Re: the Who's Halftime show |
The best is 'Live at Leeds' - originally just a single album with just six tracks on it, only three of which are Townsend songs. The De-luxe double CD is whole different beast, and really captures them at their peak. Many more Townsend songs on the first disc, and a load of 'Tommy' on the second. Really powerful, and if you were to own only on Who release ....

Re: the Who's Halftime show |
I really liked Pete's acoustic work on the "Secret Policeman's Ball" or some such from the late 70s early 80s...
As I rant on about down below, I think they really deserve to be cut some slack...Dire and Johnny are just ganging up cause we couldn't slice and dice the PATS, so the brits will have to do...and they do, don't they though?

Re: the Who's Halftime show |
I remember that, and I agree! I think they were benefit shows, recorded and released (theatrically?) on VHS and Beta. Crud, what song did he play??
There was a great bit on one of them where a guy teaches you how to "speak" Japanese by being Cold, Constipated and Forgetful.
Dangit, I think he played Pinball Wizard. Is that right?
