The bass line by the late John Entwistle is amazing

[@raulcastro7633]

Right?

[@loosilu]

dressed to kill is a common phrase.

[@bintheredonethat]

Worked with this group several times. Had a party at the promoters house I worked for for them, even brought in pin ball machines. We set a record time for load in, set up for a stadium show once, and only once, with them. What normally took 5 days to build we did in 16 hours. Never been done that fast before. I've never heard of anyone doing it that fast again, for any stadium show. One of the better outfits to work with.

[@TrianglesAndCircles]

That's an absolutely amazing experience to share! Are you as deaf as I am now?

[@paulsampugnaro6807]

IATSE 🤘🏻

[@bintheredonethat]

@@paulsampugnaro6807 I worked with IATSE a lot back in the day. We owned a lot show equipment , including two Super Troopers, carbon arc lamp, not xenon . We had an IATSE guy that knew them inside and out do periodic maintenance on them. Those things were beasts. You had to know what you were doing to run one. Keeping those rods feeding right kept you on your toes. I know I'd done it many times. Xenons started replacing them, especially for really long throws. ;0)

[@paddy160160]

This song is a powerhouse, impeccable timing, thunderous arrangement,Entwhistle booms through space and time

[@markh2200]

I LOVED the original (non-lyric) video that was released with the song. That video had the band in a stadium, during set-up and sound-check. The music starts playing on a reel-to-reel tape player, the drums get adjusted, Roger Daltry walks out of a limo and onto the stage, and then Pete Townsend steps-up to the mic. That video footage really enhance the song for me!

[@debjorgo]

Yeah. Great video with the live film. I'm not too keen on hearing what the guy who made this fan video thinks the song's about either. And I think Pete was being a little flippant with his comment about the coke.

[@blindriv3r]

Yeah, Daltrey gets out of a limo and Pete gets out of a van with a bunch of other ppl lol... the two did not really hang out together lol

[@vicprovost2561]

Yes, that is what they should have done but they are often slaves to lyric videos. At least you know what these guys say anyhow.

[@loosilu]

It was not unusal for Daltrey to stay in a different hotel. He was the sober one.

[@surlechapeau]

Brad & Lex, you'll love their "Behind Blue Eyes" and "5:15"!!!

[@russbillington6291]

5:15 is a belter but the hole quadrophenia album is fantastic..

[@loosilu]

Quadrophenia is absolutely beautiful and worth every single second. Don't be intimidated by the length. It feels much shorter. It's FUN. It's beautiful. It's a very beautful long walk that touches your hear.t

[@crazeyjoe]

John "the ox" Entwistle playing that funky bass in the choruses!

[@butchgriggs6325]

FINALLY!...There's so much music out there you ain't even touched. Lex had her eyes closed the whole time groovin'...Lex has it... Dressed to Kill = Dressed your best Put on = Fooling people behind a façade Put off = Someone who smells, nasty, cringe etc.

1982 live from Toronto Is the best live performance of this song I’ve seen them do and I’ve been to over 30 Who shows since 1979. Love this group

[@andrebitoff3726]

I was living in T.O. back then Concert live on TV whole city was captivated. One big party. Glad Maple Leaf Gardens still stands. A national treasure.

[@steviebass59]

That is one of the best performances by any band ever…

[@MarceloCunha2011]

O show de Toronto em 1982 talvez tenha sido o último suspiro da fase de ouro do the who . Pelo menos no que podemos considerar da poderosa voz de roger daltrey. A idade chega para os humanos , para os instrumentos 🎸 não . Nesse caso de eminent front o solo vocal 🎤 é do Peter Townsend.

Some reason I was obsessed with this song when it came out. I think it was the repetitive riff, it hypnotized me i think.🤣😂

[@markjacobsen8335]

A put on is an attempt to deceive. "You're putting me on!" is what you might say to someone who you think just lied to you. An eminence front is a put on of greatness for yourself that you want others to see, but in reality it's all fake. It's just a front. Top 10 Who song.

[@normansawatzky4778]

Like what the WEF/NWO loving Prime Minister of Canada is doing to Canadians...

[@MissJulieTruely]

This is one of my top ten songs. I fell in love with The Who when I was a young girl and seen the video of Eminence Front on MTV. The depth of sound and simplicity of lyrics (though I didn't understand them), totally blew my mind. This is when I fell in love with music.

[@Johnny_Socko]

I thought I remembered a version of this song where the intro had a bunch of drum fills during the instrumental part. Am I going crazy, or am I thinking of a different 80s-era Who song?

[@MissJulieTruely]

@@Johnny_Socko Not sure, you might have to go on a deep search. It drives me crazy when that happens 🤣

This was the song playing first time I realized I was high. And I was riding in the back seat of my parents car, Christmas Eve. That bass took me to another world.

[@babylonsister118]

Pete Townsend is a songwriter extraordinaire! In my top five songwriters of our generation. He has a really nice share of solo work that is outstanding, as well. A "put on" is basically fake, often was used in the context of "you're putting me on" same as "yanking my chain".

[@ShaunHensley]

‘Fronting’ is slang for ‘putting on’ a false persona, not showing real self. Eminence Front Everyone is faking. This is an invitation to be real.

[@montanamanculich7188]

I'll never forget the moment I heard this song. Took me to another place. I was 25 years old and on a fishing trip with my dad. He was on aux on the way back to the cabins. Been one of my top songs ever since.

[@pxlmvr7]

This is an amazing funk song, and Entwistle’s bass line along with Townsend’s lead guitar makes this a funky, danceable classic!

[@mr.anderson3369]

The Who were my first arena concert, this track was on the album they were touring on, the album is 'It's Hard', the opening acts were Eddie Money and The Clash, it was in '82 and I was only 15. I cant believe this but I'm going to see them again in October

Saw The WHO on this tour, "It's Hard" for the first time, and of course they played this song, their big hit at the time. It rocked, but so did many other songs that night, "Sister Disco" and "Won't Get Fooled Again" are good examples.

[@markgreiser464]

I waited all my life to see the Who. A few weeks before the concert, my son who actually had won me the Tickets , on Radio, totaled my Car while out with Friends. To get him and the Car home I gave up the Tickets, to pay the Bills. Pray for me.

I always viewed this as more a Pete solo offering than a traditional Who song. But I like it a lot.

[@easyrolling]

They had a few more albums after this but this was really the swan song.. a great groove in the 80s with Townshend on lead. It's the 60s and 70s you need to do more of with this group. Roger Daltrey' s powerful lead vocals.. hope more suggestions when you do some 60s or 70s streams. Nice reaction..

[@sea1themall]

I've listened to this song for 30 years and I didn't know half of the lyrics, but you turn it up loud enough you can feel them.

Probably my favorite British band from the 1960's-1970's. A huge catalog of songs and the last two original members, singer and lead guitarist still tour. Check them out live......you won't regret it.

[@ColHambone]

There's a line at the end of the "people forget" parts of the verse where after the last "people forget"... "that they're hiding. They're absolutely putting on this facade over how messed up they are but a lot aren't even fully aware that they are doing it.

One of my fave Who songs, albeit very different from their previous work. 😎

[@loosilu]

Pete is from a family of professional musicians. Both parents were professional musicians. His mother was a professional singer. Pete can sing.

[@rk41gator]

Great song. This 'shuffle' is so cool. The Who is one of my top bands. Personally, I think Phil Collins is one of rocks best drummers and I read he once said "The Who is the only band I would leave Genesis to join" (Keith Moon was one of his drumming idols) I can totally hear Phil getting into this beat. Collins had very good taste. Knowing he held The Who in such regard only raised my estimation of him. The Who was a class act. Wish I could have seen them live.

[@CuttinEJ]

Probably my favorite Who song because of that absolutely scorching intro guitar solo. Much love ❤️

[@tomscott3]

Yeah, bro and sis, that's my theme song right there! This tune is just so perfect--everything about it. People have commented on the intro guitar, but the outtro is equally amazing. Pete puts so many quarter and half rests (and I think a couple full rests) in the last 8 measures, that makes it difficult to play, never mind sing at the same time. This tune has meaning on so many levels. In fact, our legal system here in Amerika is the epitome of an "eminence front," since it certainly is a "put on."

[@peccatumDei]

Every time I hear this song, I'm reminded of a PBS Frontline documentary about the French TGV high speed trains, that used the instrumental intro of this song as a bed while showing video of those trains. Somehow it fit perfectly, and it's stuck in my head forever.

[@rubroken]

A little piece of this song was in the movie, "Law Abiding Citizen" in a jail scene....I had never heard it before and had to scroll the credits several times to find out The Who had made it. Now my favorite

I mean Lex is pretty good at deciphering meanings in the moment, but Brad had an edge from the start. Anyway, it's not a competition and this is my favorite song from the Who. Basically rich folk glide through life ignoring the consequences. Some poor people do too but for the rich it hits different.
