Roger Daltrey: And I listen back to myself now in that period, 1964, we got some early, early demos, and, by God, I sound like a 50-year-old black man.

Featured review
Just say this at TIFF
WOW!!! Just saw a screening of the film at the Toronto International Film Festival. It was a great documentary. The directors and producers were on hand to answer questions.
The film follows the careers and lives of the members of The Who from the start of there musical careers till death or present day.
The directors and producers commented that they did not include much of the same footage as the Kids Are Alright because they wanted a different film not just an update of the other. They filtered through thousands of clips of footage and fixed up a large majority of it to be used in the film. Also an intense search for footage was done through an online website were fans could submit any bootlegged films they had.
An interesting side note, a section of the 2nd bonus disc to be released has a never before seen concert of The Who when they were the High Numbers. I grandson of a film maker found a canister of film at his grandfathers chalet and recognized the band playing in the film as an early performance by The Who. That is just amazing that this kind of footage is out there.
Overall it was truly and "Amazing Journey."
