Yo no soy de esa época pero la verdad the who es lo mejor de los 60's ellos estaban algo adelantados a esa época y su sonido era mucho mejor a los demás grupos eran más rudos y sobre todo mi amor Keit ❤ el mejor bateria de esos años y aunque ahora no está en esta vida seguirá siendo de los mejores...te amo Keit siempre estaré enamorada de ti 💕💋
@@garyblanchard1084 In their early years, yes, but as they got older, they realized (this, from an interview with Pete Townsend), that the instrument smashing was a bit silly, so they stopped doing that.
A friend invited me to a midnight showing of The Kids Are Alright my senior high year 1981. I instantly became a fan and promptly bought all The Who vinyl I could find.
God, what an incredibly fantastic powerhouse song!! First time hearing this, I was a Soph. in h.s. in Hempstead, NY, sick in bed with the old bakelite Regal radio on beside me..This song came on, I just flipped out!! This was their first American hit. Later I found out, also by just the jangly, clangy sound of Townshend's guitar, that it was a Rickenbacker electr. 12-string, prob. this Rose, Morris 1993 DeLuxe model..Just flipped me for a loop!! Had the pleasure of covering this, both playing rhythm on a ES335, and on my Rick 360/12 12-string while covering this and "The Kids Are All Right"!! Great memories of when I was playing professionally in Tucson Arizona!!
It's confirmed that the Ricky 12 was played by Jimmy Page. Yeah. THAT Jimmy Page! See my comment for the run-down of what is going on with this song. Tricky stuff.
I had their Live at Leeds, 8 track tape and player mounted under the dash. At 15, I installed the speakers and player myself! Still proud. Great Rock album.
My brother took me to my first concert at14...it was The Who and Lynard Skynard. That was a defining moment for me seeing the Who live. Since that day, I've been to 12 Who concerts. They're my favorite Rock and Roll band. Long Live Rock!
Actually, that's Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin fame. He was a "hired gun" on TONS of recordings done in Great Britain and Producer Shel Talmy brought him in to do the electric (Rickenbacker) 12-string. See my comment elsewhere for this video.
A MONSTER tune! I have listened to this for decades and it never gets old. For you guitar players especially: The Rickenbacker Electric 12-String is played by Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin fame using flatwound strings in standard 12-String tuning EXCEPT that the "G" strings are tuned to a regularly pitched "G" and not in octaves. My Rick 12 wouldn't sound right when trying to play the tune with the usual set-up of tuning and strings. But I figured it out. This stereo mix is my fave. Just 12-string electric guitar, bass and drums with the Ivy League doing the clapping and backing vocals. Moon's funky backbeat hi hat licks and the ride and crash cymbals are now heard whereas they were pretty much mixed out in every other mix I have heard.
@@Tonks143 That was the conventional wisdom for decades. Yes. But when Jimmy finally took credit for it back some years ago in a video interview I saw, my suspicions were confirmed
Love the early Mod sound and sharp look before the looser more general rock and the hippy style which came later. Their brief time as The High Numbers is a good listen 👍🇬🇧
No effort made to synch the audio with video here. Pete looks like a skinny goofball, Moon holds his drumsticks “wrong” and Roger looks silly in that overcoat. Entwhistle’s ears stick out funny. This is a relic from a naive era. Love it! ❤️
Pete wasn't a fan of this song, written as a pop introduction to the charts as he put it. Irrespective, we love it, an amazing 2 minutes of timeless guitar pop that will never go out of fashion. They cram more excitement into 2 mins than you would think humanly possible.
What was Keith here? 18, 19 yrs. of life. THE WHO! even tho from 🇬🇧 BRITIAN, never seemed like BRITISH INVASIONERS! with say the BEATLES, ROLLING STONES, or the ANIMALS. same goes for the KINKS! another early PUNK! BRIT band!
Around this time I had a Lambretta li 150 in metallic purple with chrome side panels and front mudguard, polished alloy horn cover and added lights and bars. Me and my mates rode through tunnels just to hear the sound we made! Basically a bunch of dickheads but we never knew it!! 😂😂😎

God, life goes by fast. I was just there at 14, loving these guys, and now I’m 70. Enjoy your youth, kids.
Amen Mr Fish, I was 15 then be 72 in less than two months.. lol
See these at The Marquee Wardour Street bout 1965.I believe they were the first loudest group I ever heard Live.especially in the quite small Marquee,
Indeed. I'll be 60 in June.
@@angelacharters199 60 ain't old.
@@petegobeckli1386
Like
The Sound of the Sixties!!
Nothing else gets anywhere near the Genius of these boys.
R.I.P Keith and John.❤
R.I.P. Keith Moon & John Entwistle 😥😥
When I first heard this song (1965), and "My Generation" I had to have them! The Who created their own genre of music.
I believe we're looking at what would eventually become punk rock right here.
I never tire of Can't Explain...
Banging sound who's listening right now in 2024 , the kids are alright aren't they back then thanks for the ace upload 💯🎸👍🎵🎶
Everything great about the music of the 60s in a tight little 2 minute package.
A bit like some of the girls ;)
Yo no soy de esa época pero la verdad the who es lo mejor de los 60's ellos estaban algo adelantados a esa época y su sonido era mucho mejor a los demás grupos eran más rudos

Certainly one of the greatest rock bands, ever.
some things are so obvious you don't need to say it
@@clubhouseme This comment was to the new generation, many who have never even heard of The Who.
Aggressive music culminating in guitar smashing and stage destruction was their hallmark.
@@garyblanchard1084 In their early years, yes, but as they got older, they realized (this, from an interview with Pete Townsend), that the instrument smashing was a bit silly, so they stopped doing that.
A two-minute time capsule from a simpler, bygone era. What a groovy vibe.
Used to see them at the Florida Rooms in Brighton by the Palace Pier, in the 60's, I was 17 - amazing times!!!
why is this still such a bop
this could come out now and still sound fresh
A friend invited me to a midnight showing of The Kids Are Alright my senior high year 1981. I instantly became a fan and promptly bought all The Who vinyl I could find.

He gets such a GREAT tone out of that Rickenbacker!
Mod sound and look was liberating. It helped create the ground swell for Sixties musical art.
I had their Live at Leeds, 8 track tape and player mounted under the dash. At 15, I installed the speakers and player myself! Still proud. Great Rock album.
I remember it being voted the best live album ever, sometime in the late 80's I think.
It's certainly up there, for sure.
Love that raw sound of the 60ies. Here they still seem kinda "innocent" so to speak.
“Front man” on the drum riser. Moon was a treasure.
All these years still a great tune
Thank you John Entwistle for thumping us into the Unseen Realm with your bass guitar in 1965, you were the original Geddy Lee !!
So ready to give a like, until you mentioned Lee
@@christinecollins6648 Geddy hating, Satan loving Christine the life hating machine !

That song is an outstanding of British pop/ rock that was also the precursor of "Progressive rock".
And punk: the Clash took the guitar riff for the Clash City Rockers.
Never realized before that Pete was using a 12 string. Fantastic early rock song

What a Great Rhythm Line!!! Saw these guys at Shea Stadium Rocktober 1980!!!

Jimmy Page didn't play on this track, he was in the studio as a session musician but they never used any of his takes.
@@Tonks143 That was the conventional wisdom for decades. Yes. But when Jimmy finally took credit for it back some years ago in a video interview I saw, my suspicions were confirmed
@@paulrickson9796 Except it doesn't sound like Page at all- and I wouldn't trust his word on it.
Timeless music. It will never get old
They all look so young. Mods, Rockers those were the days.
They were young and those were the days
Dont forget the Mockers
With 2 older brothers and sister the Who was one of many bands that were in my dna growing up in 65
Not a big Who fan but this song, man....... It's just perfect rock n' roll.
Love the early Mod sound and sharp look before the looser more general rock and the hippy style which came later. Their brief time as The High Numbers is a good listen 👍🇬🇧
My favourite band of all time. Seen them 2001 best concert ever
The who can't explain classic song from the sixties good song from them fifty years old still sounds good now good rock band
No effort made to synch the audio with video here. Pete looks like a skinny goofball, Moon holds his drumsticks “wrong” and Roger looks silly in that overcoat. Entwhistle’s ears stick out funny. This is a relic from a naive era. Love it! ❤️
Still incredibly cool. Goosebumps.
God , I love Pete's guitar.
#foulers scooter club, still rolling with the memories
....and how cool is that Rickenbacker solo?
What amazing tone Pete gets! Just great. And John's bass tone, too!
I've known this song since before I got into the Byrds but I just realised how Byrds-like the guitar is in this one. Particularly that solo.
Amazing sound
Love Moonies Ludwig super classic kit. Pre Premier deal.
The greatest band that ever played on earth
Hello from Sweden 🇸🇪
what a drum sound!!!
Perhaps the single best riff of all time. Tighter than a full tick.
Still Sounds fresh, superb track
I was oblivious to the Who in the sixties. sadly. no one loved me.
Roger must have been warm in that get up! Top tune, doesn't seem only 2 mins long
Incredibly cool after all these years.
These guys in there 20's priceless
Not even -- they were still mostly teens. Townshend was 20.
Absolutely historic!!! 😁👍
Los años 60 el comienzo de todos los grandes, the who, Beatles, rolling stones, zeppelin, floyd y tantas otras, amo los 60
You should check out the animated who song the kids are alright great video
... and at the 1:12 time-counter mark: There they are folks: *Marshall stacks* - , back when those were a _BRAND-NEW INVENTION !_
first rock song i learned to play
My father’s singing backup vocals on this, don’t get the chance very often to brag about my old man
LOVE THE WHO # 1 ROCK BAND EVER !!
Old is gold 🎸🎤👊
One of the best produced songs in the 60' s and a great template for 70' s rock with this powerful guitar riff.
Jimmy Page on guitar or Pete?
Pete, Jimmy played on the b side
Legendär!
The weekend starts here,kids!!
Wish I had the amps and instruments.
Can't explain!
Pete wasn't a fan of this song, written as a pop introduction to the charts as he put it. Irrespective, we love it, an amazing 2 minutes of timeless guitar pop that will never go out of fashion. They cram more excitement into 2 mins than you would think humanly possible.
Love Pete, but sometimes he’s wrong
The days when freedom meant something...
GOLD!
Dig the early Who. I believe this song is from December 1964. Correct me if I'm wrong
The who....great
The GREATEST rock band ever in all history ....RIGHT HERE BABY...!!!!!
SUPER ROCK BAND !
I was just six years old..!
Talkin' 'bout my g-g-g-gener-ation...
I guess I outlived the lyric, "I hope I die before I get old"...
Uma das melhores bandas dos anos 60
... e dos anos 70,80, caramba, até os dias atuais
Eles são demais
I will 'splain this song, "I Can't Explain." It's great.
The Who rocked
In 1965 one review compared The Who to The Beach Boys! A review of I can’t explain as I recall. Still like the cover by Scorpions as well.
Beach Boys WASPiest group
Pete Townsend and a Rickenbacker...sweet.
🙌🏼
Impossibly young.
the trouble with Keith is that he takes it too seriously
Haha!
Особенно бас-гитарист...
Ya killed me scooter.
Was Roger always 35?
WHOooo, reign o'er me!
Ah, that Ric!!!!
Townshend uses a Rickenbacker 1993
No Studio to put Sound in?
Amen
that's almost live.
👍
Lip sync for a tv show is not the same as a live performance. Easy to figure that out just by watching Keith hamming it up.
So much better than the lame ass stones!
Открою секрет! Металика композицию one содрала у the Who!
When some one you lost forever,forgives you.
I can't explain...
early music video
Great Kinks cover by these guys.
What was Keith here? 18, 19 yrs. of life. THE WHO! even tho from 🇬🇧 BRITIAN, never seemed like BRITISH INVASIONERS! with say the BEATLES, ROLLING STONES, or the ANIMALS. same goes for the KINKS! another early PUNK! BRIT band!
I never knew Kylo Ren was in a band!
Who is this band? That's right!
New Wave 15 years before there was a New Wave!
Just shows that music doesn’t change that much. People just like attaching labels
@@johnp515 Well, I don't think 1985 sounded much like 1975.
Roger is still short, but he has a great head of hair
Around this time I had a Lambretta li 150 in metallic purple with chrome side panels and front mudguard, polished alloy horn cover and added lights and bars. Me and my mates rode through tunnels just to hear the sound we made! Basically a bunch of dickheads but we never knew it!! 😂😂😎
