3. Summertime Blues E. Cochran/J. Capehart)
4. won't Get Fooled Again

Notes: A short segment of what must surely have been an awesome early '70's show. The source appears to be a soundboard recording, but there is a lot of tape hiss due to the high number of generations. Vocals and guitars are clear and out-front. Phenomenal high energy is displayed--Keith is in top form. Just wish I could find more of this show, or this tour. I generally use this material as filler. There is song separation, as these four numbers are presented out of order.

11. Pinball Wizard
12. See Me, Feel Me

Notes: A classic Quadrophenia show recorded for broadcast by King Biscuit Flower Hour. Despite technical imperfections (Pete comes in early on "The Real Me" for instance), still the finest boot available of a Quad performance by the original Who. This show is supposed to be officially released in the second half of '98, but no date has been set, and there is talk of combining material from this show and 12/6/73 to cover up mistakes and dodgy spots for the general public.

Notes: I have mixed feelings about this show. As is often the case, an absolutely superb performance is marred by the imperfections of the recording. In this case, a truly murky audience recording which leaves a lot to be desired. Certainly not a complete waste, as the power of the music still comes through, and vocals (including stage announcements) are pretty clear. The light Christmas-time spirit seems to have invaded the concert hall, and the band seem to genuinely enjoy this Quad show. Between song banter is at its hilarious best, and the introductions to various Quad songs are rather interesting. A hard boot to get excited about at first, but it eventually absorbs your attention and wins you over.

18. Let's See Action
19. My Generation Blues

Notes: A show professionally filmed and recorded for radio broadcast. The performance suffers from being the first one after a three-month lay-off and for the fact that Pete was excessively drunk during it. Still, an interesting concert with more variety than a Who set had seen in some time, but they seem to be searching for a groove that they just can't get into. Another drawback for this boot is that the songs are out of sequence, cutting out some between song dialogue and hurting the flow.

Notes: A really fun, really different show, with an unusual setlist. The recording isn't outstanding, but an enjoyable concert still can be heard. Some technical short-comings interfere, such as microphone feedback and too much volume on the backing tapes for ome of the songs, but still a good show. Two noteworthy rarities are the impromptu drum solo after "My Generation Blues" and the only known performance of Keith's "Waspman." One of a series of shows at MSG.
