Take physic, pomp

The Friday OT: The Who/Elton John; Pinball Wizard.

Magnificent, showstopper of a scene from Tommy:

Things to look out for:
  • Elton John’s acting, which was really good in fact. Yup folks, there was a time when Elton John did have a contribution to make.
  • The oldschool cheesy audience directions, straight out of the 70s. 
  • The boots. Of course, the boots
  • Entwistle playing one bass but then putting a totally different one thru the speaker later.
  • Keith Moon. Being Keith Moon.

But it’s the song, the song, the song that’s 100% kick-ass, nearly 40 years later. Hope you enjoy.
