The Who- Summertime Blues

[BeatlesManiac15]

I love John's singing, The Who is the bomb

[ravendanzig]

You gotta hear Blue Cheer's version, too. Their version is my favorite.

[1Sifting]

This shits underrated!

[juan13579run]

jajaja entwistle looks so bored...i love it

[Joester1908]

Not bad. Still prefer the original though

[abt7217tc]

@Joester1908 If you think of EC's and The Who's as two different songs, this one sounds better. I don't mean better than Eddie's, I mean better sounding to those who perfer whis style.

[Joester1908]

@abt7217tc yes you have a point. i guess what i was saying if i didnt already own the song and i looked it up on itunes i would buy the original because i like that old rock sound. i guess this is good too in this style of music

[RickisMotoGuitar]

my dad has got the LP of The Who - Live @ Leeds

[BBQFanNo1]

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.

[theclash181]

@BBQFanNo1 and its still going strong, wow lol they were wrong

[BBQFanNo1]

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.

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.

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

[BBQFanNo1]

Best Bass Player ever!!!!!!!

[gre1990]

there are no frontmen like this anymore.

[kja427]

No offence, but not even The Who could touch the original by Eddie Cochran. Sorry.

[longskimmer]

@kja427 Totally different styles and both are fantastic for their own reasons.

[BBQFanNo1]

@kja427 Two different styles for their own reasons. The Who intentionally performed the song for a different era of music. Not for the 1950s era of people.

This is my ringtone and my phone went off in class and the teacher said ''good choice of ringtone''

[yooperwholigan13]

3rd Isle of Wright Festival

[Redenzyme]

I've always wondered... who's the guy on crack to stage left? he's having quite a time!

[chloewalker8089]

monterrey?

[blackwelderadam]

@chloewalker8089 Isle of Wight

[luucasduuarte]

There is only one band better than The who playing live, it's metallica playing live (y)

[ROBSHEAN]

@luucasduuarte ...I hate to break the news to you but Metallica uses so much Pro Tools when they play live it's a complete joke. Comparing them to The Who...not even close. What you are hearing on this is live and raw. Metallica...not quite "live"

[audadvnc]

I gotta say that Keith Moon sure was an animal on drums! As for Townshend, it was not one of his better nights.

[ktel60]

Saw The Who maybe a dozen times, six with Keith, so I know whereof I speak. Pete has always been (justifiably) very humble about his guitar skills, but a great dynamic rhythym section has almost always covered, and it's always been adequate. I stand by my comments regarding Daltry, though.

[71thewho]

beats their performance at woodstock in my opinion...most of the audience wasn't stoned out of their mind

[ktel60]

Daltry was never more than a chick magnet with his shirt off. Pete couldn't play his way out of a paper bag. John reinvented the Fender bass as a melodic instrument, and Keith, well, let's just say that the world is the poorer for his loss

[Canaveral305]

@ktel60 You're a bit severe here.... most guitarists wouldn't have been able to fit with John and Keith's playing, and well, John was a very great singer, but Daltrey had a much better voice in live performances, so he sure was very important, since The Who was more of a live act. And anyway, I don't think either John or Pete (let alone Keith) would have been able to sing Pete's compositions as well as good old Roger.

[thewhochilipeppersU2]

@ktel60 What do you mean"play his way out of a paper bag?."?

[charlax7]

men at work

[MrTrajan69]

The Who greatest live band!

[Caboose1984]

I was born in the wrong decade.

[jorge1477]

...again, Moon greatest drummer... just filthy what he does back there.

[SamuBolado]

HOLY COCKLES!!!

I WASN'T SHIT BEFORE OF THIS LIVE ALBUM

musically speaking

[SkateFDRgnar]

thats true, (in a way) you cant mess up a solo, i mean its a "solo" its just you and you doin whatever you want really, sounds like ass maybe but its a solo. AND thats true too. Pete cant mess up, no matter what sound he makes or even if it DEFF. is a mess up, it just doesnt matter cause its golden, JOHN just doesnt mess up. Ever

[jhonrox]

whats funny is that keith even messed up, but when he messed up he made it sound cool and look cool :D he was just a beast drummer :D

Rip john and keith

[SstratocasterR]

bruce springsteen cover is nice too

[rajbeast]

[Boingusboingus]

Chaotically brilliant and brilliantly chaotic.

[Mariekesone]

[ramoneshipppiefan33]

this was at isle of wright right?

[lechkrasucki]

No :)

It was at the Isle of Wight :)

I f#$^#^ love that bass line

and the skeleton thing :)

[Cloudz2789]

Yep, becasue pete messed his solo up.

[smitty01209]

There's no such thing as messing a solo up.

There's also no such thing as Pete Townshend messing up.

[Cloudz2789]

Just, listen, he messed it up, BUT NOT BAD. just like, 3 secs of it...

[smitty01209]

I apologize. I couldn't hear him messing up over the kickassery coming out of my speakers.

[GGattuso1991]

@ Cloudz2789 yeah technically you can mess up what you didn't write soooooooo. yeah... Eddie Conchran would be thinking "hey he messed up" or "nice improvement" but yeah you can't mess up live. it just sounds good.

[Tom123collins]

fucking incredible.

[sxlfkta]

That was an electrifying, utterly spectacular rendition, for I could keenly feel that awesome power and surge of energy emanating from the stage as it shot outward, permeating the entire stadium. The Who rocks!!! Taylor from SQ Mass.

[maidenrocks98]

awesome!

[AwesomePossum130]

John's costume is awesome, great song

[TheWho1231]

Love this song they rock on this set man.
