"…JOHN ENTWISTLE, SURELY THE MOST GIFTED BASS PLAYER OF HIS GENERATION…"

PIC(S) INFO: Mega spotlight on THE WHO's John Entwistle (1944-2002), a.k.a., "The Ox," laying down fat bass chords and solid rhythms during the recording of the "Live at Leeds" LP at Leeds University on February 14, 1970. 📸: John Rettie.

"…John Entwistle, surely the most gifted bass player of his generation, held a beat but at the same time played imaginative runs -- or fat chords -- at every notch on his fretboard. With all this going on around him, Pete was allowed the luxury of soloing at will -- knowing that if he missed a note it didn't matter because the sheer din of Moon and The Ox covered everything up -- or doing what he did best, which was to establish a chord riff and ram it home."

-- CHRIS CHARLESWORTH, "Live at Leeds" 1995 CD remaster liner notes

"…NO LIGHT SHOWS, NO LASERS OR SMOKE BOMBS, NO BACKING DANCERS OR VIDEO SCREENS..."

PIC(S) INFO: Spotlight on a handful of color shots of English rock band THE WHO recording their now critically-acclaimed "Live at Leeds" album, performing live at Leeds University, Leeds, UK, on February 14, 1970.

"…No light shows, no lasers or smoke bombs, no backing dancers or video screens…just 4 guys on stage in a college dining hall/refectory playing some of the most exciting, ass-kicking rock of all time."
