I don't like this as much as My Generation, especially with some of the odd circus-esque background music choices. However, 'Boris The Spider' is a fun song that has a primordial metal feel to it that I appreciate.

I'll never quite work out the link between The Who and metal but anyway... I went through quite a long phase of The Who during the late 90's and loved the mini-opera. It sounds even better on Live at Leeds and they played another great version of it during The Stones' televised Rock n Roll Circus which will probably be on YouTube somewhere..

I bet a song like I Can See for Miles found a large following, drove parents nuts, open doors for other artists to create the same sound. Other artists like Cream, Blue Cheer, High Tide, Mountain, MC5, Humble Pie, Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin, Hendrix, King Crimson, Black Sabbath (and i could go on... ) continued to push boundaries and we know the results, don't we?  I saw a video of early history of heavy metal, ending obviously with the success of Black Sabbath, I can show it to you, if/when i find it.
