The Who

Back in September 1966, when The Who took the stage at the Pier Pavilion in Felixstowe, they were riding high on the success of their second studio album, "A Quick One," released just a year earlier. This album showcased their increasing ambition and creativity, featuring standout tracks like "Happy Jack" and "I’m a Boy." It was a critical moment for the band, as they were starting to blend their raw rock sound with more sophisticated songwriting, much to the delight of their burgeoning fanbase. During this live recording, they performed a mix of their hits, including "Substitute" and "My Generation," which encapsulated the youthful energy and rebellion that defined the era. Fun fact? This was a time when they were still solidifying their reputation as a live powerhouse, known for their high-octane shows and wild stage antics. It’s hard to believe that just a few years later, they would evolve into rock legends, but in this moment, they were just beginning their meteoric rise. Can you feel the electricity of that night?
