WHO'S BETTER, WHO'S BEST - The Video

1. "My Generation" - Live at the Marquee Club (1966?).  B&W.  Scorching.  
    The best clip on the tape.
2. "I Can't Explain" - The "video."  Old B&W footage of The Who & Mods & 
    stuff.  Pete looks to be about twelve.
3. "Substitute" -  The "video."  Lip-synched B&W stuff a la TKAA film.
4. "The Kids Are Alright" - The "video."  B&W footage of The Who lip-synching
    by the Thames.  Eye-grabbing flares on Daltrey.
5. "I'm A Boy" - The Beat Club "video."  B&W lip-synch.
6. "Happy Jack" - The B&W cops & robbers "video" a la TKAA.
7. "Pictures Of Lily" - The B&W lip-synch "video" a la TKAA.  Daring early-New 
    Romantic outfit on Moon.
8. "You Better, You Bet" - B&W video (no quotes!) a la early-80's MTV.  Smart
    pair of Nikes on Daltrey.
9. "I Can See For Miles" - Color Smothers Brothers lip-synch deal.
10. "Magic Bus" - Live abbreviated (no Moon drum explosion - just the woodblocks)
    version from 1972, I think.  Europe?  Off-key backing vocals from OX.  Since 
    this isn't even the whole song, this clip stinks.
11. "Pinball Wizard" - Live at Woodstock 1969 a la TKAA.
12. "I'm Free" - Live from 1969, I believe (London Coliseum?).  Second best clip
    on the tape.
13. "See Me, Feel Me" - Live at Woodstock1969 a la TKAA.
14. "Join Together" - Color "video" of the band lip-synching for some T.V. show
    (little help?).  Ugly-Who period.  Moon is funny - just his facial expressions.
    They all (except Moon) hop off into the "audience" towards the end.
15. "Who Are You" - 1978 studio rehearsal a la TKAA.  Sadly, Daltrey's exclama-
    tion ("Nearly!) is edited out.
16. "Won't Get Fooled Again" - Shepperton footage a la TKAA.  Shockingly, the 
    credits start rolling during the synth solo.  Shockingly, Daltrey's exclamation ("You
    got ta!!") after the "Same as the old boss" line is edited out (as on the record/CD).
    Only in the film is it left in.  Love the "You got ta!!"  

And that's it.
