By the way, this is from Isle of Wight festival in 1970. Another great version (the one I'm listening to) is on the deluxe edition of their album: "Who's Next". The second disc is a full concert from April of 1971. Excellent CD. The studio album is brilliant as well. I highly recommend it.

Song of the Week: The Who- Water (Live)
So this is what I'm listening to right now, and I think it's an excellent example of live rock. As I am a nostalgic listener, it is The Who. They are a prime example of a Rock n' Roll ensemble. Roger Daltrey's throaty, visceral vocals; Keith Moon's jet engine-like, roaring drumming; John Entwhistle's thundering and innovative bass playing and Pete Townshend's brilliant compososition, and his rhythmic intense guitar playing. They were one of the greatest live bands, and this a great example of their talent.
