@@user-fu2mi1nd5l Its Philly, so you have to expect that to some extent, but Booing the Clash is one of the dumber things the city has ever done, right up there with bombing its own houses. My older brother went to this show, said the whole atmosphere sucked after that. I went to see the Who a couple years later at Vets Stadium, I was expecting so much but it was one of the less impressive shows I've even been to. Still love to listen to them, regardless.

1982, hell I was already well into my 20s.....Thanks to my older brother who introduced me to The Who, LZ, Cream, and other great bands when I was in ELEMENTARY school, I was already a HUGE Who fan. Now? I'm ancient. Somehow along the way, I blew out my liver, survived a mild bout with cancer, and bested two heart attacks. I like to think that these boys and their High-Test piss-and-vinegar music helped me along the way. Now I am old and just wealthy enough to own a wonderfully outrageous stereo system that I could only dream about in high school. So, I get to enjoy it all over again and exactly the way it was SUPPOSED to sound. I sure do hope my neighbors like them. Thanks Gents!

I was playing this song over and over real loud in my room when I was a kid and my stepdad opened the door and yelled "Turn this sh*t off!". I turned the volume down at first, but I gradually turned it up over an hour or so. He burst into my room and picked up my stereo and smashed it on the ground - and it didn't turn off! He tried again and it kept on playing - even louder! This went on for about 5 minutes and he eventually gave up. He's in prison now for writing bad checks.

I remember him looking at the Jim Morrison poster on my wall with the denim shirt and aviators, and him saying to me "I worry that you like him". I remember him looking at my Cheap Trick poster and telling me Rick Neilson looks like a fag lol. Old men just don't get it. Thankfully I get constant praise from my two grown sons for remaining very cool and up with the times.

Townshend was only 37 at the time and had already released almost all of The Who's entire catalogue, establishing the band as one of the greatest in the annals of rock and roll, and he had already produced a couple outstanding solo albums as well. It is doubtful that we will be blessed with that high level of creative output ever again.

Pete is a monster guitar player and I love his intensity. However, there were a few other great players at Woodstock, including Hendrix and Mr. Santana. I think Carlos' 50-year career has been amazing. Only the Rolling Stones and Santana have had a Top Ten album in SIX different decades. That's pretty impressive. This is meant only to show that great guitarists like Santana, Townshend, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Al DiMeola, Hendrix, Clapton and others compliment each other. They're not in competition. One is not greater than the other. We all have our favorites and yours, Pete Townshend, is among the best!

26 years old here born in the mid to late 1990s. My earliest memories are riding in my dads 1993 dodge pickup truck blaring THE WHO on the cassette deck, the cars, tears for fears, guns n roses, phill Collins, Steve earl, the list goes on. So many older people are amazed at what I listen to. Strictly 70s 80s 90s music. This kind of music has a soul, not made to make money. Times were different and I am jealous of every person who go to experience the 1980s as an adult such a magical time it seemed to be from the outside looking in. It’s a put on.

The video clip is taken from a recorded live concert that was produced originally for HBO television back in 1982. It aired for several months off and on. This particular clip is most certainly taken from the stock of footage where its in its pre-enhanced state before they added more audience and atmosphere sound(s). The crowd cheering at the end of song was thin as only a few mic's onstage picked up the cheering/applause. What we hear on this clip from the band is also in its earliest stages of mixing without much of the enhancement/effect levels that would be added later before broadcast. Thats why it sounds so direct from stage to your ears.

The Who were the best "classic rock" band I've ever seen in concert. I saw on this tour, they played San Diego a couple of months before the show in Toronto. 38 (!) years ago.

AVOLITE I thought was a simulcast - yes it was 1982! - show from Maple Leaf Gardens in Toronto. I guess HBO could have been involved but was the early days of simulcast concerts on a local FM station. Crank the radio and watch the TV. The early days lol

I was there too. Took a bus to Toronto from Ottawa. Watched the video a million times. And now I can get it online. Long Live Rock. And show was at the "home of hockey." Maple Leaf Gardens. Somehow, that made it especially special for me.

I see that this is video from the Toronto show with audio from the It's Hard reissue bonus track. The sound is SO much better on those bonus live tracks. The title track (It's Hard) live from Toronto is awesome too. Thanks for mixing & posting this!

I usually prefer album work over live but this is mind blowing. I can’t stop listening and watching. They have captured a moment in time perfectly. Perfectly in sync. Ox starts off with not much then it’s pure melodious. The drums lock perfectly with bass ( notice the high hat accents). Pete’s guitar soars. The synth arpeggiator actually carries the tempo and drives the song while Roger chunks along cooly fills the sound. The Fender Rhodes, damn. AND look at the clothes! It’s literally a perfect moment in time. And Pete’s ad lib vocals just nails it.

For some reason I really enjoyed it when Townsend did his own singing and solo songs! It’s like he was liberated or freed! Especially Rough Boys and this song! He was really peaking and I really like his reedy voice! Not great but good and unique! You know it’s him! And he looked rejuvenated for his Solo tour! His hair still looked good even! 👏🏻

​​​@pgnandt The lyrics make plenty of sense to me. They're about Miami in the 80s - money, speedboats, coke, girls, etc. People slinging BS and trying to puff themselves up. In other words, an eminence front. Pete said this himself.
