TOMMY: The Movie (1975) - Sound-track - Part 1 / Vinyl LP Sides 1 & 2

This is the sound-track from a movie made from the "Rock Opera", Tommy. Some are sung, many are all-instrumental, so it's wonderful background music, even if you don't know the album (or band!) - but for fans or the interested in an amazing journey....

I haven't heard this in years; did a radio show and made a tape with a chunk of this. Who? Yes. No, Who. Who's on first... 🙀

#TheWho #Woodstock

According to Roger Daltrey, the Woodstock festival (1969) was "the worst concert they ever played". Scheduled for Saturday night, the Who finally performed at 5am on Sunday.

Unreceptive to the hippie movement, Pete Townshend pulled him off the stage and yelled, "Get off my stage! At the end of the concert, he threw his guitar into the audience.
