A short track on the LP but often extended to a 10+ minute Psych freak out on the 68 tour.
The second installment of Townshend's extended pieces that started with A Quick One in 66, this in 67 and finally culminated with Tommy (originally titled The Amazing Journey) in 69. Elements of Sparks from Tommy feature in this track too.

WARNING - No opinion splitting chants to get aerated about but if you care about bass drums being treated respectfully then you may find this video offensive:
A curio stand alone release from 72. Loosely linked to the aborted Lifehouse project it features a unique guitar sound and oddly subdued drums. I sometimes think Keith didn't really know what what to play over the funkyish feel of the track. John's bass work exemplary as always. Here they're miming with Rog singing live on OGWT.

In the liner notes to the Velvet Underground's box set Peel Slowly and See, Lou Reed wrote, "'Rock and Roll' is about me. If I hadn't heard rock and roll on the radio, I would have had no idea there was life on this planet. Which would have been devastating - to think that everything, everywhere was like it was where I come from. That would have been profoundly discouraging. Movies didn't do it for me. TV didn't do it for me. It was the radio that did it."
