The Who

In October 2017, when The Who performed "Pinball Wizard" at Sheffield Arena, they were riding a wave of nostalgia and celebration for their extensive career. Just before this electrifying live recording, they had released their album "Who" in December of 2019, marking their first studio album in over a decade. This project was made even more significant as it featured fresh materials, showcasing the band’s enduring creativity while also honoring their rock legacy. At that time, the band was also on their "Moving On!" tour, collaborating with orchestras across the UK, which added a rich layer to their live performances. Notably, "Pinball Wizard," a classic from their 1969 rock opera "Tommy," held a special place in their setlists, often igniting waves of excitement among fans. This performance, steeped in history, highlighted The Who's ability to blend their iconic past with vibrant present-day energy, reminding everyone why they’re still legends in the rock world.
