On December 15, 1977, after a hiatus of more than a year, The Who — Roger Daltrey, Pete Townshend, John Entwistle and Keith Moon — assembled at the Gaumont State Theatre in Kilburn, North London, to record a concert for Jeff Stein’s documentary, The Kids Are Alright. Filmed before an invited audience, it turned out to be Keith Moon’s penultimate live performance. Shot in 35mm, this holy grail for fans has been digitally restored and remastered in high-definition for the ultimate The Who experience. This set also includes The Who’s powerhouse London Coliseum gig from 1969, a never-before-seen rarity and one of the band’s personal favorites.
