I am not sure what's more amazing about this vídeo. If it is too see Pete Townsend accompanied by the best jazz band you can find out there, or if it is to realize that the man is an incredibly good blues singer.
Oh my God! Sublime! I never thought Pete Townshend can sing so high class. Pete is the Greatest Rock-n-roll man in the world. Performance of great feeling and sincerity. A real ARTIST! Long life to Pete Townshend!
Brilliant mix of muso's and perfect song to do, Great Stuff, Good Old Pete Townshend sounding so great and not actually having to ablib the guitar to keep the show together but playing to a rehearsed band.
Thanks for the post. Woulda been nice if the director knew to tell the cameraman who was taking the guitar solo - LOL! Great performance by all musicians (although a jazz purist might be a put off a bit).
@hypno59 It's not Donald Dunn on bass, but the great Bernie Holland from Bishops Cleeve, Cheltenham He played with the Fanatics among others - check him out
@justinianjazz Yeah, weridly enough the info under the video says it is DAVE Holland, the legendary british jazz bassist, but a quick pause @ 5:31 reveals it to be Duck. Trust me here, it's him.
Damn...Pete's voice sounds fucking awesome! He is such a performer and always strong on stage...he puts everything into it and I love that. The whole band sounds pretty good...drums and keys were great. I'd say there was a bit too much going on at times behind him though but overall I really enjoyed it. It looked like Metheny really was too...He probably looks at Pete as a God of sorts
What a wild mix...! Thank you for posting!

Just a Fricking Kick Ass Song played by some great musicians. Petes vocals are right on the spot. Sounds more blues than jazz.
