The Who

Let’s take a moment to chat about The Who's career around the time of that memorable live recording of “The Kids Are Alright.” Leading up to the February 12, 2020 performance at Pryzm in Kingston, The Who were riding a fascinating wave in their journey. They had just released their twelfth studio album, *Who*, in December 2019. This album marked the band's first new material in over a decade and showcased their evolving sound while still honoring their iconic rock roots. What's particularly striking about the Kingston performance is how it reflects the band's enduring spirit and ability to connect with their audience, even in an acoustic format. The choice of "The Kids Are Alright," an anthem of youth and rebellion, resonates deeply, reminding fans of the band's legacy and impact on rock music. Given that this performance was part of their UK tour promoting *Who*, it truly felt like a gathering of generations—both old fans and new—to celebrate The Who’s rich history. Isn't it remarkable how some songs can evoke the same passion even decades later?
