I've been wishing that, too. I saw it exactly ONCE, in 1983, in Cleveland. I've asked Simon - even he does not have a copy. So I implore ANYONE who may have taped it at the time, or knows of a source, PLEASE POST!!!
A Real The Who , ain't he ? Good Kid , not easy to folllow Pete , but on the other hand Pete and THE WHO didn't release a lot of song between 1963 & 1982... But the Kid(Simon Townsend ) continued this "Major-Part-Of-Life-Sound ! To Verify...Try " Devo- Snowball " & " The Who-Happy Jack" and listen to great evolving early 80's sound...
1st time I saw Simon do this song was at "Daltrey sings Townshend" in Cleveland at the Cavs old digs Richmond Arena...It was and I say this as a DIE HARD WHO collector the BEST SONG OF THE NIGHT!!Alright...you got me... 2nd BEST! Under A Raging Moon was #1!!
Awesome! I just wish that I was at the Who show in Fresno when he opened because the opening band got snowed in elsewhere. He's so brilliant and this is one of my all time favorite songs. Thanks for posting.
Lovely song!

Loved the "soaking up the sun" part! Somehow I could see a smile coming before it happened.

I agree, I was there also. I usually can't wait for an opening act to end but this was an exception.

I don't remember hearing that. In any case they were idiots. He was one of the best opening acts I have ever heard.
