The Story Behind: The Who - Who's Next, Ep 182

The Story Behind: The Who - Who's Next, Ep 182

Musicians recount the strange and unexpected story behind the making of your favorite albums. The Who were at the peak of their rock and roll powers and Pete Townshend wanted more! He set about making a rock opera called LifeHouse but ended up with Who's Next. The fellas discuss constant drum soloing, clear and present bass, and successful early synth explorations.
