The Who is a legendary British rock band formed in London in 1964. Known for their energetic performances and powerful sound, they have become one of the most influential bands in the history of rock music. With hits like "My Generation," "Pinball Wizard," and "Baba O'Riley," The Who has left an indelible mark on the music industry.
Led by guitarist Pete Townshend and vocalist Roger Daltrey, The Who's unique blend of hard rock, pop, and artistry set them apart from their contemporaries. Their iconic live shows, complete with smashing guitars and explosive stage presence, captivated audiences around the world.
Over the years, The Who has released numerous critically acclaimed albums that showcase their musical prowess and lyrical depth. From concept albums like "Tommy" to introspective works like "Quadrophenia," their discography reflects a commitment to pushing boundaries and exploring new sonic territories.

Unlike The Who's three previous albums, 'Tommy', 'Who's Next' and 'Quadrophenia', 'Who By Numbers' is stripped down, back-to-the-basics rock and roll. There are no themes, no operettas, no stories running through multiple songs. Instrumentally, it's comparatively bare-bones; most of the songs are just guitar, bass and drums, played to perfection. Lyrically, the album as a whole is as good as anything Pete Townshend has written, though much more understated, thematically. Even the album cover, John Entwhistle's connect-the-dots drawing, is almost child-like in its simplicity.
