The best live album ever, one of the best rock albums ever and two rock operas. What's not to like.
I love Keith Moon. His drumming makes The Who's worst songs listenable, but the majority of their music is totally overblown indulgence with terribly dumb lyrical storylines
Killer singles, fantastic albums and incredible concerts, The Who is the greatest rock band of them all.
Live at Leeds is the best live album I've ever heard. It's what really pushes The Who well into my top 5 favorite bands.
Inspired me to be a musician, so obviously they're important to me. I may not listen to them as much as I used to, but every single time I come back to them I'm rewarded. I will always identify with them because they've become a part of me as a person, and are endlessly important to me.
A vital band.
Them and the Kinks are a couple of the best punk pioneers and only a handful can pound the skins like Moon, Bonham, Grohl and Krupa.
Like them, don't love them like I love Led Zep or The Stones. Don't know why. None of their albums, apart from Who's Next ever really grabbed me like LZ I - IV or Sticky Fingers or Exile did, 1st to last track. Still produced some truly great songs tho'
The Who are bedrock. Loud, proud, and creative. Capable of simple melodies and soaring rock operas. Some of the best players in the game. On par with Zeppelin.
I may never understand what the big deal is.
