Talking About The Who

Max Ker-Seymer talks about:

Accidentally stumbling across The Detours supporting The Rolling Stones in Putney in 1963
Being a first-generation Mod – and why present-day perception of the movement may be wrong
Seeing The Who at the Marquee and the Goldhawk Club in 1965
Why their mid-sixties harmonies and choice of cover songs set them apart from their peers
Moving from London to America in 1975, and the subsequent struggle to follow the band live
How Pete Townshend has improved as a guitarist over the years
Appearing as an extra in Michelangelo Antonioni’s film Blow Up – and watching Jeff Beck struggle to replicate Townshend’s guitar destruction
And The Who exceeding his expectations on their North American farewell tour
