Must Have Guitar Albums - The Who - Whos Next


The Who's 5th studio album released in 1971
From the skittering synth telepathy that kicks off “Baba O’Riley” to the final crashing power chords of “Won’t Get Fooled Again,” this is rock on an epic scale, and an album that captures Townshend, singer Roger Daltrey, bassist John Entwistle and drummer Keith Moon at the height of their formidable powers.
Fans of CSI will recognize a few of the songs
