Very few rock bands have had a more lasting impact on the rock era than The Who. Emerging within the British Invasion of the the 1960s, The Who were a new, incendiary force that clearly changed music and influenced countless bands and musicians, including the Beatles, Led Zeppelin, and Pink Floyd. Their defiant, explosive energy, coupled with controled chaos, stage presence, and extreme musical talent, enabled The Who to trailblaze an entirely new template for rock, punk, and everything after. Listen toThe Who, and you’ll find that there simply is no other band that sounds like them.

"They (The Who) were really influential on our band in a big way."

Geddy Lee of Rush
