The Who: Your influence and legacy
The WHO are considered one of the most important British rock bands of the 1960s and 1970s. Roger Daltrey, Pete Townshend, John Destchistle and Keith Moon shaped the picture of the New Wave Rock. In its early years, they were part of important role models of the early mod movement and influenced bands such as The Clash and The Jam. At the same time, The WHO includes Led Zeppelin or Jimi Hendrix as a pioneer for the creation of the metal.
To date, the band is musically active. In 2019 her last LP “WHO” was released and the musicians are currently on their farewell tour in the USA.
