There are only a handful of genuinely seminal albums, but The Who's 'Live at Leeds' is undoubtedly one. Recorded in the comparatively intimate environs of the University Refectory, Leeds, in February 1970, the two-hour-plus show was heavily truncated and clocked in at a mere 38 minutes upon its release as an album later the same year. Despite this, the album's six tracks showcased the thermonuclear dynamics that established The Who as the best live rock band in the world. Throughout the proceedings, the Who's blitzkrieg barrage is propelled by the octopus-limbed Keith Moon-the-loon and John Entwistle's elasticated, dc10-booming bass, topped with Pete Townsend's tumultuous windmilled power chords and Roger Daltrey's howl.
