The Kids Are Alright

Debbie had to go out shopping with her daughter this morning, so I was alone in the house with some paperwork to do.  It was awfully quiet, and as we bought a new DVD player yesterday and I can now play my Region 1 DVD’s from the USA, I thought it would be good to have some music to listen to.

I went to look at the collection of DVD’s, and my eyes immediately fell on my copy of The Kids Are Alright, a rockumentary on the legendary band The Who.

For any of you who love The Who, especially their older classic songs, this 2-DVD boxed set has some rare footage of interviews and performances, with plenty of guitar and drum smashing at the end, and it’s a great addition to any fan’s DVD collection. It is also the definitive collection of The Who with their original drummer Keith Moon, the likes of whom the world will probably never see again.

I thought about writing this while watching Baba O’Riley, the same version as the clip above, and arguably one of the most famous songs by The Who, especially having been used as the theme music for CSI New York.

Well I have my copy of this Boxed set and I am loving it. How about you?
