    i love this video, i could listen to it for hours. i could hear everything: Pete’s rhythms, John’s bass lines, everything Keith is hitting and when, and Roger’s voice is really clear; the sound quality is unbelievable.

    oh, you’re talking about Keith… well, he has several bios floating around the net, and he said he actually studied films of famous jazz and swing drummers. that’s what they used to do, play with their sticks like that, and what Moon wanted to do more than anything else was to be a great drummer and emulate those guys.

    hmmm, “seems oh so present”. well, i look it (seen the video several times) this way; a bunch of fresh-faced, average (to good) looking kids, a very fresh sound that joyfully pierces and punctuates and doesn’t get stale…

    this is the ‘nitz

    at 05:05, Moon sees the camera close up on him and he gets loosey-goosey with his drumsticks…

    great.

    this video is so good we should be banned from watching it, lol. these are garage band songs, and The Who did these covers better than anybody. any recording they made from 1958-on should be dug up and remastered for distribution.

    so raw, so exciting, so sweet, so natural, so… funny.

    Jolly Green Giant, Farmer John, Mashed Potato, they could have made anything sound great!

    ooh, it has a Daltrey copyright…

    This is real mod stuff – I forgot just how cool we were! And the Who were the coolest band for Mods.

    yeah! i like it! a cool clip, such a sharp image for what it is. you know Lambert and Stamp took a lot more footage than this.

    it’s funny, it looks like Roger and Pete are trying to bring back the dead @ 01:13, some mod, voodoo ceremony.

    Jessie Hill, what a great choice of an artist to cover for them! some of his songs are on YT

    This wasn’t lost for 40 years. Pieces of it appear in the “Kids Are Alright” film from 1979!

    I wouldn’t be too surprised if a couple of more songs from this film turn up.

    Acertaron en convertirlos en una banda mod, lo unico en lo que se equivocaron fue en cambiarles el nombre a the high numbers. The Who es genial, la banda mas potente y energica de la historia.

    You notice The Who can never be accused of copying ANYBODY. God bless them.

    Great stuff…you have to begin somewhere, and this is the Who are their primal beginnings. Great to hear Jesse Hill’s old tune, and them doing Motown…wish there was more of this recorded.

    I love the who because they were never as arrogant as the stones and they were great!
