Ryan's Riffs

Who is Ryan celebrating with the 'Windmill' guitar move?

Recollecting a famous move and anti hippie song

So, who do you think of when you see a guitar player on stage doing the famous 'Windmill' move?

Yup, it's Pete Townshend with The Who.

And this week Ryan, morning co-host at 104.7 The LIZARD and the host of 70s at 7 on OV1039, is playing us through one of The Who's biggest hits.

Long before it was used as the theme to the CSI Miami TV series, the hit, Won't Get Fooled Again, had its genesis in Townshend's feelings about the hippie movement.

Check out the video.
