Bands I really Loved: The Who # Continued
The Who came out with the Concept of a Rock Opera, where the Albums songs followed an ongoing story!
The Songs from Tommy were brilliant and it was made into a Movie .
I even had a Vinyl Album by the London Symphony Orchestra performing Tommy, Excellent!
The Who's "Live at Leeds " album was considered by many, to be the best Live Album , ever recorded!
It was not filmed , so I have supplied you with a full Live Concert below, also Outstanding!
Not content with the Success of Tommy , The Who Constructed another Rock Opera , Quadrophenia about the Mods and Rocker Gangs and some of the Strife between them.
Also made into a Movie ( Sting was in it)
You can find the Movies on YouTube if you wish to see them?
John Entwistle died in a Hotel Room in 2002 , one day before the first concert of their American Tour!
Four Days Later they carried on with their Tour!
My opinion below but what do I know?
To me the only Bassist who could have really done him justice was Billy Sheehan!

I have posted these as a Tribute to probably the most innovative Rock Band ever!
Another Great YouTube Video you can find on Youtube is The Amazing Journey-The Story of the Who.
Great bands and music. Really loved them.
Very nice band with original style

Rock Opera Amazing Old GOld
Beautiful Fairy Tale illustration ✨
Good stuff. I've seen the movie Quadrophenia but not the other one. I've never really been a fan of The Who but that's mainly because I don't know much about them, so need to do some more research of my own!
I thought Movie -wise , that Tommy was better!
Ok… well that sounds like a plan for a quiet Sunday afternoon - watch Tommy!
So, Hope you enjoyed Tommy , today?
No, I didn't see it! It wasn't quite the quiet Sunday I had planned… but it's on the list as one of the next movies to watch :)
I think long time ago the brand they are play better than right now good I’m enjoy 😉
Something special The Who's "Live at Leeds " album.
The concert is mind blowing. And I will must take a deep look on Who. This is so beautiful thing which I got in 2018. Thanks for sharing and Stay Blessed dear @awgbibb!
