+Mike Benoit ...exactly what i was thinking. Summer of '65...rock'n'roll was growing up and aquiring a psychedelic edge...Beatles "Ticket to Ride" had just come out...THAT was a jump for Beatles in terms of sonic texture...Stones "Satisfaction" with that fuzzbox riff. But yes...Townshend "abusing" his rickenbacker like that getting squealing feedback and messing with the pickup switch to get the sound to "judder". It's wonderful sonic mayhem channeling spirit from the other side
Youll notice that during the noise-Fest guitar bit , the camera is suspiciously not on Pete ?! sorry , but i think they were Miming , to pre-recorded Music
It was so good back then 1965 video the who is just so good to listen to and just perfectly masterpiece I love the music I just listen and sing along and it makes me feel all good❤❤❤❤❤😅😅😅😅
The Who are criminally underrated. Nobody was playing like this in 1965. Pete Townshend started the feedback, psychedelic guitar style that Hendrix always gets credited for, imo.
Beck at the about the same was using more continuous feedback in London..Clapton played with it too..same time frame. The trick that makes this unique is the toggle switch between the pickups on the Rickenbacker..Townsend flips it to make that on/off sound.
@@mellotronage7073 I lived it, saw the performers you read about, including Yardbirds in 1966. Jeff Beck and Clapton then Jimi is the feedback hierarchy, but only weeks apart, things progressed quickly in 1965-6
Man, the middle part of this song is REALLY FUCKED UP! It's almost like they did that on purpose to confound all the teenyboppers at the sockhop into thinking they were dancing to another cute pop song when the band decided to add some chaos to the mix! Now THAT'S what I call "Punk Rock"!
One of the most important songs in this legendary band's catalog. This tune, especially this live version, is the true origin of THE WHO. Biting vocals, feedback, rumbling bass and off the wall, yet outstanding drumming. Five years later they would be assaulting people's eardrums(in the best way possible) with Live at Leeds. Just an amazing and groundbreaking evolution.
Never has a band had 3(!) separate players play SO AGGRESSIVELY at the same time and just kick SO MUCH FUCKIN' ASS-WOW!!! The middle part is FUCKING INSANE. I can't imagine what those people must of thought at that time (1965)...beyond the beyond.
@@golden.lights.twinkle2329 it’s very different to the original single which I often play. I don’t know if this version was ever released on later compilation type records, but I suppose it’s possible.
Amazing how Keith Moon even without necessarily doing his flashiest work propels the song with equal parts of ferocity and control. Even when he's just laying down the beat he was an exciting and interesting drummer.
Nobody, Nobody was doing anything remotely like this at the time. No one drummed like that and Townsend using and controlling Feed back set him apart from other guitar players.
The Who on stage was always the best representation of the band. That was their sound and that was the best way to experience them. I wish I got to see them with Keith Moon. I got to see them with Kenny Jones, who was good and solid, but it wasn't the same.
53 years old and sounds like it was recorded 10 minutes ago. Amazing. Astounding. But yet another top-notch 60s band who let their standards drop in the following decade.
@@johna8973 I don't agree. Ready Steady Go was one of the few shows that had live music and if you look at the video closely you will see they are not miming. Put it another way, if they are miming it's the best bloody miming I've even seen as it's note perfect for all four.
This is extremely hard-rocking for 1965. Compare what the other of the "big three" were doing then. The Beatles released Help! and the Stones released Now!, great albums, but not hard rocking at all, really. I had to check the date of this video right after starting it, just to be sure it was in 1965. The combination of Townshend's powerful sound (he actually asked Jim Marshall to create a louder amp for him in the early sixties, leading to the JTM45), Daltrey's rarely subtle, but raucous vocals, and the crashing drumming from Moon, The Who was a "perfect storm" of early hard rock.
I got into The Who when this record came out. We went to see them at Pete Stringfellows Mojo Club in Sheffield. Imagine the effect this had on the dancing audience inside a fairly small club. Straight away we noticed Keith's wild and brilliant drumming, Pete's windmilling arm, just enough headroom to do it, John stood motionless at the back, playing bass from another planet. and Roger's great vocals. The other act that night was Geno Washington and the Ram Jam Band, and while they were on stage, The Who came and watched them from next to us on the floor. Roger was right next to me. I can't compare entrance fees with todays values, but it would have cost peanuts to get in in '65, maybe 10 bob ( half a £) for an act like that.
@@MrDaveyboy125 Nope. Just the historic truth. As to Bianchet fam's assertion that 1965 and the Who heralded 'the birth of British Rock, Heavy Metal and Punk' - well it could be argued that 1964 and 'You Really Got Me' by the Kinks had already ticked all those boxes.
@@YorkyOne The greatest bands ever were the Stones followed by the Who. The Beatles belong in the sixties - The Stones have been going since the sixties.
I'm 52.....and I often STILL feel(and do) like Jimmy in front of his TV(watching this clip) with his wet jeans on......I STILL "get" rock n' roll, always have.....and MUCH younger people, kids, no longer do....and I find that more than a little tragic.
I've come criminally late to the Who's music but boy! Am I glad I've arrived! What an amazing, beautiful, powerful sound! Their music ignites a deep passion in me!
Looks like the inspiration for "Blair Witch Project" - strictly the camera itself that is. This isn't so bad as BWP it's just the right amount of camera dismounted. Considering a person could get crushed at a Who Concert.
¡¡¡¡This is the REAL SHIT!!!! A kinda shit that keeps surprising me even after 30yrs of my 1st hearing it. The nastiest, hardest, noisiest, most distorted, heaviest, SHIT ever recorded. Half a century before Nirvana; decades before Sonic Youth; 5 years before Sabbath, Zeppelin, Funkadelic, or King Crimson; 2 years before Hendrix, or Velvet Underground;..... NOTHING, absolutely nothing, in the whole history of Rock CAN COMPARE TO THIS FUCKING SONIC MAYHEM deviced by The Who.
Always baffled me when I watch this, as to why-during the guitar 'solo', the director focuses almost solely on Keith's, albeit incredible drumming. Especially when you hear the most immaculate violence being ripped out of the guitar by Townshend. But then, isn't everyone's life a litany of lost opportunity!!....Respect due from this Old Goth....This footage is absolutely top drawer!!!
The camera work is brilliant in the feedback section, so creative . And Keith was always the focus of the band in those days. I think the director called it right!
I think they were scared of Pete's bouts of equipment destruction and the complaints there would be if he smashed the Rickenbacker on live TV! They probably promised not to smash anything, but the Who were as unpredictable as they came in those days!
Christ my mobile jumped out of my hand half way through this with the feedback ... lived the mod movement 2nd time around 79 n into the 80s .. this track was an anthem
Pete's great but it's actually Keith and John really blowing it up IMO. John is playing fast bass riffs like Cream and heavy rock were doing years later and Keith is playing like no one before or since.
I can go anyway, way I choose I can live anyhow, win or lose I can go anywhere, for something new Anyway, anyhow, anywhere I choose I can do anything, right or wrong I can talk anyhow, and get along Don't care anyway, I never lose Anyway, anyhow, anywhere I choose Nothing gets in my way Not even locked doors Don't follow the lines That been laid before I get along anyway I dare Anyway, anyhow, anywhere Anyway I choose, yeah Anyway I wanna go, I wanna go 'n do it myself, Do it myself, yeah Anyway, way I choose Ain't never gonna lose the way I choose
It's the lyrics which make this single stand out in history. Pete was plagiarising the Kinks 'You Really Got Me' here, (he says so himself!) but his voicing of teenage confidence and swagger is what makes it memorable.
On this day in 1965 {December 9th} a video of The Who's "Anyhow, Anyway, Anywhere" was aired on the ABC-TV week-day evening program, 'Shindig', this episode of 'Shindig' was taped in London, England... Six months earlier on June 27th, 1965 "Anyhow, Anyway, Anywhere" peaked at #10 {for 1 week} on the United Kingdom's Single chart... Between 1965 and 2012 the Who had thirty-three records on the U.K. Singles chart, thirteen made the Top 10 with their two biggest hits both peaking at #2, "My Generation" for 2 weeks in 1965 and "I'm a Boy" for 1 week in 1966... Sadly, two of the four original members have passed away, Keith Moon {1946 - 1978} and John Entwistle {1944 - 2002}... May they both R.I.P. And from the 'For What It's Worth' department, the U.K. Top 10 Singles on June 27th, 1965: At #1. "Crying In The Chapel" by Elvis Presley #2. "I'm Alive" by The Hollies #3.

1979 Cincinnati heard about that the band did sing great A Legendary Historical Legendary Classic Music Concert Production performance ❤️🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶😊😊😊❤️😊🎵🎵The Who Forever ❤️❤️
An inspirational piece of work, first seen by me in the mid-'80's when I was fourteen - it had a big influence on me, enriching my musical thoughts from then on. The way Townsend used his guitar controls to create those biting, jabbing yet rhythmic chords is fantastic.
Could this be the earliest known example of raking the pick down a guitar string? Pete wasn't a shredder but he had such a cool sound all his own, I know Pete's playing without seeing him,
@@jonnybirchyboy1560 I can agree with that but the pure power, volume, feedback and of course the message in the lyrics makes this kinda more punk. You Really Got Me and All Day And All Of The Night were more edgy love songs.
Hard to believe this was the (almost) same band I saw live in 1989 in a giant outdoor stadium with about 50k people screaming behind me and Pete right in front of me blowing out my eardrums. Good times, great band.
Love this version alot more coz of the rawness than the version on cd,s with the piano added , i first watched this on ready steady go in early 80,s n loved it since then love the who songs , i wont listen to songs without keith on his drum kit
controlled mania..how powerful is this..Mooney beatin the skins off, Townsend torturing the strings and amps, Daltrey effortless growling and Entwistle's fingers like a magician...in fact it IS fkin MAGIC.
Notice that the camera never focuses on Townsend during the guitar interlude. He must have not wanted his competitors to see how he produced such noises. He considered them proprietary, or whatever. Ian MacDonald wrote in Revolution in the Head that the Beatles "assiduously vetted the competition." Townsend must have known they would suss out Who concerts. Another reviewer counts Quadrophenia as their best recording. I vote a tie between Sell Out and Tommy.
A frenetic ball of energy unlike any other band at that point. Important this is these guys could play! It always amazes me that the older generation who were in their 70s and 80s back then- the grans and grandads- were Victorians! They were born in the 1880s 90s and 1900s before cinema, radio, tv automobiles and manned flight. They fought in the First World War. They experienced the greatest period of innovation the world had ever undergone. The music and dress of their grandkids must've seemed totally alien!
Love the 60’s special effects :D “Okay Bob, just zoom in and out really fast and throw the camera about a lot” “Won’t that just look really funny and a bit ‘awww’ in 60yrs time?” “Look, CGI hasn’t been invented yet so we gotta make do”
Lmao! But tbf this was creative directing at the time. Most music clips were dull as dishwater then, complete with twee set decorations. Ready Steady Go was about the first music tv show to channel the youth culture.
I was interested in seeing how Pete would create that early feedback live, but the cameras did not show Pete. But we heard it. And Keith Moon was too fast for the mid 1960's cameras. A great song, shocking early use of feedback. I heard an executive at a radio station thought the record was defective when hearing it, so did not play it on the radio at that time.
Townshend probably completely blew that audience's mind with that guitar solo. No one was playing like that back then, and with that much volume.

Hard to believe this was the (almost) same band I saw live in 1989 in a giant outdoor stadium with about 50k people screaming behind me and Pete right in front of me blowing out my eardrums. Good times, great band.
Un des meilleurs titres des who...s'ils n'y avaient pas ajouté une cacophonie en plein milieu dans le morceau...
Love this version alot more coz of the rawness than the version on cd,s with the piano added , i first watched this on ready steady go in early 80,s n loved it since then love the who songs , i wont listen to songs without keith on his drum kit
Good example of why Keith Moon was one of the greatest rock drummers ever.
Watching this while wearing my sopping wet Levi's
Care to explain the reference? I don't get it :S
"Quadrophenia" !! :-)
Yes....
Richi Rich Quadrophenia
“If you turn that up any louder you’ll go deaf” 😂😂
I swear to god it sometimes appears that Keith Moon is drumming with yardsticks lol
greatest rock song ever made
That'll make you deaf, y'know!
Bunch o louts.
Especially if the drummer happens to slip explosives into his bass drum! (Cf. "My Generation" live 1967 on "Smothers Brothers")

I can't recall which Rolling Stone writer calls this solo "gloriously disorienting," but he nailed it.
The BEST. There's no way you can argue that.
Power & volume!!⚡️⚡️
Legendary
controlled mania..how powerful is this..Mooney beatin the skins off, Townsend torturing the strings and amps, Daltrey effortless growling and Entwistle's fingers like a magician...in fact it IS fkin MAGIC.
Notice that the camera never focuses on Townsend during the guitar interlude. He must have not wanted his competitors to see how he produced such noises. He considered them proprietary, or whatever.
Ian MacDonald wrote in Revolution in the Head that the Beatles "assiduously vetted the competition." Townsend must have known they would suss out Who concerts.
Another reviewer counts Quadrophenia as their best recording. I vote a tie between Sell Out and Tommy.
The Who for ever
I’ve only been looking forever and yours is the only clean video on site!
Thank you
A frenetic ball of energy unlike any other band at that point. Important this is these guys could play! It always amazes me that the older generation who were in their 70s and 80s back then- the grans and grandads- were Victorians! They were born in the 1880s 90s and 1900s before cinema, radio, tv automobiles and manned flight. They fought in the First World War. They experienced the greatest period of innovation the world had ever undergone. The music and dress of their grandkids must've seemed totally alien!
Hannah Smith (the oldest person alive then) was born in 1856 and was consequently 109.
Simply perfect
Love the 60’s special effects :D
“Okay Bob, just zoom in and out really fast and throw the camera about a lot”
“Won’t that just look really funny and a bit ‘awww’ in 60yrs time?”
“Look, CGI hasn’t been invented yet so we gotta make do”
Lmao! But tbf this was creative directing at the time. Most music clips were dull as dishwater then, complete with twee set decorations. Ready Steady Go was about the first music tv show to channel the youth culture.
The who any way any how anywhere classic song from the sixties
Hardest sounding 12 string guitar ever!
van wray it was played on I Can’t Explain too.
Iconic
Legends no more said
great guitar solo 1:03-1:59
I was interested in seeing how Pete would create that early feedback live, but the cameras did not show Pete. But we heard it. And Keith Moon was too fast for the mid 1960's cameras. A great song, shocking early use of feedback. I heard an executive at a radio station thought the record was defective when hearing it, so did not play it on the radio at that time.
Just the greatest band ever. x
Pete is playing a Rickenbacker 360/12 into a Fender half stack, not sure what model.
So many signs of what they would become. But they were already there. The world had to catch up to them.
