The Who - Fortune Teller (RARE) - Live at The Fillmore East 1968

[retrograder22]

sounds like the ox sings more on this one, thanks for the post!

[FukushimaSurfer]

Not a bad cover of Benny Spellmans original but only a cover all the same! Not quite Maximum R 'n' B. Which for anyone under twenty five doesn't mean Rhythm & Bass. You kids have got it half right., but F**k the bass , you need Blues for the good of your soul and to dance the night away. Not MDMA and just waving your arms to a Bass thump!

When townshend says fortune teller at the start he sounds like forrest gump.

[GuitarJr44]

This is a Stones Song from around 1967. They did it much faster and better.

[robin14669]

@GuitarJr44 Rolling Stones version of Fortune Teller was already recorded in 1963.

[Kelly14UK]

Anyone remember The Who doing Substitute/ Finland '67- because it was nastier than the Pistols' version. They got ahead of The Stooges with the sound?

[gg136800yyk]

this is not 1968..... its 67

[tfoldager]

thanks for the recording I had never heard it befor. Its amazing how the who can play a song multiple ways and make each version sound like its a diffrent song love it

[fujicity]

Thanks!!

[mullinator7]

I like slower, Leeds version, this is a wicked early version

[sleazyweaz]

Wish I could have seen the pre-Who's Next, pre-Tommy Who...just once.

[friendstacy]

this is the music that gave birth to punk rock. today's plastic pop stars just wish they could be half as cool as The Who!!

[alec12]

exactly

[fatgreenwoody]

@friendstacy if only everyone thought that, the music world would be so much better. god bless us who fans

[lennonsbigfan]

could you upload the rest

[excudebat]

first league!

[TheWholigans]

I'm not a big lover of this song either way, but -if- I had to pick..I'd choose the Live at Leeds version.

[luksmr88]

I agree, Actually I think that Leeds version of "Fortune Teller" is the best one.

[JasonBonitati]

Same here! The Leeds version kicks ass by a long shot! I've heard the very original song of this and the one done by the Stones...the Who's version is still superior in my view lol.

[PETEtownsend19]

i no were to get this from its a website wich has lots of songs on

[lennonsbigfan]

where?

[chummyjoll]

Great Song Indeed - It seems alot of people have covered this song (Stones - Robert Plant etc..)

[Eamuesrtsionn]

I think Leeds or the London Coluseum one

[fasima]

This is much better than Leeds, LAL is totally overrated Who live show..

[TheDrummerDude17]

@TheWholigans: The London Coliseum version was pretty good as well.

[cowpalace95]

I have posted a studio version of this

[vectormanic]

I have a clear yellow plastic version of this very concert, together with a Pete the Pig Snout dust sleeve cover. Very cool, one of the Who's best concerts ever!

[Denthedragon]

If anyone owns 30 years of Maximum R&B Box Set will know that there's a studio version of this song that sounds similar to this.

[luksmr88]

True, Very Rare!

Long Live The Who!

[alcamopuss]

yay i`ve got that it`s the best

[crlaw75]

I have the box set, I have had it for almost fifteen years. The live version beats the studio version, no matter where it was recorded live.

[mrskeithmoon]

whoa!! its so different!! thats realy cool though!

[Hady1994]

Wow, sounds nothing like the Live at Leeds version!

[thewhochilipeppersU2]

I know! It doesint even begin the same!

[Grafietstift]

Indeed, just a little bit, I like the Leeds version better, but this is cool too!

[fasima]

I find this much better than the overated LAL show one
