The Who Release New Video For 'Tattoo'

December 6, 2010
The Who Release New Video For 'Tattoo'The Who have released a new video for their 1967 track, ‘Tattoo’.

The video was created by award-winning director Chris Boyle, who has previously worked with Dizzee Rascal.

The video takes the audience on a journey through the track’s lyrics, combining art and Pete Townshend’s lyricism.

Frontman Roger Daltrey said: “This is a great lesser known Townshend song and the animated film captures Pete’s ability to create a complete story in three minutes.

“Although Pete has created Rock Operas such as ‘Tommy’ and ‘Quadrophenia’, which have translated into movies, many of Pete’s songs could be a movie in themselves.”

‘Tattoo’ also featured during their band’s classic Live At Leeds performance in 1970, which has recently been re-issued.
