The Who - WOODSTOCK 1969 (Full Concert) 4K - REMASTERED

[@nowhereman5640]

I must boast, I was there in 69. They came on in the middle of the night. I was wide awake, with a little help. This takes me back, but nothing like sitting in the middle of that hill surrounded by the masses all watching in awe.

Hello brother, I was there too by coincidence. We were visiting my mother's sister from Germany. I was 15 years old and she had two sons, 19 and 21 years old. We went there together and that determined my whole life. the music, the people, the whole feeling. I still think about it a lot today, listen to the music and am there again in my mind. there was nothing bigger. Many greetings from Germany Michael

I love live at leeds. I love Isle of wight. But god theres something about this performance that transcends all the others. The symbolic weight. I feel like this is The Who giving the last word on the 1960s. They closed it out and the sun rises on a new dawn. Its beyond epic and beautiful. I cant believe human beings can do things like this. create moments this powerful. I'd give anything to have been there.

Such a great comment & so true. I feel the same & tried to explain it in a comment I wrote for the video that’s called: The Who - all Woodstock Footage. It’s so intense I can’t truly put it into words. Like trying to explain an amazing psychedelic experience.

[@pattimurphyrocks]

I completely agree with you, it's like how is it even conceivable and possible? I feel so lucky to have been growing up in the 60's and 70's. When you said you cannot believe human beings can create moments this powerful, it is exactly what I was thinking. They were driven to excellence, inspired by their own peers and experiences.

The who never disappointed on their concerts. Always giving it 110 %

[@leonardschoenborn9209]

You can see in this footage what kind of virtuoso Keith Moon was on those drums that made his playing so legendary -- and at 23 years old. INCREDIBLE!!! What's crazy is that, while Keith Moon's style looks crazy wild, his timing is perfect. That's what made him so unique as a drummer. His style is like no other, and that's how he will always be remembered. Thanks to whoever put this concert out here. You almost have to see it to believe it.

[@aprildoughty8864]

Well said

[@Kpengie]

All respect to Keith Moon and his boundless energy with how much it added to the Who's music, but he wasn't very good at keeping time, something John Entwistle and Pete Townshend have both said about him repeatedly. Entwistle and Townshend couldn't rely on their drummer to keep time, and had to do it themselves most of the time. Again, not to say that Moon wasn't talented, but keeping time wasn't his strong suit.

[@timottes334]

@@Kpengie You don't know what the fuck yer talking about. They've said Moon wasn't a traditional, backbeat, timekeeper as a drummer... not that he didn't play in time... In fact, Roger has commented vehemently against the stupid notion that Keith didn't play in time... " He had an inner metronome. " Roger Daltrey. When you listen to The Who live & don't find your foot tapping in time, or ever find Roger rushing the lyrics or slowing them down to keep up or slow down for Moonie... you let me know!!! Of course, the Cow Palace episode aside... Watch Peter Criss live in the mid to late 70's.... & much of the time he speeds up so fast that Stanley can't get the lyrics out. That's the most obvious way to tell if a drummer can't keep time/has a sloppy meter!! You NEVER see this with The Who & is probably the main reason they were the most powerful live band EVER!! Moonie played to click tracks live & in the studio & if a drummer can't keep time he can't play to click tracks... just ask Dave Grohl... Much of Who's Next & Quadrophenia are played to clicks... and Moonie was an expressive drummer playing to those clicks... IN TIME!!

Remade, re-edited and remastered in 4K. This new version is superior to the old in every way. To start with, I used the audio from the Woodstock 50th Anniversary Edition CD release which has been remastered by Prof. Stoned. It's a lot better sounding than the old version. On the old edit, I stretched the audio around to fit the footage which would do the job of syncing the audio, but would hurt the overall quality. This time around, I have left the audio untouched to remain at the correct speed for the whole show while still keeping the quality. For the black and white footage, I have used AI upscaling and frame interpolation to greatly improve the quality and bring the footage up to a smooth 60fps. I think it looks way better. For the various proshots, I've ripped the Blu-ray versions whenever available rather than the DVD's for a huge upgrade in quality. The DVD versions not only ran at the wrong speed making the songs too fast, but also suffered from a ghosting effect because the footage was being played back at 29.97fps instead of the intended 23.97fps. Now with the Blu-ray versions, I can let the footage play at the correct speed and in its original frame rate of 23.97fps. The only footage from a DVD source is the extra footage used on My Generation because that particular version was only ever released on the "Woodstock Diaries" DVD in 2002. Everything else is from the Blu-ray releases of "The Kids Are Alright" and "Woodstock" the film and bonus features. Like last time, I've added in a countdown timer whenever there wasn't any footage available. Since the camera mixing on every version of Woodstock isn't that good (incorrect shot and cameras being out of sync) I had to cut up every single camera shot individually on all the different versions and one by one correctly resyncing them all to the new remastered audio. The only song with no footage in Shakin' All Over. For the black and white footage, it would play back at various speeds throughout making it quite a challenge to get it all synced up properly but I think it's pretty much spot on now. I have fixed the beginning of Heaven & Hell which now includes more footage of the intro than the old edit. I added in a new bit of footage on Sparks at (15:10) of Roger banging his tambourines together which wasn't in the original edit. Removed a section of incorrect John footage which is now in the correct place at (29:51) on the left side. On We're Not Gonna Take It, the first bit of footage was in the wrong spot, I found the correct section just a little bit later at (41:36) and put it side by side with the other cam. See Me Feel Me has quite a few differences in the overall edit of the cameras. This new edit is a little more cleaned up with a few extra bits of footage added in and one incorrect shot removed that I replaced with another angle. My Generation has a couple very small extra shots added in and for Pete's solo at the end of the show, I opted for just 2 cameras this time instead of the 3 on the old edit. Now its only the footage from the Blu-ray for a more cohesive edit. There are two main things missing from this video. The proshot footage of Summertime Blues from the "Woodstock" Movie and the black and white footage of Sparks, Pinball Wizard and See Me Feel Me. For Summertime Blues, KZbin just simply won't let me upload this video with it included. It gets blocked every time. However KZbin doesn't seem to care when it's used in its own separate video. So I actually made a re-edit of Summertime Blues, removing the incorrect shots and syncing it all up better with the remastered audio. You can watch that here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pYSclmCmerqCbMU As for the extra black and white footage I couldn't include because of the proshot footage used in its place, I've uploaded that as it's own separate video also. One of the best things about this footage is you can actually see Pete kick the director of the Woodstock film, Michael Wadleigh off the stage as he was filming a little too close for Pete's liking during Sparks. It happens at (18:14) on this video, but the cameras don't really catch much of it. I used AI upscaling and frame interpolated on this too for the best quality. You can watch that here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nXLThoCgrturrNU

Still in grade school in '69 and I wouldn't hear Tommy until our middle school music teacher, Mr. Nussbaum, allowed it to be played to our class during one of his record album Fridays. Mr. Nussbaum made the student promise to bring it back next Friday so we could all finish listening. I hightailed it to Westwood Village and bought my first copy of Tommy that weekend for....$3.69. Wore it out by the end of the year. There was never a better rock & roll act than the Who and this video is a welcome tribute to one of the more iconic performances of the '60s. Much appreciated.

@@tangogrrl They arrived by car, and it was one of the worst traffic jams in history, Pete brought his wife and young daughter and was drugged, their set was incredibly delayed from the planned time and the band was basically sleepless, and by the time they did go on a lot of the audience were asleep or starting to leave. Also the band was quite worried about equipment failure at this time due to the mud and rain.

@jakanz Pointing out two nerds that are pretending to be into The Who for likes is not being elitist. Nerd.

[@nkmcfrln]

@jakanz Right off the bat you can see they’re lying. “Pure power that you can’t fuck with” and “monolithically monstrous” is what only a nerd could come with. Have they said or discussed one single thing about John or The Who?

[@shimwooley]

This footage is fantastic ! GREAT JOB !

[@CascadiaCalvert]

Only The Who could not expect Abbie Hoffman to rush the stage, yet seamlessly kick him off, comment almost viciously, then continue on playing the penultimate rock opera. This is like not just being on stage with them but also feeling it as they felt it. So much of the 1960s in one show, a hippie messiah kicked off by Tommy and his campers. They're not gonna take it. And let's remember, they thought this wasn't one of their better shows.

[@lunam3394]

Amazing, playing 5am their hearts out, its legendary. 100 hundreds year from now people look at this show and say that was music in the golden era. It will never be matched

[@lunam3394]

Thank you for the heart

With Auto tune raging, I think they're saying it now

[@blackdog9951]

This is amazing and your great work on this is incredible. Thank you for this important document in Rock music history.

[@nowhereman5640]

Thanks' Monty for your dedicated and excellent work. It is much appreciated.

[@treatmentbound]

It’s a great snapshot in time as Tommy had just been released and it’s great to hear them play most of it live. Moon was still banging full speed here before he started losing it in the early 70’s, and he’s a fun watch. And it’s wild to think there was a time you could see The Who live and they don’t close with “Won’t Get Fooled Again”, as it didn’t exist at this point!

[@paulnicolosi4792]

I saw them live around this time. They were absolutely astounding….

[@tonym994]

Pete's SG period was their best era.

[@johnsummerhill8323]

Terrific. But my ears are still feeling it.

[@Senna-xi1gr]

Absolutely magical moment in time with a magically fantastic band . The legend Mr Peter Dennis Blandford Townshend. True genius 👍💥🥇🏆🇬🇧🎼👍 Thanks for this.

[@alchan9341]

Thank you for posting this. Pete and Roger are known to say this was the worst gig they ever played. I couldn't disagree more. I guess they're relating the bad gig feeling to the horrible backstage conditions, how far behind the schedule was with their set being bumped to the wee early morning hours, Abbie Hoffman crashing their set, and having to follow a blistering set by Sly and The Family Stone. The Who are sounding pretty damn strong.

[@1ericamat]

Epic and enhanced performance by my favourite band of all time

[@tonym994]

my fave also. it sure catches the deafening performance they gave that AM. I only wish I was there.

[@BescotSidings]

Amazing Journey and Sparks - oh my god one of the best performances I’ve ever seen.

[@christianlemelin]

Amazing journey and sparks segment, to me is the best part! Great job!

[@tonym994]

the sound IS superior to earlier versions, by far. I don't recall ever seeing 2 angles on 'My Generation'. that has to be an out take straight from WB's Oscar winning film. even the 'extras' DVD on the 'WOODSTOCK:3 days of Peace & Music' re-issue, my player won't play, Goddam it. the last player I had, which bit the dust, played it, so I don't understand it at all. I've read that it has to do w/ the region I'm in. but Monty, I am impressed! you give us the real Gibson SG sound that the audience 55 years ago, heard. the clarity of sound, warts and all .I shall return to this site.

[@davidviton1065]

Keith Moon just going crazy on those drums😮

[@lib556]

Greatest live rock act... EVER! Good work on this. I was really hoping that you had found... squirreled away in someone's basement or safe deposit box... that missing Abbie Hoffman footage. I'd love to see that.

[@robertcook2680]

Supposedly, the Abbie Hoffman incident was not captured on film. Allegedly, the cameraman was changing the film in his camera right when the incident occurred. Where were the other cameramen? I dunno.

[@BarekHalfhand]

🤟 amazing journey/sparks was intense @ 30:26 Pete rules

Oh no! Check out the Live at Leeds 2000 re-issue that finally included the full Tommy set re-mastered and uninterrupted. Put the speaks in front of yourself, turn it up LOUD, and listen to Live Tommy at Leeds for a mind-blowing operatic experience. According to Townshend, he thought the Who reached their live peak at Isle of Wight, but they were never recorded better than at Leeds.

[@gabbleratchet1890]

They are fantastic. This show was almost exactly 6 months before the Leeds and Hull gigs. They had been touring constantly and were firing on all cylinders. And they still hadn't released Who's Next on an unsuspecting world.@@carlodave9

Real voices and talents that flow freely in the 60s and 70s without technologies that mask the human nature of art.

[@jlsea5817]

This is just magnificent - thank you so much for putting this together. Crushed that the Abbie Hoffman moment didn't survive on camera (but we'll always have the audio) but it's almost made up for by catching the roadie pulling Pete's guitar back out of the crowd.

[@deadringer28]

You put a lof of work into this. Thanks so much.

Possibly the most accomplished band from the British invasion in terms of of instrumental and vocal abilities . They were all virtuoso players and good singers.
