This is for Jan 30, 2026, #KidThe Who, “The Kids Are Alright” soundtrack, 1979
I encountered this film at the height of my Who mania, and it was EVERYTHING to me. It has grainy black-and-white footage of early gigs, TV appearances including the moment on the Smothers Brothers when Keith destroyed Pete’s hearing with explosives (not a metaphor), performances at The Rolling Stones' Rock and Roll Circus and at Woodstock, the video for “Success Story,” an outstanding deep cut of John’s (with the studio recording from “Who By Numbers," not included on the soundtrack album), their last appearance with Keith at Shephardson Studios, staged expressly for the film, and more. What it didn't have is the song “The Kids Are Alright.” (Seems they’ve added it onto the later DVD and Blu-ray releases behind additional closing credits, but I liked their little joke better.)
One of the best segments of the film/selections on the album, and itself somewhat in keeping with the “kid” theme, is their performance of Mose Allison’s “Young Man’s Blues.” The attitude of the original was already pure punk; in The Who’s hands, this jazz/blues piano piece becomes muscular, even menacing.
They fucking kill it.

When all we had were the "big three," I don't remember it ever being this bad. Well except for the #SmothersBrothers Maybe that #fairnessdoctrine policy established in 1949 by the FCC did us some good.

Martin Mull was a terrific guitar player-- and of course, Glen Campbell was one of the greatest guitar players ever. This clip is a classic! #classicTV #1980s #comedy #glencampbell #martinmull #smothersbrothers

Somehow this musical nostalgia blast from my childhood past popped up on one of my feeds recently. Though I don't remember this particular video clip from a Smothers Brothers show, my whole family were big fans of their music and show back in the 1960s. The cheeky/trippy way they staged this mime-for-the-tape performance is so typically clever. And so dang '60s.

Sad, but what a life he had and right up to his mid 80's. I cut my teeth on the Smothers Brothers show and laugh in. It informed my sense of humor and my political awareness.

On my mental soundtrack today, in honor of Tom Smothers, who left an indelible imprint on my sense of humor, not to mention my political awareness. His memory for a blessing.

Here is the last part of this clip, where they talk about CBS canceling them. They were telling the audience what was going on & being funny at the same time.

Last week I posted a #Christmas song of #TommySmothers.
On Christmas day I showed my 91 year old father-in-law some #SmothersBrothers clips. He saw them perform at the Hungry i in San Francisco.
Here's one of the clips we watched. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cY6h7ePOSvo
Note the jokes he slipped in, as well as talk about how CBS wanted to cancel them for talking about reality.
#RIP I liked you best.

RIP Tom Smothers. When I was like 5 I got Yo-Yo Man for my dad's birthday off a TV ad. It was full of Smothers Brothers jokes as Tom teaches you to yo-yo. But best of all, it teaches it in a tongue-in-cheek spiritualism, the mystic art of Yo, and as an adult atheist it's still I think the best religious pitch I've ever heard. I got back into yoyoing like 4 years ago and sometimes just go for a 4 mile walk yo-yoing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rusqc41h8Hk #tomsmothers #smothersbrothers #yoyo
