THE WHO
PETE TOWNSHEND, ROGER DALTREY, KEITH MOON, JOHN ENTWISTLE
An explosive combo that pioneered progressive and arena rock, each new sound
increasing their influence and legacy.They clashed frequently, but these frictions resulted
in a decade's worth of remarkable music. Though it took a while to find their audience,
by the late '60s the Who rivaled the Rolling Stones as a live act and in album sales
'MY GENERATION'

RECORD EX but (please, read above description)
SLEEVE EX but (please, see pictures and read above description)
An explosive debut, and the hardest mod pop recorded by anyone.
At the time of its release, it also had the most ferociously powerful guitars
and drums yet captured on a rock record.
Pete Townshend's exhilarating chord crunches and guitar distortions threaten
to leap off the grooves on "My Generation" and "Out in the Street";
Keith Moon attacks the drums with a lightning, ruthless finesse throughout.
Some "Maximum R&B" influence lingered in the two James Brown covers,
but much of Townshend's original material fused Beatlesque hooks
and power chords with anthemic mod lyrics…(AllMusic)
