This concert is all over Youtube; I'm sure there are also bootleg DVD's of this show out there, but this appears to be offical product I would like to have a bit more confirmation about this title, but here's what I found:

Yes-this is legit. It won't be much more than what has been out there for years, but I never got the boot, so I am in for sure. There are so many more Pro-shot Who shows which need a release. Eagle has been doing a bangup job with Ozzy (I have to get that this week! ) and the Stones lately and now The Who. may it continue.

This is one of those damned-if-they-do, damned-if-they-don't releases: Up till now, the Who seem to have been reluctant to release live stuff from less-than-stellar source tapes. The problem is that apparently very few of their concerts were professionally recorded over the years--I'm not even sure if the audio of this show is even going to be stereo.
But watching these four guys play is amazing. I'm not a big fan of sitting on the couch and watching concerts on DVD, but I can click on a Youtube clip of the Who and the next thing I know, ten minutes have gone by. At least once a year I find myself watching the entire Youtube video (complete with timecode) of the late, great Scott Halpin sitting in on drums back in 1973. Fascinating stuff, even if the audio/video quality is, um, terrible.

How do we know that there isnt a decent sbd of this show?
I wouldn't be surprised if an audio version of this shows up on iTunes at least. I've downloaded audio of DVD shows like U2's Paris show from the Joshua Tree box from iTunes.

That's a question I still have: Is the audio still essentially the audio from the video feed? I hear it's been improved quite a bit, but is it in mono, stereo, or what?
