Like the Who’s song. Keith moon was a savant and a genius.. there is no substitute! Love you forever Dear Boy. See u on the other side dear Moonie! ♥️♥️♥️🌹🌹🌹🔥🔥🔥🔥
Weakest link, Townsend playing lead guitar yet he now criticizes Moon and Entwistle now that they are dead and can't defend themselves. I lost a lot of respect for Pete for doing that.
+In Your Face, Guitar ! He's my #1 rock drummer all time. A drummer joke: Q:How do you tell if the stage is level? A:Look at how the drool is coming out of his mouth.
In Your Face, Guitar ! Yeah, probably right. Watching this, though, I'd say he's performing for the approval of an audience of one, and that one just happens to be notoriously hard to please: Peter Townshend!
JOHN ENTWISTLE! In my opinion, this is HIS piece. His playing on this song was blistering, devastating, terrifying and thriling!! He was the most awesome and innovative bass player ever!!
Skip to the 3min mark. Townshend's arm is in the air (meaning he isn't playing) but you don't even notice it because of all the work John is doing, providing not only the bass but also the lead guitar role. Just stunning.
0:50 Keith attempts awesome trick, messes up, then just shrugs it off and slowly grabs another stick. I can't be the only one who finds that hilarious.
I read somewhere that this was what happened when you fed The Who a diet of raw meat and Southern Comfort. The power (and I don't mean the electricity in the wires) is just awe-inspiring.
Between late 68' to about 74' Keith Moon was simply incredible. Even the Keith Moon GOAT denialists can't "deny" how awesome he was during that time. So fluid, so fast, so dynamic, so unique and so expressive & experimental. The Who in general peaked in that period. To me they're the greatest band ever. Live Who and studio Who are two separate beasts. Both equally brilliant.
@weedian710 The real problem is why does it bother you who my favorite band and drummer are? If you only knew how many different bands I love from all eras, you'd realize it's not all about The Who. They're just my all-time favorite, and there's a very strong valid argument that they're, at the very least, one of the best live four piece rock bands ever. But again, me saying I love Keirh Moon and The Who bothered you so much that you had to actually leave that comment? Come on, bro, I think you're better than that. Cheers.
They played this song so consistently structured on Leeds, Isle of Wight, Tanglewood, etc., in 1970, but it always sounds improvised. Shows how disciplined they were even though it looked like pandemonium up there on stage. Entwistle is like off-camera thunder. This is a terrific version.
This may be the best video of The Who doing this song out there. The tone of Pete's guitar, the snap of Moon's drums and the thunder of John's bass all cut through nicely and are rounded out by Roger's vocal.
Yeah I was just leaving a comment about Townshend's guitar tone. No matter what clip I see of them live, his guitar tone is just , it's just always on.
The infamous "wall of sound" from the greatest live rock band of all time!!! I always wondered how amazing it must have been back on the hot July night in the summer of 1970 to hear the roar of The Who echoing off the mountainsides out in the Berkshires!
You have 4 people playing lead on their respective instruments at the same time, lead guitar, lead drums, lead bass and lead vocals...any other band trying to do this would sound like crap but The Who made it work and work magnifecntly
My oldest brother got live at Leeds 1970 I put it on was hooked ever since I've seen them 26 times I've still got all LPs from 70s great days and people 🇬🇧👍
This is just simply brilliant. I've loved The Who all my life. It was hearing Pete Townsend when I was 12yrs old that made me say "mum I need a guitar". She said "no, you want a guitar". I said "no I need a guitar". I eventually got my way.
Townsend had the best rythym section you could ask for!! Moon and Enthwistle were the best out there!!! This is a great bluesy and one of the hardest rock songs they did
Moons drumming was like his personality- frenetic and tike a multi personality/ split personality psychotic it was like 2 or three people were playing out of the same body - insane lol
I used to LOVE playing this track with Who's Who!!... as a bass player, getting to play John's bass lines every weekend in front of Who fans (and earning their approval) was not only challenging but an honour, and so much freakin' fun!!!
+Bob Bennert Yeah he was. What a rhythm section with him and Moony! It's like he's off kind of just doing his own thing, while Townshend and Moon are doing their theatrics, grabbing attention while Daltry as lead singer is in the spotlight. Great band, and I love how they did this song.
Probably the best -- from what Pete has to say about him. Because John could play the traditional bass parts and add lead guitar parts at the same time, Pete claimed he was only pretending to be the lead guitar player. Can't get a better compliment than that. :) I've been listening to the most recently mastered tapes on a high quality player, and all the bass work (as well as everything else) comes through clear and sharp. AWESOME!
Do I need to state The Obvious ?? of course not to the people commenting below, as they obviously do know.... The Who are .... the Greatest Rock Band ever.... thanks for letting me state The Obvious !!
The early Who live were like none other. More like a sonic explosion , and just incredible how Entwistle played lead bass guitar in a sense. I could say John was the best guitarist in the Who.
when this album was released (good description for it) I would cycle 5 miles to my brother's house, sit with the earphones on crank it up and sit back in awe, I was 10.
I love how you can tell Pete's guitar has the volume about half way then just cranks it and takes off like a car on the drag strip.. they played so fucking loud
Saw The Who 9 times over the years, and around 2012 (?) took my son to see them. He was raised on the likes of Green Day and Red Hot Chili Peppers and after the concert he said "okay, they ARE the greatest rock band ever."
Actually most of his studio drumming included and often heavily implored high hat drumming. He just didn’t use them when they toured, so their live act would be a bit more chaotic. It’s an interesting contrast hearing The Who play a song on an album, and then the same song live.
Yeah, I remember Entwistle said the rest of the band could never hear the hi-hat on stage, so he ditched it for a pair of 20 inch ride cymbals... He did reintroduce a hi-hat later in the '70s, by the time onstage monitoring had improved, but even then he rarely used it. I think the clip of them doing Bell Boy at Charlton is about the only footage I've seen of him using a hi-hat live in the '70s.

Keith Moon is the GOAT drummer!

No hi-hats
Moon is so unique and so freaking dynamic - a run away freight train
The Stones, Zep, Floyd were all great bands live. The Who was the most dynamic and exciting. IMHO
The MOST Awesome band ever; best albums...best lead guitar...best drumming...best bassist...best live show...angrier...craziest; THE WHO BABY...!!!
Four leads artists... vocal, guitar, bass, drummer...all playing lead.
Nothing ever ever like it.
Yet each knowing just when to back off to support each other and the song. That’s how the great bands work.
Weakest link, Townsend playing lead guitar yet he now criticizes Moon and Entwistle now that they are dead and can't defend themselves. I lost a lot of respect for Pete for doing that.
@@jeffwisener1378 nah
There was no better... crank it!
Keith Moon...the greatest, coolest and funniest drummer in the universe.

Richie B Pete just wanted him to play a straight groove, no fills, rolls, anything. Thank Christ Keith ignored him!
He ~IS~ The "Best Keith Moon Type Drummer" Ever!
David D.
This makes more sense for this day and age.
JOHN ENTWISTLE! In my opinion, this is HIS piece. His playing on this song was blistering, devastating, terrifying and thriling!! He was the most awesome and innovative bass player ever!!

no doubt about john, almost like they hid hjm in this concert
Watch Townshend's left hand, he's maintaining that huge sustain from the fret board.
Check out a live version of Dreaming From The Waist too... Entwistle is fucking amazing on it.
John was one of the greatest bass players ever!
Outstanding bass playing John badass
The "Ox". truly badass indeed...
0:50 Keith attempts awesome trick, messes up, then just shrugs it off and slowly grabs another stick. I can't be the only one who finds that hilarious.
It's fucking fantastic LOL
+Tate Gibbs I loved it. He used to make it work regularly but, once in a while, the stick would get away. LOL
it's brilliant
Portnoy copy this
Oh, man. Idolized the guy as a youngster. Was just as important to getting me into music as Lennon and McCartney.
Holy shit, when these guys were rolling like this they were something to behold !!
John Entwistle never gets enough credit... Awesome bassist!
Greatest live rock band of all time at the peak of their powers!!
+nyterpfan Yep...
When it comes to live bands there's The Allman Brothers and then everybody else. No gimmicks, no bullshit. Just music. And they did it the best.
I'd put Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac against the Allmans before Duane died. The Who deserve to be in the mix too.
nyterpfan you got that right
I read somewhere that this was what happened when you fed The Who a diet of raw meat and Southern Comfort. The power (and I don't mean the electricity in the wires) is just awe-inspiring.

Man get off that trip, “Kieth Moon GOAT Denialists”? That is pure comedy gold. Do you run some kind of Kieth Moon Church?

@@Kimberlytheresam I totally agree!!!!
Importantly Keith was also a monster force, early on in the High Numbers
When Pete wears the jump suit he means business.
Jesus Entwhistle sounds like a one man Apocalypse. The whole concert is one of the best I’ve seen of The Who. Epic.
The best live rock band ever. Bar none.
nellie360 1000%
They have nothing on thin Lizzy
Thin Lizzy? Really Alan? Put down the pipe!

Keith didn't just play the drums. He was the drums
Moon is ALIVE 😉💞
Keith didn't play the drums, the drums played him
The drums are so scared of Keith, they are spitting sticks at him - 0:51
Yes!
This just proves "WHO" is the Greatest Rock Band of All Time .....?
This is what made me want to be a musician and guitar player
Hey cameraman, there's this really good bass player stage left, smh
John just stood there playing his ass off. He didn't jump around, he just played.
Yes you are right the basman is amazing !
John always preferred to stand in the dark by himself.
It may have been Entwhistle’s preference but that’s no reason for the director to ignore him.
@@danalogue that's the dumbest fookin reply I"ve ever seen.

Like a damn train going a hundred miles an hour. Long Live Rock and Long Live The Who!
Yup, and also add a Cat 6 Hurricane, 300 mph tornado, & a 9.0 earthquake w/ a 200 ft tsunami comi'n straight at ya all @ once....

Seriously.. WTF....i wish i could go back in time .im 5 min from Lenox
The wall of sound was a fuel Spector sound
Phil Spector created the wall sound
Phil Spector created the wall of sound he is in jail now

Yes!!
Such control by Townsend is phenomenal.
So much raw energy and power!!! Long live the WHO!
That electricity between Keith and Pete is crazyyyyy , incredible

I grew up loving these guys but never knew how goddamn good they were live
They were a different animal on stage vs their studio recordings.
Agree...they were F&%$#@ amazingly great in their prime (like here)
An incredible, brilliant performance! This is the pinnacle of rock at it's finest. RIP to composer Mose Allison, who just passed away.
The interplay between John and Keith is deadly. Peak period 69 - 71. John's tone through those Hiwatts is godly.
Moonie would have been 72 today-Rolling Stone said it best-Keith Moon-he died before he got old.R.I.P. Moonie and John.
I was there!Saw them twice at Tanglewood. What great memories. Keith is hysterical and John made my jaw drop with his playing. Miss them!!
Powerful rock n roll - don't get no better it don't.
Moon is the star of the show!!!
Mose Allison has left us aged 89... R.I.P.
EnosEverything r
EnosEverything Oh shit, I didn't know he'd died...
unbeatable highlight of rock history
Has anyone ever had more fun being on stage than Keith Moon?
Through genius, becomes effortless 😮
Townsend had the best rythym section you could ask for!! Moon and Enthwistle were the best out there!!! This is a great bluesy and one of the hardest rock songs they did
In many ways, Townsend WAS the rhythm section. He often held down the rhythm, while Entwistle and Moon soloed like demons possessed.
They turned a soft jazz piano piece to a hard rock banger
Moons drumming was like his personality- frenetic and tike a multi personality/ split personality psychotic it was like 2 or three people were playing out of the same body - insane lol
I used to LOVE playing this track with Who's Who!!... as a bass player, getting to play John's bass lines every weekend in front of Who fans (and earning their approval) was not only challenging but an honour, and so much freakin' fun!!!
john entwistle. i dont know anything about playing bass but i know he is one of the best.
+Bob Bennert Yeah he was. What a rhythm section with him and Moony! It's like he's off kind of just doing his own thing, while Townshend and Moon are doing their theatrics, grabbing attention while Daltry as lead singer is in the spotlight.

He is a terrific bass player
At the time , a few bands might have been louder , but no one was more powerful . IMHO. ( I saw them 12 times with Keith Moon 1967/ 75).
Heaviest version ive heard live! Beats out leeds, hull, and coliseum. And all three of them were incredible! Love the who!
Hi hat we don't need no stinking hi hat we is Keith Moon.
Agreed on Entwistle... but you know, : The Who - unstoppable !!!
This is fucking incredible.
That's cool that is the best greatest rock ever my life number one band in the world 💗
You should check out the Isle of Wight version of this song it is blistering
IT STILL GIVES ME A STIFFY
The who fkn rocked hard
Fucking OUTSTANDING...!!!
PURE ENERGY!@
These guys are a machine!
Great stuff back in 70!...
Great stuff now
thats one hell ova rhythm section, baby!
Singer, Bass, Guitar and BOMB!...
Fantastic....incredible....unimaginable....inimitable
Who in 1969/70 Tommy tour were incomparable!!!
I love watching this band LIVE in it's prime, incredible!!!
Do I need to state The Obvious ?? of course not to the people commenting below, as they obviously do know.... The Who are .... the Greatest Rock Band ever.... thanks for letting me state The Obvious !!
Brilliant The WHO 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
The energy and poise of these guys is amazing. Keith's agression is something nothing like anyone else.
The early Who live were like none other. More like a sonic explosion , and just incredible how Entwistle played lead bass guitar in a sense. I could say John was the best guitarist in the Who.
Oh God... I miss those days...
Most powerful live rock band ever!!!!!!!!
Pete Townshend is a genius:-)
Listening to these legends never gets old. RIP to one of the greatest rhythm sections ever assembled
John Entwistle's fingers could have their own youtube channel.
Not that you’d know from this vidy
Just read Roger Daltrey's autobiography, highly recommend it, some interesting insights into the band. And I now like them even more so ...
This is some serious business!
I got The Who album that has this song, and although I'm not a huge fan of blues, I love this song. It has so much energy.
This is dynamite 🧨! Live at Leeds was the first album I ever bought (I think it was like $3) as a kid
Godfathers of punk.
The Who Live.... awesome power trio with an incredible singer..
Неповторимая банда!!!!! СИЛА, мощь и виртуозность. Чистый кайф! Красавчики!
when this album was released (good description for it) I would cycle 5 miles to my brother's house, sit with the earphones on crank it up and sit back in awe, I was 10.
RIP Mose Allison
great version of the song. I could just watch rock's greatest drummer by himself during the whole video. Keith and Pete 2 as 1.Thank you.
BRUTAL
I love how it goes straight thrash metal for three seconds at 1:36 before going back to the rock beat.
Wow! I saw them perform in Memphis shortly before this. Still sounds great.
Brilliant
I love how you can tell Pete's guitar has the volume about half way then just cranks it and takes off like a car on the drag strip.. they played so fucking loud
Best live song I've ever witnessed..four unbelievably talented guys ..
The best band ever.. explosive as hell
Saw The Who 9 times over the years, and around 2012 (?) took my son to see them. He was raised on the likes of Green Day and Red Hot Chili Peppers and after the concert he said "okay, they ARE the greatest rock band ever."
the greatest power trio of all time. guitar, bass, drums. perfect
Except it's a four piece
INCREDIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!~~~~~~~~~~
just noticed that Keith uses no high hat. this accounts for his unique cymbal sound heard on numerous recordings
Martin Ferreira he uses 2 cymbals to control tempo and foot work .. not hit hat like each drummer .. Keith is unique.
Actually most of his studio drumming included and often heavily implored high hat drumming. He just didn’t use them when they toured, so their live act would be a bit more chaotic. It’s an interesting contrast hearing The Who play a song on an album, and then the same song live.

I think the clip of them doing Bell Boy at Charlton is about the only footage I've seen of him using a hi-hat live in the '70s.
Yup...such a unique approach w/out the HH...we can all learn about serious R&R drumming from this uncomparable example...
Freaking rock machine!!!
Man i wish that in these videos they could focus on Entwhisle for a bit. The best bass player ever
Keith's drumstick at 0:44 LOL!! Only Keith!
Roger Daltrey still going strong on stage(,broke his back falling off stage many years ago and never realised it) 🙂 one of rock legend true stories🤘
Another excellent version of Young Man Blues. Townshend, Daltrey, Entwistle & Moon are on fire.
