.

THIS Track Was an Old one 😁and Included on Tommy g
Equivocado
Vi la pelucula 1970
That was pretty damn good
Legends 👌
They were the only one of the big British bands to play Woodstock. No stones no zeppelin the Beatles were not touring
Incredibimente bellissima grandissimi gli Who
Moon is only second to Bonham on the drums ... Honorable mention to Neil Peart (3rd best)

If you watch n listen around 4:02 you can hear KM hyping Townsend
"The NY Thruway is closed man!"
This is hands down the definition of real rockstars!
I was thinking the exact same thing.
I agree. I remember seeing Tommy back In 1975 or 1976.
MY ERA!!!!!!!
Daltrey was the definition of 'hot'. They all were. 💕
Well this performance made the Who, "money fell from the sky" is Pete's description of the Who's success Woodstock/ Tommy period.
I Will pay a fortune for a Time Machine to see this song at Woodstock live!
lol Got that right,
You are right
I was there. Now I'm almost 75, and have outlived a bunch of my friends. Outlived my Old Lady. Life is still good, but it's bittersweet.

Keith Moon what a drummer. What a shame he didn't stay with us longer.
He wanted to stay with us he was taking medicine to help him stop drinking. It's just back then nobody knew about addictive personality. And that's I think Keith had. He just kept taking the pills.

The light that burns twice as bright, burns twice as fast. Keith burned so very bright.
His contract was voided for his promises he ignored.
Townshend tripping and just going all out ….playing like his soul was on the line.
The harmony between Pete and Roger on those last two choruses. Just perfect.
Definitely 1 of the greatest live bands ever
Meanwhile, John Entwistle is in his 10 inches square making a wall of sound 🤩😍 RIP master 😪
And providing excellent harmony vocals too!😎
One of the best at Woodstock ...

The slight increase in the beat is amazing!🤯
