The Who on Shindig! - Can't Explain / My Generation descargar videos gratis

Wayne Swickley

Pete Townshend on Rickenbacker 330 or 360 (can't tell through the video fuzzies), John Entwhistle on Danelectro Longhorn bass. Sweet. The background vocals are fer-what-they-are because producer Shel Talmy had to teach the Who how to do them. He brought The Ivy League ("Tossing and Turning") in to do the background vocals on the Who's early records. Nice piece of history here, despite the film quality. Better than nothing.

Hey....they didn't show much of Pete in this vid. Looks like he's playing a Rickenbacker. Is that a Danelectro Longhorn bass John has?

The High Numbers (the Who before they became the Who) supported The Kinks and even Townsend says I Can't Explain was copied directly from The Kinks! I've had a few drinks so please excuse any typos :o)

TheRecordCollector

@jayfey77 No actually, The who were together in late 63' but under a different band name, called the ''High Numbers''. the Kinks formed when brothers Dave and Ray Davies wanted to form a band in mid 64'.

This is definitely the first rock band ever

Justin McCuller

Kevin Joseph

Keith. Moon.

loscantos

hi keith, wherever you are.......you are the holy father of mod, rock, pop.......drummers., R.I.P for all the eternity

Rob Lamb

that guy in Oasis got it right - if you could write the bass solo from MG down you'd put it on your Headstone . . .

Mwangi Gichohi

its a little known fact that at 3:46 Roger lost the use of his hands due to the intensity of the song only to regain it again at 3:52

MattHatter

Well this goes to show you CERTAIN people knew about The Who back in 1965 and '66 before The Who broke the U.S. charts in 1967 with "Happy Jack." It's still hard to believe that "My Generation" was released here as a single on Decca back in Nov. of 1965 and it did NOTHING!

Rajdeep Lahiri

haha wtf are the girls doing during john's bass solo?????? the 60's were so cool, wish i could go back!!!!!!

VW Floridaz

That was the angry young Mod look of the time. The whole song was about a frustrated young youth (s) not being able to express themselves. ..And the fact that Roger loved a fight ...and still does !!

MsMoonTheLoon

gotta feeling Roger wasn't in the right mood. He looks like something pissed him off :D

MsMoonTheLoon

wow Keith o0 and Roger handsome as always <3

keith murch

us bass players owe john so much because he took us from flat wound strings to round wound stings,rotosound to be exact,evry rock player on the planent owes him big time,and what a great player he was to,he held the who together with bass balls.r.i.p.brother.
