The Best Guitar Solos of Pete Townshend (Part 3 of 6)

Yes there was originally a part 3, but I felt it was too weak so I remade it into this new vid. Some of the original solos were maintained into this vid, but I for the most part it's a completely different vid. So watch, enjoy and revel in the talent of the most underrated guitar player, Pete Townshend of the almighty Who. I DO NOT OWN ANY OF THESE PICS OR AUDIO.

@SKINmodHEAD jazz hater.

Good rhythm guitar player.. Terrible at playing leads though.. Just dreadful.

[heftosprod]

Who gives a toss? He plays great guitar... what does lead or rhythm matter? It's a null pont made by people who know fuck all about fuck all.

Firstly you're stereotyping. Everyone really? Then how come if you look at the comments on this vid there are people who agree w/ me as well as on some of my other vids and the Who's website? That's a lot of people. Everyone does love Pete's rhythm playing yes, but I think what separates the Wholigans from the fans is recognizing the greatness in Pete's lyrical solos and there a LOT of people who realize that. You obviously are not. To call me an idiot is uncalled for.

I agree about the so much out of so little, and a fan should take their pride in their guitarist, but I still don't see you can say he's shitty. And again you're assuming I'm single.....and you're saying I make too many assumptions....I'm not saying if I am or not, I'm just pointing out that you're automatically assuming it

Ok fine you're a Mod. But a diehard appreciates all of their music. To me The Who are that awesome '70s live hard rock band. Mod stuff was good too, but to me the 1969-1976 was the shit.

@SKINmodHEAD

And uh you've made more.

[SKINmodHEAD]

You're actually FULL of assumptions...and shit.

No need to be so emotional & defensive over this. It's probably one reason you're single actually...just, calm down...fuck.

One of the reasons I idolize Pete & worship The Who is because of how shitty of a lead guitarist Pete is compared to every other lead guy in history. The fact that he can get SO MUCH out of SO LITTLE is awe inspiring, and has driven me to keep playing.

So, if anything, a fan of The Who should take pride in their guitarist.

"Real fans like me & many others on the official website"...

Oh goodness...

I don't know man...I'm proud to call myself a Mod, but Quadrophenia sucks. It's not Mod music. Tommy is not Mod music. Who's Next...By Numbers.

The Who stopped being The Who & started being a prog rock band.

I like the early Who a hell of a lot more than even The Who in 1968.

Magic Bus?! What the fuck is that?!

@joshuathemonkeyking

Why are you defending him?

He's a registered sex offender. He was NOT found innocent...he was acquitted.

A week before the Super Bowl, a notice was sent home to the parents of Dade County school children warning that Townshend would be in the area...look it up if you don't believe me.

I don't think Pete sucks based on HIM SAYING SO. That's absurd.
