Scott:

I think it was the amps etc, possibly the drums, but not the guitars.

>Now, I must profess, I haven't heard a whole lot of WHO from 1967

You've peaked my interest. I have heard a little Who from 1967, most of
which has the worst sound quality imaginable. If you have some that sounds
good, can we trade? Please please please?

>what I have heard is kinda haphazzard & sloppy.

I have some 1965/66 and of course there's Fillmore East from 1968, and
they're not haphazard on any of it. I'll agree they seem a bit frazzled on
MP, but I think that has something to do with the equipment. It's always
irked me that they should have sounded as powerful as Hendrix, and were in
fact using Marshalls first, but for the equipment they barely missed the bus
again.

>but powerful six-word statement is edited out of THE KIDS ARE ALRIGHT
movie.

And the Monterey Pop movie too. I think TKAA used the same video.
