The Who I'm Free '77

[@Scoots_lolzzzzz]

1:57 - ‘well this wasn’t fu**ng worth filmin’ might as well send the cameraman home.’ Priceless.

[@randallleonard4344]

Ill never forget my first concert. December 6 1973 Capitol centre,Landover Md. Front row for The Who.Warm up band was an unknown southern band named Lynyrd Skynyrd! I caught a can of beer tossed into the crowd from Ronnie Van Zant! Watching Pete I just could not believe anyone could jump so high. those windmills and scissor kicks were amazing.keith moon s hands were a blur . A helluva intro to live rocknroll!

[@randallleonard4344]

By the way, the tickets were $6.00 !!!!

[@DR-mq1vn]

My husband was at the concert too!

[@robertkess9907]

That would have been the Quadrophenia tour right? Do you remember if Keith Moon had added that second row of drums by then?

[@VallinSFAS]

I saw them same venue 1976. Pete actually refers to that gig in his autobiography.

[@tennesseeridgerunner5992]

Fairies have been known for being light on their feet and light in their loafers so it makes complete sense that Pete was so acrobatic.

[@djc1234]

1:50 Hahahaha -- Keith laughing, then looked all serious when Pete looked a him. Such a character. And a very mischievous, naughty boy :)

[@ricosuavementee]

Lol never noticed that

[@daves2058]

Love the raw sound on this version!

[@nothingposted9056]

One of their best renditions

[@BubbaHubba-zy2kf]

I'll never forget my first concert... My dad told me to get in the car and shut up and don't ask questions. I didn't think anything was weird because he always said that. He would always hit me and then smile and take me to ice cream or whatever. This night was different... We pulled up to the theatre and it read THE WHO and I asked my dad "who?" It turned into an Abbot and Costello skit up until my dad popped me in the mouth and said "THE NAME OF THE BAND IS THE WHO!"

[@Scoots_lolzzzzz]

when I'm sad or mad, nothing makes me fell better than this. NOTHING.

[@BubbaZen10]

It was worth it to me mate. Seeing this is priceless!

[@thomaskruth1139]

One bad ass drummer glad i saw this

[@ernestkinas5973]

The last time Keith ever performed on I'm Free. Sad.sad.sad.

[@jeneeblatzer4441]

Indeed!

[@AlembicExplorer]

0:07 damn that into was CLEAN

[@Weirduniverse2]

this version is so awesome!

[@safranpollen]

I saw them.lve 1975 and 1976 _ .it was a Rock n Roll Tsunami 🔥💥🔥💥🔥🙏

[@RegionPhilbis]

love -- LOVE -- listening to this track live! 8^)

[@julikun724]

It starts to go off the rails at 1:09 or so, where Pete and John get crosswired -- John plays the root of the chord that ends the verse, while Pete plays the correct chord. Pete starts glowering at John right there. It's not so much Moon's issues, who always sounded that rattletrap, but if The Ox starts clamming notes, you can't keep the take

[@terrypussypower]

And the crazy thing is…no one in the crowd would’ve noticed or given a toss. But to Pete, being the perfectionist he was, it would’ve been like a knife in the gut!

[@MrAschiff]

I don't know what Townshend is talking about. It sounded great to me.

[@neilrushworth5958]

Sublime ❤

[@lutherbstokes9269]

Watching these videos from 77 .........Keith was the fn best !

[@laurencelevene4333]

It was brilliant Pete. More powerful and energetic than the original version

[@valkillion6869]

& 2 great scissors jumps!

[@AlembicExplorer]

“Well this wasn’t fucking worth filming”

[@strettoasino9006]

The WHO had a concert on a soundstage for a film and we're criticized... Led *eppelin does a film to play in theaters of a concert and are cheered on...

[@GuyPlatteau-xy2sr]

C'a fait plaisir de revoir KEITH MOON the loon RIP John ox et Keith ♂️🎸⭕❌🥁🎤👍🕷️ ( Guy platteau Marseille France 😎 )

[@sameliusastraton4670]

Woke up to this, every morning, Sure got my Life in Gear... Try it OUT, better than any Therapy... Man... A few Weeks, of this... Your on top of the World... (Personal LIMITATIONS, May APPLY.. but NOT, If your FREE...) John Inman Need Not Apply... LOL

[@aren2822]

😊 I'm free too, left my work and the stupid people around me.

[@annsmith1922]

Look at the shine on Peters hair!!!!🤓😘

[@StephanJK]

Amazing stuff

[@KR-ki9hw]

Still great, even with the roughness.

[@jackcrane7853]

EVEN?

[@keikoasmommy]

We've seen them twice~ I would go every time they came to town if I could. I wish I could have seen them back in those days, too. IMHO, they are right up there with Led Zeppelin.

[@putinscat1208]

Love this version from Tommy over the original which is slower.

[@fernandomaron87]

Yeah this is the movie version, way faster.

[@jaysiegel4742]

good energy...

[@paultiplady]

And they are still going !!!!

[@paultiplady]

Legend Band

[@markschalk9484]

rough but better than stuff today

[@tamegomait]

Amazing band

[@jonmorr777]

Great stuff

[@mrgjg]

The Who’s in town, lock up the women and children! That’s what The Who means to me and I love it.

[@classicrockmachine]

The legends! ❤

[@matthewrzechowski]

Pete’s guitar sounds awesome…just a little awesome for being live. Definitely edited and cleaned up in post production. Fine by me!😎

[@pestaneira]

The best.

[@derekmtheriault]

#ugottalisten2b4udie perfect so glad it was filmed

[@marcduperron6062]

I was deaf, dumb, and blind. Now, I'm free. I'm a computer programmer wizard.

[@matthewrzechowski]

Moon is a hot mess on the drums. Luv it!🤣

[@lionelwilder327]

very good

[@sk8taway]

Moon is the eternal flame 🔥

[@DavidGangemi]

This whole show was more punk than Punk actually ever was! And it wasn't even meant to be.

[@Rocknweb]

I AMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM FRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE !!!

[@theonlyantony]

Hate to see this wondrous band struggling through one of their simplest songs. Not long left for the genius Moon, at this point. The Bertrand Russell of drums, perished a year later. 'May as well send the camera man home,' said Pete.

[@gb032645]

Even "struggling," there's nobody today who could touch them as a live act.

[@paultiplady]

Tommy !!!!

[@djohanson99]

Right now I believe there would have no Who if Keith never should up when they ad their first drummer. Keith was te grease that made Who.

[@marknorman8133]

Fucking brilliant nothing without prte

[@aniramtemp]

Так непросто найти свою музыку. Я до сих пор точно не знаю, где она. Время покажет.

[@aldahafilippin9823]

E hoje, 21/02/21, sale una noticia de que Pete y Daltrey podrían volver a juntarse para un nuevo disco! DIOSES...escuchad!! SI!!!!

[@tmx63]

Keith is great here.

[@BBQFanNo1]

hahahahaha this wasn't worth f***in' filming. Classic Pete rant hahahahaha

[@bedrosnersesyan6975]

LOL Peter u funny man at the end....smh

[@HIJT2FAUTIKA]

"how can we follow? where the fuck are we?" lol

[@valkillion6869]

Go Pete, 2 jumps in under 2 minutes.

[@Scoots_lolzzzzz]

0:00 you don’t see me 0:02 now you do

[@christianebonnaves5783]

The Who super

[@hanno-erdmanntietz8424]

At Kilburn Keith Moon was showing signs of very poor health. Years of boozing had taken quite a toll on his body.

[@RegionPhilbis]

check out Daltrey's crisp vocals... pity his voice got trashed when he came down with the vocal chord dysplasia...

[@dano4876]

RegionPhilbis trashed ? Don’t think so ...

[@seamushehe]

Shepperton Studios?

[@vibekeschneidermann689]

Kilburn

[@Yaddayadda1234]

Is there a taped whole concert from this show? Ive seen Baba and Won’t get fooled again from kids are alright but this is new to me

[@TheOBViOUSChannel]

Here you go... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Who_at_Kilburn:_1977?wprov=sfti1

[@malachaiedwards2718]

Electric blast out the bloody gate! But, alas, the cats rushed this one. Pete catches that, I think. But to interrupt a song, like that, consumed by ego. My pet peeve with The Who, the only one. Everyone is on it, but, as I say, rushed, rushing, gushing. Simply compare the studio track. BUT, live is live. I know this to be true. Live has its own rules. One can only yield to them.

[@BarryMiller2956]

they had pretty much reached the end of the song. maybe that's where they planned to end it anyway.

[@robertkess9907]

That was a bit rough even for the Who, have you seen the bridge, I ain't seen the bridge, where's that confounded bridge.

[@jasonkeith9317]

Pete hated Led Zep.

[@johnclouse8554]

Jesus !

[@trainspotter360]

Yass

[@PaulYoungMinnesota]

Dance music

[@neilbillybob3065]

FUCKING GREAT

[@putinscat1208]

Does anyone think Roger and Pete could play Bill and Ted?

[@sameliusastraton4670]

Be Exellent to each other, and PARTY ON, DUDES.

[@tyronejefforeillyramirez7961]

Beavis and Butthead

[@technogamia]

How can we follow?

[@luisanamillan877]

19 FEBRERO 1970

[@fliederrix]

Keith Moon did his job, already as a very worse alcoholic - and Pete not much better.

[@moosey62]

My French mates used to tell me: Ze Woo! We love ze woo! I'd tell them how shit their accents were and they'd tell me how painful it was to listen to my French! Ah! So long ago..

[@patriceguegan4736]

tellement sous-éstimés

[@maryk446]

I guess it's just a matter of taste. I love this song. And I loved the versions done at Woodstock and Isle of White. But this version doesn't do it for me. It's too fast.

[@R0kushi]

Why did Pete said it wasn't worth filming it? I don't get it

[@SquallLionhart409]

I recall somewhere saying they basically had no rehearsal time and hadn't been touring together for a good while. The performance wasn't very clean. They also kinda ****** this song up, so he was probably a bit pissed about that too. The Who were a band that relied far more on raw energy than anything else, so I think this was easily worth filming. (Bear in mind, filming a band costs a **** of a lot more than grabbing a camcorder, especially in 1977)

[@mattdinon5555]

SquallLionhart409

[@donkkong5551]

I think he was frustrated with Keith's addiction and his sloppiness..

[@georgeprice7922]

I think also Pete's Hiwatts picked this show to start to fart out on him. There's another clip from this same DVD (can't remember the song right now, but it's on here),and you can see Pete is finally almost at the "smash-it-all-up" point and initially just knocks some stuff off the top of the speaker cabinet, he suddenly yells at his roadie (poor Alan) then completely shoves the top Hiwatt head off of where it's sitting...and suddenly- the sound improves 1,000%.

[@johnbazy]

I think it's just that they fucked up the transition and skipped Pete's solo and the last verse from the song.

[@Skyy-avari]

Theres pete trying to act like he is something, buy no. !!!

[@wrsawy]

Moon is in bad shape .... he's at the end.

[@wrsawy]

Pete knew it was ending.... Keith couldn't keep up. He was fat and bloated at this point. Daltrey was in good shape, John and Pete were solid, Keith was dying.

[@davemakarchuk5127]

Pete screwed up this one, not Moon

[@tyronejefforeillyramirez7961]

Yeah but sounded to me Pete was the one sounding sloppy

[@davedaveson100]

They where broke!

[@JoeRivermanSongwriter]

Not a happy bunny

[@GlenMcAllister]

Oh for Pete's sake… :)

[@jefftateii9403]

I fuckin love Keith Moon. I do. But at this point his drumming was a pale imitation of himself in say 1969. You can only drink so much and consume so many amphetamines till you are left with what you see here.

[@fabfab4090]

Pete c est complètement planté sur le pont ou chorus... c est un version catastrophique qu ils ont vite abreges .

[@chrismorfas7515]

Keith looks awful but drums pretty well here.

[@robertkess9907]

Yeah as they used to say in the old days, he needed a blow, not some blow, but a rest as he was clearly not in tour shape physically. He looks even worse in the 78 footage, very labored and sluggish. I've always wondered if he would have been sacked form the band had he not passed away, there were some accounts that it was inevitable and that he knew it, which is maybe why when he died his stomach had 32 undissolved pills he was taking to help curb his alcoholism. Even Keith Moon couldn't get that confused, that's a half a bottle.

[@riddlescom]

Stay off drugs kids. This is what coke does

[@phenixreturns]

the Audio mix for the drums is bad

[@Del-yv1qy]

8 wankers do not like this.

[@Groucho-tg1tx]

They could never get this jam right???

[@rumblepot]

Time changes were beyond moon at this point. His laughter at the end seems like a defense mechanism. Very complicated simple song...........
