  • I FIND IT FASCINATING HOW THE BRITS RETURNED "AMERICAN" MUSIC INTO SOMETHING NEW IN THE '60S. WHETHER IT WAS R&R, BLUES, OR FOLK, THEY BROUGHT IT TO LIFE IN NEW AND DIFFERENT WAYS AT JUST THE RIGHT TIME. EITHER SOMETHING IN THE AIR OR WATER PERHAPS. THANX FOR GOOD MUSIC CHOICES!

  • Un disque fort, destructeur - un des meilleurs Live que j'ai jamais entendu !!!!!!!!

  • The only thing I can say is...there's 5 people out there who dislike this????

  • It´s Hard To Find High Quality Music Of The Who On Youtube

  • I´m A Big The Who Fan Happy New Year From Sweden

  • Pure rock punch and raw tone. My favorite version of this killer classic rock tune.

  • Dat bass.

  • The big three of British Rock are The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and The Who. The Who are my personal favourite of the three.

  • in Rock and Roll England>USA, everything else England<USA...... just saying

  • i'm a nirvana fan from 15 years old and even i think that the who is awesome

  • Keith Moon was the best fucking drummer in history , period . There are some close to him .... but Keith gets the cigar !

  • Does it get any better than this ? This is the Who at their best ... loud and raw and damn near perfect ! dudehorner hit the nail on the head . I miss 'em .

  • Great version. But my favorite is the Blue Cheer's

  • best cover of the song

  • The BEST live album EVER!

  • @rattshewants - name one band 'today' that "more often than not," covers the Who's version. it's a fine version but A. Don't know of a lot of bans covering this song, LOL and B. Please give me an example of a band that said, "Gee, we're off to cover The Who's Live At Leeds version of this song.

  • If I were putting together a "Supergroup" I'd probably just say "Give me The Who from 1969 to 1978 please. Thank you."

  • turn it uuuuup

  • @rattshewants money you dudes make me laugh, john entwhistle certainly great didn't invent 'growl' singing, lol and whatever the fuck that (is). especially as this song came out in the late 50s and is NON original.

  • @caesarcerf Though the Eddie Cochran song is not an original, certainly The Who took it to a whole new level of 'maximum r&b' in their version. When rock bands cover it today more often than not they'll do this version over the original. It's like getting on Cream for covering "Crossroads" because it wasn't an original. But there's no comparison between the two. (Not like David Lee Roth's so-called 're-make' of 'California Girls' which may as well been a karaoke!)

  • @Rattshewantsmoney Sorry but John Entwistle did invent gorwl singing which is now popular in hte death metal scene. Roger Waters and Jim Morrison are responisble for scream singing. EVERYTHING started in the sixties.

  • 4 people may have found the cure which all the rest we're searching

  • @Rattshewantsmoney I didn't say I like screamo, nor was I serious about them being pioneers of it. But anyways, what makes it so gay exactly and who gave you the right to judge people? Do you think you're better than me because you wouldn't have said that? Or do you just think you're better than everyone?

  • 当時リーズ大学が熱狂で炎上、THE WHO "サマー・タイム・ブルース"~ロックライヴの必携盤、これも­ってないと馬鹿にした!~恐るべしムーン

  • Pioneers of Screamo.

  • Apparently my Dad bought one of the first 500 hundred copies of this album because his album featured the band's Woodstock Festival contract, which was only sold within the first 500 copies.

  • well im gonna raise a fuss im gonna raise a hollar, about working all summer just to try to earn a dollar ;)

  • @plays4wtfdblds96 So easy to relate to

  • Funny how Tony Randall,Frank Sinatra, and Bing Crosby all made predictions in 1955 that Rock And Roll was going to be completely dead in 15 years.

    15 years later Rock And Roll developed new better than ever from it's roots.

  • @BBQFanNo1 And this is 15 years from 1955, too.

  • The Americans may have invented Rock And Roll, but the British perfected it by modifying it.

  • @BBQFanNo1 PFFFFFFFFFT

  • @BBQFanNo1 but its still American don't you forget it :P

  • In my opinion it is no accident that John Entwistle in all voting sources has been ranked as the Greatest Rock Group Bass Player ever in history.

  • i used to have the album with borris the spider on it, but i can't remember which album that was! this is terrible! i don't like not being able to remember things.... :)

  • @m1kewithaone The studio version of Boris the Spider was on "A Quick One". :)

  • @Blaze1289 well, i just don't remember that. is that the name of an album?? and yes i was doing a lot of drugs back then..... : )

  • @m1kewithaone Yeah, that's the name of the album. "A Quick One", released in 1966.

  • @Blaze1289 0h no wonder! sheesh, i hadn't heard of the who till around 1969! in 1966 i was only 10 and listening to the troggs, wild thing, and lot's of other stuff, it was a very good year for music! i just don't remember hearing the who on the radio till 1969 woodstock album, then i saw them live in 1970 with the who's next album! awsome album! i didn't hear boris tthe spider till 1974 and so, it must have been on a friend's album, ok, thanx for that!!

  • i am singing this song as a cover tomorrow(:

  • @icantfixme good luck bud

  • @Rikk303 Thanks! I rocked it(: I should put me/my bands concert footage up!

  • @icantfixme Brill. Takes guts to carry off a Daltrey vocal. Kudos your way and post the footage

  • wasn't "bois the spider" on this album??

  • @m1kewithaone Entwistle was the spider whatever that means. I remember buying "Live at Leeds" witl all the paperwork and sh*t. Not very iPod huh?

    

  • @Rikk303 yaeh, i don't actually have an ipod.....

  • @AlecEntwistle oh, ok thanks. well it wasn't on the "who's next album so it must be on one in between those two. hey, did you notice your last name? it reminds me of someone that used to be in the "who". what a coincidence!

  • believe Allman Bros at Filmore and Eat a Peach best live album

  • @saltlakesam That is up to individual's music style taste. One large group of people love British Rock like the Who and Led Zeppelin.The other large group of people love American Southern Fried Rock like the Allman Brothers and Lynyrd Skynyrd.

  • RIP KEITH MOON AND JOHN ENTWHISTLE :(

  • The Who does a RAGIN' version of "Summertime Blues".

  • Ox was a bass player for The Who? Nah, he was a *bass guitarist.* No way would he be relegated to rhythm alone. This is still one of my favorite Pete solos ever, too.

  • pura leggenda......

  • p-90s rule the world of tone

  • @tonewall1 hmm...........p-90'a here?........was Pete using a lesPaul Delux...or maybe a Jr??...instead of the usual SG?.........I didn't know of SG's to have anything other than standard humbuckers.....

  • The astounding Keith Moon right before Kit Lambert shut him down on Who Next.

  • No, it's an Eddie Cochran cover. Blue Cheer also did a great hard-rock cover.

  • No, its an Eddie Cochran cover. The Blue Cheer also covered it.

  • This is good. But..

    Wasn't this a steal from Blue Cheer?

  • @klepzo Actually, Eddie Cochran did the original. Blue Cheer covered this song in 1968.

  • the best version period

  • Just bludgeons you into submission, superb!

  • これも70年代ロックの幕開けだったナ!~THE WHO"サマータイム・ブルース""ライヴ・アット・リーズ­"~キース・ムーンの暴れること!~高校2年か!?

  • Comment removed

  • This is the BEST version of "Summertime Blues".

    THE WHO OWNS!!!

  • sweet lord! keith moon!

    

  • blue cheers version is better in every way possible, i still love the who,

  • The only thing I don't like about this album is the jams in Magic Bus and My Generation. I think their boring. :/ OTHERWISE, it is amazing!

  • This album is absolute perfection, and part of it's beauty relies on its simplicity. No effects, no parafernalia, just three instruments and Roger Daltrey's voice. But the purity of the product, the editing, the sound, the talent are amazing. It sounds so much better than thousands of studio album including bands as U2. It's pure Rock' Roll and this song is my favorite. A sample: from 1:45 to 2:20 is one of the most equilibrated solos in Rock history: they play together not against each other.

  • @carmaj156 dude you just made me want to get this album!!!!

  • @FunkKlock Great, it's critically considered the best live album in history, btw.

  • WHO ARE YOU ? THE WHO LIVE AT LEEDS ・・・・GREATEST LIVE!

  • one idiot out of 80,000 aint bad

  • @dudehorner Now 4 out of 200K.......lol........z

  • Comment removed

  • There actually were never any crackling noises - it was all a joke

  • why wouldnt you like this

  • It used to be "Crackling noises OK ... do not correct".

    Now? "Crackling noises .... have been corrected".

    Ahh, digital music ....

  • @EdTracey347 That's because all these younger cats with their MP3's are all OCD about that kind of stuff!!!

  • u can download this on Rock band 1,2,&3

  • No dice son u gotta worka' late

  • kick ass, take names

  • I remember the day I brought this album home back in '72.

  • people are allowed to dislike things if they want and they should be allowed to express that and not be ridiculed by everybody. This is a good song though in my subjective experience. Yes, that is how i feel about this.

  • @intothetopcorrupt

    what  year is this concert from ?

  • @LegPains

    1970

  • @intothetopcorrupt i share a similar subjective experience

  • There is a wonderful article by James Woods in the current New Yorker (of all places) about Moonie's drumming on this. Bonzo rocks (which is as much in dispute as the roundness of the Earth), but Moonie was not on this planet.

  • This has been one of my favorite songs for decades. Great explosive classic rock.

  • @m3pilot86 Some idiot probably did in response to Krutter123's comment. Anyway, this version of "Summertime Blues" kicks ass, as does the rest of "Live at Leeds"!

  • What moron disliked this?

  • my favorite live album- to quote Almost Famous: it's incenderiary

  • blue cheers version was pretty hot too

  • Doesn't anyone know the dislike curse?

    If you mention that a video has no dislikes, so dick presses it just for shits and giggles (I am not kidding)

  • @TheNEWfilmfanatic99 Woops, my bad

  • 0 dislikes!!!!!!!! honestly though, who would?

  • masters

  • genius

  • The hard rock version of this classic. The Who totally kick ass. I like the original and the Blue Cheer version, but this is probably my favorite take on this song.

  • mindeloman  your absolutely right!!

  • 1:30 = The Who with special guest the Cookie Monster!

  • You can sum up all of Moon's beautiful playing from 1:47 to 1:49.

  • this is such a coverable song you can do pretty much anything anything with it and it will come out great

  • It sounds as good now as it did when it first came out.

  • I love every single version of this song.

  • though the who will always be my favorite band,some may be forgetting or have never heard another fine live album..rock n,roll animal;lou reed with a fine collection of hired guns backing him up.(still prefer the who../.but if your still reading my crap your wasting precious rock n, roll time.

  • @fullmooney1 Rock and Roll Animal was good, but I prefer the original Velvet Underground.

  • mp3iffy works again wooohoooo awesome - google mp3iffy

  • best version of this song by anyone, hands down

  • This the BEST version by The Who!!!

  • Comment removed

  • Perfect song for The Who....saying to heck with it all....

  • The Who greatest live band in the world!

  • Don't forget Humble Pie's Performance: Rockin' The Fillmore! that shouldbe in the Top Ten at least. Wahooooo for da "Ooo!"

  • The guy at the end of each chorus sounds like Lemmy :)

  • That guy is John Entwistle, who is also rockin' on the bass. =)

  • @MultiFunkmeister its john entwistle doing that

  • @niggerbutcher666 hey, man!! long time no see. haha i remember you. you were the stupid little asshole who was saying that pete townshend kidnapped ur son and did god knows what with him. haha i think it's really cool that your answering questions about the who. goddamn ur a little prick. lol keep in touch. and change ur name. the north won the civil war

  • @GaganB92 Just because my name is Niggerbutcher doesnt mean im a redneck, you stereotyping bitch boy

  • @niggerbutcher666 ur right. haha im getting a lesson about incorrect stereotyping from a guy named niggerbutcher. Hey Why dont you tell us all the story about how pete townshend kidnapped ur son? that was a good one. I think like 1 person believed it, and then he turned 7.

  • I agree best live album ever.....

  • Judy at Carnegie Hall = A+++++++++++++++

  • Best live album ever.

  • Absofuckinglutely!

  • Common kids... you're alright!

    Ramones inspired!!!!

  • where in your list?

    Try #ONE

    This is the #1 LIVE album of all time!

    Rightly so...

  • I'm 23

  • 0:06 - 3:27 is the very best part of this song.

  • @mindeloman you got a problem with @3:28?

  • @Bobsmellslikeyourmom I do. Cause that's when it ends.

  • @mindeloman 3.28 is rather good too!

  • pete towshend owns

  • I love this album amazing live album but my personal favorite live album of all time is Frank Zappa's album, Zappa in New York, the best recent live album is John mclaughin and Chick Coreas live album Five Peace Band

  • IM THIRTEEN

    shit caps lock again

  • I ARE 11 AND I LURVE THE WHO LOLOLOLOL

  • same here im eleven and im a great who fan!!!!!!!

  • i'm 23.

  • Why lol? that's not funny

  • simpley one of the best rNr band ever

  • The Who are in my personal Top Ten list.I'm just not sure where in the list they'll wind up.

  • Great bass in this one!!

  • Great bass in all of The Who sings! :D

  • simply the best

  • who

  • who?

  • the jimi hendrix experience, cream and the who: the most inovate and strogest bands in the 60s

  • id also have to add bands like the stooges and the mc5 and ccr and the doors and jefferson airplane

  • and probably in history,, for there genres, and others, all three amazing

  • @karlofreespirit ive always wondered which of those three was the loudest?

  • @karlofreespirit after you figure out how to spell innovative & strongest, you might wanna spell some other bands names "Beatles & The Rolling Stones, Pink Floyd,Yes, & early CTA..

  • @MOSKII58 agreed lol

  • @karlofreespirit I would throw in Blue Cheer too, they were the most under rated

  • @karlofreespirit All great bands, but the stones and the beatles were way more innovative than cream, and easily as inovative as hendrix if not more. The 3 greatest and more inovative bands of the 60's are the beatles, the stones, and the who.

  • @BeatleFloydZeppelin Jimi Hendrix Experience is number four all time!

  • @karlofreespirit mainly because the bands had the three most innovative guitarists of all time (Clapton, Hendrix, Townshend)

  • @TasOMW jimmy page blows those 3 away with a sneeze.. well townshend is just.. cool i think he page, and blackmore are the best but clapton .. ?!?!?!?!?!!? hendrix yeah i know u must like him to like music but i dont... sue me i dont care xD

  • @bushokjew00t Dickie Peterson fucking rocks this man.

  • @karlofreespirit dont forget the velvet underground

  • @karlofreespirit and CCR

  • @karlofreespirit You missed a few. The Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, Bob Dylan

  • @karlofreespirit and The Doors.

  • Awesome vocals here, but the strength of the original lies in the iconic riff. If I had to choose, I'd still pick the original.

  • Plus Eddie's "low voice" cracks me up. "I'd like to help you son, but you're too young to vote." Still funny after all these years.

  • Yeah im 13 and this stuff is great "No dice sin but ya gotta work late"

  • Remember: Crackling noises are o.k. Do not correct.

  • @masonbarge that isn't eddie cochran's low voice, this is the who's version, i think it's John singing that line, unless you are referring to the original in which case i think its still not Eddie its one of the other bandmates doin that line..

  • got a sound in my head that could wake up the dead like...

  • I'm a great fan of both Who and Cochran, and while this is an absolutely amazing version I must still say I prefer the original, which to me is one of best rock 'n' roll songs ever.

    But I can certainly see how many people consider this version better.
