Summary: Just listen to WHO uses this Commercially ...................
Comment: that will tell you how great this album is. I first bought the album in 1971 and played it till it was no longer payable.
As much as you hear the short bursts on the television, it gives you an indication of how great this music is. Rock on and widen your scope for THE WHO.

Summary: Spirit rising!!
Comment: This is my favorite album of all time. It is the one album in my collection that transcends the ages. "Who's Next", can still reach me after more than 35 years of discovery. "Baba O'Riley", "Bargain" and "The Song Is Over" speak to the inner spirit of a man, whether he is 18 or 50. It continues to bring pleasure and it always will.

Summary: The Who - Meet The New Boss Same As The Old Boss........
Comment: After the enormous success of the band's previous album "Tommy" it was going to be very difficult for The Who to top it. Pete Townshend started off writing another concept piece called The Lighthouse Project. The recording sessions went on and on with the project eventually suffocating under its own weight. The band gave up on it, and went back into the studio to pick up the pieces. What emerged was the ultimate Who statement and probably one of the ultimate statements of rock n roll. "Who's Next" is about as close to a perfect album as you could get. Starting with the fist pumping anthem "Baba O'riley" and closing with what is in my opinion one of the greatest and most important songs of all time "Won't Get Fooled Again". "Meet the new boss.....same as the old boss", indeed. Words that are as relevant today as when they were written 30 plus years ago. Roger Daltry's famous scream near the end still sends shivers up my spine. In between these two tracks are 6 more great songs, "Bargain", "Love Ain't For Keeping", John Entwistle's "My Wife", "The Song Is Over" which featured the main theme from the abandoned Lifehouse Project, "Getting In Tune", and "Going Mobile". All just classic stuff. This is The Who at the top of their game and solidified their place as one of the greatest rock bands of all time. As great as this album is, in my opinion they topped it with the next one "Quadrophenia".

Summary: A defining moment
Comment: Every one can argue back and forth on the Who's greatest album. But this album goes sooooo far beyond that. This album is one of the few fundamental pillars that define rock and roll. Its place belongs right between Sgt Pepper and Led Zeppelin IV. Any one who does not get that is musically illiterate. Period.
