John Entwistle, 5.15 - the Last Solo video free download

Thunderfingers is pure badass! If it weren't for him, rock bass players would still be plunking around in the background, meandering at the bottom, never making an emotional connection. He transformed the bass guitar into a lead instrument in rock! Ox, why the hell did you do what you did? Dammit... we miss you, man...you're too awesome... ;'(

Entwistle always played strange stuff in his solos, but here he was pulling out all the stops as they say. He looks like he was having so much damn fun. It's good to remember him like this.

James Machalik

The Ox is the best that Ever was! The Who should have disbanded after his death out of respect.

No dude, Kenney Jones was brought in as a timekeeper. Perhaps you're not old enough to remember that era. Zak was brought in as a cross between Simon Phillips and Keith Moon and he does a great job of it. Yob.

JoshDone

Dude, wake the fuck up - You don't start playing flash over someone else's solo. Zak is the perfect foil for The 'Oo.

EpicValleyStudios

I agree with MrModDog and your second point. Keith Moon couldn't be controlled he would just play wherever and whatever. Zach was basically brought in as a timekeeper but there are other videos of him going off and he's capable. I sure do miss Entwhistle too.

Eggyheed

haha the who not heavy they practically invented hard rock

biggebrein

He probably has done that :-)

Dean Lickerbelly

that is zachs job here is just to fill in with a back beat nothing special, not to take away from the bass solo

@heavymaskinen LOL just noticed this reply. Anyway, no. Just...no.

We couldnt see John play alot of the solo because he stuck close to the amp line during it, but he came back during the brief break and had a smoke behind the stacks and waved up at the bunch of us sitting up there - best sound I ever heard at a concert until then, I started buying side-stage seats ever after that.. It is so amazing to see a fan clip from virtually our view, only better.

chalyk

So fantastic that you filmed this, you must have been within sight of us at this gig, I saw it with my future wife from the restricted-view seats just behind John's side of the stage. (We'd gotten engaged the day before and went and bought a ring after the fact that day in Ealing Common, though we we over on a trip from Canada at the time).

manu57ize

i agree with videosam ...Zack is generous but no genius ....

Dante DiCarlo

@videostan yeah but Zak is not supposed to be doing anything spectacular here, it's John's solo - this is not a Heven And Hell type situation where everyone is soloing at once.
