bitflipper Posted January 13 Posted January 13 I am always encouraged to see young people adopting classic rock, and these folks have done an exemplary job of interpreting one of the greatest classics of all time. Note the refreshing absence of over-the-top post-production, auto-tune and reverb washes. Just a legit live performance from some extraordinarily talented and dedicated musicians. The principle lead vocalist even manages to project in the original keys, showing great technique. And of course there's the YouTube-famous drummer grinning all the way through, just like Keith used to do. I literally shed a tear during I Can See for Miles (22:20), it was that good. 2 3
user905133 Posted January 13 Posted January 13 Nice find. I can't remember the last time I watched a Sina video. She's been at home at the drums for a while. Definitely the group's own version of Tommy, but at the same time their tribute to The Who comes across very well and is a pleasure to listen to. Easy to remember the past and to listen to this fresh rendition.
craigb Posted January 13 Posted January 13 Nice! I'm reminded though of how the Who didn't make a profit until this came out! Of course, Townshend smashing gear all the time probably didn't help! 😆
57Gregy Posted January 14 Posted January 14 Cool. I love The Who. The marionette looked a lot like Roger Daltrey. By design, I imagine.
mettelus Posted January 14 Posted January 14 That was very nicely done. The part that stuck out to me was the camera equipment when they showed it. A couple of those cameras are not cheap by any means, so they rival the cost of the gear that was used (not sure if they own them, or rented them for the video production). The lack of post-production is also very heartening this day in age!

Terry Kelley Posted January 17 Posted January 17 (edited) I love the Who too but I consider Tommy to be their weak point and the god save me from the movie. And yes, the Sgt Pepper’s movie was competitively worse. But this bunch did an outstanding job. Edited January 17 by Terry Kelley
