When the chorus came to me, it haunted my dreams. He said, "I said that this is probably the most heavy metal riff that has ever existed. You can buy the album from – .History Formation and Opus Eponymous era Ī Nameless Ghoul said that Ghost formed in 2006, when the members were in another band together and he played a riff that would become "Stand By Him" to them. If you want the traditional Who sound, then it’s best to forget it. I recommend Join Together if you’re prepared to be open-minded about what the group should sound like live. I really like it but I won’t pretend that it can replace Live At Leeds or Blues To The Bush… and that’s before the great missing live album(s) from the Quadrophenia to The Who By Numbers period that are probably hiding in Pete Townshend’s vault. This is an album where my marking system feels a little stingy. Marks are also lost for missing the sadly departed Keith Moon and The Who were well part their best by this stage and had stopped functioning as a recording group. What the album gains in the performance side because of the brass, it loses in authenticity because it sounds different. I’m giving this a performance rating of 8/10 Here is The Who performing the CSI theme tune, Who Are You in 1989 in LA. The Who bring brass into their live sound which makes the album sound very different from their normal live recordings.Īs far as I’m concerned it works very well and after the excellent Live At Leeds and From The Blues To The Bush, this is the album I listen to when I want The Who with a twist. John Bundrick supports the sound on keyboards and piano. His lead guitar duties are performed by Steve ‘Boltz’ Bolton who used to be a member of Atomic Rooster. Pete Townshend hurt his hand at the start of the tour and he mainly plays acoustic guitar. He does a good job although he’s not Keith Moon. I’ll give Tommy 8/10 and the other CD 10/10 making an overall set list rating of 9/10.īy this stage Kenney Jones had left the band and the drums were played by Simon Phillips.
I’m not crazy about the Tommy CD but I think the second CD is a really interesting mix of songs and makes a nice break from the narrow list of tunes that The Who normally play live. The Who weren’t touring to promote a new album so rather than feature many of the oldies that feature on most live albums by the Who, they played a selection of Pete Townshend solo tracks along with Tommy. Won’t Get Fooled Again – 9:30 (Who’s Next).You Better You Bet – 5:40 (Face Dances).Join Together – 5:15 (single originally intended for the Lifehouse project).Rough Boys – 4:44 (Pete Townshend album Empty Glass).Trick of the Light – 4:49 (Who Are You).Love Reign O’er Me – 6:49 (Quadrophenia).A Little Is Enough – 5:06 (Pete Townshend album Empty Glass).
