Album Notes & Community Reviews

Anchored by a highly innovative, pulsating sequencer track generated on an EMS VCS 3 synthesizer, this cynical epic closed the legendary 'Who's Next' LP. Pete Townshend's weary dismissal of political revolution, combined with Roger Daltrey's monumental concluding scream, created an absolute zenith of progressive stadium rock.
