Released in 1971, Who's Next is The Who's fifth studio album and their only UK No. 1. Originally conceived as part of Pete Townshend's ambitious Lifehouse project, it became one of the band's most acclaimed records.
From the hypnotic opening of “Baba O'Riley” and the synth-driven “Bargain” to the poignancy of “Behind Blue Eyes” and the explosive “Won't Get Fooled Again”, the album balances experimentation with some of The Who's most enduring songwriting. Townshend's ambition, Daltrey's raw vocals and Keith Moon's frenetic drumming combine to make Who's Next a defining rock album of its era.
