The book muses on the fact that the studio always somewhat deadened the energy of the band, and that the best way to experience them was live. That sure as hell seems to be the case here, the band is explosive. Moon's drumming seems totally out of control yet fits perfectly into the songs. Entwistle's bass-playing pins the song down while still being dexterous and exciting! Townsend and Daltry paint over the top of all of this.
There's a hilarious contrast between the wild rocking performance and the quiet, polite well-spoken moments in between (with the occasional cheeky interjection by Keith up the back in the cheap seats).
