Tull Fan Too Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 QUOTE (floydfanatic111 @ Feb 3 2006, 01:17 AM)QUOTE (Tull Fan Too @ Feb 2 2006, 12:58 AM) Sorry, but I have to disagree with you on the Tommy show. That performance (on VHS) was my first introduction to Tommy and to The Who. It made me into a life-long Who fan and without that, I probably would not be a Rush fan. That being said, I can understand why many people don't like it. It isn't "classic Who", or even strictly "post-Moon Who", but a completely different animal altogether. I saw The Who on that 1989 tour in Foxboro Stadium in July of 1989, my first ever concert I went to. They did 1/2 of Tommy to start which was Overture and It's a Boy then 1921(with Daltrey singing), Amazing Journey, Sparks, The Acid Queen(Pete sang), Pinball Wizard, Do You Think It's Alright, Fiddle About(The Ox sang), I'm Free, Tommy's Holiday Camp(Pete singing and acting goofy) and We're Not Gonna Take It. Plus their early singles(I Can't Explain, My Generation, Substitute, I Can See For Miles, Magic Bus(just Daltrey, Townshend and Entwistle)) some album tracks(I'm One from Quadrophenia with Townshend by himself, Too Much of Anything from Odds and Sods just Daltrey and Townshend, A Trick of the Light with The Ox singing instead of Roger, My Wife), the obvious classics(Summertime Blues, Baba O' Riley, Behind Blue Eyes, Won't Get Fooled Again(which closed the show), 5:15, Love Reign O'er Me, Who Are You, You Better You Bet) and Pete even played some solo tracks(A Little is Enough, A Friend is a Friend, Face the Face, Rough Boys) and also a version of Love Hurts(the Roy Orbison song made famous by Nazareth). Great show it was but the all-star performance of Tommy was not my cup of tea. Wow- you saw The Who on that tour?! Man, I envy you- I hope I have the chance to go to a Who show sometime.

Moonraker Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 I have heard rumors The Who are going to be on tour this year. In summer 2004, I saw what was left of The Who in Mountain View. It was incredible to see them, but age is definatly catching up to Roger and Pete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My one regret is that I never saw them while Entwistle was still alive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tull Fan Too Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 floydfanatic, do you have the Join Together box set? That should be very close to the concert you went to. It has all of Tommy on the first disc and a bunch of other songs on the second- many of those are the same ones you mentioned. I have it, and while I've never been partial to the first disc for reasons already mentioned, I enjoy most of the songs on the second disc. But Isle of Wight and Leeds still blow it out of the water, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, even the worst pre-78 recording blows any post-Moon Who out of the water...I liked Face Dances and It's Hard, but there are no comparisons.

Another live album to add to the list: Guns N' Roses - Live Era 1987-1993 I definatly have to disagree there. Though the Who did loose the same drumming dynamic, the writing creativity that came from Townshend and to a lesser extent, Entwistle was still there. I thought they took a much more mature, less naive tone on those albums. Songs like Cache Cache, The Quiet One, How Can You Do It Alone, You, Dangerous, Eminence Front, Why Did I Fall For That were all incredible. Sure they may have sounded better with Moon's drumming style, but the creativity was not gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Join Together album reminded me of show I went to. The expanded Leeds from 2001 is the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barchetta90480 Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 Hardly anybody might know them, but Urk by THE NITS (a Dutch band that celebrated their 30th birthday in 2004 ...) is to me the seminal live album. Along with Purple's Made in Japan, Lizzy's Lif/ve and The Who's Live At Leeds. I love Alchemy by the Dire Straits as well - their last good album, anyway.

barchetta90480 Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 Ooops! Didn't intend to post my mini list three times! Still, if you can get "Urk" somewhere, give it a try ... it's worth three posts! Another awesome live album I forgot: Bob Dylan Live 1966 (The "Royal Albert Hall" Concert) is probably the most important, most exciting and most energetic live album ever made. He's above them all in that respect. Metallica are powerless farts in comparison to the second disc. (They're powerless farts anyway. Have always been. Sorry, needed to say that.)
