You people should quit this "best bassist contest" and accept the fact,that John was a great musician and probably the most suitable one to play bass for The Who.
first time I ever heard the Who was this song ona Claritin commercial over 10 years ago. just a kid then but something struck me about it i vaguely remember my parents mentioning the name Tommy... then couple years later i was watching the post 9/11 concert for NYC. The Who came on and I've never seen such a crowd so ecstatic. I knew there was something special about the Baba O' Riley riff. dad told me it was the Who & 6 years later 3/2007 i saw them in concert as a high school freshman.

It also makes no sense to compare them on the same level, as they are such radically different artforms. Do you view Matisse's artwork as inferior to di Vinci? You shouldn't, because to create a peice of art to get your feelings across, no matter the medium, be it music, art, theater, it's an amazing thing. Whether you view it "worthy" of being compared to Mozart and Beethoven makes no difference. Remember, they too were the rock stars of their days. Especially Beethoven,he was the weird one:-P
To all those who view rock as a lower form of music, you should really take a music appreciation course or something. I've been a classically trained musician for ten years now, both vocal and instrumental, and there is possibly no more difficult music to perform well than American Rock. It takes every bit as much talent, if not more, for a guitarist to play in a good rock song as it does the principal violin at the NY Philharmonic. ...
@shstrumpetgurl me too, and i must say, i love all kinds of music. i really apreciate evry kind of music. thats what being a musician is about love the art asnd the collours of your songs and melodies
where are the great musicians these days? the who, stones, bowie, zeppelin, kinks....too many to nam are all like the founding fathers. the framers of the constitution were great men, genius and have never been equaled. (lincoln excepted) nobody has ever come close to those bands and it's been 40ish frikken years now. where are the new brilliant musicians?
@youmeddlingkids Get your head out of your ass. Good music is still being made. As soon as you take off your rose-tinted glasses, you will start to see.
Only The Who could write something as epic as Tommy's "Overture," with all the horn, keyboard, and guitar parts in it, then perform it live with only four people, and still make it sound so fucking cool.
@alabhaois just answered to a guy who compared it to Mozart and Beethoven !
Rock music is "nothing" compares to classical; it can be joyful and funny, but this is not true music, just for fun, and it s true, no comparison should be made
@alcore3 actually all kind of music is music, so,you cant say that this isnt true music, couse if you were a musician and music apreciator like i am, you would know that each song has its own collours and its own feelings like isee, so apreciate all kind of music with no prejugement, an dont consideer peoples arts inferior to anothers couse you woudnt like people defaming your art. peace and love my brother.god bless ya
At the Isle of Wight I think The Who proved they were heavier than Zeppelin- you can argue if you want, but listen to The Who first..... This was as hard and heavy as rock could get in 1970!
Yeah I know. But you always hear people talking about how Zeppelin _was_ heavy. This was kinda my point... And I do love Zeppelin, don't get me wrong.
@truvianni Hey Sorry for the delay in answering. The original studio album has church organ in it. It would be at about 1:27 in on this video (if they had someone layering in the church organ sidestage). Some bands who use additional instruments in the studio sometimes have additional talent onstage to play those parts.
@Chiffonade Im almost sure there is no organ in this piece perhaps in the studio album but not in what is heard here I know somethng about music I write a lot about opera and classical music and in all truth I do not hear an organ if you care to read my article please google my name "Gianni Truvianni"
I am pretty sure it was 1970 when I saw,"Tommy"..The Who did a USA tour just for the rock opera,"Tommy".At the time I was at Saratoga(in upstate N.Y.) with 34,000 people..I had to get down close because I think that Keith Moon is/was the greatest drummer,ever..and I remember loving Roger Daltry's clothes..It was a GREAT TIME:-)
No I dont mind you nominating Les for Bassist Of The Millenium. But the vote is over and John Entwistle won. It is not open for debate anymore. The vote is in. So the honorable mention is Les and Flea. Cheers mate
Perhaps you can contact Bass Player Magazine and Guitar Magazine and go back in time and change it , cause the election of John Entwistle Bassist Of The Millenium occurred in 2000 cheers
while i must say Entwistle is great, and les claypool and flea certainly deserve their honorable mentions, shouldnt geddy lee, victor wooten and john myung getr their sot at the top?
Wooten NO! but the rest yes. Wooten is boring and lacks excitement. Geddy and Roger Glover and Les and Chris Squire are my favorites and of course the BASSIST OF THE MILLENIUM, John Entwistle
Pete, keith, john and roger, what a perfect quartet, fuck the beatles, fuck the stones, the who has the best songs, however less popular they may be, a counter-current movement that led to the birth of rock as we know it, in fact, rock lasted as long as the who did, in my view, the WHO are rock, accompanied by other important stars such as hendrix and Joplin!
howard hanson had this chords in his music book. it does change with merit-- all the cheering crowd doesn't really hear the music. it does not approach mozart.
Spectacular - Nevertheless - LP/High Fidelity if you want to experience the WOW factor ! The Breadth, Spaceousness, Fidelity (not so CD/compact) would make you want to spend the money on a high fidelity system. No Kidding !
I have it to.I like townsend being interviewed at the end saying he had nothing in common with the other 3 memebers of the band.Moon is in his prime here 1968-1974 considerd the best drummer in the world.His decline started in 1977 when he moved to california.
It's so sad what happened to Moonie. I can feel like they were like brothers and when Moon self-destructed that was a hole in their hearts from then on. R.I.P. Moonie (and Ox)
fuck i hate that when people act like they knew the guy ... we know hes dead its sad .. but dont act like you knew him and dont give him any nick names
Entwhistle boring? you complete and utter idiot whoever you are!!!! John Entwhistle, was one the most talented and original bass players there ever was!!!! He was the anchor man for the who!! he was the "hendrix" of bass players!!!! R.I.P John Entwhistle
all the who videos are being disabled- pretty much across the board-- bah humbug- I have a suggestion - why don't they offer a price to buy disabled music stuff?? Stupid business managers i think- I am not going to go out and buy a DVD of most of the stuff being disabled, but I might pony up a dollar or two if they said buy it or lose it. So they lose and we lose.

It's so sad what happened to Moonie. I can feel like they were like brothers and when Moon self-destructed that was a hole in their hearts from then on. R.I.P. Moonie (and Ox)

In my opinion, I think that John was the rock of the band. The best, man!

all the who videos are being disabled- pretty much across the board-- bah humbug- I have a suggestion - why don't they offer a price to buy disabled music stuff?? Stupid business managers i think- I am not going to go out and buy a DVD of most of the stuff being disabled, but I might pony up a dollar or two if they said buy it or lose it. So they lose and we lose.

I don't understand why Entwistle was discriminated by cameras...
mastershower 2 years ago
Because he wasn't as active on animated...
He's amazing though! Long live the Ox

I saw them in San diego in 1977. They were awesome! They played a couple of Tommy songs, but they played half of Quadrophenia, and it was great.
