A Quick One While He's Away



Now as good as the link mark j put in was good,I have a better one,mine is from their performance at The London Coliseum in 1969.



Here is the rather funny intro:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-rY9z8N_mcc&feature=related



Here's the actual performance:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E4uUr5xIfFY



This was what made stuff like Rael,Tommy,the ill fated Lifehouse(aka Who's Next),Quadrophenia,and Psychoderelict possible!



Now here's another good live performance,from the live album by which all live albums are judged,I give to the Live At Leeds version:

Baba O'Reiley is probably my favorite.

I also love Behind Blue Eyes, Pinball Wizard, and Bargain.

"Won't Get Fooled Again." I know it's a cliche but every time Daltry sings "Meet the new boss, same as the old boss" I get chills.
