The Isle of Wight 1970 version is best, that whole concert is on youtube and it’s amazing!

[@moozartney]

Agreed. That concert changed my life.

[@brianshockledge3241]

It`s not the whole concert unfortunately there`s around 30mins of footage lost.

[@brianshockledge3241]

Footage missing 1921/Amazing Journey/Sparks/Eyesight To The Blind/Tommy Can You Hear Me/Smash The Mirror/Substitute/Naked Eye. Although Naked Eye can be found on the multi billed dvd.

[@daveepelone6221]

I think the version from the 1970 Tanglewood concert is even better, the sound quality is definitely so. That entire Tanglewood show is phenomenal.

I remember when I first heard this as a bonus track on Who's Next, and realised this couldn't make it onto the original LP. That says something for how good the band was then - terrific stuff!

[@theprogwalrus7564]

very underrated song

[@spraylakkmagazine]

The Who is one of the founding fathers of the 60's and 70's rock/hard rock! Pioneers and legends.

[@formattc]

I saw them in '89 but I sometimes wish I were ten years older. I was about 3 years-old during Isle Of Wight.

[@Mauricio4612]

Without a doubt The who was one of the most notable groups of classic rock of the decade of the 60s and 70s, truly a great group, their songs are unforgettable, Greetings

[@erictripton]

This song F ing ROCKS, cool chords by Pete....

[@TheKidsAreAllRed]

Live tracks aren't usually this good. I'm impressed.

[@brianjacob8728]

The who is one of the few bands that are better live than in the studio. Think about how tough that is to achieve...

[@etrius24]

we need water and maybe... somebody's daughter.... holy shit that is amazing

[@BigDaddy-xx1gk]

My survival depends upon your daughter, sir. So, bring her out.

[@etrius24]

just amazing that it took them a decade to get this good... most bands fizzle out long before that.... This band was still getting better.... Roger's vocals were still progressing.. the writing was absolutely progressing..

Absolutely one of their best albums. Pete is amazing, Keith.. well who was better? Roger, probably one of the best Rock and Roll singers, and then there is John. Not a better bass player before or after.. Truly an amazing band.

[@michaelgreene582]

It took about 10 years before I heard this again. Great song. Pete really shreds on it and I love his tone. Roger really delivers and it is arguably his finest vocal performance on tape. Keith is great as always. John's performance is noticeably average.

The Odds and Sodds version is cleaner then this, but the drums on this particular version are pretty epic in comparison (at least I think so). Makes you feel alot more like dancing.

@rnargi I think Pete had it mostly figured out; it's just that no one else understood 'Lifehouse' as a concept, and Kit Lambert wasn't there to help make sense of it for the others.
