  • GO KEITH! GO!!!

  • This is the best black n' white drumming that I have ever seen.

  • @Minacious well said....

  • Great song from the band. Go Pete Townshend!

  • At 3:01 it seems Rodger starts to chuckle seeing Keith working without the cymbal that was lost in that tussle .

  • 1:43 - Keith didnt like Roger at all in the beginning, therefore he had to get this "goddamn ride cymbal outta tha way"

  • @telebluesful Dont watch it then mate.

  • 2:11 "Bye bye Rickenbacker .. no it's okay, I have another one. *whistles*".

  • At 2:06 Pete turns his amps up to 11 for the "little extra"...........

  • Moon is just so fascinating to watch. I wish Daltrey would get the hell out of the way.

  • @badmuddafadda No way. My sweet babboo is the cutest in the group!

  • Collectors: I have two virgin UNUSED tickets to a 1965 The Who show, put on by the now extinct White Front stores in the San Fernando valley. Bids now being taken.

  • @hkyoutoob that´s fine. Sell a time machine as well?

  • リッケンバッカー。。もったいないなあ・・、。でも大好きでーす­^^♪♪

  • waaa que jovenes estaban, rock on!

  • This is so cool! i was 17 in 65 and didn't know of the Who until a few yrs later at Woodstock and with the release of TOMMY I think keith rules ~ thank god for the 70's hair styles for roger ~ in '65 I was into Zappa, 4 Tops, Byrds AND YARDBIRDS!

  • @ConquerTHEgreat221 lol the earth does not have a face. it is made up of land and sea. there is no eyes,nose, mouth ext ext.

  • So this is a Jazz & Blues festival. . .

  • @MrV1C7OR they were mods so they sort of qualified.........

  • these guys are all about the music, no distractiosn

  • Even Daltrey was amazed (at 3:00) at how Keith was able to instantly resurrect the song back from the chaotic interlude. He looks back at Keith then laughs in disbelief.

    Great Post!

  • @loudhvx My Roger is so precious! <3

  • @loudhvx As only he cutely can!

  • When i watch this kind of videos ( of the best band ever) i just want to step in a f*cking time machine and go there to watch a concert where they show you how to make real music!

  • @18ofmeer Getin the queue bud,I'm shot gun with that time machine!ha! Never get bored of this performance. Wish I was there in the 60's,i'd prob be in my 60's,but who cares?

  • Rock drum had such a huge potential of musical expression like this in 1965.

  • Wow moon actually using a hi-hat! :O

  • @ponyman13 Yeah I was like whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aat.

  • Just some kids, but they're alright!

  • The greatest rock 'n' roll band that every rock 'n' rolled.

  • Bonham, Moon and Peart = drumlegends

  • Keith Moon and Jon Hiseman!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • moon is the best

  • KIETH MOON!

  • Comment removed

  • Of course the 10 black beuties he took before going on didn't hurt.Look at his eye's good speed back then..

  • watch?v=46CNp89_52Y

  • poor rickenbacker

  • Moon!

  • @Wrightwasright Best drummer on the planet.Look at him here roger turns around several times saying this kid is not human. Watch 3.00 mark roger laughs turning around .

  • @TheWhoLive73 Yea, that look back and then laughs, fuckin Moon just killing it, bloody murder, The Who, Best of the Best.

  • Oh for another Moon......

    He sure beats the crap out of these modern day so called drum machines!!!!

    Instead of battering his beautiful Vox AC100

    amps using his guitars he should have

    used feed-back techniques instead.

  • I love how halfway through the song townshend just like " I don't like this guitar" and he takes it of and tosses it then picks up another one and starts tuning while the rest of them go on with the song. Lol!

  • Can you imagine being there live?

  • what song

  • How did Kieth moon die?

  • @packerbacker94

    Choked on his vomit, like Hendrix and Bon Scott.

  • I've just read a comment off someone on Oscar/Majestics, their version is better than The Who's studio original ! .. It's good, but..iLOL

  • Not actually "LIVE'' is it? Cymbal sounds at 1:02 but Moon isn't actually hitting any cymbals!!!

  • I like the moment where pete throws his guitar and his like "SHIT DID I HIT THE ROADIE"

  • at 3:11 keith is regretting knocking that cymbal over

  • Without a doubt, Moon is one of the best drummers to ever play. God rest his soul.

  • This performance is absolute CHAOS!! In 1965 the Beatles were becoming a studio band and the Stones gigs were but very boring (the only moving part was Jagger). The Who was absolutely wild at this time. They smile at each other because they baldly can hear each other. This is one of the few shows with Moon wearing a hi-hat and A single bass drum. Entwhistle plays a vintage Danelectro Longhorn Bass (.ca 1959) which he hab purchased to play the "My Generation" solos.

  • where can i find a sheet music version of the drums in this

  • What song is this?

  • @1danny1995 its anyhow,anyway,anywhere - proper mod anthem. How good is this clip, moonie mayhem - always love the early who, so raw and brilliant and exciting - drumming is incredible.Original punk attitude..

  • @HardcoreJungFunk this clip is awesome and yah the drumming is incredible love this clip.

  • @1danny1995 yes mate, if you like who stuff from around this time (65) and dont know about them type in "the goods gone", "much too much" from the my generation album, also try "circles"- other ace tunes

  • fam_buergisser@bluewin.ch

  • Pete just drills that Ricky and grabs another one, holy crap!

  • I love you keith moon!!! greatist rock star to walk the face of the planet...

  • Nobody thinks of the WHO when they were creating anarchy back in '65. They were the first punks, in my opinion.. Later

  • :50 haha the ox:)

  • this is the best "shreds" video i've seen yet

  • Oh Moonie..the best drummer ever in one of the best bands ever. I love watching him get pissed at Daltrey for fucking with his cymbal at 1:40 so he throws it down. Never knew what these guys were gonna do maybe beat the shit out of each other. Punks before punk was even thought of.....The 'Orrible Oo

  • @1984ledzep

    he was a proper legend, the drums are not just keeping time when Moon plays, it's kinda like an extra guitar. He's playing his own melody, just making it up there and then. and how old is he there about 18. Read a biography of Moon and in the early they hated each other and regulaly kicked the shit out of each other with Daltrey apparently being a bit handy was sacked for 3 days until he promised to stop acting the c***

  • Keith moon's not only the best drummer because of his talent and skill (which would still make him hands down best) but he's also well known for his innovation of the instrument (he plays Fills like no one else does) and in my opinion he plays kinda like the lead guitarist rather than a drummer who just keeps the beat. He hardly ever provides solely the back beat a lot of the time he adds flare and style and most of the time no measure is the same as the next.

  • Ok, I'm not a drummer, but being that this song seems to be live, can someone explain to me what's going on at 1:02, how does he do that?

  • @FFGG22E often the people who put together the footage don't do it too well. I have plently of music dvds where things are like this, but I know the band is playing live.

  • Greatest drummer on the planet...

  • Smashing a Rickenbacker should be criminal. Just fucking stupid

  • is it just me or was any english guitar player in the 60's playing rickenbacker?

  • @colt547, George Harrison played a twelve string, John Lennon played a black Rickenbacker (painted over the original blond finish).

  • Maybe their worst selling album is there best - The Who Sellout. Side one is just one of the best ever .. from Armenian city in the sky to I Can see for miles.

    They wrote many good songs but I never want to hear Who are You or Squeeze box Or don't get fooled again. I propose that when Rodger sang in a softer, sweeter voice - as he does on Who Sellout, that he was at his best, imo.

    His rock and roll voice just gets on my nerves. Now send me hate mail..

  • @11xzxzxz

    I couldn't agree with you more...

    I think The Who's first 3 albums are fucking stellar..."A Quick One" is probably my favorite, but "Sell Out" is a great album...psychedelia infused 'mod' rock!

    The Who truly became terrible...especially after Keith Moon died, but I can't tolerate anything by them after "Live at Leeds". "Who's Next" is surely a great album, but I hate it.

    Daltrey sounded great early on, as he did later - I just don't like it.

  • @asmorgan88 Yeah that is just how I feel "Who's next is a great album, but I hate it". Everything you wrote I agree with.  One other question : while Pete Townsend is wind-milling his guitar, he looks so cool but he could be adding a few notes or tuning his guitar. Creativity and style once in a while suffocates music. Hey did you see the High Numbers, the who before the who, they do a nice Smokey Robinson "I got to dance to keep from crying" .. on youtube. Have a great day.

  • @11xzxzxz

    HAHAH - The windmill is also one of rock's greatest tricks, as Pete never (intentionally) struck any of the strings with his strumming hand - the sound comes from his LEFT hand that was essentially doing repetitive hammer-ons to the chords or whatever. He wasn't STRUMMING on those windmills.

    While he was a great showman, & icon, yeah...sometimes it's a bit much & does detract from the quality...I always felt that, but Moon & Entwistle make up for it! The High Numbers! Great stuff!

  • @asmorgan88 Thanks for the info .. I really never noticed but then I don't watch the Who much but the tribute to them is only 24/7 on Vh1. What you say makes great sense. I really don't run into anyone who agrees with me and antagonize lots but it's nice to agree and wish I could more often but I will not lie on youtube (but, sure, in real life..ha). You are very sharp.

  • @11xzxzxz

    HAHAH - that tribute on VH1 with fucking Pearl Jam & The Foo Fighters is terrible!

    Footage of the early Who is definitely worth watching. Try to see the film "The Kids Are Alright" - there's a lot of their older garbage on there, but there's a hell of a lot of good early shit too.

    I hate how upset & emotional people get when you say anything less than worshiping about bands/musicians - especially Zeppelin fans, holy fuck!

  • @asmorgan88 Yeah Eddie Vedder has not yet written a great song but once he did write coherent lyrics on "Wish List" (good song) and he should only be at tributes because he has a great voice and does great versions of Last Date and Leaving Her and Phil Ochs songs. Yeah Led Zep stole countless lyrics and melodies .. really the biggest music thieves in history, less the the time Dylan actually stole a boatload of blues records from a friend's home. At least the critics were right on Zep.

  • @asmorgan88 Just to be fair, Entwistle reinvented the bass as much as Moon did the drums. So lay off the Who - man it is all about attitude and nobody commands a stage as Roger and Pete. See I can shovel drool with the best of them.

  • MOONIE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Yes, Keith was 19 years old in this video. His 20th birthday would be later that month (August). This song is one of their least appreciated (their second single I believe).

  • @dergel55 I thought Keith was born in 1946

  • Listen 2michaelriser1 the only thing that sucks here is you sucking your dick.

    You obviously have absolutely NO taste in music!! go listen to miley cirus fag

  • at 1.33 you can really see the hatred between keith and roger

  • I was 5 years old starting kindergarten. Even then I was a latent Who fan. What year did Keith 86 the hi hats....didn't need em.

  • smash it pete!

  • Damn I cant believe there was a band like this 50yrs ago. These guys make The Beatles look like the Back Street Boys of the time

  • I can watch Keith Noon all Day!!!! That guy was awesome!!

  • That was probably added when this was shown on television for effect.

  • Even in 65', before the decade was fully underway, these guys were doing there thing.

  • In 1965 when ever the wearing of T-shirt onstage was sign of ultimate rebelly, this kind of performance was clearly pretty shock. But possible in jazz festival because jazz was even dirtier music then.

  • Thankfully, Keith Moon didnt listen to Rush! Aw, I kid the proggers!

  • to me,rock is before and after of the who,they revolutionized all rock, in attitud and music,keith are and was a big influence of to many big drummers, just like townsend on guitar,jhon on bass and roger on vocals and as a front man, just a great great band

  • they set the aggressive tone for future rock/metal bands

  • I haven't seen this performance in its entirety until now. They didn't have very good live recording technology in 1965.

  • Keith Moon used to go to The Rocky Horror Picture Show when it first started on a stage. He would bring each cast member a bottle of whiskey, and that's how they'd know he was there. He'd set the whiskey on the stage before each show. Food for thought.

  • keith moon is a straight up monster on the drums

  • drumer is beast

  • Neil Peart, drummer for Rush once said he would listen to Keith Moons drums and play along with him. No wonder he rose to be best drummer in the world!

  • id have to say Moon is just a tad better than Neil...its very VERY close though

  • moon revolutionized rock drumming as we know it. DEFINETLY THE BEST OF ALL TIME.lol

  • @stabbyman3 Neil never played like this limp-wristed...........

  • @stabbyman3 Did I mention he played like this with fewer drums that Neil?

  • that is the truest thing i ever heard. moon and peart (along with bill bruford) are in my opinion the best> no rock drummers can touch"em>

  • @michaelriser1 too bad his band sucks balls

  • @ccfire63 This band sucks?!?! You obviously dont know what the fuck you are talking about or are some deaf dumb and blind kid, go play pinball..asshole

  • Roger was a sexy animal, and still is for that matter. LONG LIVE ROCK. LONG LIVE THE WHO

  • @clerical12 Always will be sexy, my sweet Rog!

  • ive met roger. so goddamn cool.

  • awesome !

  • Roger was one handsome son of a bitch.

  • i love the who..seen them many times going back to 72..what a great no bs band..the perfect 4 guys..great songwriting and just smashing there way through the tunes..punk before there was punk.."whos left" from the 60s..thank god not much..pete and roger and zak do a great job..long live rock.

  • keith is fucked and is playing amazing! one of rocks greatest. :)

  • Cool Danelectro Longhorn Bass!!!

  • one of the greatest rock bands ever,,and music with attitude without wanting to hurt someone,,we were the mods

  • 1:38 hahahaha.. keith is like "don't play with my cymbal!!!" awesome! thx, Anna

  • amazine!

  • Look at keith tear up that little kit, now that's impressive!

  • Keith should have thrown Roger out of the way.

  • Roger's laughing because he's forgotten the words.

  • @flimbambo Poor baby.

  • OMG Keith <33

    And Roger can't stop laughing :D

  • the whole thing was dubbed but the most important thing was after pete chucked his rickenbacker over the amp the horrified look on his face. like he was some ones puppet. first hand i have been on stage and all you can do is try to bury the drummer with more amp- till yu go deaf

  • Keith Moon is fucking amazing, Pete is retarded for throwing that beautiful guitar like that, The Who are fucking insane!!!

  • Moon was the best.

  • Moon whas king

  • sorry fans but all the screaming girls woo hooing was dubbed on afterwards.!

  • LOL listen to them screaming... I wanna scream with them!!

  • "The who" would make a great subject for the next "Rockband" video game.

  • Awesome stuff!

    When the Beatles were singing "I want to hold your hand," the Stones were singing "I want to get in your pants" ... And the Who were singing "I'm going to burn your fucking house down."

    It doesn't get any more rock and roll than this.

  • Also, The Who were setting the standards for real rock; feedback, volume and trashing gear.

  • lmao

  • @klaptongroovemaster

    agreed.this is the first punk rock,plain and simple

  • @klaptongroovemaster well put!!

  • @klaptongroovemaster

    I couldn't have said it better myself.

  • @klaptongroovemaster This is only the lyrics, not the rock and roll in all point of view.

  • Moon is on fire!

  • The best drummer I've seen so far.

  • He was nicknamed "the white tornado".

  • Keith was nicknamed that?

  • Probably just for this performance.

  • omg he's using a danelectro bass

  • Danelectro Longhorn model.

  • Keith Moon is, hands down, the greatest drummer of all time...

  • @asmorgan88 lets not get ahead of ourselfs now and forgret the great lord bonzo

  • @goonyougoodthing

    HAHAH - I'll go ahead & respect your opinion...

    But, John Bonham is the biggest Keith Moon fan of all time, & watching footage of Bonzo, you can see that he clearly not only wanted to play just like Moon, but look like he did behind the kit as well...

    How old is Moon here? 19 years old or some shit? You've got to be kidding me...to play like he's doing throughout this tune alone, let alone all the other shit they have out, at 19 is ridiculous.

    Keith Moon is the best ever.

  • @asmorgan88 you are clearly one of the most respectable and educated people on the internet and you have passed the test

  • @goonyougoodthing

    Fuck yourself, fuckstick.

  • @asmorgan88 Tony Williams liked Keith Moon!!!

  • @scarfacejosh123

    That's cool - he played on a bunch of good shit.

  • @asmorgan88 bonham was far better

  • @angusbaird1

    Bonham is Keith Moon's biggest fan...just watch footage of him, he even tries to act like him.

    Who at age 18 could play drums like Moon? Nobody.

    Keith's drumming was, and still is, the best rock & roll drumming ever.

    Led Zeppelin is a far better band, musically & commercially, but Keith Moon, John Entwistle, & Roger Daltrey were all better at what they did than Plant, JPJ, & Bonzo.

  • @asmorgan88 Neil Peart is better than Keith by far

  • @grossdale1 hell no... there is no passion in his drumming... its just a lot of technical stuff but they both kick ass
