40 years ago today, one of the most exciting bands took the stage to record a live act so terrific, they had to put it on vinyl. Well, to celebrate, I've made an entire video series dedicated for the anniversary. Hope you enjoy the songs.
PS- I could NOT (unfortunately) include the song 'My Generation' in the series because the song was over 15 minutes long and Youtube did not allow it. I'm sorry again and if anyone wants that particular song, feel free to ask! Thanks again.
Track 3: Fortune Teller
"Benny Spellman's hit 'Fortune Teller', also covered by The Rolling Stones and The Merseybeats. was a staple of The Who's live act between 1968 and 1970. Opening as a medium-paced R&B lurcher, The Who slip into a higher gear halfway through, turning the song into a full throated rocker, a fine example of 'Maximum R&B'"
Track 4: Tattoo
"The Who retained an affection for 'Tattoo' long after the album's other songs had been discarded. They were performing it right up to the mid-Seventies.
'Tattoo' boasts a particularly attractive and mature melody and couplets with unusually complex rhymes about two brothers who decide to get their skin tattooed, only to regret the decision after parental objections and personal contemplations."

"Tattoo" from Live at Leeds is my favorite version of this classic song, and also one of the best Who's songs
