[@davidacevedo8620]

You know, the bass player is not the showman in the band, but no doubt he did his job excellently, his bass playing has been impeccable thru the ages and I'd say he has a lot to do with the success of the band as a whole, and I guess the only one that isn't gesturing and jumping around. Roger, well, imagine Queen without Freddy, that's what Roger is to the band. Pete, the songwriter and along with Keith the eyecatchers of the group, no doubt. I admit, I have rediscovered the band, didn't know much about it until "Who Are You" back in the middle seventies, but watching their videos I recognized the sound at the beginning and since it has stuck to my mind. Keith Moon, well, Keith is a big powerhouse in the band, I have always liked his style of drumming, which reminded me of a video I was watching of Rush, "Tom Sawyer" and in one of the sudden glances at the band drummer I saw this guy that very much looked like Keith and asked myself if it was possible that Rush's recording was before Moon's passing because this guy played, drummed very similar to Moon, and of course Googled it. Come the discussion about the proverbial egg or chicken first appearance, since these two musicians play, to my understanding, very much alike. Who found who? Who cares, what I care is the both, Neil Peart and Keith Moon have easily been a big part of the band successes. It is a shame they both passed away. I can't imagine any of the bands without them, although both drummers were of course replaced. Baba O'Riley is one of them anthems for The Who, a band that was discovered by the 90's generation by the CSI Miami theme song, whoever made that choice of using The Who song made a great choice, the people from that decade who grew up watching Caruso and the show now know The Who has been making great music since the early 70's. The Who is a great band, even without Moon. Now I rest my case.

[@johndavis1217]

@@davidacevedo8620 Peart and Who, easily in the top three of rock drummers. Geddy Lee and Entwistle easily in the top three bassist. Alex and Towshend are two overlooked guitarist.

Between John and his thunder fingers and Keith being all over the place actually it was Pete and his prefect timing that kept the band in time. Maybe not on this song per say but normally it was just that way.

[@forestfeet5769]

This is unique for its time because the synth loop doesn't allow for any tempo fluctuation which is why Keith is wearing headphones here. Nowadays most big acts have all members wearing in ear monitors and are playing to backing tracks with a click. This particular song is sort of an early precursor to that method. The Wall live performances by Pink Floyd are an even better example because everything had to sync up with the on screen projections and continuity between songs.

[@geofreyr]

Is that right - is that the role of the bassist? (fascinating to me because I have studied on a tiny bit of music comprising of only level 1 theory), but have no idea about practical stuff like that, it's really interesting!

In the era of the late '60s and early '70s, pretty damn good. The late 60s was a veritable Big Bang of musical Talent featuring some of the finest singer-songwriters and instrumentalists ever to walk on this planet. We just took it for granted and thought that music would always be like that. Boy were we wrong about that. We slipped from this kind of stuff into fucking Disco, of all things. Now I might like three or four disco songs but considering how many were written and got monster air time that's not a very good ratio of like to dislike.

The bar was empty except for the Who who were all in front of us leaning on the bar. They all turned around as the door slammed as we walked in. The Who had bought Shepperton Studios around that time. About a year later I was in the bar with some "2nd division roady" friends at the Warren Lodge one night (a very small hotel opposite The Anchor owned by the same guy) in walks Roger Daltrey who had had his head shaved for the part in the movie McVicar they had been filming at Pinewood (I think).

[@wyattblackwood3927]

Sad to say but the Golden Age of rock and roll is long gone and bands like this, Led Zeppelin and all of those other fantastic artists of the 70s will never be seen again. All these guys were Rock royalty !!

[@bluesman0903]

Can't disagree with that, am so glad I lived in this great time of rock, 70's was a fine time to be alive.

[@cleawox]

I dunno. I was there...but damn, young people are coming along all the time and someday, I believe, they will grab the torch and take it further down the path...it's just a matter of time :)

This sounds amazing. Love the bass! Moon died in 1978, so this is a 1978 presentation.

[@johnthonig1692]

Yep

From the movie premiaired 1979.

I remember once driving and this song came on the radio. I was jamming away in my car and a friend, she was driving opposite direction, doing the exact same thing. Next time I saw her she said “I caught you.” Lol good memories

[@kevinhughes1659]

This (this performance in particular) is THE best version of Baba O' Reily they ever recorded--it equals if not tops the studio version. This is from the Kilburn 1978 performance--one of Moon's last. they did two shows that day, with nearly identicle set lists. this particular one from the kids are allright differs from the DVD release, but it is very similar--but its better, that's my point

[@f.valencia163]

yeah mate!, sounds very good this version!!!

[@nayr87]

Shepperton Studios Filming for there Movie

[@pulsarlights2825]

Is it live or did they overdub it a little? I do agree, it's my favorite version, even better then "Who's Next". However "Won't Get Fooled Again" is better on "Who's Next" compared to the Shepperton versions....

[@14moldyhamsandwich]

Pulsar Lights 100% overdub

[@robertkees6048]

Clearly this is not from Kilburn which was filmed in 1977 and Keith Moon wore a purple sparkle stage outfit. This is from 1978 at Sheperton Studio, and if you notice every member of the group is wearing the same outfit as Kilburn other than Keith Moon, who could no longer fit into that outfit cause he'd gained too much weight.

I waited in line to get a wristband and scored tickets to see the Who at Giants Stadium in the Meadowlands back in '89 and it was a life changing experience. People camped out and partied for 3 days in the parking lot!

One of the greatest bands ever ! 😊😊😊

[@chrisconlan8123]

The Who, my favorite band!

[@lesfoliesbergere3997]

I thank God for music, for without it's magic I would a be perfect example of failed humanity. This band and this song have been my soulmates for decades now, perhaps one of the reasons I am still respirating. I am saddened by the impossibility of attending all the performances of bands that I grew up with, even more so in finding out they are not immortal and neither are their fans. I know life is much more than Rock music, yet humanity would be an alien reality (to me) without it. These performers, by virtue of their gifts and their passion, have ever filled my heart with good thoughts and feelings. I am grateful to the uploader and KZbin for this beautiful rendition of Baba O'Reily.

Love this very much. It is awesome. Brings me back to my twenties. Roger Daltrey was a really good singer. And what sensitivity and intelligence in this song.

[@brooks5656]

These guys knew they were way more than just musicians. The production value is off the charts. So glad this was made on film.

[@bjs001001]

Such a great band and such a great song. They really knew how to capture the emotions of the moment. They were way in tune with the world and their audience.
