This looks like a typical lip-sync job from Germany's Beat Club TV show, but hey, it's really them, the classic lineup of the band doing their best-known song. Granted, it was written by someone else, and they pretty much lifted the Who's arrangement (although the Who did not release a recorded version until 1970, they had been performing it live for several years before then), but when I was fifteen this blew me away. In the same way that people point to Jackie Brenson's "Rocket 88" as the first rock and roll song, before that term was adopted, this was heavy metal before the term existed.
