The Who invented a new way of playing rock & roll. Both Moon & Entwistle broke the rules when it came to playing their instruments. They both played incredibly busy (Moon's playing was one long continuous drum fill & Entwistle played bass like he was playing lead guitar). On paper, it shouldn't have worked (and in any other band it wouldn't have) but somehow it did. Add to that Pete's power chords & you've got the often imitated, never duplicated, one and only sound of The Who...

One of the most original bands of all time. They covered some songs extremely well (Roadrunner, Shakin' All Over, Summertime Blues, Eyesight to the Blind) but they have never been accused of stealing music. In a league all their own. Phenomenal.

"("Duck Walk" Trademark Bo Diddley)" . Yeah, you need to be a professor of Rock N' Roll to be familiar with Chuck Berry and his Duck Walk. It's the first image that should pop into your head when somebody says Rock N' Roll. I wasn't aware that Bo Diddley held the rights and the trademark for Chuck's Duck Walk.

That move that Pete does with his leg, huh? Two thumbs up for your comment? It's Pete's version of Chuck Berry's "Duck Walk". Road Runner is a song by some guy who went by the name of Bo Diddley. The intro to Mr. Brownstone might have everything to do with him. You're really into the rock n' roll aren't you? Twenty-three fucking years old and you don't have a clue! Don't you ever think of yourself as rock n' roll or a rock n' roll fan.

@EarlShoes1 everyone's heard more than a thousand times without further examination on what their real contribution to rock music is... I mean, after all those are their hits, not the best or the most representative of their work. Nothing personal against the Beatles by the way. And yes, I love the Who, which won't stop me from saying they actually screwed up a few times by releasing music that didn't showcased their best.
