Roger's screams, John thundering bass, Petes windmilling & Keith's brilliantly fast drum rolls... what more do you need?

The Who during the 69-71 was a period where they could do nothing wrong onstage, performance after performance they kept providing dramatic, crazy, loud and energetic concerts... The Isle of Wight is one of them. I had owned both the VHS & Normal dvd of the Isle of wight performance and always found it lacking something compared to the bootlegs I had before. But after purchusing the 5.1 surround sound I decided to buy this version. Keith's drumming is louder and clearer due to the sound as is John's bass which causes the ground to rumble. Pete is on top form providing excellent solo's on Young Man blues, Heaven & Hell etc. Roger's singing is excellent especially during the 'Tommy' performance.

Crank Up The Volume!
Review date: 2008-01-01 Rating: 10 out of 10
My advice. Do what I did. Have a few drinks. Put on the dvd. Crank up the volume. A little bit more. Have another drink. Repeat. Repeat. Worth every penny. This is the first review I have written. Such is the perfection of this dvd. Turn up the volume until the speakers cry. Then enjoy. Live recordings of The Who don't get better. It might me 38 years old but quality music doesn't age. Must go. Got to follow my own advice!!!!
CLASSIC

Just brilliant!! I was often bugged by the sound and picture of the original release! but this version has alot of improvement!! you have to get it!! 5.1! DTS! play it through that cinema set-up and its pure bliss :) the new mix is great, you hear all the band members clearly, I notice Johns bass alot more now :) theres a very interesting interview with Pete worth listening to :) and 2 bonus live tracks :) Thanks Bob Pridden and Pete Townshend for giving the fans a release of this brilliant concert with a wonderful remastered job :) if you love this concert and own the old dvd version, replace it with this, you wont regret it :)
