Summary: At last, The Who with Keith Moon!
Comment: This is a long-awaited item for me. I'm a very big fan of The Who, and Keith Moon is one of my favorite drummers. There is not too many live performances with Keith, and to my knowledge, nothing official was ever realeased... until know.
The first DVD includes the 1977 concert. This footage has incredible sound and image quality. The performance is not perfect, but it is not as bad as apparently Pete Townsend thought it was. It has more than enough energy to make up for a few wrong notes and minor mistakes.
The second DVD has a 1969 concert. Sound and image are not as good, but the performance is really good. It's nice to have to concerts from two different WHO eras. Must have for any Who fan.

Summary: The Kids Are Alright....No Matter What They Say
Comment: Two years off the road, The Who scheduled this one concert to be chronicled for the film, The Kids Are Alright. The band members deemed the footage unusable and they "reshot" the concert in 1978 at the Shepperton Studios, which was the only gig for that year and the last performance by drummer Keith Moon.
At North London's Gaumont State Theatre in Kilburn, the 15-song set again demonstrated the power of the band, even if there was some fine-tuning that (understandably) occurred throughout by each member. At the end of I'm Free - the eighth number - Pete Townshend pointedly told director Jeff Stein that the concert was not worth filming. And there was particular focus on Moon, who did not appear to be in the greatest of health, but performed as well as could be expected after so much time away from the stage.
The event marked the debut of a new song, Who Are You, and the concert - no matter the harsh pronouncements from the foursome - was a kick-off to an incredible period of creativity and popularity, even in the face of professional turmoil that would have derailed many bands.
The bonus concert is from the 1969 Tommy tour - at London's Coliseum - and shot with 16mm film. It is a performance not found preserved in a record company vault, but essentially stumbled upon in the corner of the office of the band's former management company. What a gem of a show, though, and it is "Maximum R&B."

Summary: need more
Comment: no two concerts were ever done the same, and each had their highs and lows. I have always held the isle of wight as the who's top dvd , but am now saying this is the best.Some of the older songs ar better at the collisium, some at killburn.I wish to see more releases in the future.

Summary: The Who in their prime!
Comment: If you are looking for a finely tuned, flawless Vegas act then this DVD is not for you. For the rest of you real rock fans out there, this is the performance you've been waiting for. A rare glimpse of The WHO at the peak of their existence. Definitely the rawest and most powerful Who performance that has been released to date. This is not the most polished set list that you'll see in a Who concert, but hey, when was rock and roll ever about perfection? The remastering of this gem on the other hand is as close as you can get to perfection, and let's not forget about the load of extras included on this disc. If you are a fan of The Who you will love this disc and if you're not a fan, you will be after viewing this classic concert.

Editorial Reviews:

They are one of the greatest rock and roll bands of all time. For over four decades, they have changed modern music as we know it. But some of their most famous performances have never been released... until now. On December 15, 1977, The Who performed before a select invited audience at the Gaumont State Theatre in Kilburn, North London, to record a concert for Jeff Stein's film, The Kids Are Alright, which turned out to be one of the last live performances by drummer Keith Moon. Shot in 35mm, this holy grail for fans has been digitally restored and remastered in high-definitiion for the ultimate The Who experience. This set also includes The Who's powerhouse London Coliseum gig from 1969, a never-before-seen rarity and one of the band's personal favorites. Take an amazing journey with The Who like you've never seen or heard them before, featuring their greatest hits and hours of incredible footage! It's the rock discovery of the year! Two incredible concerts - totaling 138 minutes! Kilburn Songs: "Can't Explain," "Substitute," "Baba O'Reilly (Teenage Wasteland)," "My Wife / Going Mobile," "Behind Blue Eyes," "Dreaming from the Waist," "Pinball Wizard," "I'm Free," "Tommy's Holiday Camp," "Summertime Blues," "Shakin' All Over," "My Generation," "Join Together," "Who Are You?," "Won't Get Fooled Again." London Coliseum Songs: "Heaven and Hell," "Can't Explain," "Fortune Teller," "Tattoo," "Young Man Blues," "A Quick One While He's Away," "Happy Jack," "I'm a Boy," "I'm Free," "Tommy's Holiday Camp," "See Me, Feel Me," "Summertime Blues," "Shakin' All Over," "My Generation" Plus 70 minutes of rare Coliseum bonus tracks and extended versions including the first-ever long performance of “Tommy.” Includes an extensive collectible booklet featuring liner notes by The Who: Maximum R&B author Richard Barnes, The Who art director and designer Richard Evans, former Spin and Vibe editor Alan Light, and Nigel Sinclair.
