The Who - Anyway Anyhow Anywhere - Ready Steady GO! 

I hear this and I think of Jimmy in Quadrophenia doing his "air drumming" while watching this on the telly!

Townshend probably completely blew that audience's mind with that guitar solo. No one was playing like that back then, and with that much volume.

The Who are criminally underrated. Nobody was playing like this in 1965. Pete Townshend started the feedback, psychedelic guitar style that Hendrix always gets credited for, imo.

Guys and Gals, this is 1965. Yes 1965. This is the birth of British Rock, Heavy Metal and Punk and the list goes on. The most influential band ever.

Man I just love how everything goes absolutely apeshit

Cameraman's kinda the Keith Moon of cameramen here.

One of the most important songs in this legendary band's catalog. This tune, especially this live version, is the true origin of THE WHO. Biting vocals, feedback, rumbling bass and off the wall, yet outstanding drumming. Five years later they would be assaulting people's eardrums(in the best way possible) with Live at Leeds. Just an amazing and groundbreaking evolution.

Entwhistle's falsetto is a secret weapon

And that's why they are the greatest band in the world - EVER!

Never has a band had 3(!) separate players play SO AGGRESSIVELY at the same time and just kick SO MUCH FUCKIN' ASS-WOW!!! The middle part is FUCKING INSANE. I can't imagine what those people must of thought at that time (1965)...beyond the beyond.

Amazing how Keith Moon even without necessarily doing his flashiest work propels the song with equal parts of ferocity and control. Even when he's just laying down the beat he was an exciting and interesting drummer.

53 years old and sounds like it was recorded 10 minutes ago. Amazing. Astounding. But yet another top-notch 60s band who let their standards drop in the following decade.

Man, the middle part of this song is REALLY FUCKED UP! It's almost like they did that on purpose to confound all the teenyboppers at the sockhop into thinking they were dancing to another cute pop song when the band decided to add some chaos to the mix! Now THAT'S what I call "Punk Rock"!

Look at that camera work... Ready Unsteady GO!

This is THE definitive version of this song, end of story.

Phenomenal version of this great Who classic… don’t think I’ve ever heard it done better!

The Who. Greatest Band Ever !!!

People bang on about better drummers..... but it all starts with Keith.... you cant take your eyes off him!!

I'm feeling like Jimmy in front of his TV with his wet jeans

I got into The Who when this record came out. We went to see them at Pete Stringfellows Mojo Club in Sheffield. Imagine the effect this had on the dancing audience inside a fairly small club. Straight away we noticed Keith's wild and brilliant drumming, Pete's windmilling arm, just enough headroom to do it, John stood motionless at the back, playing bass from another planet. and Roger's great vocals. The other act that night was Geno Washington and the Ram Jam Band, and while they were on stage, The Who came and watched them from next to us on the floor. Roger was right next to me. I can't compare entrance fees with todays values, but it would have cost peanuts to get in in '65, maybe 10 bob ( half a £) for an act like that.

Loud and raw. Orchestrated chaos.

Keith Moon Increible Drummer 🥁🤘

I've come criminally late to the Who's music but boy! Am I glad I've arrived! What an amazing, beautiful, powerful sound! Their music ignites a deep passion in me!

This is extremely hard-rocking for 1965. Compare what the other of the "big three" were doing then. The Beatles released Help! and the Stones released Now!, great albums, but not hard rocking at all, really. I had to check the date of this video right after starting it, just to be sure it was in 1965. The combination of Townshend's powerful sound (he actually asked Jim Marshall to create a louder amp for him in the early sixties, leading to the JTM45), Daltrey's rarely subtle, but raucous vocals, and the crashing drumming from Moon, The Who was a "perfect storm" of early hard rock.

To me they were the first commercial rock band in the world, I also think that they paved the way for the heavy rock groups that came later.

This should have 100 million views. Incredible footage. !

Tremendous stuff. The drums make it but the whole thing is fucking awesome.

Christ my mobile jumped out of my hand half way through this with the feedback ... lived the mod movement 2nd time around 79 n into the 80s .. this track was an anthem

Always baffled me when I watch this, as to why-during the guitar 'solo', the director focuses almost solely on Keith's, albeit incredible drumming. Especially when you hear the most immaculate violence being ripped out of the guitar by Townshend. But then, isn't everyone's life a litany of lost opportunity!!....Respect due from this Old Goth....This footage is absolutely top drawer!!!

Keith creates tension like no other drummer...

what can you say pure energy no one came close

I wish they hadn't gotten so "creative" with the camera. Even with all the shaking, you can still see the fluidness of keith.

Greatest Pop Art guitar break ever!

Best 3 minutes of live music ever. Never bettered. To have been in that studio at the time.........wow

Astonishing performance! It's great that they know how to fit in with each other and yet they're all competing.

Sitting here few beers in this lockdown nonsense. Brilliant tune!!

This is the most incredible tune and performance of its tyme for sure.

shame there's no music as raw as this these days

1965, the Beatles Help, Elvis Presley, crying in the chapel and then this. WOW

An inspirational piece of work, first seen by me in the mid-'80's when I was fourteen - it had a big influence on me, enriching my musical thoughts from then on. The way Townsend used his guitar controls to create those biting, jabbing yet rhythmic chords is fantastic.

RIP Keith. Sept 7th

WE aRE THe Mods!

Great performance by moon the loon ,got to be one of the best drummers ever

On this day in 1965 {December 9th} a video of The Who's "Anyhow, Anyway, Anywhere" was aired on the ABC-TV week-day evening program, 'Shindig', this episode of 'Shindig' was taped in London, England... Six months earlier on June 27th, 1965 "Anyhow, Anyway, Anywhere" peaked at #10 {for 1 week} on the United Kingdom's Single chart... Between 1965 and 2012 the Who had thirty-three records on the U.K. Singles chart, thirteen made the Top 10 with their two biggest hits both peaking at #2, "My Generation" for 2 weeks in 1965 and "I'm a Boy" for 1 week in 1966... Sadly, two of the four original members have passed away, Keith Moon {1946 - 1978} and John Entwistle {1944 - 2002}... May they both R.I.P. And from the 'For What It's Worth' department, the U.K. Top 10 Singles on June 27th, 1965: At #1. "Crying In The Chapel" by Elvis Presley #2. "I'm Alive" by The Hollies #3. "The Price Of Love" by The Everly Brothers #4. "Colours" by Donovan #5. "Looking Through The Eyes Of Love" by Gene Pitney #6. "Trains And Boats And Planes" by Burt Bacharach #7. "Long Live Love" by Sandie Shaw #8. "The Clapping Song" by Shirley Ellis #9. "Set Me Free" by The Kinks #10. the above "Anyway Anyhow Anywhere"

One of rock's best moments!

Nobody, Nobody was doing anything remotely like this at the time. No one drummed like that and Townsend using and controlling Feed back set him apart from other guitar players.

incroyable, en 1965 ! et Keith MOON à la batterie, pas grand monde à ce niveau à l'époque !

In1965 The Who Black and white video is Sensational Performance and forever in time ❤️❤️😊😊

"Is that how you're supposed to play a guitar"

Good example of why Keith Moon was one of the greatest rock drummers ever.

This song was way way ahead it's time. Punk - just more musical.

Lou Reed and John Cale definitely had this one in mind when it came to the sound of the Velvet Underground

Simply The Best. I played this so loud when I was 15 in 1965. Put my ears by the record player speaker. Still do it today at 73. THE WHO!

I swear to god it sometimes appears that Keith Moon is drumming with yardsticks lol

I can't recall which Rolling Stone writer calls this solo "gloriously disorienting," but he nailed it.

I love how Pete just shrugs off the wrong note at 2:28

Keith moon shredding it

keith moon was a god

Watching this while wearing my sopping wet Levi's

One of the greatest bands ever!

Love this version alot more coz of the rawness than the version on cd,s with the piano added , i first watched this on ready steady go in early 80,s n loved it since then love the who songs , i wont listen to songs without keith on his drum kit

Could this be the earliest known example of raking the pick down a guitar string? Pete wasn't a shredder but he had such a cool sound all his own, I know Pete's playing without seeing him,

Love the 60’s special effects :D “Okay Bob, just zoom in and out really fast and throw the camera about a lot” “Won’t that just look really funny and a bit ‘awww’ in 60yrs time?” “Look, CGI hasn’t been invented yet so we gotta make do”

¡¡¡¡This is the REAL SHIT!!!! A kinda shit that keeps surprising me even after 30yrs of my 1st hearing it. The nastiest, hardest, noisiest, most distorted, heaviest, SHIT ever recorded. Half a century before Nirvana; decades before Sonic Youth; 5 years before Sabbath, Zeppelin, Funkadelic, or King Crimson; 2 years before Hendrix, or Velvet Underground;..... NOTHING, absolutely nothing, in the whole history of Rock CAN COMPARE TO THIS FUCKING SONIC MAYHEM deviced by The Who.

Eu adoro a técnica do windmill na guitarra kkkkkk,uma das técnicas mais incríveis feita na guitarra, obrigado Pete townshend por criar ela

The Rickenbacker/Fender Bassman Head & cab sounds great.

Pete Townshend and Rodger Daughtry legends of the 1960s Music Sounds Concerts all Excellence

Just a great effing band full stop, reading Daltreys book at the minute so hoovering up youtube vids to go alongside is a real treat!

greatest rock song ever made

Legendary

First ever punk song ? I think so

1979 Cincinnati heard about that the band did sing great A Legendary Historical Legendary Classic Music Concert Production performance ❤️🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶😊😊😊❤️😊🎵🎵The Who Forever ❤️❤️

The Who for ever

Pete's great but it's actually Keith and John really blowing it up IMO. John is playing fast bass riffs like Cream and heavy rock were doing years later and Keith is playing like no one before or since.

Power & volume!!⚡️⚡️

I’ve only been looking forever and yours is the only clean video on site! Thank you

Makes The Beatles look like a nursery rhyme band. JUST WOW!!!!!!!

Another brilliant song from the WHO like this one from a tv programme I used to watch ready steady go.long live mods 🤩😊😎🤗

A frenetic ball of energy unlike any other band at that point. Important this is these guys could play! It always amazes me that the older generation who were in their 70s and 80s back then- the grans and grandads- were Victorians! They were born in the 1880s 90s and 1900s before cinema, radio, tv automobiles and manned flight. They fought in the First World War. They experienced the greatest period of innovation the world had ever undergone. The music and dress of their grandkids must've seemed totally alien!

Simply perfect

Keith moon greatest drummer ever followed by rat scabies from the damned

The BEST. There's no way you can argue that.

Insane for 1965

Un des meilleurs titres des who...s'ils n'y avaient pas ajouté une cacophonie en plein milieu dans le morceau...

Legends no more said

Keith force of nature Moon

Iconic

Ingenious!

Drop those blues baby!

The Best Mod Band...!!!

pure exciting!

The one person who dislikes this, thinks "Who Are You" is the best Who song ever!

Phil Daniels headbanging to this clip in quadraphenia whilst his dad looks on in disapproval. Calling them a bunch of louts lol

Cameraman just found out about the zoom feature and couldn't stop

That'll make you deaf, y'know!

The who any way any how anywhere classic song from the sixties

Para mi esta es la mejor canción de la historia del rock&roll. 💣💣💣💣💣💥💥💥💥🤘🤘🤘

Just the greatest band ever. x
