THE WHO
PETE TOWNSHEND, ROGER DALTREY, KEITH MOON, JOHN ENTWISTLE
An explosive combo that pioneered progressive and arena rock, each new sound
increasing their influence and legacy.They clashed frequently, but these frictions resulted
in a decade's worth of remarkable music. Though it took a while to find their audience,
by the late '60s the Who rivaled the Rolling Stones as a live act and in album sales

Rushed out in 1970 as a way to bide time as the Who toiled away on their follow-up to Tommy,
Live at Leeds wasn't intended to be the definitive Who live album, and many collectors
maintain that the band had better shows available on bootlegs.
But those shows weren't easily available whereas Live at Leeds was, and even if this show
may not have been the absolute best, it's so damn close to it that it would be impossible
for anybody but aficionados to argue. Here, the Who sound vicious -- as heavy
as Led Zeppelin but twice as volatile -- as they careen through early classics with the confidence
of a band that finally achieved acclaim but had yet to become preoccupied with making art.
In that regard, this recording -- in its many different forms -- may have been perfectly timed
in terms of capturing the band at a pivotal moment in its history…(AllMusic)
