The Who

By September 21, 2017, when The Who took the stage at Allianz Parque in São Paulo, they were riding a wave of nostalgia and renewed energy, performing a set that blended classic hits with some of their later works. The most recent studio album before this live recording was *WHO*, released in December 2019. Yet, their catalog stretches far beyond, with hits like "Baba O'Riley" and "My Generation" representing the band's iconic sound that defined rock in the '60s and '70s. Intriguingly, The Who has a reputation for their explosive live performances, which often display that raw energy of their youth—something this concert certainly encapsulated. It’s fascinating to see how, decades later, the band can still ignite the crowd with songs that resonate deeply across generations. They may be legacy acts now, but their performances are a celebration of a rebellious spirit that refuses to fade. Just imagine the electricity in the air as they kicked off the night with “I Can’t Explain”!
