I´m a rock drummer for over 35 years but what the hell "Moon the Loon" played on drums? What a phenomenal creativity and impecable timing... R.i.P. Keith, one of the greatest Rock´n´roll drummer the mankind ever seen...
I saw an interview with Keith Moon...he said, he was a drum artist...his sticks were his paint brushes...he painted his kit... He said he never played a song the same...he was always painting the kit...
This band was in the early seventies like a avalanche. I`ve seen them 72, 74, 75 and all gigs have been outstanding,Keith Moon, John Entwistle, never will forget these guys...UK Rock pure at all !
i love the who, a lot of people say that keith moon's drumming was like banging on dust bins but i absolutely adore him and his drumming and i don't care what people say. roger is a great singer, i love it when he swings the mike. pete is an outstanding songwriter(this is my favourite song) and john, well what can i say, he's one of the best bassists i have ever seen. this is just the best. Rest in peace my dearest keith and john
This performance showcases Moons abilities on the drums man. So much different from the album version, I listen to this over the album version everytime.
@@ferdiaroalbert989 Well i think bonham or baker are better than chad smith, John Paul Jones is better (for me at least) than flea but in honesty, flea is a MUCH better showman and Page and Hendrix are way better than Frusciante
Moon was the greatest drummer ever & Entwistle greatest bassist ever. RIP. The Who has been my favorite band since I was a little girl, thank god my mother has great taste in music.
John's sound on this one is incredible! It sounds like a brass orchestra. Pete kept his guitar very clean, and let the drums and the bass add the drive.
Dutch Icefinder listen to him singing I want it all at the Freddie Mercury tribute, it's simply UNBEATABLE! Roger Daltrey have stage presence! Not only voice, but power on the stage
Sorry I don t agree. The Who only "Tommy is a great album, but everything else sucks quite frankly. Daltrey's voice is not very powerful on stage. You think he was a better rock singer than Freddy Mercury or let s say a Noddy Holder? Give me a break.
if were talking member to member talent its plausible greatest drummer? greatest bass player? one of the best lead guitarists? top 30 easy and yes id agree roger is the weak link not to say he isnt good another band that tick a lot of boxes were rod and the faces
Its mad to think that one band can have all four legends in, Keith Moon greatest drummer ever, Peter Townsend one of the best guitarist in the world, Roger Doltery best singer ever and the ox the best bassist to live. No question about it.
Saw them five times in the eighties, (post- Moon unfortunately-although Kenny Jones is definitely no slouch either). But Daltrey was just a freaking amazing vocalist. Hit every note perfect, just like on all the classic records...and jogging in place at the mic for the whole show, like two hours.
December 20 1970 at the Round House Chalk Farm London Elton John America The Who It was a Sunday afternoon and evening I was 15 years old. Wonderful in every way exciting!
I was there too...as a young hippie girl who came in from Spain just for this concert....no money no tickets but we had lots of love.....rock on kids....never sell out...
Here's a band that gave it everything they had. One of those acts where you had to be there to really get it. Unfortunately, I never had the pleasure. And now we watch them on clips, but can still imagine the excitement of those times. Thanks for the upload!
The amazing Bass that resounds after Pete Townsend's intro. On the Album I believe it's French horns. But John Entwistle playing it on his Bass guitar is so superior.
Oh yeah - I was there - just about! I think more dope was smoked there than at Woodstock. Anyone remember the burger van that burned down? We were just standing watching it :-~
Das waren alles noch Bands, die auch was konnten!!!! Wenn ich mir die traurige Landschaft von heute so ansehe, da sind die Stones die einzigen, die man von der Bühne tragen wird und die auch noch die Beste Live.Act Band aller Zeiten ist und auch für sehr, sehr lange Zeit bleiben wir! Man wird sich ihrer Gedenken wie heute die Menschen an Mozart!!!!!!!!
Es gibt immer noch verdammt gute Bands die Live besser sind als auf jeder CD, das Problem ist nur, dass die breite Masse heute eher auf diese POP-Plastikmusik abfährt...
Ich finde, dass diese Aussage zu verallgemeinernd und engstirnig ist. Bei dem riesigen Angebot an Bands verschiedenster Musikrichtungen ist es unmöglich alles zu kennen und gesehen zu haben. Wenn ich die Perfomance auf diesem Video mit einigen Bands vergleiche die ich gerne höre, da finde ich diese Performance von The Who wesentlich schlechter unabhängig davon, ob es mein Genre ist oder nicht.
Da habt Ihr beide Recht! Und ich bin auch nicht zu engstirnig, und es gibt auch heute noch gute Bands, bin ich vollkommen mit einverstanden! Ich hatte auch gemeint was meine Überzeugung ist ich aber nicht geschrieben hatte, aus welchen Gründen sich die Music auch immer her gebildet haben mag, die Hip Hop-Generation und den Ganzen Plastik-Müll, wo jeder "Depp" in ein Studio gehen kann und irgend einen Scheiß aufnehmen kann und es wird dann in der Werbung so hoch gepuscht, das die ganzen Kids, meinen darauf abfahren zu müssen ohne zu wissen was wirklich gute Musik ist! Und vor allem was das für ein langer Prozess es ist solche Musik abliefern zu können! Gruß Stf. A.

Tut mir Leid, dass ich dich für so engstirnig gehalten habe. Es stimmt was du sagst, dadurch, dass die Technik so krass weit fortgeschritten ist, kann man (fast) jede Stimme so hinbiegen, dass sie sich nach einer guten Gesangsstimme klingt. Noch ein paar Computer-Sounds hinzufügen und schon ist der nächste Pop-Song kreiert. Dabei geht gerne mal verloren, was Musik eigentlich mal war und immer noch ist.
Keith was a troubled soul , amazing drummer , my favourite! Watching him perform live on video is amazing!! I like Led Zepp etc but no comparison in MY eyes , Moon is the man! |Why does everone have to slag someone else off to prove there favourite is the best??
Great bands look back a little to the influences of eras that came before. Henry Purcel, Baroque composer was influential to some of the ways of this great band.
Keith Moon was one the worlds most entertaining drummers, very similar to Gene Krupa. Considering he was self taught and never practised much he was incredible. What a life he lived. RIP Keith.

You lucky bastard! Would love to have been that close to em
Wow!!!!!!
How very cool!!!
How close were you to Kieth Moon?

I´m a rock drummer for over 35 years but what the hell "Moon the Loon" played on drums?
What a phenomenal creativity and impecable timing...
R.i.P. Keith, one of the greatest Rock´n´roll drummer the mankind ever seen...
@@pentatonicpaddy lmao ok bro w the shitty guitar playing and receding hairline
I saw an interview with Keith Moon...he said, he was a drum artist...his sticks were his paint brushes...he painted his kit...
He said he never played a song the same...he was always painting the kit...
It's breath taking to watch Keith play, what an artist!
He played weird hand grip
Keith Moon's standard "beats" are what most people call "drum fills" haha. One of the (if not the) best drummer of all time.
Keith always looks like he is having the best time! Such a pleasure to watch and hear him!
You gotta love The Who. There really aren't many bands better. Utterly superb.
Four of the greatest men who ever stood on a stage.
The band every other band wish they could be.
I exclude Roger - he was a strategic pick to be a poster boy/the eye candy. The real talent and brains come from the other 3
Man, I still gaze in awe at this song and listen in wonder. Moon was truly a magician and loved drumming. Poor dude. The Who will live forever.
One of the best acts ever ,what a group they were
There is nobody in the present like this. Just listen to the harmony and playing / musicianship by everyone in this band. No comparison.
Have you heard the drums in this song? He is one of the best drum players i've ever heard! You Go Kieth Moon!
I played this live once...the most epic experience of my life..such a truly incredible song...shivers up my spine each time!
This band was in the early seventies like a avalanche. I`ve seen them 72, 74, 75 and all gigs have been outstanding,Keith Moon, John Entwistle, never will forget these guys...UK Rock pure at all !
this video encapsulates everything great about rock and roll
i love the who, a lot of people say that keith moon's drumming was like banging on dust bins but i absolutely adore him and his drumming and i don't care what people say. roger is a great singer, i love it when he swings the mike. pete is an outstanding songwriter(this is my favourite song) and john, well what can i say, he's one of the best bassists i have ever seen. this is just the best. Rest in peace my dearest keith and john
I'm always amazed that Roger somehow manages to avoid clobbering someone when he swings that mike around.
I was there and remember this well. Keith was the greatest drummer on the planet, mad as a box of frogs but the greatest drummer.
Lucky You !!
The name of my band's next album will be "Mad As A Box Of Frogs"
Yeah you keep telling yourself that
How old were you then?
kawalski, analysis he was
The Who is the one band where the drummer overshadowed everyone else
This video explains why I love Keith Moon. Hands down favorite drummer of all time. Rest In Paradise buddy.
This is the reason I've got listen to The Who these boys kicked ass throughout the years and still doing it I love it!!
All the members are just... fucking perfect.
Keith Moon was the greatest drummer and I still love to watch and listen to the old Who videos with Keith playing the drums.
This performance showcases Moons abilities on the drums man. So much different from the album version, I listen to this over the album version everytime.
I love Keith's play. My most favorite band in 60-70's.
Just love that ride sound that Keith always has. Who said you can't play the drums without hi-hats?!
It seems as if The Who are one of the few bands that you can just tell they enjoy being on that stage, doing what they love.
Keith is one of the best drummers of all time but he was like fucking hyperactive
Pretty sure he was diagnosed with add as a kid
is moon the loon! like that
He had ADHD
whadaya expect
He was batshit crazy. Which is why he died at such a young age.
I say he was the best, even to this date.
I have never seen a drummer perform like Keith Moon. Ever! Amazing to watch.
Thank God I shared this earth with Moon the loon for 12 years - what a drummer
Always loved this band and Pete's punchy finesse on the guitar.
I ve always loved The Who the group!This song was a favorite of mine back in the 70s !
The craziest drummer ever + the most skilled bass player ever + the best guitarist/songwritter ever + one of the best frontman ever = THE WHO
It's all subjective anyhow, no need to wet your underwear. Pete is a fantastic songwriter and a great guitarist, let's just leave it at that.
Juan Pérez Gilmore!!!
Keith Moon beats are astonishing.
You drunk bruh, frusciante is the best guitarist, flea best bassist, chad smith drummer, anthony the frontman
@@ferdiaroalbert989 Well i think bonham or baker are better than chad smith, John Paul Jones is better (for me at least) than flea but in honesty, flea is a MUCH better showman and Page and Hendrix are way better than Frusciante
Moon was the greatest drummer ever & Entwistle greatest bassist ever. RIP. The Who has been my favorite band since I was a little girl, thank god my mother has great taste in music.
I tend to feel myself that #funk has some of the greatest #basslines. Merry #Christmas!
fantastic and with Keith Moon it's a thrill!!!
you participated history!!! I heard this songs thousands o' times, and can't stop...
This is one of their best live performances on UA-cam I reckon. Awesome in fact.
I think this is the best version off this beauty, what a sound Unreal.
Saw them live in 1972 when they recorded "live at Leeds" - was down the front and couldn't hear for days afterwards. Brilliant!!!
*1970
With drummers like Moon and Peart it's like you have a purely rhythmic version of the song going on by itself. RIP neil
John's sound on this one is incredible! It sounds like a brass orchestra. Pete kept his guitar very clean, and let the drums and the bass add the drive.
Was in Croydon, 69, Fairfield Hall, 2hrs and 15 minutes without break! What a concert! Madness!
I was there fantastic''!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Who IS the ultimate rock band. No weak links in this band .
Hmmm no. Roger Daltrey for once is a mediocre rock singer. I can think of much better rock bands.
Dutch Icefinder listen to him singing I want it all at the Freddie Mercury tribute, it's simply UNBEATABLE! Roger Daltrey have stage presence! Not only voice, but power on the stage
Sorry I don t agree. The Who only "Tommy is a great album, but everything else sucks quite frankly.
Daltrey's voice is not very powerful on stage. You think he was a better rock singer than Freddy Mercury or let s say a Noddy Holder? Give me a break.
if were talking member to member talent its plausible greatest drummer? greatest bass player? one of the best lead guitarists? top 30 easy and yes id agree roger is the weak link not to say he isnt good another band that tick a lot of boxes were rod and the faces
Dutch Icefinder no Roger is not better than Freddie, I haven't said that
Moon, the greatest drummer ever
+mendez
No. He was good but sometimes sloppy, unprecise... Ginger Baker and John Bonham were better.
Bonham and Baker are boring
Carlin lol no
Keith Moon is the man that got me into music and drumming, he's my hero :D My goal in life is to be a drummer NEAR as good as him
this show is the who at their peak-enjoy!
MAGIC ! and what a show they always give , true value for money and a great night out !
Incredible band, the best
Its mad to think that one band can have all four legends in, Keith Moon greatest drummer ever, Peter Townsend one of the best guitarist in the world, Roger Doltery best singer ever and the ox the best bassist to live. No question about it.
Best rock opera ever!
You'll may someone a very lucky dude! lol.... and yeah the who is the shit! :D
Quadrophenia was better imo
Thanks for the update.He seems to know every one of Keiths moves and actions!Hes great!
everything thats ever been anything is dead and gone
so sad..
Never forgotten!
Keith Moon!! What a drummer!
Keith and Neil Peart Greatest drummers of all time
Vocally , during this period , Roger Daltrey was at the height of his powers .
Saw them five times in the eighties, (post- Moon unfortunately-although Kenny Jones is definitely no slouch either). But Daltrey was just a freaking amazing vocalist. Hit every note perfect, just like on all the classic records...and jogging in place at the mic for the whole show, like two hours.
ThefightingCelt greatest rock voice of em all....all x
he's right on -------- they all are ----------- RIGHT ON !!!!!
I saw them after Hendrix, Zep, Stones, Santana, Clapton, etc. I was simply not prepared. You couldn't be.
Love this for decades and continue, timeless.
December 20 1970 at the Round House Chalk Farm London
Elton John
America
The Who
It was a Sunday afternoon and evening I was 15 years old.
Wonderful in every way exciting!
Best live band of all time!
Alice Cooper aptly referred to Keith Moon as an "octopus" and watching him play on this song you can see why.
Steve Hammond
F alice trump hating cooper .
It's that drummer from the Muppet Show - got 6 arms
@@duanegeorges9339 Thought I heard Animal was modeled after Ginger Baker.
We love you Keith,. Hope you are still smashing those drumskins up in heaven,,,you were the best there ever was and ever will be,,xxxxxxx
What a fantastic four piece live band !!!......
I was there - FANTASTIC!!!!!
pure and wonderful ROCK
Oh Mann, FETZT das. Ich glaub the Who sind doch die Besten.
And the Moon still shines brightly....
best song ever... keith my respect
I was there too...as a young hippie girl who came in from Spain just for this concert....no money no tickets but we had lots of love.....rock on kids....never sell out...
Happy birthday Keith Moon *_* RIP

Pode colocar : Boston, Deep Purple, Aerosmith, Rush e Eagles.
Greatest live band I've ever seen
Good old music...love it!
We miss you Keith
1000.000 drum fills per minute
Classic Moon, Dear Boy. Subtle Wrists...
Here's a band that gave it everything they had. One of those acts where you had to be there to really get it. Unfortunately, I never had the pleasure. And now we watch them on clips, but can still imagine the excitement of those times. Thanks for the upload!
Love it. My only criticism is the Ox is barely seen as usual. In my humble opinion, the best bassist to have ever graced the planet.
The amazing Bass that resounds after Pete Townsend's intro. On the Album I believe it's French horns. But John Entwistle playing it on his Bass guitar is so superior.
yes !....the opening bass lines are fucking awesome
French horns?
What's superior is that Entwistle plays both, and the tone he gets on bass to replicate it live. What is cooler, him playing bass or french horn?
They were also at the Isle of Wight in '69.
+floyd pitt was there, what a chaos at great pleasure! Took me two days to gat back!
+Boba Zivkovic You lucky, lucky person.

Probably the only group who can make a studio hit sound better live
I have trouble imagining this song with any other drummer.
I love Keith, check out my drum playlist. I covered this song and tried to play it like Keith.
Pete is so brilliant. Love how he sounds just like a pinball machine.
this is all incredible, the music, that period was briliant indeed
Great bands look back a little to the influences of eras that came before. Henry Purcel, Baroque composer was influential to some of the ways of this great band.
nixie NICLA lol, never made this connection, but I suppose you're right!
Yup. The sus4 chord.
Does Anyone Here Realize How Special Keith Moon Was?Or Is It Just Me That Finds Him Amazing!?
Just a one-off natural genius on the drums.. can improvise at the drop of a hat and make a good performance great
Keith Moon was one the worlds most entertaining drummers, very similar
to Gene Krupa. Considering he was self taught and never practised much
he was incredible. What a life he lived. RIP Keith.
and Townsend writing and playing those opening chords and Daltry...Greatest band ever...
This must have been the concert of all time.
I'm not a drummer, just someone who has a keen sense of rhythm and timing. Keith was a machine.
No. He said it correctly. Moon was the greatest ever. Period.
This song is the reason I'm a Wholagin.
And this is how it's done, kids.
One of the greatest Songs all Time !!!
One of the best list-adds I've ever read.
"The one" is Zak Starkey, Ringo's son. Keith taught him.
I ❤ Keith!!!!
Keiths drumming really leads this song
I CAN'T STOP LISTENING IT
Best song ever! Todal eligence to this band!! Wish they still played. ( also I love the microphone!!! )
