The Who Live in Rio: Performance of Tommy
In September 2017, when The Who took the stage at Rock in Rio, they were riding the wave of their long and illustrious career, having released their most recent studio album, *WHO*, in 2019. By that time, they had already cemented their legacy as one of rock's most electrifying live acts, and this performance in Brazil showcased their commitment to thrilling audiences, even decades after their formation. Notably, they performed *Tommy*, their groundbreaking rock opera that first hit shelves in 1969, reflecting their enduring connection to the material that made them legends. This choice wasn't just nostalgic; it also highlighted how their music continues to resonate, drawing in both longtime fans and new listeners alike. Plus, it’s a testament to their remarkable ability to evolve while keeping their signature sound intact—an impressive feat in the ever-changing landscape of rock music!
