Amazing Journey: The Story of The Who is a 2007 documentary by Murray Lerner and Paul Crowder about the English rock and roll band The Who. The film features new interviews with band members Roger Daltrey, John Entwistle, Kenney Jones, and Pete Townshend, as well as Sting, The Edge, Noel Gallagher, Eddie Vedder, Steve Jones, and others. It also includes rare photos of the four members of the band and archival live footage of performances dating back to 1964. A soundtrack accompanying the film also serves as a greatest-hits compilation for the band. The two-DVD set includes footage not seen in earlier documentaries, including film from the 1970 Leeds University appearance, never-before-seen footage of a show in Copenhagen that shows Daltrey leaving the stage because the performance of the other members of The Who broke down into chaotic noise due to amphetamines—which resulted in a fight between Daltrey and Moon backstage and Daltrey being kicked out of the band temporarily—and a 1964 performance at the Railway Hotel when they were The High Numbers.
***SPOILER ALERT***
Oh man, what a crazy band! I had to watch this two times. It is a MUST-watch for anyone in a band.
This scene of the Copenhagen show is so goddamn funny for so many reasons.
The Who have been really growing on me lately. I've been enjoying the album Quadrophenia way too much.
