Sooooo true! The part starting with "The cracks between the paving stones // Like rivers of flowing veins...." in the original Quadrophenia is the most epic duel-a-trois between voice, drum and bass that history has ever heard or will ever hear again. These bassist and drummer are very good, but no match to the powerful Moon/Entwistle duo! So tragic they´re gone.....
Yep, they didn't even try which is quite a statement for John. In fact at 00:45 Pete's wow, wow isn't original as I recall and meant as filler for John's absence....(?)
Speechless so so good. I was there what an explosive concert. THE WHO are simply the best Live act what an incredible band I first saw them live in 1965 they never disappoint
The Who is as brilliant as ever. They are one hell of a band, probably one of the greatest bands of all time. I credit them with a "Catarina Genius Award"
John Entwistle is probable the greatest bass guitarist of time so sadly missed it is almost impossible to replace him he was that good R.I.P JOHN AND KEITH WE ALL WHO FAN'S MISS YOU ROCK ON UP THERE.
Shout out to Scott Devours filling in for Zak Starkey on this tour. Really had a busy feel with the Moon-like drum fills on this track. Good job Scott.
@inthesurf. I'm referring to Breeze Motors comments about jayz and Taylor Swift. I know how old The Who are you fucking D-Bag. I saw them at the Pontiac Silverdome in 82.
Pete certainly shows here that he'has aged to perfection as a guitarist . Moonie passed away, the Ox passed away and Towser adapted his guitar style for their passings
I remember this song at Cobo Hall Detroit 1973 just got my driver's license and went saw the Who it was the best show! They were loud didn't have ear plugs either! My ears were for about a day after Quadrphenia was a kickass album Rock Opera after Tommy they made good music!
This is the best version of the song The Real Me ever. A real fierce rock and roll that simply can't be heard anywhere else. In a word, this version and this song are a MASTERPIECE of pop art.
@@johannesswillery7855 Fuck, listen to the studio version. The Who were amazing live, but they lost a lot of their spark over the last few decades. Not to mention, Quadrophenia is the least played live performance from Keith was still alive. He needs to listen to the studio version before anything else if he thinks this is best version.
I effing love love The Who, Mc Vicar inspired me to become a career criminal. I literally owe you my life. I love you guys, rip Ox & Loon. Long live blue eyes and Jimmy.
Could you imagine Paul and Ringo doing a show and billing themselves as the Beatles? C'mon, now! That said, these fellows are in good form on this classic song.
I miss Moon and John as much as anyone but the guys that have in place of them have always been pretty great. It's been a very long time since Moon passed and getting on in time for John. These guys still put on a great show no matter. I've seen them 2x since John passed and several times since Moon passed and have never been disappointed one bit. To me they are still the greatest of all time and have passed the test of time. So get over the comparisons and accept things as they are and that is still the best....
Jadore ! Roger Daltrey à une voix génial ! Ce Live est excellent j'aurais tellement aimer les voirs en vrai ! Quadrophenia est un album tellement parfait ! J'écoute les vinyle sans m'en lasser j'adore! 💙❤💙❤💙❤
Still sounding great after all these years, admittedly the bass will never be the same without John Entwistle but I beleive they have had to turn the volume down a fair bit due to the state of Pete's hearing...hence the plastic shield in front of the drums
Who's the best rock group ? ... Who ! ... I mean who's the best rock-n-roll group ? ... Who ! ... the name of the best band ? ... Who ! ... I mean name the group that plays the best rock-n-roll ? ...Who is the best rock band ! ... Well why are you asking me for? ... I'm not asking you - I'm telling you, who is the best ! ... I'm asking you - who's the best ? ... That's the band's name ! ...
That's who's name ? ... Yes ! ... When you pay the band after a gig, who gets the money ? ... Every dollar of it - and why not they're entitled to it. ... Who is ? ... Yes ...So who gets it ? ... And why shouldn't they? Sometimes their wives collect it. ... Who's wives ? ... Yes, after all, who earned it ? ... Who did ? ... Absolutely ! (apologies Abbott & Costello)
Wow, that's still the 'Oo, all right! But no camera work on the bass player and drummer who rocked out admirably as any post Moon or Entwistle rhythm section on a very challenging rhythm track?
I gotta say "Pino" Palladino had some enormous boots to fill and he did great... but he lacked the aggression and sonic assault of John Entwistle (not to mention TONE). Zak Starkey did an amazing job but he was a little "Kenny Jones" and not as loose and aggressive as Kieth Moon. I guess that's the key element between the "pre-Moon death" and "post-Entwistle death" era of the WHO... for a guy the grew up on Quadrophenia and "Live at Leeds" WHO, they lost that edge beginning in 1978 and after 2002. Townshend & Daltrey should start over again with new material and let the WHO rest in the memory of Kieth and John and the great works they created together... just my opinion.
The girl I used to love Lives in this yellow house Yesterday she passed me by She doesn't want to know me now Can you see the real me, can you, can you? Can you see the real me, can you? Oh yes
I agree. The bass sounds pretty squashes. Its not like Pino isnt a great bassist either. On the album version of this live show you can hear it clear as day and it sounds as powerful as ever
You said it. I just thought: Daltrey is singing this amazingly and reminds me of the original recording... and so what. This is not a classic for the Who. "The Seeker", "I Can't Explain", "Won't Get Fooled Again". Yes. We will know and listen to the Who in 50 years (we'll be dead in100) and who is this al Sharpton dude - should I listen to hiM? did he ever play with Metallica like Diamond Head? Ha ha. why do we mention his name. I saw Moon once live, far away, but it didn't matter. It was like someone from another planet decided to join us. Way better than Peart.
I love the who, but the live peformance (same with 5:15) of this song makes painfully obvious how important john really was, the song just loses all its power without john's signature sound and sound levels. Great peformance by pete and roger tho.
If you go on spotify, and search up "Quadrophenia Live in London" the mix is like night and day. Pino definitely knows how to slap the bass and he sounds just as powerful as Entwistle did
@@braydenfletcher8159 not true, the bass sound in this RU-vid vídeo and spotfy álbum was the same, John is really missed, Zak do a great job on the drums but Pino sucks on that bass, probally the reason of they had 2 guitar players in the band now, pino is really weak...
Pearl Jam covered this in Cincinnati last night, and it was fantastic. I guess people were crushed to death in the U.S Bank Arena 30 years ago during a Who concert?
Funny how time and age changes things. Range lower, less visual and usually less movement. What I find amazing is that these guys, from the 70s look in better shape than the hair bands from the 80s do now.
