the who

Two “Who” items from Rock & Roll History Book. It was on November 20,1965,The Who released the single "My Generation" in the U.S.A. Then in 1973 on November 20th, drummer Keith Moon collapsed twice during The Who's concert in San Francisco

The early days of the Who were tumultuous times. Four different personalities were learning to coexist. The band changed its name three times. Pete Townshend and Keith Moon began to revel in the joy of destroying their instruments. And Roger Daltrey often found himself at odds with the rest of the band...

It's long been trapped in development limbo, but it looks like a movie about the wild life and times of Who drummer Keith Moon might finally be heading for theaters -- with support and creative input from one of Moon's former bandmates, no less.

As everyone was trying to one-up each other in the later part of the '60s -- hoping to keep up with 'Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band' and what it spawned -- Pete Townshend looked forward by looking back. While his contemporaries had psychedelic visions spiraling within their heads, the main songwriter and guitarist for the Who had something else in mind for his band.

As it turned out, Pete Townshend was just getting warmed up with 'Tommy.'

Last week, Pete Townshend said that the Who would embark on one final tour in 2015. And apparently he means it this time. Sort of. Roger Daltrey recently clarified those plans, but confirmed that the group would indeed be performing its last batch of big shows in the near future.

The Who have announced that they will quit touring -- this time for good -- after they play a series of 50th-anniversary shows in 2015.

The Who's 'Tommy' is returning to stores on Nov. 12, and he's put on a few pounds since the last time we saw him.

Legendary Who drummer Keith Moon passed away more than 35 years ago, but he's still never far from Roger Daltrey's thoughts.

Listen up, Who fans -- it isn't every day you have the chance to buy a car once owned by the Ox.

The final album by the Who's original lineup was a product of its time. Released three years after its predecessor, 'The Who by Numbers' (which indeed sounded like the band on autopilot at times), 1978's 'Who Are You' had a lot to contend with, like punk rock, electronics insurgence and perhaps most importantly, a songwriter who seemed to be growing out of his band.

One of the greatest live rock albums was released this week back in 1970. The Who's "Live at Leeds," recorded at The University of Leeds in England. "Live At Leeds" eventually hit #4 on the album charts with over two million copies sold.
