The best bassist in rock, the best rock drummer, and one of the best songwriters/composers and powerful guitarists on one stage with Daltrey at the height of his power. A joy to behold. There is no better live band in the history of rock than the Who.
the stones did some country rock songs most notably in the late 60's (albums like let it bleed) and they did some ballads like angie, wild horses and dead flowers, they also did some jazz and folk songs, so there were not really only rock n roll, but the who not only were the first ones to rock real hard but they were much more musically diverse than the stones but the who really are the best and the ultimate rock band of all time!!!!!!
Good god I LOVE this band. The best rock band to have ever walked the face of this earth, and the most astounding rhythm section you will ever hear! Someone said recently that the Who never jammed. As was said further down in the comments "What a pantload"!!! That's a brilliant saying :-)) All bands should sit down to watch the Isle of Wight concert and listen to Live at Leeds and THEN see if they can call themselves a rock band. I love the 'Orrible 'Oo!
Yeah fair call about the Stones. The comment I wrote was a year ago before I really go into the Rolling Stones. And I agree with you 100% The Who really are the best and the ultimate rock band of all time.
Led Zeppelin - Hard Serious and the best musicians ever The WHo -Hard pure fun and fuckin epic if you can choose between those 2 bands you are not human i mean those bands changed the world with music style rock and roll and appearance god without them world would be meaningless
I'd say The Who were more complex than to be simply titled "The World's Greatest Rock N' Roll Band." Their work dives far beyond one genre where as the Stones are only Rock N' Roll & nothing else. So the world's greatest rock n' roll band should go to the stones, The greatest band of all time should go to The Who
Oh, yes - these are some of the most vicious windmills I've ever seen Townsend smash - and how he does them without consistently shredding his hands, I just don't know. And, certainly, this has to be Moon at the height of his skills. The guy in the skeleton suit ain't no slouch, either! These guys were killers, in their day!
I have never seen a better Who performance than this one. it always makes the hairs on my neck stand on end whenever I see Townshend's windmill solo. Without The Who, British rock history would have been very lame.
Damn!!!!!!!! John Entwistle from 1:35-1:54 can you say All aboard!!!!!!!!!! the locomotive is knocking the frickin walls down. WTF!!!!!!!!!!!! John Paul Jones, Jack Bruce and Geddy Lee etc: eat your fricking hearts out guys!!!!!!!!!!!!! you guys could NEVER touch him. great players, but J Entwistle was in a League all his Own. from a different planet for sure!!!!!!!!!!!!
Man, Roger's singing is so emotional here, he really sounds like he's about to start crying, and it's so true...the myth about so-called "stupid teenagers" is nothing more than prejudice.
this song is very similar to led zeppelin's black dog, if u consider the vocals and the guitar riffs, after all, these band and these songs defined the classic hard rock genre!!!!!!
these were the good old days of sex, drugs and rock n roll when musicans were actually talented and had to put a lot of effort and hard work into their music!!!!!!
I wish THIS band could have played at the fucking Super Bowl a couple of years back. On a separate note, I'm so glad John ditched the Fender for the rest of his career. They never did fit him BEST, IMO.
keith moon is the nickelback drummer before his time...either that or the creed drummer...keith would be nowhere without those studs...or wait ..a minute...i forgot the chick from disturbed...
Yeah - none of your namby-pamby hippie stuff here! Just raw, unchecked testosterone and bleeding ears and amps! I'm astounded how many people - especially young people - know, at least a bit, about The Beatles, but know next to nothing about The Who. There will NEVER, EVRE be such a combination again - an UNBELIEVABLE rhythm section, phenomenal composer, and prototypical rock vocalist. But I forgot, "Rock is Dead!" Long Live Rooooccckk!!! Maybe it'll make a comeback, eh?

The greatest live rock and roll band.
One of the best live recording, ever!

I love the 'Orrible 'Oo!
Please tell me how you can't like this.....this is epic!!!
Dean Gericke True In the days when music erupted rather than today which is mundane.
Yeah fair call about the Stones. The comment I wrote was a year ago before I really go into the Rolling Stones. And I agree with you 100% The Who really are the best and the ultimate rock band of all time.
Never could stand this band but this is one of my all time fav rock songs
the more i listen to the who ,the more i love them
i would call them the best and the ultimate rock band of all time!!!!!!
Moon and Townsend freestyling in front of 1000's....How i wish i had a time machine....I LOVE THE 'Orrible OOOO!!
Fuck this, i'm getting the DVD and putting that on!!
Awesome, just awesome.
this is just F*&KIN' INCREDIBLE!!!
A Band used by all others to measure their own self worth.
The Who are the greatest of all.
yeah, zeppelin for life, and the who is also one of my favorite bands... cream too, and the beatles, as well as many other bands from that time =)
Oh, Young Man...what a song! Q_Q
MOONIE IS MY MAN! BALLS OUT BRILLIANT!
Briiliant!
Excelente Video.
@gowplayer2 did you see the video were he blowss up his drum set? its awesome
You are quite correct!
Joe Bonamassa played this at his gig last night in belfast, was immense!!!
listen to the bass line amazing
geez what a powerful song
Led Zeppelin - Hard Serious and the best musicians ever
The WHo -Hard pure fun and fuckin epic
if you can choose between those 2 bands you are not human i mean those bands changed the world with music style rock and roll and appearance god without them world would be meaningless
They held a Guiness record for world's loudest rock band for quite a while.
@deathwish959 it's a remix of "young man blues" by muse allison
the guy in da skelton suit? just the best pound for pound bass player EVER
That windmill at 4:44 ... I can just hear R. Lee Ermey saying HO-LEE JEE-SUS.
Bloody great Hiwatt amps buh golly!
@lucee74 what about "wont get fooled again" and "who are you" he uses them in those songs....in the recording atleast.
such badasses
i have never heard john entwistle play so well until now
LED ZEPPELIN
but the who are my second personal favorite. both had immense stage prowess.
What a tune! Doing of housework 2 it now! Well not right now, right now i'm writing this, obv! Lol ;p xxx
yea thanks man
Keith Moon was the Brett Favre of drumming. Fun as hell to watch play.
4:44 is prime. Ultimate wind milling at its best.
omg the bass line is so sick
rocks!
@MilwGonzo how bout it! Like wat u said about RAW POWER. Seriously!!!! An amazing band to say the least.
definitive
I'd say The Who were more complex than to be simply titled "The World's Greatest Rock N' Roll Band." Their work dives far beyond one genre where as the Stones are only Rock N' Roll & nothing else. So the world's greatest rock n' roll band should go to the stones, The greatest band of all time should go to The Who
i feel ya man

The Who, back in the "day".
I have never seen a better Who performance than this one. it always makes the hairs on my neck stand on end whenever I see Townshend's windmill solo. Without The Who, British rock history would have been very lame.
@lexy67flc The 'Oo are the epitomy of jamming!
I've heard it said by some that the Rolling Stones are "the world's greatest rock & roll band" - what a fucking pantload.
MONUMENT ! et pi c'est tout !
@QueenetBowie agreed!
John Entwisle.
Holy shit, he's good.
@QueenetBowie yeah same with gen Z in 13 and i think the who r awesome
Damn!!!!!!!! John Entwistle from 1:35-1:54 can you say All aboard!!!!!!!!!! the locomotive is knocking the frickin walls down. WTF!!!!!!!!!!!! John Paul Jones, Jack Bruce and Geddy Lee etc: eat your fricking hearts out guys!!!!!!!!!!!!! you guys could NEVER touch him. great players, but J Entwistle was in a League all his Own. from a different planet for sure!!!!!!!!!!!!
i was there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Man, Roger's singing is so emotional here, he really sounds like he's about to start crying, and it's so true...the myth about so-called "stupid teenagers" is nothing more than prejudice.

@bushokjew00t Correct.

@slighe39 Oh yeah!

Mose Allison wrote this song not Pete.
RIP Keith Moon
In fact, you could argue its the "cats ass", another saying from the not-so-recent past.
this footage is over 40 years old and its the fucking cats pyjamas
@cassianpet 4 sure
The bombs start falling at 1:40.
nobody rocks as hard as Pete ......well maybe except Angus but thats it
these were the good old days of sex, drugs and rock n roll when musicans were actually talented and had to put a lot of effort and hard work into their music!!!!!!
E L E C T R I F Y I N G that is all
