Description
They are one of the greatest rock and roll bands of all time. For over four decades, they have changed modern music as we know it. But some of their most famous performances have never been released... until now. On December 15, 1977, The Who performed before a select invited audience at the Gaumont State Theatre in Kilburn, North London, to record a concert for Jeff Stein's film, The Kids Are Alright, which turned out to be one of the last live performances by drummer Keith Moon. Shot in 35mm, this holy grail for fans has been digitally restored and remastered in high-definitiion for the ultimate The Who experience. This set also includes The Who's powerhouse London Coliseum gig from 1969, a never-before-seen rarity and one of the band's personal favorites. Take an amazing journey with The Who like you've never seen or heard them before, featuring their greatest hits and hours of incredible footage! It's the rock discovery of the year! Two incredible concerts - totaling 138 minutes! Kilburn Songs: "Can't Explain," "Substitute," "Baba O'Reilly (Teenage Wasteland)," "My Wife / Going Mobile," "Behind Blue Eyes," "Dreaming from the Waist," "Pinball Wizard," "I'm Free," "Tommy's Holiday Camp," "Summertime Blues," "Shakin' All Over," "My Generation," "Join Together," "Who Are You?," "Won't Get Fooled Again." London Coliseum Songs: "Heaven and Hell," "Can't Explain," "Fortune Teller," "Tattoo," "Young Man Blues," "A Quick One While He's Away," "Happy Jack," "I'm a Boy," "I'm Free," "Tommy's Holiday Camp," "See Me, Feel Me," "Summertime Blues," "Shakin' All Over," "My Generation" Plus 70 minutes of rare Coliseum bonus tracks and extended versions including the first-ever long performance of ?Tommy.?

 simply amazing June 24, 2009
One cannot describe how great this band was. Keith Moon was arguably the greatest rock & roll drummer that ever lived. His frantic style and continuous energy has set a standard that few have ever lived up to.
John Entwistle could easily be described as a "lead" bass guitarist. His performance from "dreaming from the waist" was awe-inspiring.
It's sad that these two performers have passed away. The sound that the who created with these two will always be influential to any british invasion classic rock enthusiast.
Pete Townsend is a genious.
Roger was and is one of the best frontmen.
Watch both dvd's. I've watched it atleast 20 times already and am always amazed. The live version of tommy in disc 2 extras is far better than the studio album or the movie.
The only downside to this dvd is the poor video quality and looped footage during "a quick one".
Buy this dvd. After watching this, you too will love the who.
keith moon's finale live show June 12, 2009
This was an excellent WHO concert, captured on film at the peak of their illustrious career, it looked and sounded great. I highly recommend it to any serious who fan.
Value For Money, Lovingly restored & Produced DVD June 8, 2009
The Who have produced some brilliant DVDs over the past decade. They always include a lot of extras and the booklets are very informative and fun to read.
This DVD is as good as it gets as well. The performances are amazing and the sound and picture quality on the 1st DVD Kilburn 1977 is exceptional.
The 2nd DVD in the set is grainy but it's also a vital DVD to see and have for it's musical quality. The sound is a bit rough but it doesn't interfere with the enjoyment.
I have brought all the Who DVDs and this is at the standard I have become used to.
Well done guys!
 Excellent for the new fans of THE WHO May 31, 2009
Well, didnt know that much about the band, but this bluray deffinently introduced me to the legend. buy if you want to here the best spng of "the who".
Who Knew? April 12, 2009
Seminal Who performance. Although staged for the filming of The Kids are Alright it is classic Who at their best, right down to an angry Pete yelling at the crowd. One of the last to feature Kieth Moon before his death. If you want a more realistic raw performance check out the Isle of White concert.
