The Who - Who
The Who is a legendary rock band that embodied the true energy and rebellious spirit of the 60s and 70s. Formed in London in 1964, the band consisted of four extremely talented musicians: John Entwistle and Keith Moon, Roger Daltrey, Pete Townshend (the latter two are still in the band). They became pioneers of rock opera, where music was embodied in complex concepts and cinematic performances. The most famous albums Tommy and Quadrophenia" became epochal works that brought the band worldwide fame. Each of the members has extraordinary skills and they all made a unique contribution to The Who's sound: Daltrey was a mesmerizing voice, Townshend was a masterful guitarist, Entwistle created powerful bass lines, and Moon made the drumming rhythms unrestrained. Their concerts were real explosions of emotions and adrenaline that could impress even the most demanding listeners. The Who's work is characterized by unbridled power and authenticity, which still inspires new generations of musicians and brings joy to rock music fans around the world.
