BE IT DEAD OR ALIVE
The distillation of everything that was right about The Who is in that performance of A Quick One, from 4:43 to 5:15 (yes, 5:15). I believe the lyrics are as follows:
Dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang
Cello, cello, cello, cello, cello, cello
Cello, cello, cello, cello, cello, cello
Cello, cello, cello, cello, cello, cello
Cello, cello, cello, cello, cello, cello
And on top of that is the most clinking, clanking, clattering collection of caliginous junk you've ever heard.
It is the goddam choir celestial, and the essence of rock and roll in 32 seconds...
