The Who Live in Sacramento 2000 - Performance of 5:15 Part 1
In May 2000, when The Who took the stage in Sacramento, they were riding a wave of resurgence in their career. This live recording captures the band in a pivotal chapter, following the release of their album "The Who's Last," a compilation that featured their legendary hits and some newly recorded tracks. Notably, this period marked the band’s collaboration with guitarist Pete Townshend and vocalist Roger Daltrey, who were reuniting with a fresh energy after a brief hiatus. Interestingly enough, the tour prompted a sense of nostalgia for many fans, as The Who had been known for their explosive live performances since the 1960s. The Sacramento concert showcases not just their timeless sound but also the band's ability to innovate while honoring their storied past. Plus, it’s a testament to their enduring legacy—defying the odds and continuing to electrify audiences around the world, even decades after their meteoric rise.
