The Who

When The Who delivered their electrifying performance of "Fortune Teller" on February 14, 1970, during a live recording at the University of Leeds, they were riding the wave of rock superstardom. Just before this unforgettable concert, the band had released the landmark album *Tommy* in May 1969—an ambitious rock opera that solidified their reputation and showcased their innovative edge. With hits like "Pinball Wizard," *Tommy* pushed boundaries and changed perceptions of what rock music could achieve. What’s fascinating is that this live performance is part of the legendary *Live at Leeds* album, which was recorded the same year and is often hailed as one of the greatest live albums in rock history. The raw energy captured at the Refectory contributed to the fierce and dynamic reputation The Who were building; they were not just a band, but a force reshaping music's future. How incredible is it that in this one concert, you could feel the heartbeat of a transformative era?
