      Reverse gated reverb... It became even bigger later on into the 80's... This was an early use. But other than that the drum recording is very straightforward... Kenny Jones is a Rock solid drummer and he knows how to tune his kit.

    • @gloverelaxis
      @gloverelaxis Год назад

      @@garthkolbeck8674 ohhhh it's a REVERSE sound! thanks, I was wondering how they get that gradual decay and then gradual attack (like a gap with the air being sucked out and then returning) before the full body of the signal returns - of course it's just reversed halfway through! I was thinking maybe it was an array of parallel reverbs tuned with with different predelays, or maybe some weird sidechain compression trick. it sounds so, so fucking good for this kind of aesthetic. i normally hate the '80s gated verbs on drums with a passion but when the song has enough space (like it does here) so that it doesn't become cluttered and mushy, and it's done tastefully, it can sound so good.

    I remember seeing them in concert early on after this song came out. The hall was totally dark and for about 5 minutes the stacatto punches from the organ was all you heard. Then a light started pulsing out of the stage in perfect synchronicity with the organ. The whole thing went on about 10 minutes and I was absolutely hypnotized. It was really a climactic part when the singing started. Great night.

    We all learned to crawl before we walked. The WHO entered Woodstock era and opened the ears of everyone. This is their exclamation mark to bid fare well to their fans. Roger Daltrey took a backup and played the organ on this to the great, underrated Pete Townsend. Thank you 'The Who' for 60 years of music. Remember 'quadrophenia' and 'tommy'. The Lewis and Clark of rock and roll.

    *Who Facts*
    I can tell that this is the original recording of the song, because of the slight mess up on the lyric timing at around 2:38. As Roger accidentally says "It's an eminence front" instead of starting along with Pete saying "Behind an eminence front". The album (It's Hard) was re-released in 1997, while the original being released in 1982. The re-release featured a new mix of Eminence Front, fixing the mistaken lyric part, with the re-release featuring a few live bonus tracks.
