The Who The Kids Are Alright: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (Vinyl 2LP)

2018 Remaster Reissued On Vinyl 2LP!

The first-rate biopic The Kids Are Alright – among the apex of rock on celluloid – appeared as an unwitting tribute to Keith Moon when first issued in 1979. Directed with genuine affection by US fan Jeff Stein, this exhilarating, non-chronologically assembled documentary includes live and lip-synched footage and interviews stretching back to 1964, concluding with "Won't Get Fooled Again" from a specially filmed performance at Shepperton Studios in 1978, which turned out to be Moon's last stand.

Highlights include non-split screen footage from Woodstock ("Pinball Wizard," "Sparks" and "See Me, Feel Me"), "A Quick One" from The Rolling Stones Rock And Roll Circus, and spectacular footage of the band smashing their equipment, notably the explosive opening sequence from The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour in 1967. The Kids Are Alright is the definitive rock documentary, essential not only to Who fans but lovers of music in general.

The legendary companion album features one of the most iconic rock images on the front cover – photographer Art Kane's shot of the band draped in the Union Jack flag at the Carl Shurz Monument in Morningside Heights in New York City. It includes the aforementioned performances from Woodstock, classic '60s TV performances of "Magic Bus" and "Anyway, Anyhow, Anywhere," and the definitive "A Quick One," a performance so good that, according to legend, it's the reason why the Stones shelved Rock And Roll Circus for 20 years!
