22. Farewell Jam ("Naked Eye" theme)

Notes: The Woodstock performance is one of the most famous ever given by the Who. It sparked off their superstar status by providing the real commercial breakthrough in America as it coincided with the tour that debuted Tommy. Members of the Who have since referred to this concert as the worst in their career, because of the miserable conditions they suffered (taking the stage several hours behind schedule, being "dosed" with acid without their knowledge, and playing to a crowd of American hippies with whom they did not completely sympathize). Also, there were interruptions by cameramen who were filming the festival for a motion picture release, and by political rabble-rouser, Abbie Hoffman. Hoffman took the stage after "Pinball Wizard" and began a rant in support of fellow activist, John Sinclair who had been jailed on a dope charge. Townshend unmercifully whacked Hoffman with his guitar and kicked him off the stage, with a venomous warning to other potential interlopers. All of this, thankfully, is preserved for Who-fans in bootleg form!

Despite the group's disdain for the festival, their playing is absolutely excellent. As usual, when the odds were against them, the Who rose to the challenge and gave a staggering performance. Everything from the vocal harmonies in "Do You Think It's Alright?" to Pete's improvised guitar riffs during the farewell jam is inspired. The contrast between the "peace and love vibes of the Woostock event and the awesome, aggressive attack (both musical and physical) presented by the Who creates an unparalleled rock and roll moment. Highly recommended.
