RIP Tom Smothers (February 2, 1937 - December 26, 2023), aged 86 And RIP the two members of The Who John Entwistle (October 9, 1944 - June 27, 2002), aged 57 Keith Moon (August 23, 1946 - September 7, 1978), aged 32 You will be remembered as legends.
The Who incident The performance by The Who in 1967 was another defining moment in the series. As the group often did during that period, The Who destroyed their instruments at the conclusion of their performance of "My Generation", with the usual addition of mild explosives for light pyrotechnic effect. The piece ended with guitarist Pete Townshend grabbing Tommy's guitar and smashing it. On the Smothers Brothers show that night a small amount of explosive was put into the small cannon that Keith Moon kept in his bass drum. But it did not go off during the rehearsal. Unbeknownst to Moon, a stage hand had added another explosive before the taping, and later Moon added another charge so that now there were three explosive charges in the cannon instead of one.[14] When Moon detonated it, the explosion was so intense that a piece of cymbal shrapnel cut into Moon's arm; Moon is heard moaning in pain toward the end of the piece. Townshend, who had been in front of Moon's drums at the time, had his hair singed by the blast; he is seen putting out sparks in his hair before finishing the sketch with a visibly shocked Tommy Smothers. The blast contributed heavily to Townshend's long-term hearing loss.[15]
I heard that Entwistle had light brown hair. He began dying it so Roger would stand out. He dyed his hair and beard until around 1980 or 81. Then went grey and left it.
I liked this sound better than anything else he ever had. It had deep lows and blistering, clean highs. I'm not sure how exactly he got that sound, but I've been striving for it for years. You don't need all kinds of crazy effects for good sound, just the right equipment. I feel bad about Tom Smothers' passing, too. I'm not sure how angry he was when Keith said there's sloppy stagehands, but either that struck a bad nerve, or he was putting on a great act. He seemed much more serious when going straight to the song, so I'm guessing he was upset, but as a professional, he kept it going.
@@pcallas66 I'm sure Tommy wasn't *that* upset, just caught off-guard and improvised. I think John's tone on this recording could have been his Precision Bass (possibly with a pick, after listening to it closer)? Not sure what amp he might have used.
John at 4:32 "They can't blame me if I ignore the rest of the group. Look only at me." Also, imagine having his talent & being that nonchalant over that badass bass solo. Incredible.
@@KlosekRBIsFuckingRetardedsorry, but no. It would be like stating that Vicious was the best musician outta S3x Pist0ls just because he got all the camera...
@@matiasmoulin2126 He smashed Gibsons, Fenders, Rickenbackers... not cheap guitars. The band sometimes went into debt because of the cost of replacing smashed gear.
At 5:20 you can hear Keith scream "Oww, pull it out!!!!". A piece of cymbals shrapnel was stuck in his left arm. They were lucky to get out of there with minimal damage!!
The story behind this...the band was angry they had to pre-record songs instead of playing live...so Moon and a stagehand decided it was a good idea to put 3X the explosive in the kick drum then they usually used..they didn't warn the rest of the band either...and Moon set it off right when Pete was in the line of fire...has massive hearing problems to this day
@@JaraArtist I think that ou are correct. If you watch closely the drumming is off but the vocals are not. As noted above they had to pre-record but that's better than just playing the record and lip-synching.
@@TheWorld_2099 yeah if you also look closely his voice gets more faint when the mic goes further away from his face that'd also be hard to pull off if he was lip syncing
That steady Ox bass though. Aside from the meaning of the song, I’ll always come back to this song to hear one of the best fingerpicking bassists in rock

Grant Schinto different years, man. The Beatles on Ed Sullivan, 3 years earlier, paved the way for bands like The Who... and by 1967 the Beatles were already releasing strawberry fields forever and sgt peppers
@Michael H. and everyone else who has replied to my comment so far, I said it was more INTERESTING to me. That's a totally subjective opinion. Of COURSE the Beatles paved the way for The Who and countless others. There's no reason to see my comment as any kind of detraction. I find the banter between Tommy Smothers and the band, and the smashing of their instruments and the exploding amp MORE INTERESTING than the Beatles' appearance on Ed Sullivan. Translation: you're not telling me anything I don't already know and acknowledge.
The Who in '67 (or any other year) were so good, so unique. And being on the Smothers Brothers show was such a treat. I loved that show. Everything was totally politically incorrect. Great sense of humor. They never took anything seriously.

A pure talent. Santana, just after their Summer performance at Woodstock was by far the very best concert ever. Plus Double Trouble with Stevie Ray Vaughn at a small venue in Poughkeepsie, NY smashed the house. Nobody knew who he was at the time. They opened for Edgar Winter and stayed on the stage for three encores. Pure professional. That was with WEOK-AM (now WPDH-FM) then. That's why I was there Ray...got paid to see these Who babies. Wanna know about their Hollywood Bowl gigs KLOS covered? Don't have time...maybe later. THE WHO SUCK and Townsend is a pervert. Daltry is a runt and Moon was so whacked out he couldn't keep time.

Besides Pete loss of hearing, Keith injured his arm at the end, you can tell that because roger was checking to see if he’s ok, and you can hear Keith screaming.
