"And what you made that week was £370." "And what you'd spent was £1,946.17.6... including £785 on the replacement... of guitars, drum kits and microphones." "Who covered that gap in money, that £400 gap... which left £1,300 to find every week?" "It's hard to say." "I used to rush into Marshalls Music Shop... and steal guitars off the wall." "I'd say, "Just taking a guitar, pay you Tuesday," and rush out." "Kit Lambert, our manager then, would say..." ""A photographer from the Daily Mail is in the audience." "Smash your guitar."" "I'd smash the guitar all over the stage." "He'd come back, "Pete, Pete!" "Sorry." "He missed it." "Can you smash another one?" "I'll give you the money."" "And as soon as I started smashing something up..." "Keith, who's a great sort of joiner-inner... used to smash up his drum kit." "Well, I suppose all his friends have been on here... 'cause, you know, I'm only one of several." "I've told you about all the mad things he's done in life... such as, you know, breaking up rooms... driving his car into swimming pools, driving his car into foyers." "Well, I'm not gonna tell you about any of that." "You know, I'm just here to tell you... about the Keith I know and love, you know?" "Keith, what's your opinion of your public image?" "I think it sort of varies with every record I put out." "I think sometimes..." "Could you get on with it?" "Keep..." "Will you keep it together?" "No, I think I'm very reliant on my management... and my public relations people." "This country's in a weird, feeble, grotesque state... and it's about time it got out of it." "And the only... the reason it could get out of it is rock music." "And I think that Townshend, The Who, Roger Daltrey, Entwistle, Moon... could rise this country out of its decadent, ambient state... more than Wilson and those crappy people could ever hope to achieve!"

"What's your opinion of him?" "I think he does a damn good job out there." "Personally, I mean, I wouldn't go out there up front... with nothing to protect me but a small microphone." "But he manages to revolve it so fast that when people do throw things... he gets sort of desiccated egg and sliced tomato." "I turn my cymbals up this way... so that at the end of the night I have a salad mixed." "I just sprinkle some salt and some Italian seasoning on it... and that sort of really ends up my evening."

""See me, feel me, touch me, heal me..."" "which reflect, in a certain sense... the phenomenon of youth subculture." "There is narcissism." "There is a kind of new sensibility."

" Good." "Thank you." "The end of the '60s, that seemed to sum up an awful lot about rock." "It was the time when..." "I mean, you were the great star of Woodstock." "Woodstock itself was one of the biggest pop events in world terms... because of the film that masses and millions of people have seen." "And It was a marvelous thing in its way." "But just as a matter of interest, what do you think it changed?" "What was different after it?" "What did that generation, all those people..." "I mean, given the same time by the same thing and yourself and such... what did it change?" " I'm just interested to know." " Well, it changed me." "I hated it." "Ladies and gentlemen..." "The Who." "You have to resign yourself to the fact that a large part of the audience... is sort of thick, you know, and don't appreciate quality... however much you try and put it over." "The fact is that our group hasn't..." "hasn't got any quality." "It's just musical sensationalism." "You do something big on the stage... and a thousand geezers sort of go, "Ah!"" "It's just basic Shepherds Bush enjoyment." " I can go anyway" " Way I choose" " I can live anyhow" " Win or lose" " I can go anywhere" " For something new" "Anyway, anyhow anywhere I choose" " I can do anything" " Right or wrong" " I can talk anyhow" " And get along" " Don't care anyway" " I never lose" "Anyway, anyhow anywhere I choose" "Nothing gets in my way Not even locked doors" "Don't follow the lines that been laid before" "I get along the way I dare" "Anyway, anyhow, anywhere" "Our sound appeals to mods in that it caters for aggression." "For example, when for a brief period I stopped smashing guitars... kids started shouting out, "Smash your guitar, Pete!" "Smash your guitar!"" "And getting quite annoyed that I wasn't." "'Cause to a large percentage of geezers that come to see the group... they paid their money to see me hit me amplifier with the guitar... and see a guitar break, you know." "A lot of girls come to see the group because of various things... which people in the group wear... such as John's jacket and medals... and my jacket made out offlags... and Keith, who wears sort of fab gear... pop art T-shirts made out of targets and hearts and things like this." "Because the group is a fairly simple form of pop art... we get a lot of audience this way." "Off stage, the group get on terribly badly." "There's a lot of despite and things which flash around." "The singer's a Shepherds Bush geezer who wants everything to be a big laugh." "And when it isn't, you know, he thinks something's going wrong... terribly wrong." "The drummer is a sort of completely different person... to anyone else I've ever met." "The bass player just doesn't seem to be interested in anything, you know... which makes it all very difficult." "You've been together ten years." "You must have been subject... to a great deal of strain and inner tension." " And now, can I ask..." " We do try and ignore each other." "We've always been very close, you and I, haven't we?" " No." " One of the things is that..." " In the history of the group is that..." " I loathe Pete Townshend." " Keith and I have always got on well." " This group has no history." " And I've hated it ever since I began." " One of the things too is..." " since I do the bulk of the writing..." " He does no writing." "I do most of it." " I do most of the lyric work."

"A voice said I'm your fairy manager" "You shall play at Carnegie Hall" "I'm gonna give up my day job" "To become a heartthrob" "I may go far" "If I smash my guitar" "What about musical quality, though?" "You said that... you don't think your group has got any." " Why don't you try and give it some?" " But if you don't..." "If you..." "If you steer clear of quality... you're all right, you know." "No, really." "This is the truth, you know." "But wouldn't you say the Beatles and people like that... have a certain musical quality?" "Ooh, you know... that's a tough question, all right." "Actually, this afternoon, we..." "John and I... were listening to a stereo L.P. Of the Beatles... in which the voices come out of one side... and the backing track comes out of the other." "And when you actually hear the backing tracks of the Beatles... without their voices, they're flippin' lousy."

"We traveled from..." "We went from coast to coast... and from Miami we'd go up to Canada." "It was pretty awful." "We used New York as a springboard." "We used to play for Murray the K." "We used to do five shows a day then." "And we had three minutes to do our show." "So we used to do one and a half minutes of"I Can't Explain"... and one and a half minutes of"My Generation"... smash your guitar and run off, you know." "Five times a day, seven days a week." "In those days, your performances used to end up... with you smashing all your equipment." "There were stories about you smashing hotel rooms on every tour." "All lies." "Not a word of truth." "Well, according to people, at the time it certainly was true." "I mean, why was there all that violence surrounding you?" "Well, this was..." "this was only last week, wasn't it?" "What made us first want to go to America and conquer it... was being English." "Not because we cared a monkey's about the American dream... or about the American drug situation or about the dollars or anything." "It's because we were English kids, right... and we wanted to go to America and be English." "Pop music is-is crucial to today's art... and it's crucial that it should remain art... and it is crucial that it should..." "that it should progress as art." "Happy Jack wasn't old but he was a man" "He lived in the sand at the Isle of Man" "The kids would all sing He would take the wrong key" "So they rode on his head in their furry donkey" "The kids couldn't hurt Jack They tried and tried and tried" "They dropped things on his back And lied and lied and lied and lied" "And lied" "But they couldn't stop Jack or the waters lapping" "And they couldn't prevent Jack from feeling happy" "But they couldn't stop Jack or the waters lapping" "And they couldn't prevent Jack from feeling happy" "The kids couldn't hurt Jack They tried and tried and tried" "They dropped things on his back And lied and lied and lied and lied" "And lied" "They couldn't stop Jack or the waters lapping" "And they couldn't prevent Jack from feeling happy" "Girls came to see you, mainly, to look at the clothes you wear." "Don't you think that most of them come for a certain sexual thrill..." " they get out of your performance?" " Look, you know, our group's... probably one of the most unglamorous on the stage today, you know." "I mean..." "No, really." "I mean... this is one of our..." "was one of our big problems, you know... and probably still is, you know, is that the group didn't have enough glamor." "It was all clothes and-and smashing things up." "And it was all mechanical things." "It was bricks and stones and things... and not enough sort of normal group things, you know." "We made our... second... second album, which he produced." "And it was during that album which, as I say, Kit Lambert produced... that we really realized what making albums was all about." "You know, we had great fun." "It was very creative." "And Kit was learning about record production... and doing crazy things, like... recording the group from a microphone down the corridor... and all these things which are very commonplace nowadays, but..." "Using incredible amounts of compression... and squeezing the sound up." "Squeezing symbol sounds up to make them sound like steam engines... and various, sort of... twiddling knobs as the recording was going." "The engineers throwing their hands in the air..." ""Them's platinum-coated knobs, mate." "You can't do that."" "And all this was going on in the studio, but unfortunately... we had ten minutes on the album to fill when we'd finished." "And so Kit turned 'round to me and said..." ""I think you should write something linear... something with continuity... perhaps a ten-minute song."" "So I said, "You can't write a ten-minute song."" "I mean, rock songs are two minute, fifty by tradition." "It's one of the traditions." "They only allowed you one modulation... four chords or five, you know." "Five chords, you might be up before the committee." "Ten minutes?" "It's ridiculous." "So he said, "Well, listen, if you can't write a ten-minute song... write a ten-minute story... made up of two minute, fifty songs."" "Which I did." "And that was the mini-opera, it was called."

"That is ridiculous to say that." "I mean..." " That's it." " Okay, Keith." "Brand him right on the heel!" "Yea!" "I've heard a lot about you and the rest of the group taking drugs, Pete." "Does this mean you're usually blocked up when you're actually on stage?" "No, but it means we're blocked up all the time, you know." "Well, Keith, we've heard you drink a lot, but that's beside the point." "If you could tell us, you know... how did you... how did you happen to join The Who... and if in fact that's what they were called when you joined?" "Well, I've just been sitting in for the past 15 years, you know." "They never actually told me that I was part of the band." "I knew it by instinct." "Keith Moon rolled up one day all ginger all over... ginger shoes, ginger corduroy trousers, ginger jacket... and his hair dyed ginger, holding a glass of brown ale." "So this complete ginger sort of vision... came up and said, "I can play better than him."" "And this horrible impudent with his hair down like this... and got up on the drummer's drum kit... and practically smashed it to pieces." "And we thought this is the man for us." "Hi, I'm Ralph Baines speaking to you for the Hewitt House Hotels... the rock star's home away from home." "Don't be alarmed." "I think I know what's going on." "Let's get some information across before the fun and games break loose again." "What were you before you kicked off as a group?" " He was almost as interesting as..." " What do you know about it?" " What?" " Inland Revenue Income Tax." " You said you were in land rover." " Yes, sometimes." " In the back." " Inland Revenue Income Tax." "So, what did you do?" "Me?" "All sorts of things." " Like what?" " Be more specific." "He wants specifics." "I want one thing that you did before you joined as a group." "Were you digging a garden or what?" " He was born in a boat." " A sheet metal worker." " A sheet metal worker?" " Yeah." "He was a rust repairer." "I was a rust repairer and a full-time survivor." "I survived all the major earthquakes... and the Titanic and several air crashes." "I think you'll have to give me a few lessons in survival." "'Cause if I'm gonna survive this interview, I'll need a few lessons." "The makeup department is looking very worried over there." " I need more brandy." "I mean, lemonade." " That's right." "And you were doing what?" "He didn't work." "Arty-farty, he was." "You leave me out of this." "We're talking about me." "God!" "Oh, no!" "No!" "Oh, no, Keith." "It's the breakup of the group." "That's what he was doing, developing his muscles." "Keith, leave me alone!" " Well, they have to ask you this." " I know." "You know." " What do you think about Pete?" " I love the man." "He is one of my dearest friends... but I couldn't say..." "Ringo, if Pete said, "What do you think about Ringo?"" "You know, we have our moments and when we get together... there are certain times that just something happens... and I really don't know what it is, but there's that magic there." " It's probably we're drunk." " It could be that." "Not drunk, teenyboppers." "I mean..." "No, absolutely not, you Donny and Marie fans." " Keith and me had a lot of medicine." " Absolutely." " You know, just a lot of medicine." " We're getting on." "We're getting on now." "We need our medicine, so..." "You know, just see the age of this suit." "When I'm on the stage..." "Let me try and explain." "When I'm on the stage, I'm not in control of myself at all." "I don't even know who I am, you know." "I'm not this rational person that can sit here now and talk to you." "If you walked on the stage with a microphone in the middle of a concert..." "I'd probably come close to killing you." "I have come close to killing people who walked on stage." "Abbie Hoffman walked on the stage at Woodstock." "And I nearly killed him with me guitar." "A cameraman walked on the stage..." "A policeman came on... when the bloody building at the Fillmore in New York was burning down." "And I kicked him in the balls and sent him off." "You know, because I..." "You know, I..." "I'm just not there really." "It's not like being possessed." "It's just I do my job." "And I know that I have to get into a certain state of mind to do it." "We'd realized the end of our tether." "We'd reached it." "We'd come upon the point when the... the nosebleeds and all that, and you know, they're no good." "You can't go on doing that." "It's no good." "It's beyond the beyond." "Ba, Ba, Barbara Ann" ""Barbara Ann"?" "Ba, Ba, Ba, Ba, Barbara Ann" " We'll have to go and have a look." " Go and get a doctor, please." "Yeah, get a doctor." "Now then." "Now then."

"Went to a dance lookin'for romance" "We did that bit there." "Does it come in twice, that bit?" "Oh, Keith." "Look at old Moon." "I mean, one main ambition now is to get back on the road... with the horrible Who, the worst rock and roll group in the world." " "The worst?"" " Yes." "You couldn't pick more..." "four more horrible geezers... that make the worst noise that you've ever heard in your life."

"You know what I mean?" "They sort of just won't listen to what you do." "And it doesn't matter how good or bad it is." "In fact, the bigger it is, normally... the more they'll close their ears to it." "So the louder you gotta..." "you gotta work, you know." "Volume is a fantastic thing." "Power and volume." "Power and volume." "When I went to get me ears tested, the bloke was really encouraging... apart from the fact that he said I had..." " Terrible ears." " I had terrible ears." "He said..." "Bill said, "Well, what advice would you give him?" "Would you tell him to stop playing entirely... and leave the group?"" " "Throw his career out the window?" " Throw his career out the window?" " Would he?"" " Become a pauper, starve?" "Would you tell him that?"" ""Well, now, actually, no, but I would advise him to learn to lip-read."" "That's what he said." "It's true." "That's what he said." "Get out." "Have all of you made enough money to stop work this afternoon... tonight?" "I could buy and sell you just like that." " Yes, I have." " You have?" "Why don't you stop then?" "Because he has to support me and the rest of the boys." "You mean, you've made more money than they have?" " Well, I write all the songs." " He writes the songs." "No, I write the songs." "If you write songs, you get a bit on the side, you know." "You see, the thing is... as a songwriter, I do have something... you know... you know, an edge." " Going for you." " Something going for me, yes." "We go for him." "Scab." "Carry on, Russell." " I'm transfixed by it all." " Yeah?" "I don't know why I'm here." "In "My Generation," you wrote, I hope I die before I get old."" " Do you in fact mean it?" " Yes." "There's a guitar up here if any big mouth little git... wants to come up and fucking take it off me." "Rock and roll's got no future." "It don't matter." "We became rich a lot later than I expected." "Now I'm too old to enjoy my money." "Excuse me." "We just shot a lot of film with the interview." "And talking about all that..." " I was wondering..." " Heard the worst." "Now could you really tell us the truth and stop lying?" "Oh, no." "It..." "I mean, the truth as you wanna hear it?" "I can't do that." "You couldn't afford me." "But you're a very different person now... to the desperate young man of the early '60s, aren't you?" "Yeah, I'm a desperate old fart now, not boring though."
