Maybe it was who's going to drop first of both Kieths . Moon and Richards were both definitely on the edge for sure. We got lucky with both and both bands performed true to out of control Rock n roll. Saw Zeppelin also in 75 but it wasn't their best night. Bonham was out of it .

EDIT: I just looked it up and this performance was August 3, 1965 and they recorded My Generation on October 13, 1965. Definitely explains why it’s so different as they were still developing it. I wonder if this is the earliest known version of the song.

Wow never seen this version of My Generation before. Of course, I've seen I Can't Explain as it was in The Kids Are Alright, but never seen My Generation before. And of course, here we have a continuation of the "We must never show the musicians during the instrumental parts of songs" thing that plagues virtually every band that's ever appeared on television, with those dancing girls during Entwistle's bass solo. The really funny thing is, as I recall, in The Kids Are Alright, that's the same dancing girls footage that Jeff Stein inserted into the Anyhow Anyway Anywhere montage, later in the film!

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.

So we stood there, and after the taping Regis Philbin came out and him and David letterman we’re good friends so I got a picture of him and the next Angela Bassett came out. I’m guessing she might’ve been promoting her movie. What’s love got to do with it, so I got a picture of her too! And last, but not least who walks out the door by Pete Townshend 🎸 It was a small side street and all these people were getting in the limousines as they came out well, and Pete Townshend walked out the door. We all rest across the street and he looked at me and I got my disposable camera out took a picture.
