The Who- At Kilburn:1977 DVD
« on: January 09, 2009, 08:44:28 am »
...anyone get this??
The 1977 disc pretty much sucks!  The best part is the 1969 bonus disc.
This package serves as sort of a public service announcement. Moon is on fire in \'69 and by \'77... not so much. \'Dreaming From the Waist\' (in \'77) Entwistle goes absolutley apeshit, would be a highlight I suppose. It\'s unfortunate that the 1969 show was recorded so poorly beacuse that is what I\'d like to think I spent my $$ on.

by 1977 had they already broken up and gotten back together? :lol: The who are to me a bit of a cliche like KISS. Reunions ever couple of years.

The Who can be a little cliche with the reunions, but the line up of Townshend, Daltrey, Entwistle & Moon are more talented than Simmons, Stanley, Frehley & Criss hands down.  That being said, I also like KISS and feel that they should be in the R&RHOF.

it\'s worth getting for your collection, I guess. Isle of Wight 1970 and The Kids Are Alright are way better. I also have a 1974 Charleton boot DVD that\'s really good...has an awesome \'Drowned\'.
