ABOUT THE WHO\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Who<\/strong>\u00a0are one of the top three greatest rock legacies in music history.\u00a0 Their music provoked explosive change and spanned what many critics declare is rock\u2019s most elastic creative spectrum, with Pete Townshend\u2019s songwriting moving between raw, prosaic, conceptual, and expressively literate.\u00a0 Their visionary sense of stagecraft headed by Roger Daltrey\u2019s soaring vocal prowess is topped off by the band\u2019s blistering rhythm section.\u00a0 With both Roger and Pete delivering their memoirs in recent years (Pete\u2019s\u00a0Who I Am\u00a0<\/em>was released to much acclaim in 2012, and Roger\u2019s autobiography,\u00a0Thanks A Lot Mr. Kibblewhite; My Story<\/em>, was embraced by critics in 2018) it\u2019s fitting that the two remaining\u00a0WHO\u00a0<\/strong>members have shared their incredible legacy in literary fashion, for few bands have had a more lasting impact on the rock era and the reverberating pop culture than\u00a0The Who.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
