When:

Short story:

The Who appear on UK tv show Top Of The Pops, in Studio A, BBC Television, Manchester, performing I Can't Explain. They also play at Cooks Ferry Inn, Edmonton, London, UK.

Full article:

Pete Townshend (guitarist, The Who) : When I Can't Explain was released early in January, we had no idea what would happen to it. Our first record, as The High Numbers, had flopped and I Can't Explain could easily have gone the same way.

It was not until the end of March that it actually got into the charts. It's been there for about six weeks now and although we know it won't go higher than number ten, we think it will bang around for a little while yet.
