Keith Moon was a terrible #drummer. That's why he's one of the most influential ever. #drums #keithmoon #thewho

Currently reading this, and I'm absolutely riveted. A wonderful follow-up to the autobiographies of Townshend and Daltrey, that I had read previously. Taken together they form an interesting holistic view of a turbulent band in a turbulent era.

If you're at all interested in #TheWho, I highly recommend it!

I saw The Who at The Philadelphia Spectrum Dec 1979, don’t remember if it was the 10th or 11th. One of best shows I ever saw.

"Dreadlock holiday" is probably playing on one of those nationalised commercial stations right now.

"Who Are You" by The Who released on this day in 1978, their 8th studio album.
"Who Are You" was The Who's last album to feature Keith Moon as their drummer; Moon died three weeks after the album's release. The paradoxical nature of the text "Not To Be Taken Away" that was written on Moon's chair on the album cover was noted by some critics. Moon's death brought concerns that the band would have to fold. He was ultimately replaced by Kenney Jones.

Ted Tocks Covers - Year 6 - Day 89

Who Are You

This iconic album by The Who was released 45 years ago today.

“I woke up in a Soho doorway
A policeman knew my name
He said, "You can go sleep at home tonight
If you can get up and walk away."

I staggered back to the underground
And the breeze blew back my hair
I remember throwin' punches around
And preachin' from my chair”

This week's JukeboxFridayNight is RockNRollHeaven, honouring the artists we've lost and the music we've kept (right?).

Anyway, that joint upstairs must be jumping by now!

I'll start in the seventies, and bounce around like a waterdrop on a woofer …

The Who, "Trick of the Light" (1978)

Penned by John Entwistle (1944~2002), who played an eight-string Alembic bass on the track, and sung by Roger Daltrey.

“Out here in the fields, I fight for my meals
I get my back into my living
I don't need to fight to prove I'm right
I don't need to be forgiven”

@flockofnazguls @miguelpergamon @N0ZB don’t think #thewho made better. Just opinion of course. Several other albums of great worth too

Et Heaven and Hell meilleure intro de concert pour #TheWho

It’s Old for #FortnightFridayMusic and what could be better than a band who were in the lineup at Woodstock in ‘69

The lyric of a generation “I hope I die before I get old”

Song: My Generation
Band: The Who
Album: My Generation
Released: 1965
Video: https://youtu.be/qN5zw04WxCc
Live at Woodstock https://youtu.be/gJecJ5SI5W0

Lyrics

"People try to put us d-down
(talkin' 'bout my generation)
Just because we get around
(talkin' 'bout my generation)
Things they do look awful c-c-cold
(talkin' 'bout my generation)
I hope I die before I get OLD
(talkin' 'bout my generation)"
