Now, my favourite subject: The WHO - the reason David Moore didn't see the nearly nudie woman or the Keith Moon vocal extravaganza is because it was a different concert. The one on the video is from 1974, which accounts for
the
vastly superior fashion sense of the crowd. It was on BBC 2. But the 1976 one is/was in the Guiness Book of Records as the loudest concert of all time! Needless to say, I heartily approve. Apparently it was one of the best concerts they ever did, so lucky old David.
Indeed you speak the truth, and would explain how he did not hear the Keith Moon rendition of the shouty bit in Bell Boy. It's indeed ace - he has trouble keeping hold of the microphone whilst banging all the drums at once, it's well cool. I'd say that whole period was the WHO in their prime, and indeed one of the best all round records by the WHO would have to be the mid-seventies compilation record "Odds and Sods" which was my bosses first ever record (he went to see the WHO in 1976 too, but in Parkhead). I know this seems weird with it being a record made up of outtakes and stuff, but it is completely brilliant. On the same tip, I bought "Get yer Ya-Ya's out" by the Rolling Stones the other day, from Fopp for a fiver, and it's class too, from their golden concert period, the Stones rock the house, my favourite bit being where Mick tells the crowd that he's burst a button in his trousers, and he says he'd better sort it, cause the crowd wouldn't want to see his trousers fall down. Actually, that's not the best bit, but it is the funniest. The amazing renditions of Midnight Rambler and Sympathy for the Devil do the trick for me. I also got Hot Chocolate's greatest hits which is funky as fuck. Right, better get back to work then... sound it's the Brothers Johnson on the radio. Cheers, Keith. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- This message was brought to you by the Sinister mailing list.
