The Who - Sparks - London 1979 (20)

Hammersmith Odeon, London, December 28, 1979 - The only time in 1979 they played this before I Can See For Miles. You can see another similarity here with Chicago as Pete breaks a string in his guitar here (like in Chicago!) and improvises a new section.

This must be early in the tour. Pete's pretty rusty.

@clashwho opposite actually. it's the last show of the tour! haha!

[clashwho]

@hvh823iow Wow, then Pete must be drunk!

[hvh823iow]

@clashwho either that or worse according to some of the comments on these Hammersmith videos... :)) does make for an interesting version though!

Pathetic Showing. Broken string, or not.

i love Pete's guitar's climate in the middle

The Who is an average band without Moon. With Moon they were a great band.

[CardiffBoy1927]

Yup, Jones is seriously out of his depth here. He was/is a good drummer, but more suited to traditional 4/4 Rock. Keith Moon was a solo performer which gave The Who a very distinct flavour.

[madshadows830]

Keith Moon is so missed here.....Jones just doesn't have Keith's chops....Listen to Sparks w/Keith and you'll be floored.....Jones is awful here,he's actually struggling to keep up.

Roger Daltrey was fcking hot!!! Extra tambourines makes me laugh!
