Short Disclaimer: You may or may not notice that I did not mention everything The Who have released, or all the people in their line-up at all times. Nor did I mention [I]Tommy[/I](the movie) or [I]Quadrophenia[/I] (the movie). I wanted to focus on The Who’s music in their prime years, rather than their various reunions and films.

dude lol it would have saved you alot of time to just post the link to The Who's info page on wikipedia lol

its the same info and maybe more detailed.

to dragonprince: yes, frumpy_dint @ hotmail dot com

yea but dude lol then it wouldn't have been my own work that I put my effort into for a band I love. Everyone can get on wikipedia to see what they say about the Who. Not everyone can see what Lunch has to say about the Who.

You're right though, it basically is the same info. I should go tell Jom, Steerpike, Med, Riva, and everyone else to stop putting their efforts into detailed write-ups for MX because they probably didn't know that the information they used was somewhere else on the internet already.

oh yeah send me the shtuff as well

: D

just started listening to them.....good stuff! :thumb:

You got the other email with the fixed link, right?

yes

Right now I'm listening the the Royal Albert Hall show on my new laptop speakers (even though they were cheap, I got ones with a sub just for Entwistle). I've always thought they did a good job at this show, but listening through their are some moments where the band gets back to a little bit of the magic from Leeds. Sure it's not the same, but for what it is they have some real great spots on RAH. John is in such fine form the whole way through, it's just great to listen to.

speaking on John, does anybody notice how his singing really went downhill? I always thought he was a great singer (better then Pete, IMO) with a great range. But I'm listening to this '79 concert, and I notice some strain (some, but its still there). Flash forward to their late 90s/early 00s Who and solo Entwistle, and he's lost ALOT, far far more then Pete or Roger. In fact, he just stopped singing harmonies period, only singing for My Wife (which he really sounds strained).

Yea, I guess singing in both the "Boris the Spider" voice and then "you are forgiiiiiven" glass-shattering voice caught up to him over the years.

Yeah I think that album is underrated because of all of the guest stars and the fact that people see a picture of aged musisians and think they are past their prime. Though I think that all of the band members really shine on that album. I really love the additions to The Kids Are Alright on that album. I like that version better than the original.

The guest stars do drag the album down, I think. The Who can take care of their own business, especially while John was still alive.

Oh, I wrote another FA. Not that you guys particularly care about the group, but check it out:

[QUOTE=Street_Fighting_Man]I don't think it was a peak time for the band, but it definitely wasn't a bad time live like some people think. I think the biggest difference is the chemistry between the instrumentalists. I mean, Kenny Jones is good, but just look at how Moon, Entwistle, and Townshend gelled together, especially during improvised instrumentals. I don't think anybody could recreate that kind of thing that they had around '69-'70, but they were always great live.[/QUOTE]
yes, Moon, Entwistle and Townshend certainly defined the power trio. but little was lost onstage IMO with Jones behind the kit in the '79-81 years. the Who had already turned a corner so far as performance is concerned from the early years and the Tommy/Leeds era. Thier performances from Whos Next on were somewhat different and from Quadrophenia on they gave more conventional performances. IMHO the '79-81 live Who were a peak performing band. peak of the '70's. with or without Moon. They were simply right on and dead solid. and Roger was perhaps at his best ever.

[QUOTE=Seafroggys]I've enver liked Jones style of drumming. he had this big *** drumset, but never used it. I saw him do a two bar fill that was just 16th notes on the snare, no accents or nothing, just straight 16th notes on the snare for two bars. I thought that was really lame.[/QUOTE]
Jones used all of his kit. just not like Moon. certainly he was a much more straight up and straight forward drummer. but he got the job done well. could of been looser, but meh....

yeah, RAH is great. that is the Who. John, Roger, Pete, Bundrick, Starkey. good group. the additional four songs they added after Johns death (I Don't Even Know Myself, Young Man Blues, etc) is fantastic.

yeah. Entwistle's voice was pretty much shot by the return of the Who at the turn of the decade. my guess is too many cigarettes, too much booze, and a bit much coke.

i've just realized there's the song "I've Had Enough" and "Had Enough"....totally crazy!

Indeed.

I'm still really excited to see them.

: D

I'm listening to this Chicago bootleg right now. Just got the third part downloaded and that's what I was waiting for, as I wanted to hear it beginning to end. Remarkable. Really. I like this [i]a lot[/i]. Got the sound adjustments optimized. Very nice.

Thanks once again, Jeff....

Yeah, it's not the best sounding bootleg in the world, but it is a very good show.

And you're welcome.

I'm goin to see the mother****in who October 3rd bitches!!!

Too bad two of 'em are dead...

But still...I'll be able to carry around a ticket stub taht shows that I saw one of Rock and Roll's legends.

^yes. and they are great still. enjoy it. don't worry about missing John. have a great time and check back in to tell us how it was....


EDIT: that didn't last long, Jeff :(
