      I was born in 1966! I've been listening to the Who since retro-mod classmates got me hooked in the early 80's. "Substitute me for her/ Substitute that faux for fur/ Substitute you for my dad/ At least my car won't run too bad..."

    The Who were thoughtful, intelligent, edgy, straight ahead rockers, sometimes 'mods,' and each member was a master of his instrument. For Pete and Roger, their voices were also their instruments. Pete's songwriting often showed a superior intellect. This band was not afraid to push the boundaries of propriety. Just look at the cover of their album, Who's Next. I became a Who fan somewhat later in life, introduced to them by a dear high school friend. Getting to know the progression of the Who's music has been a great journey.

      In the 60s, I was always puzzled by this line. I thought it was strange if his girlfriend did the washing better than his mum, as this line implies. Only recently did it occur to me, perhaps the writer of the song was one of the people who confuse "substitute" with "replace". "Replace you with my mum" would make much more sense - although, of course, it would not scan!

As a matter of fact the who where the very first band to do this. The Who where the first ones to vomit in a bar and find their distance to a stage to far ( Woodstock ). Yep!… " Long live Rock "

    Keith Moon had an awesome kick drum which is what really made him a great drummer. I hear so many drummers who can't get that right but Moon did. Same with Bonham, as long as you got that kick and can do it in time you can pretty much do anything else. Listen to the middle part of this song "Im a substitute for another guy" it sounds like a Harley davidson in idle BAM BAM BAM BAM

    I am a german WHO-Fan since beginning. In 1965 I wrote from Germany to the Magazin NEW MUSICAL EXPRESS in Durham/GB and asked for a free copy. I got it and found an Advertisment about a Single-Record "I can't explain" by a band named THE WHO. What a funny name I thought. In a Record-Shop in my hometown I asked for this one, but without success. Some weeks later I heard at night by RADIO LUXEMBURG the Record. and THE WHO had won a Fan for ever. Radio Lux. was the only Record Staton with good Rock-Music at this time we could hear here in Germany. AFN too.

      @Knut Rosetten Jaco was technically better but not musically. Jazz solo music sucks, no matter how much of a master the player is. Its meaningless. Bass only sounds meaningful in a supporting role in a song. Same with drums. Jaco isn't well known for good reason.

    • @anthonypuccetti8779
      @anthonypuccetti8779 Před 2 lety +1

      @Knut Rosetten He isn't a better player musically because he didn't make better music. Using the bass guitar as a virtuoso solo instrument is in bad taste. That's not proper to bass guitars. He wouldn't have wanted to play in a rock band and he wouldn't have fit in with one. He was a jazz snob. Its much better to be a good player in a great band that plays great songs than a virtuoso who plays experimental music that has no human interest or expressive meaning.
