I've always been curious to learn more about this show as I assume this would have been one of the most premiere venues to host the Tommy live performance. Does anyone know if any photos/audio/video were recorded? Cream, Jimi Hendrix, and Led Zeppelin had iconic shows recorded there from 1968 - 1970 and I'm just hoping that The Who would fall in that category. Apparently David Bowie was in attendance and was so taken by the theatrics of the rock opera that it inspired him to get on the track that ultimately led to the Ziggy Stardust era.
More than anything, I'm just surprised there isn't much documentation around this particular show. Any information or feedback would be much appreciated!
