O knihe

Foreword by Dave Davies. Fifty years after Pete Townshend, Roger Daltrey, John Entwistle, and Keith Moon

made their first ruckus together onstage, the world is still fascinated with its greatest rock-and-roll band.

Whether their music is popping up in TV commercials and the various incarnations of CSI or the remaining members

are performing at the Super Bowl, the Olympics, or multitudinous charity events, the Who have never faded away. Yet

while such artists as the Beatles, Bob Dylan, and Led Zeppelin have been pored over, flipped on their backs, and

examined from every imaginable angle, the Who remain somewhat mysterious. Questions persist. Who were their most

important influences, and which other bands were their most loyal followers? Did they really create the very first

rock opera? What were their most important collaborations, gigs, solo projects, and phases? Where do they stand on

politics, religion, and philanthropy? The answers to these questions don't amount to mere trivia but create a

clearer portrait of the enigma that is the Who. Whether they were Mods or punk pioneers, rock Wagners, or a gang of

guitar-smashing thugs, the Who are a band beyond categorization or comparison, a band that constantly poses new

questions and The Who FAQ digs deep to find the answers.
