It sounded pretty lame when heard through those tinny little transistor speakers - nearly all John's thunderous bass was lost, and much of the drumming as well. Listening to it on a proper stereo system for the first time was a revelation!

When I bought my first real stereo equipment, one of the first albums I bought was Meaty Beaty Big And Bouncy and was amazed how much better it sounded.

This track was way before Baba O'Reilly, written in 1965 and released as a single in March 1966 reaching No5 in the UK charts. Pete Townshend was becoming an accomplished songwriter by this time and it showed with this track that they werre going to be a force to be reckoned with for years to come. Check out I Can See For Miles from only a year later and you'll see the progress they were making to establish themselves as a much harder sounding unit. Loving your reactions as usual guys, great to see you're still getting turned on to what we oldies were listening to in the sixties, loving every minute..

The Who formed in London in 1962. This was their 5th single, released in 1966. the previous 4 were Zoot Suit, 1964- I Can't Explain, 1964- Anyway Anyhow Anywhere, 1965 & My Generation, 1965. They had 4 Album releases in the 60's as well as 2 compilation albums, one in north America and one in the UK. Who's next was their 2nd album of the 70's after Live At Leeds.

Keith Moon was into amphetamines at this time and was so pilled up on the session he couldn't remember doing it and accused the band of hiring another drummer behind his back. They pointed out that it had to be him because there was no other drummer in the world that screamed in the middle of a take.

Baba Orielly, Bargain, Behind Blue Eyes, Going Mobile, My Wife (hilarious song about John Entwistle's wife that kind of came true), Won't get fooled again and other songs are from Who's Next album. I think their biggest Albums are (Tommy Rock Opera Double album 1969 - Pinball Wizard from this), Who's Next (1971) and Quadrophenia (Rock Opera sort of - double album with The Real Me, 5:15, Lover reign Over Me 1973). Substitute, from 1966 I think. Tommy actually got them invited to classical music venues. Here is one for my age. In 1969 my music teacher in Junior High (middle school) had us listen to the entire Tommy album over 2 classes. Yes, I am old.

If you enjoy their early humor, give "Boris The Spider" a try - written by bass player John Entwistle. Their best live performance (of a great song) is probably "Young Man Blues" at the Isle of Wight from 1970 - Entwistle's in his skeleton suit, and Keith and Pete have such great interaction during the song.

I totally agree, the 60’s stuff is my favourite too and watching them perform (even when miming on Ready, Steady, Go) takes the performance to another level. My Uncle saw them live in a relatively small venue in the West of Scotland in the late 60’s or early 70’s. He said it seemed as though one minute Roger Daltry was next him at the bar then just a few minutes later, he was walking on the stage swinging his mic in great loops before throwing it into the air, catching it and going straight into the first song…by the time I heard this story around twenty years later, the venue was a snooker hall and unimaginable as a music venue.

Great choice and thanks for sharing this. Yeah, this was 1966. Just on the crest of the British Invasion. “Baba O’Reilly” is 1971. As somebody else said in the comments, you can pretty much divide The Who into pre-Tommy, the ultimate rock opera, and post Tommy, which also includes their next great rock opera, QUADRAPHENIA. And much more. “Substitute”, along with “My Generation”, “Young Man Blues” (a cover), “I Can See For Miles” are all pre-Tommy. “Baba O’Reilly”, “Won’t Get Fooled Again”, “Behind Blue Eyes” (all from maybe my favorite Who album, WHO’S NEXT), and later, such as “Who Are You?”, “You Better You Bet”, “Love Reign O’er Me” are all post-Tommy.

An absolute classic from the band's early days! (1966, an entire career before "Baba O'Reilly"/"Behind Blue Eyes"/"Won't Get Fooled Again" and the rest of the 1971 album "Who's Next") Often used as a concert-opener, along with "I Can't Explain", from the same era. (I knew you'd like the line about how he's "passing", as they said back then.) "I Can't Explain" would make a fine reaction, as would "The Real Me" from "Quadrophrenia". (I know you're scared to tackle the "rock opera" albums, "Tommy" and "Quadrophrenia" because you think the songs are too connected to the overall narrative, but they work on their own, honestly. "The Real Me" is the opener, so that would show you what you're in for.) Or you could do more of the key pieces from the "Who's Next" era, such as "Pure and Easy" or "Naked Eye" (especially live for that one). Or, since you dug the Dirty Mac at that "Rolling Stones Rock & Roll Circus" TV show, why not watch the Who blow everyone off the stage at that show with their AMAZING performance of "A Quick One (While He's Away)"? And, as I haven't made enough suggestions yet (sorry!), how about two bands you haven't hit yet? Try some Quicksilver Messenger Service with "What About Me?" or "The Truth". Or go wild with Pavlov's Dog doing "Natchez Trace" or "Did You See Him Cry?". (Some nice connections to bands you already know, but I will save those for when you do QMS or the Dog. [/tease].)

I love these songs from their earlier, London mod era - so much fun! It's a shame you didn't find the video of them performing (probably lip-syncing), with their mod outfits/ vibes. I don't know if Pete experienced some sort of identity crisis in his youth, because he wrote another song on a similar theme of conflict/ confusion -- this time around gender. No doubt that theme would cause a similar political/moral meltdown in some quarters today! It's called 'I'm a Boy'. And another one dealt with a young lad enjoying looking at naughty photos: 'Pictures of Lily'! They're all fantastic songs in any case, an essential part of my early teen years in the 1960s, usually heard on the treasured tinny little transistor radio I carried everywhere with me.

Didn't mean to leave out the girls. The Ronettes, Martha and the Vandellas. To this day Ronnie Spector ( Veronica Bennett) is my favorite female voice, 2nd favorite, Amy Winehouse

This is early, poppy, Who. Late 60s at the latest. The Kinks and Stones were poppy at this time too. Making the album Tommy transformed The Who into rock gods. I love this song. So blunt and sarcastic. Great songwriting: "The simple things you see are all complicated" "Substitute you for my mum, at least I'll get my washing done." Thanks Jay and Amber, your reactions are always a pleasure!

Thank you for recognizing the greatness of The Who. Please take some time to explore both Tommy and Quadrophenia…the entire albums. Both are journeys worth taking.

Pete Townsend was fast becoming one of the best songwriters from the UK back in 1966! Great act, great song!

I'm sure others must have mentioned this, but Keith Moon was so much fun to listen to back in those days. He's killing it on this track. Such a great drummer.

Guys you must watch - Quadrophenia. Also listen to the high numbers, dance to keep from crying. They were before they became the who

You were right about it being before "Baba O'Riley." This song is from 1966. I will always be partial to this song because it was the song playing when I first discovered a community radio show in the early eighties called "Treasures of the Sixties."

I remember playing pinball in our small town Teen Centre to this song. Great stuff.

Start to finish, John Entwistle's bass lines are heard to drive it all along...... stunning!!!!

It's from 1966, but also on the album MEATY, BEATY, BIG AND BOUNCY - compiled by Pete Townshend and released in '71 - one really good album. Meaty was Daltry, Beaty was Moon, Big was Entwhistle and Bouncy was Townshend.

a much newer song called "did you steal my money" from the "face dances" album that is a story type song kind of funny and very sophisticated lyrics, there is really great newer stuff too.

To answer your question, this song is from 1966. You need to check out Love Reign O'er Me by The Who, next!

Well, earlier today I was listening to "My Generation" by The Who and thought that you guys should listen to some of their older stuff and here you are! Peace!
