Bands I really Loved: The Who

in music •  7 years ago  (edited)

The Who formed in 1964. Their Original line-up consisted of lead singer Roger Daltrey, guitarist and singer( Main Songwriter) Pete Townshend, bass guitarist John Entwistle, and drummer Keith Moon.

Selling over 100 million records worldwide and holding a big reputation for both, their live shows and studio work.

Interesting Story I read some where? , Previous names were the Detours and the High Numbers. While playing as one of those , Keith Moon walked up to the Stage and said," I'm better than your drummer" . They tried him, and he was correct!

First Single as the Who was " I can't Explain"

Pete Townshend had a Studio at Home, would write the songs, play all the instruments, Sing, and Press Seven Singles, send them to the others to learn their Parts!

The Who were instrumental in the development of the Marshall Stack and the Much Bigger PA Systems that came into use.

They were also one of the first Rock Bands to start using Synthesizers!

They truly understood the meaning of LOUD!

They were famous as well for wrecking instruments on stage, I believe the first one was an accident, on hearing the applause Pete just carried On!

I recall they were doing a big show in America, Pete Townshend asked if there was a Drummer in the House?

Keith had fallen off the Drum Stool unconscious ! He had decided to try the effects of a Horse Tranquilizer as a new Drug?

Those years everyone was into the Beatles and the Rolling Stones!

When I first heard The Who's "Anyway, Anyhow, Anywhere , I was sold!

Very Unfortunately Keith Moon Died in 1978 and proved somewhat difficult to replace!

I have just realised that this is never going to fit in one Post , so I will leave you in suspense for the Moment ?, but will Continue

In this case its no problem, the song I do like much; what Great the WHO was.

interesting and very different style

Those years everyone was into the Beatles and the Rolling Stones!
i can feel it very deeply

the weekend is made interesting with this one :D

Didn't know about the Who band but judging by their story reputation amazing performance feels like I've missed them when I needed them.

I like the kind of songs they make when I'm sad to cheer myself up but it always had been hard to find more and more songs like those, I'm sure there are just a lot of these unique arts here and there but hard to bring to the light.

This is what you call passion for music. Actually music has no specific boundaries or cages it is basically a pray @awgbibb

I am much obliged that you introduced me to this inspirational Band.
How charming words you used to describe them

Wow...what a concept..that was awesome.

I love music dear @awgbibb
nice music

The Who were a great band. Too bad they didn't hang it up after Moon died. Kenny Jones is a very good drummer, but nobody else could play like Moon.

Actually Zak Starkey, Ringo's Son made a very good Moon replacement when he joined later!

Thanks for the info. I'll have to check it out.

they are best at their time, cool and energetic music by WHO.

the weekend is made interesting with this one :D

Hey @awgbibb

This is possibly one of my most favourite moments in all the songs from The Who, so freaking epic.

Should start at 04:25, just skip through otherwise \m/

"LOOOOOOOOVE! REIGN OOO'ER MEEEEE!!"

Brilliant , Thanks for this!

@awgbibb wow nice i love the musice

Great post! a couple of days ago I had either Spotify or Pandora on and was able to listen to Pin Ball Wizard. In the 1970's I spent a lot of time listening to these guys. I still have some records boxed away...need to locate a turn table.

Wow, Your Post is Great!!!

wow really nice music tnx for share

nice song & video...thanks for post.

Great post good work on the post

Best work you did on post @awgbibb my friend god bless you

I remember the girl next door calling me over to listen to one of their songs because they used an expletive in it - she had a one year old she was raising(?) I remember rolling my eyes and telling her to grow up. She didn't take tranks, however, so that was a saving grace :)

I suppose one can be grateful for small mercies then!

ha ha, it was probably the first time I acted my age - we just had a child of our own - parenthood will do that sometimes (it didn't last) :)

The First time you have to Bail one of your Kids out tends to mist up those Rose-Coloured Spectacles!

ha ha, true...it would :)

wow amazing band i haven't heard any song of them its seems very famous one and you like it alot ... good one

Wow, @awgbibb, Keith Moon did a great job. If you have talent then speak up, show it, otherwise how this world will know that you have this amazing talent in you.
Anyways, you have a great choice. All these videos are superb.
thanks.

wow!!!!!so nice song.i cant remember had i ever heard so nice song

Really you are great. what a concept..that was awesome.like 100%
i love music dear @awgbibb

Nobody will ever replace Keith Moon! I’m a guitar player and by default- I’m not usually as inspired by a drummer like I would be a guitarist. But Moon, he had a fire inside him that the world couldn’t reproduce. He was one of a kind. There are certainly plently of great drummers out there - Ginger Baker, Neil Peart, Danny Carey- a personal favorite...but Moon was a special dude and that’s part of what made The Who so damn Magical. “WHO ARE YOU? I REALLY WANNA KNOW”

Great post wonderful nice sound .........////////

this one is my favorite The Who song, first heard in Supernatural TV show :)

Such an underrated group, they did kind of get lost in between the Beatles and Rolling Stones, and the couple of other things that happened between then and Keith Moon's passing. I believe at one point they held a Guiness Book of World Record for something to do with being the loudest music act up to that point. Is your user name a salute to Andy Gibb? Thanks for the post.

its my favorite too now music is love :D

Cool! I listened to this group about 30 years ago. It's good to know that there are still fans of such music.

wow great songs and a great band.. thank you @awgbibb sharing about them
Cheers!

One of my favourite bands. I think Roger Daltrey had one one the greatest screams in the business.

this is nice one...

That is amazing!!
