At the 10th show of the Winter ’79 tour Roger greets the audience with ‘It’s been along time’ to which Pete responds ‘Not fucking long enough!’ Despite that, Pete comes out swinging! This might be the best show of tour. Pete starts out the show in punk rock mode, wearing a leopard print t-shirt, which along with his Dr. Martins (from Robot on Chelsea Road, for the fashionable among you…)seems to put him in a more youthful/rebellious frame of mind. This is reflected in his playing, as he is at the top of his game for the entire show. After the first couple of songs, he traded the t-shirt for black jacket with no shirt.
This is the first of two nonconsecutive shows at the Capitol Centre. In response to the deaths at the show in Cincinnati, then-Providence Mayor Vincent ‘”Buddy” Cianci, who oversaw the Providence Civic Center auditorium, canceled the show that was to be held there on December 17th. The Who’s management looked at their options and decided to add a second show at the Capital Centre to make up for the canceled show.
Just as a side note, The Capital Centre, along with The Philadelphia Spectrum, the Chicago International Amphitheater, the Richfield Coliseum, and the Buffalo Memorial Auditorium, have all been torn down as well as the next two dates on this tour, The Veteran’s Memorial New Haven Coliseum and The Boston Garden, and the Pontiac Silverdome, while still there, is no longer in use…time marches on.

The encore here features some of my favorite improvised lyrics of the tour. ‘I listen to all the great thinkers, but I prefer to listen to the great drinkers. I was born in a trunk in Acton, and I like Eric Clapton…just got to be happy and dance it away!’. The version of ‘How Can You Do It Alone’ that follows is a very uptempo ‘punk’ take on it, including a ‘one-two-three-four’ count in.
The tape for this one came out particularly good as we were in the 8th row on the floor in front of Pete, which, were about the same seats we had three years earlier for the Who’s performance here. (Still on the tracker at:http://www.dimeadozen.org/torrents-details.php?id=261431)

Sound Quality: A good, but incomplete audience recording the guitar is a little too loud, but it’s a minor complaint.

Details: A very good show and recording, but a substantial part wasn’t taped ‘My Generation’ is definitely missing and probably ‘Water’ and ‘I Donít Even Know Myself’ as well. The group gives another fine performance, equaling the outstanding show at this same venue the year before. The playing is at its usual very high standard for this era and Townshendís solos are blistering in ‘Heaven and Hell’ and ‘Young Man Blues’ later what sounds like a flaw in the recording makes for a bizarre version of ‘Tommyís Holiday Camp’. The parts of the show that were taped are well-recorded and itís puzzling why only an hour of this great show exists.

57:01 Minutes.

Notes:
JEMS master recording and excellent sounding recording. This is the first time(August 2009) a transfer of this recording has been made available directly from the master cassette. All songs are complete with the only cut at the tape flip during the audience cheering between Magic Bus/Amazing Journey.

After about a seven week layoff The Who returned to the stage for the first night of their ‘Worldwind Tour’ which consisted of 2 shows at the Capital Centre just outside Washington D.C. and 2 shows in Florida. Despite being a little rusty this was a great show, as was the following night. This was my first long road trip to see The Who, and this first night I was in the eighth row, on Pete’s side of the stage. This is one of my best Who recordings. I’ve included a couple of photos I took during Sparks this night.
