Live From Toronto Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)By 1982 The Who were at the top of their game and could play any song in their catalog. This fantastic set from The Who's farewell tour includes old chestnuts like "Naked Eye", "Won't Get Fooled Again" and "My Generation" along side infrequently performed songs like "Eminence Front", "Dangerous" and "Twist & Shout". This version of "Sister Disco" is perhaps the best ever.
The audio sounds like a direct dub from the laserdisc/DVD shovelware version and sound mostly mono. This release is little more than a well-packaged bootleg and is recommended for hard-core Who fans only. Get the DVD or laserdisc instead.

Deep End Live Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Search out the concert video of this, and then burn a cd of its soundtrack. There's just too much good stuff on it that wasn't put on this disc to make the cd a purchase you'll be happy with. Pete looks and sounds great, being content to be the bandleader and leave the guitar heroics to David Gilmour (yes, *that* David Gilmour). MIA here are a fun, relaxed, big-band version of "Won't Get Fooled Again", an even more fun acoustic singalong of "Magic Bus", and a hilariously screeching rendition of "I Put A Spell On You." If the powers that be are content to let a major film statement of The Who like _The Kids Are Alright_ drift in and out of availability, in mutilated form, then I guess there's not a lot of hope for getting a reissue of the Deep End concert. But you'll kick yourself if you settle for this.

The Who: Quadrophenia Live (1989) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)A solid performance of "Quadrophenia," although this single-disc version (like the new single-disc version of "Tommy Live" is missing the encore sets. It's a better bargain to get both concerts, plus their "hits" encores on the three-disc, "The Who Quadrophenia and Tommy Live" DVD. You spend a little bit more money, but you get ALL of the footage from both shows - that triple-disc version (that has similar cover artwork) is a four-star DVD collection). To me, the rock operas were interesting and solid here, but the encore of hits is where The Who rocked out the most on these two tours. It's true, John Entwistle's bass could have been turned up in the mix - not sure why his bass guitar is almost buried under the guitars, vocals, horns and such. And that's Pete's younger brother, Simon Townshend, on guitar, not Pete's son, as one reviewer claimed below. Simon also played on the 2002 tour, at Live 8 in 2005 and on the current tour, although he's playing rhythm guitar now, instead of lead like he did during this 1996/97 DVD. For the 1989 and 1996-97 tours, Pete mostly played rhythm. Thanksfully, Pete did all of the lead solos on the 2000 tour (the only post-1982 Who tour to feature only one guitarist (Pete!)) and on the 2002 tour, as well as the current tour.
Anyway, these videos are good to have but they're not the best of The Who because of Townshend mainly sticking with acoustic/rhythm guitar and the augmented lineup. Start with the two-disc version of "The Kids Are Alright," then get "Live at the Isle of Wight Festival 1970 (brown cover with individual shots of Pete, Roger, John and Keith Moon on the front)," then "Live at the Royal Albert Hall (shot in Nov. 2000 and released in Sept. 2001)" and "Live In Boston (shot in 2002 and released in 2004)." Also pick up "The Concert For New York," which has one of The Who's greatest sets ever on film. Their performance of "Who Are You," "Baba O Riley," "Behind Blue Eyes" and "Won't Get Fooled Again" are incredible and will turn any casual ilstener into a big fan. When they launched into "Baba O Riley," as the firefighters, police officers and other emergency personnel jumped for joy, that is when the U.S. really started to heal after the 2001 terrorist attacks. It's a jaw-dropping performance and alone worth the price of the multi-artist DVD.
The tour that spawned this "Quadrophenia" DVD was John Entwistle's next-to-last Who tour before dying on the eve of their 2002 tour in Las Vegas. The 2000 tour, The Who's best post-Moon tour, was Entwistle's last tour. His performance in this "Quadrophenia" DVD is, of course, stellar, although his bass should have been given more "oomph" and "punch" in the mastering/mixing process.
Long live The Who, the greatest rock band in the world!

The Who - Live in Boston Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)As Roger explains during his interview on this DVD, John Entwistle died only days before this tour kicked off. Although this show in Boston was much later in the tour, it is very difficult to believe that he, Pete, and the rest of the band were able to pull it together so well. I was a little hesitant to buy this at first knowing that John would be absent, but after reading the (for the most part) great reviews, I did so. I am certainly glad I did. The many pros outweight the few cons by a large margin:
PROS
-Fantastic sound quality, especially in 5.1 Surround
-Great camera work, with just enough movement from one member to the other without going overboard
-Enjoyable interviews with Roger and Pete, although Pete really seems to take himself very, very seriously sometimes.
-The set list. Somewhat the same as Royal Albert Hall, but with some wonderful new additions (Love Reign O'er Me, Tricky Day, Sea and Sand--yes, I said Sea and Sand!!, Amazing Journey>Sparks).
CONS
-Intermittent "swishing" sound - it took me two watchings before I realized that it was coming from Roger's microphone when he swings it around. I had never heard that on other videos.
-Roger definitely seems a little down. Not that one could blame him, but it's still strange to not see him smiling all the time and interacting with the audience.
With that out of the way, I need to emphasize one more thing--the Amazing Journey>Sparks part of this concert could very well be the most explosive, exciting, and emotional performance I have ever witnessed out of Pete. Although I have only been fortunate to see The Who in concert once, I am the proud owner of every video that I believe they have released (Kids are Alright, Live in America, Tommy Reunion Tour in '89, Isle of Wight, Royal Albert Hall). Although he is (somewhat surprisingly) very active and enthusiastic during the whole show, Pete is simply out of his head great during these two songs, including what certainly appears to be a completely unplanned but genuine point where he stops playing and just gets into it with the crowd during the climax of Sparks. Absolutely beautiful. You need to get this DVD just for that performance alone.

Endless Wire (W/Dvd) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)When a popular band does not release a studio album of new material for over two decades, diehard fans can never be sure what to expect. I have been a Who fan since I saw them play "I Can See For Miles" on the Smothers Brothers television program, many years ago. After that moment, I saved my allowance money to buy "The Who Sell Out", which remains one of my very favorite albums to this day. I continued to follow the band closely up through the Kenny Jones years and until "It's Hard", feeling at that time that the Who was producing music that was still vital despite changes in its sound and despite original Who drummer Keith Moon's death.
It wasn't until a few years ago when I saw The Who at the Gorge Amphitheatre at George, WA that I thought of them again as a functioning band. They gave an incredible performance on a wonderful night, on the late bassist John Entwistle's final tour. After that show, I wondered if there would ever be any new studio material, particular after the sad passing of Entwistle. A few years later, I found myself on pins and needles awaiting the release of "Endless Wire".
Not knowing what to expect, when I first listened to this new album I was taken back through the Who's history, but also into the future. While certain parts of "Endless Wire" may recall the earlier Who, some parts incorporate later Who sounds and recall some of guitarist/composer Pete Townshend's best solo work... but this album sounds like it is all here, happening right now. My thought after hearing "Endless Wire":
This is The Who in the 21st Century.
Stripped-down arrangements on songs such as "Tea and Theater", "Man In a Purple Dress" and "God Speaks of Marty Robbins" heighten the sense of intimacy within this music. As Townshend ages, he continues his spiritual journey; as a result, one difference between this and earlier Who music is that more songs touch more directly on faith, mortality and eternity. The title track "Endless Wire" is a joyful-sounding song about something infinite and glorious, something of near-mythical proportions which Townshend has discovered within music itself. In "God Speaks of Marty Robbins", he sings "I knew I'd find music and time were the perfect plan..." On the other hand, he doesn't seem to be in support of organized religion at all, as "Man in a Purple Dress" appears to be all about the importance of the individual, above churches, in finding one's spiritual self.
Roger Daltrey sounds older, wiser and deeper, but he certainly does not sound weary. He sings with vigor, and he proves he is still the consummate vocal conduit for Townshend's lyrics. As Daltrey has done in the past, he spans an emotional spectrum with his rich vocals. Townshend's voice is also in good form, despite its descent into mostly baritone territory. The production is impecccable; it tends to be dry in places, with very little reverb or effects added on sparely-arranged numbers, causing some of these guitar-and-vocal arrangements to sound naked, almost vulnerable. Zak Starkey is a fine drummer, and he can change his style whenever he needs, to suit the needs of the band. Pino Palladino works well as the band's bass player, and long-time band associate John "Rabbit" Bundrick adds keyboards that fill out the sound. Check out the keyboards in the album opener "Fragments"... now what song does that remind us of?
I couldn't have asked for a more perfect return by The Who from studio exile. Their energy is still there. Townshend's songwriting and guitar playing have not diminished with time, and Daltrey sounds as good as ever. "Endless Wire" takes me back to my boyhood Who memories through some familiar rhythms and sounds, as it pulses with the life of The Who. It also takes me ahead into a time of maturity. It reassures me that the passage of time does not always mean that good things become lost. Despite the loss of two revered band members over the years, The Who has aged like a fine wine, learning to discover and rediscover good musical things along their journey. I am looking forward to hearing their NEXT studio release, confident that it will be as immediate, as relevant and as important as "Endless Wire".
I am now going to go crank up "Mike Post Theme" full blast!

Pretenders: Live In London Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)"Live In London" is a live performance masterpiece that captures The Pretenders at the top of their game. If you saw them live on their 2009 tour, you'll know what I'm talking about. You owe it to yourself to get this CD/DVD as a reminder of just how amazing this band is on the road.
"Live In London" succeeds where The Pretenders' studio albums fail. They are one of those rare bands that truly does sound better when they're playing in front of an audience -- an intimate small theater crowd here.

With all due respect to original guitarist James Honeyman Scott and bassist Pete Farndon, The Pretenders latest lineup is the best Chrissie Hynde has ever staged. With the steady pounding of original drummer Martin Chambers, newcomers James Walbourne on guitar, Nick Wilkinson on bass and Eric Heywood on pedal steel rock from start to finish, revitalizing Pretenders' classics like "Message of Love" and "Kid," while adding new ones like "Boots of Chinese Plastic" to the playlist.
You'll be blown away by Walbourne's electrifying guitar work. It starts with the first licks of the opener "Chinese Plastic," scorches through "Rosalee," and climaxes with the show-stopper "Precious." Walbourne delivers pure, unadulterated, raw, rip-snorting rock 'n' roll. His on-stage chemistry with Hynde is self-evident.
As per usual, Hynde's vocals are impeccable, showing great range, dynamics and emotion, equally adept at punk rockers like "The Wait" and ballads like "I'll Stand By You." This woman has earned the right to work the stage with the swagger of a rock star. She is it.
The direction and camera work throughout "Live In London" give the viewer the perspective of being on stage with The Pretenders. Tight crops interspersed with effective wide angles make one feel like he can count the streaks of mascara multiplying on Hynde's face and see the beads of sweat building on Chambers' brow as the night rocks on.

The Who - The Kids Are Alright (Special Edition) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)After having seen several other major DVD opportunities get squandered (The Beatles's HARD DAYS NIGHT leaps to mind), it is an utter delight to watch/listen to this DVD. It is great on several levels: the original film was one of the best collections of live performances in the history of rock, the reissue has dramatically improved the look and sound of the film, and the Special Edition extra disc includes some truly wonderful features. This ought to be the model for all future reissues, such as when/if they reissue the Rolling Stones's TWENTY-FIVE BY FIVE.
Only a couple of years ago I was trying to explain to my daughter that in the sixties and seventies, the Who were full-fledged members of the rock Pantheon, as revolutionary and crucial as the Stones, the Beatles, or Led Zeppelin. For some reason, they went into a bit of a decline in the general musical consciousness (I found kids my daughter's age might not know of them at all, whereas they knew the other aforementioned bands quite well). Thanks to some timely re-released and a tragic tour that saw the death of John Entwhistle, their star truly seems to be on the ascendant again. This album is crucial for proving what all of us at the time knew: the Who was without question one of the very greatest live bands of all time.
The Who was an amazing band, full of paradoxes. Roger Daltrey was one of the great front men in the history of rock, and Pete Townshend a crack songwriter and arguably the most entertaining to watch guitarist of all time. Yet, the lead instruments in the band, almost unique in rock, were Keith Moon and his maniacally abused drum kit and John Entwhistle's bass, both of them among the top two or three of all time on their instruments, if not the best. They were a great rhythm section, but they jointly tended to take over the songs musically, unlike Charlie Watts and Bill Wyman for the Stones, who were content to stay rock solid in the background. Live, they were amazing, with Daltrey marching in place, swinging the mike around like David about to use his sling against Goliath; Pete Townshend dancing disjointedly around while doing his famous helicopter chording of the guitar; Keith Moon playing as if he were on eight different drugs, tossing his drumsticks ten and twenty feet in the air; and amid it all, like the quiet in the eye of the hurricane, John Entwhistle standing stock still, motionless except for his hands moving up and down his bass, playing the instrument better than anyone else ever had, or perhaps has since.
The film begins with a bang, with a famous appearance on The Smothers Brothers Show (an awesome show because it was so amazingly subversive, with Tom and Dick acting like total squares, but in reality leftists who loved exposing the public to acts like Lenny Bruce and Mort Sahl, and bands like The Who and Cream). Unlike Ed Sullivan, Tom and Dick truly loved these bands, and the opening number/skit, a rollicking version of "My Generation" (with Roger Daltrey suffering so badly from a faux upper-induced stammer that was a badge of their identification with the amphetamine-crazed Mods that one isn't certain he is going to be able to finish each line). Each number brings new revelations or refreshes old memories. For instance, in "I Can't Explain" from SHINDIG! Keith Moon is sporting a T-shirt with a bull's eye on it, a full decade before Richard Hell would achieve notoriety in New York for wearing one when he was still with Television.
The numbers included in the film are both wide-ranging and representative. I suppose any Who fan will find many of their own favorites missing, but no one can complain that the numbers focus too much on one phase of their career. The selections are extraordinarily well balanced. One of the more poignant features is the fact that the performance of "Won't Get Fooled Again," which was performed specifically for the film so that they could have one really good performance on film of one of their most famous numbers, was the last time the Who ever performed in their original line up; Keith Moon would die only three months later.
The extras disc is truly worth having, with a feature on the restoration of the movie, and nice items like a tour of the Who's London, an interview with Roger Daltrey, and, my favorite bit, interesting versions of "Baba O'Riley" and "Won't Get Fooled Again," that features only John Entwhistle's bass and visuals. There is no question about it: the guy could play bass.
All in all, one is going to come across very few music DVDs quite this good. I highly recommend it.

MAGIC BUS (ON TOUR) (BLUE VINYL) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is not a live album, as the title might lead one to believe; instead it is a collection of relatively obscure singles and B-sides. After the Who's success in America with the single "Magic Bus," the record company hastily threw together a mishmash of odds and ends. This album, released in 1968, is what resulted. The songs are a mixed bag, ranging from classics like "Pictures of Lily" to silliness like "Bucket T."
"I Can't Reach You" and "Our Love Was (Is)", both of which are great, come from "The Who Sell Out." (This album is the only place you can find a version of "Our Love Was" with a clean intro; that is, no crossfade from a previous song.)
Five more songs can be found on the remastered "A Quick One." "Disguises" has a very different mix from that on the box set and reissues. "Run Run Run" is a good song about a perpetually unlucky girl, and "Someone's Coming" and "Doctor, Doctor" are strange-but-fun John Entwistle compositions. "Bucket T." is the Who's attempt at Beach Boys-type material (Keith Moon's favorite song was "Don't Worry Baby.")
"Magic Bus" and "Pictures of Lily" (both excellent songs) are on "Meaty Beaty Big and Bouncy," which is a much more solid compilation. This leaves "Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde," a fun little song only available on this album, which is supposedly about Keith Moon's behavior when he was drinking. And a version of "Call Me Lightning" without lead guitar shows up here.
In short, this is an interesting, but extremely uneven compilation of songs. In addition, the sound is pretty poor. After the recent remasters, most of the songs on this album show up elsewhere, making it unnecessary for all but serious fans. And the running time is just 30 minutes, making it a bad value.
For the completist, this album might be worthwhile. But for casual fans, just get "Meaty Beaty Big and Bouncy" and "The Who Sell Out" for much more solid pieces from the same era.

The Who: Maximum R&B Live (2009) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Be forwarned that the three 1970 Tanglewood songs from the original release, possibly the best footage on the whole thing, have been omitted from this new version. And the footage of Keith Moon passed out at the 1973 Cow Palace show has been removed. Also, two of the three "new" songs on the first disc were already on the recently released Kilburn DVD set. For many, however, the Rockpalast disc alone will be worth the price.
Two stars for the first disc, four for the second.

The Who - Live at the Royal Albert Hall (2000) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)During the playing of John's song, "My Wife", the cameras capture a sequence that literally, says it all. The band has just entered an instrumental break. Pete is introduces the line, John tosses his pick to the wind and grabs up great handfuls of bass strings. From there, it's a race. At their best the Who were always like that. They played as if they were trying to run away from the each other but kept landing in the same place. They were evenly matched and "read" each other so well it usually worked. Mistakes happened, but hell, those only showed how many chances they were willing to take. Crowds loved that and it literally, cemented their reputation as the greatest live band ever. When Keith died they were still an excellent band but his part of that chemistry was lost. John (Rabbit) Bundrick was (and still is) fine with it, but Kenney Jones wasn't. It was that simple.
Then Zak Starkey came along. When (yet) another tour was announced for the spring of 2000 critics were quick to label it to end up as another zip-less grab for money. Little did they know. Zak had been with the band for a few years and largely restored the vitality Keith had injected. More important, he gave Entwistle and Townshend someone they could "run" with again. When they stripped the band back down again the old fire came back. In the spring, summer and fall of 2000 they hit north America with a roar that hadn't been seen from anyone from any genre in decades. New material or no, the most explosive live band in rock was back!
Live at the RAH more than illustrates this. That it's a "greatest hits" set (with an "all-star" guest list to boot) put me off for a while. Don't make the same mistake. The catalogue the Who have to offer is a great one. When it's performed this amount of passion by a band like this it never gets old. Roger can't quite hit all the high notes any longer, Pete doesn't jump a often, or as high and John's singing voice, never great, by this time was close to shot. All of this matters little. Roger has enough passion for ten singers. As well, he brings a level of intelligence and understanding to the material that's rare in the industry. And don't forget, he never takes any nights "off". What Pete lost in leaping ability he's gained in musical finesse. This man is playing the guitar the way he did thirty years ago but with all the skill that time and practice have added. Nobody plays like him. Nobody! John was a fabulous player. Ultimately this band may end up missing him even more than they missed Keith. His ability to pick up Townshend's threads and add immediately add to them was the glue which held them together.
The importance of John (Rabbit) Bundrick can't be overstated. He's played with the Who since the late 1970's and it shows. It's hard to imagine keyboard player better suited to working with this outfit. He's literally all over everything Pete and John do as fast as Keith ever was. The guest stars, for the most fit in well. Eddie Vedder is a long time friend of Townshend and a fan. To watch him up there you could swear he knows their music as well as they do. Brian Adams looks a little nervous (for about ten seconds) but then cuts loose. His rendition of "Behind Blue Eyes" is classic. Nigel Kennedy comes in and plays the violin part from "Baba". He and Townshend have so much fun it has to be illegal (somehow anyway). Noel Gallagher doesn't leave the impact on "Won't Get Fooled Again" that Eddie Vedder leaves on "I'm One" but he doesn't hurt anything either. The only guest stars who fall a little short are Paul Weller and Kelly Jones. Weller and Townshend just don't mesh all that well. Kelly Jones, unfortunately, leaves you wanting Roger back on the mike to remind everyone what "Substitute" is "supposed" to sound like. The only other problem lies with the neck mounted camera used to spotlight John's bass solo. This was just a bad idea. It was supposed to give a close look. All it does is give wide angle close-ups that make Entwistle seem disembodied from the rest of the concert. It's too bad. The solo was a good one. Thankfully that camera was only used on the one segment.
This is nit picking though. The performance is a great one. The camera work is superb and the sound quality is fabulous. Buy it, turn it up and enjoy a great rock band doing their thing.

The Who - Tommy and Quadrophenia Live (2005) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)In my lifetime - hell, probably in ALL time - no band has come out of retirement more often than the Who. After Keith Moon's death, it appeared to be over, until Kenny Jones filled the drum slot for a few years. Bandleader songwriter/guitarist Pete Townshend had developing doubts that the Who were still the proper outlet for his songwriting, and in the late `80s, the band announced its dissolution, punctuated with a `farewell tour'. Anyone who attended any of those shows believing that it would be the band's last hurrah - as advertised - might be somewhat bitter about the experience now. Since then, the Who have been revived more often than patients in a cardiac ward.
Both performances featured on this DVD set are taken from tours posthumous to the band's breakup, so it is understandable if more than a few fans are cynical about this package, but the truth is that it is better than they might expect. Granted, this isn't the classic Who (they ceased to exist with the death of Keith Moon in 1978), but it is classic Who material, and most of it is performed quite brilliantly here. The performance of `Tommy' takes place in Los Angeles in 1989 and at the time, it was quite a special event. A star-studded affair, with guests ranging from Billy Idol, Phil Collins, Patti LaBelle, Steve Winwood and Elton John, the entire performance was televised live. At the time I was ready, and I taped the entire performance on my Sony Betamax (which was dated even then!). I thought the performance was absolutely excellent, and I still have that copy today, although this well-produced DVD makes it even more obsolete than it already has been. The band (which is aided by a plethora of additional musicians, with special praise due to drummer Simon Phillips) is nearly flawless, with the only `unfortunate' thing being the `80s fashion sense (Townshend with a pony-tail?), but who really cares about that now anyway?
The `Quadrophenia' disk is from a later date, compiled from the "Quadrophenia' tour of 1996-97. Coincidentally, I was also familiar with this piece of history, having seen the show at New York's Madison Square Garden. At the time, I was a bit disappointed. "Quadrophenia' is my favorite Who album, and the band performed more than admirably enough (special credit to drummer Zak Starkey), but the film footage that allegedly `connected' the songs did more to damage the rock and roll energy than to aid the story. Furthermore, the special guests detracted from the performance, with Billy Idol and PJ Proby making somewhat embarrassing cameo appearances. On DVD, though, the clever editing resolves the problem as I remembered it, and the pace is consistent.
Perhaps the best feature of this DVD is the special commentary from Pete Townshend and Roger Daltrey. By choosing a second `camera angle', they both appear onscreen, hovering over the concert footage like disembodied spirits. They speak candidly about the details of each event, and getting their insight and perspective while watching the concert is priceless. A third disk contains all of the `encore' footage from both shows, making this a well-rounded package of the band's latter-day performances, as well as an excellent documentary on one of the world's most important rock and roll bands.A-Tom Ryan

Rhino Records is proud to present a 3-DVD boxed set showcasing one of the greatest live bands ever-The Who. Disc one features a live rendition of their full-blown rock opera about a deaf, dumb, and blind boy. Tommy was performed live in 1989 at The Universal Amphitheatre in Los Angeles, with special guests Elton John, Phil Collins, Billy Idol, Patti LaBelle, and Steve Winwood. Disc two contains the band's second rock opus, this time built around the story of a young mod's struggle to come of age in the mid-60s. This live version of Quadrophenia, from the 1996/1997 U.S. Tour was the first time it was performed as Townshend and Daltrey had visualized it, with live action and featuring a then-unknown Alex Langdon in a spellbinding performance as Jimmy, the disillusioned Mod.

Live At Leeds Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The Feb 14, 1970 Leeds show which provided The Who with their
first official live album is widely regarded by collectors
as not only one of the group's finest-ever shows, but one of the
greatest live shows in rock history. The original album included
only 35 minutes of the 120 minute show, and was still one of the greatest live albums ever; in 1995 that length was
more than doubled for the CD remaster, but the "Tommy" portion remained in the vaults. Fans had to be content with the bootleg "Leeds Complete" in order to hear the whole thing, until now. Whether or not the piecemeal way the concert has been
released over the years is a cynical MCA ploy or not, now that
we finally have the whole thing, the show can finally be heard
in all of its awesome power and glory.
One of the reasons "Leeds" is prized among Who collectors is
that it is one of the best-recorded; the mix is superbly
equalized among all three instruments and Daltrey's vocals, and Townshend's guitar sounds especially full-bodied and wet. The performance is one of the tightest and note-perfect of that
period--without losing any of its heat or raw power--and the
audience is amazingly quiet and respectful, which almost gives
the show a "live in the studio" quality. A comparison with
"Live At The Isle Of Wight", the only other complete Moon-era
performance of "Tommy", is in order: although both shows are extraordinary, "Leeds" is superior for the above
reasons (although "Wight" offers arguably better versions of "Young Man Blues" and "We're Not Gonna Take It/See Me Feel Me").
For all of its dozens of incarnations, there is no doubt that
the best version of "Tommy" was when the band originally performed it live in '69-'70; the volcanic fire which erupts
from the group during "Sparks", "Pinball Wizard" and "See Me Feel Me" approaches levels of nirvana not known on the comparatively tame studio record, campy '75 film or horrifyingly
conservative Broadway version. And "Tommy" isn't even the highlight of the show--when the group pull all their muscle
together for "Shakin' All Over", "My Generation" and "Magic Bus"
at the end, the energy released is beyond cathartic. Oh yes,
this new 'deluxe' reissue also contains an expanded booklet
with more photos, liners, etc. So, it took 31 years, but one of the greatest live shows ever is now available in its entirety.
Now that we have "Wight" and "Leeds", how about Woodstock?
(NOTE: although the CD says that "crackling noises have been corrected", one can still hear a little bit of crackle from the worn tapes during "Tommy", esp towards the end--otherwise, the remix is superb).

Who (2009) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)What you get on this Brazilian import is the 1988 compilation of videos & concert clips titled "Who's Better, Who's Best", specifically the expanded 20 song, 73 minute version previously exclusive to the U.S.A. & UK release on the now-defunct Laserdisc format.
There have been numerous releases and edits of this program, starting with the original 1988 15-song VHS release and the 20-song Laserdisc version. In 2008, a DVD version with an altered track line-up(Three Kenney Jones-era songs added, three & a half Keith Moon-era songs dropped) appeared. The revised UK/U.S.A. DVD drops "Baba O'Reily","Relay" & "5:15" and abruptly cuts off "I Can See For Miles" at the halfway point. The clip of "I Can See For Miles" was a composite of an appearance on "the Smothers Brothers Show" plus some off-stage footage of the group clowning around in the country. This composite was created for(but not used in) the film "The Kids are Alright". When Universal Music assembled the 2008 DVD, legal issues had developed over the use of the off-stage footage, so on the 2008 DVD, rather than give us the entire song from the Smothers Brothers footage, "I Can See For Miles" cuts off at the halfway point. The BBC wouldn't permit the use of "Relay" on the DVD because they're already offering the performance on a various artists "Old Grey Whistle Test" DVD, and "Baba O'Reilly" was dropped because the owners of the video rights to the film "The Kids Are Alright" limited Universal Music to using only one song from Shepperton 1978 in the DVD(to avoid harming sales on the remastered DVD of "The Kids Are Alright"), and other permission issues stopped the inclusion of "5:15".
This DVD gives you an exact presentation of the 20-song 1988 Laserdisc version of "Who's Better, Who's Best", but that is not an entirely good thing, because it gives you the program verbatim, with the speed issues which cause "Baba O'Reilly","Won't Get Fooled Again", "Happy Jack" & "You Better, You Bet" to run markedly faster than the correct speed(the off-speed presentation of the Shepperton 1978 performances of "Baba O' Reilly" & "Won't Get Fooled Again" wouldn't be corrected unrtil the release of the remastered "The Kids Are Alright" DVD in 2003).
All the DVD's of this program are compromised in some way. Maybe some day, Universal Music will line up all of the permissions, and give us a definitive DVD with all the songs from the 1988 & 2008 version, and with all the speed issues corrected, but until then, this Brazilian import seems the best option.
You can't fault the picture quality on this Brazilian DVD. Given the reality of Brazilian DVD releases of many British & American rock music video programs, I was expecting a poor quality unauthorized pirate release, or at best a copy from the 1988 Laserdisc, but that is not the case. The company releasing this disc got a professional quality tape copy. It's too good to be dubbed from the Laserdisc, and so the DVD is apparently legitimate.

If you owned the 1988 VHS version or(especially) the 1988 20-song Laserdisc edition, and you're looking for a DVD to replace your old VHS or Laserdisc, then look no further:This is it.

Yes, You Can Go Home - On the Road with Eric Burdon & The Animals Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)For anyone who has ever wanted to tour with a band, and see the real backstage life, this DVD is for you. If you're an Eric Burdon fan, that makes this even better.
As the director states, this is not a concert DVD. Rather than experience Eric Burdon from a fan's point of view, you will experience their journey back to their roots as one of the insiders. I felt like I belonged backstage with the band as I watched this DVD. Watching Eric walk the streets of his hometown and reminisce about his memories there gave me a unique perspective into his life.
I also enjoyed watching the band's interaction when there was no audience to perform for. I got a chance to see what they were really like when no one else was around.
All in all, it was a wonderful, matchless experience. If you are an Eric Burdon fan, you must own this DVD.

The first Varipix DVD release is the result of a collaboration with the incomparable Eric Burdon (blues vocalist extraordinaire and founder of The Animals and WAR). Director Craig Kelly (MachineHeadUSA) documents the behind-the-scenes experience as Eric Burdon performs in his hometown of Newcastle, England for the first time in over 20 years - a memorable homecoming concert and birthday celebration. "Yes, You Can Go Home" is your backstage pass for a trip back in time, to a town where Eric is the "local boy who makes good" and everybody knows and loves him. Interviews with Eric and the band provide insight and perspective to the event, and town "locals" provide a colorful backdrop.This impeccably produced DVD features Eric and his band (Dave Meros, Dean Restum, Martin Gerschwitz and Bernie Pershey) in performance, backstage and around town as they reprise their role as Newcastle’s homegrown workingman’s band. Humor, irony, frustration and tears are all in evidence as Eric finally brings his legacy back home.Visit the old haunts and meet the people that were the early influence of one of the inspired voices of our time; experience a musical icon’s working-class roots. Eric Burdon and the Animal’s "Yes, You Can Go Home" is a rare, uncensored and personal documentary that will be a cherished part of the collector’s media library and is an interesting piece of rock-and-roll history.Co-produced by Eric Burdon, Craig Kelly and Joel Veatch in cooperation with Flying Spot Motion Media/Seattle.©2003 Varipix and Eric Burdon Productions.

Quadrophenia Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The Who were at the top of their game when they recorded Quadrophenia and each member showcased his abilities to the fullest. This is Pete Townshend's most concise work as a musical story teller. It also features some of the best songs he ever wrote. At least six of the pieces on this set exceed even his normal (high) standard. `Sea and Sand' contains enough melodic fibre for two songs. `The Punk and the Godfather' and `The Real Me' are as fiery a pair of hard rock songs as have ever been released. `I'm One', `The Dirty Jobs', `Is It In My Head', and `Drowned' could easily find a place in music theatre. More familiar pieces such as `5:15', `Bell Boy' and `Love Reign O'er Me' continue to shine to this day. Even some of the flawed material stands out. `Dr. Jimmy' begins brilliantly but (partially) fails because Townshend didn't seem to be able to figure out how it should end. His playing and singing is uniformly outstanding throughout the set. There's some great guitar work on `Love Reign O'er Me'.
Roger Daltrey found himself as a vocal dramatist while the group was recording `Tommy'. The full power of his vocal range came out during the tours that followed and in the subsequent recording of `Who's Next'. He made full use of both, and did so with flair, style and confidence on this record. There are points where he sings more softly, points where he roars and times when he does both. His best moments come during `The Real Me', `Love Reign O'er Me' and on `Bell Boy' when he sets the stage for Moon.
John Entwistle came up with the clinic on how to use the bass as a lead instrument. His (most obvious) great moment comes early, midway through `The Real Me' when he and Keith take up the entire melody of the song and carry it under Daltrey's vocal line. It's been done many times by a lot of people but seldom better than this. Mostly however, his work on this record is extremely subtle. He carries much of the melody (as was the norm for him) but provides an excellent platform for the layers of guitar and synth work that ride over-top. Listen closely to `Cut My Hair', `The Punk Meets the Godfather' and "Is It In My Head'. The point of note is that much of what he does only seems to be coming from the bass guitar if a listener stops and really thinks about it.
Keith Moon gave his best (and last great) studio performance on this recording. The way he and Entwistle carry the melody of `The Real Me' is astounding. The symphonic element he lends `Dr. Jimmy' is something few other drummers could pull off. The phrasing he used to mark `Sea and Sand' is unique to this day. He marked Entwistle's bass line on `The Dirty Jobs' with his feet and Daltrey's vocals with the sticks. His use of cymbals to close, open and join the song's musical phrases is nothing short of remarkable. No other drummer would have played this piece like that, not then, not now, and not ever. He was probably the most innovative player ever to sit behind a drum kit.
This album never really got the recognition it deserved. That's not surprising considering the troubles that dogged it right from the beginning. After the Lifehouse episode the group wasn't ready to swallow another magnum opus from Townshend all too easily. Inactivity had shaken Moon's confidence. The group had trouble enough finding him to bring him into the studio to play and even more trouble getting him to play once he was there. The record was released after the tour began because of an unexpected shortage of vinyl. None of the members was ever satisfied with the way it was mixed initially. Once it was released It didn't get much media exposure either, probably because there wasn't much on it that would have been suitable for radio. On stage it was too complex for the band to play without a set of backing tapes. The tapes malfunctioned on a regular basis. When they did work they locked the band into a set rendition of the pieces. Moon made things worse one night by getting into monkey tranquillizers and collapsing on-stage. He recovered but wasn't himself for the rest of the tour (he dried out in a nursing home after it ended). That couldn't have helped the shows. The group never really shook off those problems and, after a short tour the following year (for the most), left it behind them.
It's stood the test of time (though it has its share of flaws that are all the more glaring because of the quality of the material surrounding them). The two instrumental pieces can wear their welcomes out quickly. In the wrong mood they sound either pretentious, dragged out, or both. `Dr. Jimmy' spends at least three minutes rambling after it's finished. `Helpless Dancer' falls flat on its face. Those are small complaints though. There's a lot to absorb on this record and it's still well worth the effort to do so. The writing approaches volatile subject matter subject matter thoughtfully and with great insight. The delivery is powerful and original. It reaches the heart as well as the mind. With this release the problem with the mix has been corrected. The sound is excellent. And, apart from correcting the original problems, it now also comes closer than any of their other albums to bringing their stage sound to record. This may be hard to imagine given all the synthesizer tracks on the recording but it's the truth. Who's Next is a close second but playing to the time signatures of the click tracks for the first time put too many restraints on Moon for that to be the case. By the time the band recorded this album he'd had enough experience with them to work better within the limitations they imposed. The bootleg recordings from the '75 tour prove this.
This is (finally) close to being the record the Who wanted to release. It's everything a record should be.

The Who Rocks America 1982 (1982) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)As a concert video, this isn't bad. The camera angles are good and focus on the right player at the right time. The sound quality is better than the "Who's Last" LP, and the setlist is also better than on "Who's Last," as the audio release of this tour did not feature any songs from "Face Dances" or "It's Hard."
The problem I have is with the performance itself. I have bootleg recordings of some of the other concerts on this tour, which in my opinion are better than this stop in Toronto. Of the concerts I've heard, my favorite is Seattle on October 20th, 1982. Roger's vocals are stronger and the band sounds tighter on that performance.
Maybe someday they will release more of the '82 tour. Until then, however, this serves as a good document.

The John Entwistle Band - Live Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)On June 27, 2002, Heaven's Band gained the greatest bass player who ever lived. John Entwistle had accomplished much in his life: from his revolutionary innovative bass work with the rock band The Who, to solo writing, recording, and live performances with his own band. Executive producers Steve Luongo and Robert Swope have turned what was probably a routine filming of the John Entwistle Band on stage, into a fitting tribute to this talented musician, and the man. There is so much emotion and energy packed into this short DVD. Luongo made sure viewers came away with a full understanding of what John Entwistle was all about. I have never seen a more sincere offering from one friend to another. This DVD is an absolute must whether you are a devoted Entwistle fan or not. The package is basically divided into the live performance and Steve Luongo's Eulogy to Entwistle. The "concert only" option allows one to view the live set uninterrupted by Luongo's anecdotal commentary between songs. Much can be learned from Luongo's heart-felt remembrances, however, along with video clips of John at home and in the studio, so do not skip the "view all" option. The performance consists of an eight-song set, played at an outdoor festival setting at dusk. Accompanying Entwistle is drummer Steve Luongo, Godfrey Townsend on guitar and lead vocals, and Gordon Cotten on keyboards.Except for the short typically macabre opener "Horror Rock," the set consists of Who songs written by Entwistle, and Who live standards. The camera crew are not yet warmed up when the band goes into what has to be Entwistle's greatest song ever: "The Real Me." The shot remains on Townsend, while Entwistle wails the song's opening signature bass lines. A second camera zooming in on Entwistle's back, adds to the frustration. Yet, the song suggests the ultra tight bass and drum work, and Townsend's Daltry-like vocal style that will dominate the show. Entwistle introduces "Had Enough" in his husky London brogue. This number features nice vocal harmonies between Townsend, Luongo, and Cotten with more tight bass and drum work. Entwistle dons an 8-string bass for "Success Story," and adds some sweet effects to it for the song's bridge. Entwistle strains to sing lead on his "Trick of the Light," yet the song's continuous phrasing would challenge the breathing skills of the most powerful singer. He ends the song with an incredible machine-gun flurry of hammer-ons, coupled with Spanish guitar-style strumming that can only be uniquely attributed to the Entwistle style. By now, the small crowd is coming alive, and thankfully, the camera crew has gotten it together. Townsend opens "Shaking All Over" with a guitar solo, however, his performance will continue to suffer from lack of volume. The song leads to a duel between Entwistle and Luongo that culminates into a breath-taking, ear shattering bass solo, complete with more hammer-ons, bass harmonics, and Entwistle strumming feverishly with every finger of his right hand. The set ends with the Who live standards "Summertime Blues" and "Young Man Blues."The second feature of the DVD is Luongo's Eulogy to John. First read at Entwistle's memorial service, Luongo reproduces it here backed by a video montage of John at home. Through Luongo's words, we learn about what is was like to be a friend of John Entwistle. Here we see John the artist (remember the cover art of the Who album "By Numbers?"), the collector of arms and armor, guns, and antique cars (although John never learned to drive), and an entertainer who genuinely loved his fans. Luongo is to be commended here for his sincere dedication and friendship. Entwistle was just doing what comes naturally to him on this DVD: playing awesome bass guitar. Luongo only asks that "when we hear thunder, think of [his friend] John Entwistle!" Thanks Steve, we sure will!
