Both were 100% vital and important. Without Enwistle, Townshend would have never joined The Detours, which evolved into The Who. Without Townshend, 95% of Who songs would have never been written. Never mind the importance of their musical instrument playing finesse...

Happy Birthday to Pete...I hope this genius keeps on writing music until he dies, and that he doesn't die for a very long time. Love Pete, love the Who...best concert I've ever been to.

Roger was the founder of The Detours. It was his band to begin with, in fact he played lead guitar to start. He hired John Entwistle off the street, who recommended Pete Townshend as a good rhythm guitarist. Roger fired Colin Dawson and took over as lead singer, letting Pete pickup lead guitar. The band fired Doug Sandom and picked up Keith Moon on drums, and that's how it stayed t'ill Keith died (more or less).

Pete never picked Roger as "the" singer. However, he was a good fit.

@thankyoupourlavideo without Roger The Who wouldnt have been as big as they were.. Pete was a genius to pick Roger because he was a good singer, very popular, and all the girls loved him.. thats how you pick em..
