yes - i agree with these, you are a good song stylist! my background is in local musical theatre and an aspiring composer-by-ear who collects a wide variety of musics. a great solo version of a favorite who song - i had a lot of fun singing along to fill in all those clean harmonies of the classic townsend arrangement. peace!
I have put my bass down for along time. But since i always thought the Ox was gods gift to bass players. I know I will be jamming to your channel for awhile to come. No reason to keep it in the case anymore. The callus is back on my finger tips trying to keep up with that opening riff. Great work and thank you.
At first you just seemed aah ok i really thougt you were gonna suck. Then you like got into this groove and started whalin' ! Really. I have not seen better.
Your voice is really unique and very good to sing rock (n' roll) with. This is one of the best covers I've ever heard here on youtube. You don't sing perfectly but you sing with soul and that's real special. I'm a fan!
@Eddie629 i like it. i'm trying to get my band to cover it, i'm the drummer so my part is easy. im trying to figure out all the intro instruments. ob viously a guitar and bass, do you think the "doo dee doo dee doo dee " part was done on a mini moog or some other synth? great job!
Amazing cover Eddie629. Not one of the more popular Who songs but a classic, nonetheless. Your voice really holds every note & the guitar playing is A+
Awesome cover - but personally, I think this is The Who's most over-rated song. It's great to hear with 20,000 next to you. I've done that 3 times...that would be 60,000 people I think. Great audience participation song.
Yeah i've seen them quite a few times too...I was at Rich Stadium in Buffalo in '82....I believe there were 85,000 people there that day !! Thanks Tom !
Eddie, this is excellent. I agree with the comment below-your licks/timing are amazing-so intuitive. You craft the song on the guitar. Really enjoy your stuff. And it just doesnt get any better than Gord, Beatles and The Who my man.
OH YEAH!!! Another WHO song!!!!!!!! Love it, Great job. You really get into this one. This goes to my favs and Great Music playlist. 5 stars! YOU Better You Bet!
I mean it man. Your rythmin skill and precison is amazing brother. So many guitarist who are tachnical scale wizards couldn't even scratch the surface of your rythmic skills. I've been around a few years, LOL, and you're one of the most accopmplshed rythmic players I've ever seen. And a downright humble, kindred man. Keep the faith and teaching us all!
Oh, man, that was really cool - you can really understand Pete Townshends playing - in your strumming - great job, not to mention, I saw exactly what chords you were playing - man, did Pete write amazing stuff.
STOMP that foot, Eddie! :-) As Tommy Emmanuel would say, if you don't move, you ain't got the groove! That sure looks like a well-used Fender acoustic, you can see where the varnish is worn from your arm... I looked at the back of the neck on TE's guitar and it has NO VARNISH LEFT at all! :-) Your voice is ideal for this music, great cover, man! :-) ***** from the bigdood!
great job, man! your voice is very different from daltrey's, but it's got excellent features, and gives the song a different touch... loved it! congratulations!
i agree with the previous post re: voice, a surprise at first (being so used to daltry), and, it seems to me, slightly shakey (neil young reference) but man, once it all gets rollin', i found myself singing along...
nice work on those tricky chord changes while maintaining rhythm as melody...especially the neo-baroque power chord breakdown going into the last verse/chorus...
It sounds like your voice is too rough with cigarettes lol. But, nonetheless, great job.

It's too bad you can't see me, but I got goosebumps all over me, amazing song, amazing guitarr play, amazing singing and aaamaazing feeling.
I often get cranky and annoyed by people who are making covers with The Who songs, bands like Limp Bizkit (Behind The Blue Eyes) and other people.
Altough, listening to you...it makes me happy! Really good, keep up the excellent job man!
Don't forget to post new song and vids!
