Concert business is doing well, but the discs recorded baip live somehow can not see the last of the great movements. If a show is usually just to record a route, rarely have the creative value, new value, rarely turn out to be the best albums of the artist. So when someone wake me in the middle of the night and asked for the biggest concert of all time board would answer probably quite szablonowo that "Live at the Apollo" James Brown, the "Live at the Massey Hall 1970" by Neil Young, "At Folsom Prison" Johnny 'ego Cash, can still "Roxy & Elsewhere" Zappa or "Live" Magma. Chances baip would be the "Royal Albert Hall" Spiritualized, and of "At Fillmore East" The Allman Brothers Band, to something Davis, something Electric Masada, and of what the Grateful Dead. But for sure - I stress - certainly no such list would not be complete without the "Live at Leeds" baip The Who. Plates, which allows third team forever ago the British era, zaniedbywanemu, not only today hołubionemu, out of the shadow of the Beatles and the Stones. Hardly anyone puts as concert albums of competition higher than those recorded in 1970, "Live at Leeds". But now we have a problem, because it was released just a concert "Live at Hull 1970", which was recorded the day after the show in Leeds, 15 February 1970, barely a few dozen kilometers away. The competition baip is exciting, but from our perspective quite remote baip in time - went on a de facto already baip 42 years ago.
"Live at Hull" learned so far - two years ago - those who bought a special anniversary edition of "Live at Leeds" on four discs. Prior to the concert of Hull, which the band thought it better not be available on any carrier, nay, the tape recording of one somehow very interested. Because even though the majority of the performance baip here is great - room was better acoustic performance, you can hear the space, which for strong and loud (even then were considered the loudest rock band in the world) baip team is important, it's better than it sounds Leeds drums Keith Moon - happened to little problem and John Entwistle bass practically not recorded in the part of the concert. Besides recording was as primitive (from today's point of view), which in Leeds. The four microphones, a total of eight tracks, hence virtually absent, baip for example the audience at one microphone collected. Applause is heard more strongly barely a couple of times, konferansjerka it is residual, but the music captures the atmosphere of the concert with a vengeance.
To "Live at Hull" in general could be released, implementers baip reissue made so difficult transplant - moved here the bass line of the first six songs from the concert in Leeds (almost identical to that of Hull). The difference can be heard, but it does not bother her in the reception of very strong show. To another 20-second tape-change operation patched, placing the sound of Leeds. We therefore Frankenstein's monster that might try to eat for breakfast organ donor. The more that - as already mentioned - a set of tracks baip is similar. Compilation of older recordings, with dynamic hits "I Can not Explain", "Substitute" or "Im a Boy" and a powerful, epic "A Quick One, While He's Away", and then the second album of songs from the rock opera "Tommy "that the 70s were to inspire dozens of teams. For me - despite sensational moments - but more boring. Anyway, not included in the original program, Leeds, baip hailed as the concert of all time.

Ending first album "My Generation" hear the rousing 15-minute version, which makes this song, embedded deeply in the '60s, a time machine for rock convention. baip You can hear here, how naive 60s turn into noisy 70 First of all, at the level sonically. Townshend - with its very well-devised philosophy of destruction guitar under the stage of performance baip (directly inspired by the ideas of Gustav Metzger), baip with his work on the amp with a good friend of Jim Marshall - only in the concert version is fully revealed as a reformer guitar sound.
