In the early morning of August 30th 1970, one of the greatest British Rock bands gave one of the most memorable concerts of their career to an audience of 600,000 people. The set combines some of their greatest hits up to that point. It is a blistering run through the epochal Tommy and some new songs earmarked for their next album. Pete Townshend personally supervised the remixing of the sound. As Townshend has since opined, The Who were at the very top of their game as a live act at this stage of their career and it is immediately perceptible when listening to this performance. This album is the undiluted, absolute power of The Who at their live peak.
