Top o' the mountain with this song.  Check out Keith's drumming on the version from 'The Kids Are Alright'. {#Cheesygrin}

Thanks to my old friend John E. for singing lead on this song in my old band.

Great hand claps in this one.

 
Did John E. have the Roger Daltrey patented "microphone lasso-twirl followed by the toss way up high" effect as well?

Likewise, I would have said something, but they've asked not to explain.  You had to be there, anyway.

Shame the last drum beats that finish off this song on the original single are missing from this cut. It feels unfinished to us old farts from UK

Did you just want to explode up through the ceiling when they played Young Mans Blues?

What an eyeful and earful to behold - the Who - in their prime.

Good day to play this . . .

(click here)

The Who just played live at Leeds where they recorded perhaps one of the best live albums in history in 1970.

Topical coincidence?

Hi Gryn! Let see ... The Who .. the BeAtles (and it's beatles with and A as in beat) both British invasion bands that had their glory days in the late sixties ... not surprising they sound alike to you ... probably also ... the Kinks, the Animals, Yardbirds, maybe even early Stones etc. etc. etc....

That is a scene from "A Hard Days Night". Don't know if it actually happened ... wouldn't be suprised if did though.
