Eric Clapton, Arthur Brown e The Who - ''Eyesight To The Blind'' (Tommy - 1975) [Legendado-Pt]

Em 1975 o cineasta Ken Russell lançou sua versão, no mínimo corajosa, da história de Tommy. Trazia o The Who e um elenco eclético, que incluía a participação de outros músicos como Elton John, Tina Turner, Eric Clapton e Arthur Brown.
Na cena acima, Clapton interpreta o ''Pregador'' (tocando "Eyesight To The Blind") e Arthur Brown como um pastor no culto de Tommy.

Arthur Brown. .king of fire. The best psychoman....

I wish the soundtrack version included Arthur Brown

[@NebMunb]

He brought the fucking thunder on this track!

[@jamesschaidt1096]

Arthur Brown is my favorite rock vocalist.

John Entwistle's killer bassline

Makes the song for me !! Always loved it , always will ❤❤❤❤

[@UglyKenHart]

Clapton just outright sleepwalking through the vocals on this one while fucking Arthur Brown is RIGHT THERE.

Brown's scream is the grandfather of heavy metal

[@stephanegenilloud1139]

One of the best songs of Clapton and one of the very few improvements over the Who's originals.

[@GrilloTheFlightless]

Even The Who’s version was a cover. Sonny Boy Williamson wrote and recorded it in ‘51. But I know what you mean and agree with you wholeheartedly. There’s something a bit special with The Who featuring Eric Clapton and a cameo from Arthur Brown.

[@stephanegenilloud1139]

@@GrilloTheFlightless Good point! Of course it's a cover... I guess I would have made the same omission with Shakin' all over or Summertime Blues. Watching this again, I'm even beginning to think Tommy might actually be a better movie than I initially thought.

[@NebMunb]

Yeah if you like listening to the minor blues scale the entire time. Bleh, lazy playing.

[@djangolee1]

That's not an Eric Clapton song...that's The Who feat. Eric Clapton...The Who!!!! Produced By. Pete Townshend...it's a cover version, the original song is from "Sonny Boy Williamson II"

[@stephanegenilloud1139]

@@djangolee1 All of this is cristal clear I would say. But considering that Clapton is singing the lead vocals and playing the lead guitar, this version is a Clapton song. Period.

[@VAGCOMM]

Never see'n it before, very surprized. I think there was a real perfomance and real musicians, like no today.

[@GrilloTheFlightless]

I heard that Arthur Brown was supposed to be singing the whole song, which would have been brilliant -Arthur’s voice with Clapton’s guitar. However, Ken Russel (for reasons known only to himself) didn’t like Arthur Brown and cut him down to a very small part. Pete Townsend, who was a fan of Arthur Brown and pretty much got him his first record deal, fought hard to keep Arthur in the film. If Ken Russel had got his way Arthur wouldn’t have been in it at all.

[@emilyoshiro]

Pete produced and played bass on Arthur Brown’s first lp

[@GrilloTheFlightless]

@@emilyoshiro The bass on that LP was Nick Greenwood, and was produced by Kit Lambert, although I understand that Townsend did make a number of suggestions. There was pressure from the record company to add electric guitar to a number of tracks and Townsend encouraged Crazy World to stick to their guns and not use one. I’ve hears stories that Townsend suggested the use of horns on Fire, but I’ve also heard elsewhere that this was Lamberts idea. Who knows.

[@TheInkPitOx]

But then we wouldn't have had Clapton's beautiful voice

[@KeizerHedorah]

Ken was wrong, though the Clapton Brown colab that resulted is a gift to us all.

[@gregorygourley6426]

Tommy was a great movie, and this sequence, & song has always been one of the coolest parts in the film. Ken Russell is a phenomenal director, along with The Who, and all the other fantastic musicians in it, how can you go wrong. Great Stuff. Bob. G

[@Hydrocorax]

Clapton was a pioneer of electric guitar. He's a major figure in the history of popular music, a very good songwriter who can definitely sing, but he wasn't even the best singer in Cream.

[@danielmaher7108]

My God, this is outrageous. I can't this film was given a PG rating! Oddly enough, I didn't much like it when I saw it in the theater in the 1970s ( I think I was about 15 or so). But now it holds up very well. A movie like this could never get made today, or if it DID get released, it would be a cult film. But as I recall, it was a big hit back in the day.
