Lovely stuff. And from an album knocking on the door for greatest of all-time accolade.

@kingpintoo I don't think it's underrated at all. It's got Baba O'Riley and Won't get Fooled Again which are two of their best known songs. But I agree it's one of their best if not their best album.

@lastrada52 If I could just point something out: The songs on "Tommy" aren't just filler for songs like "Pinball Wizard" or "See Me, Feel Me" or "I'm Free"; They're parts of a story. Having said that, Pete was just starting to write operas, so on later works like 'Lifehouse"(which remained uncompleted and had this song as its finale) or "Quadrophenia" didn't contain as many shorter songs like "There's a Doctor" or "It's a Boy"

I have so much to talk about this album but it is very difficult to find words that reach the extent of my admiration ... No comments!

You would think after "Tommy," The Who would coast or they were just spent. How could they have more great songs? How? Instead, The Who come out with an album with equally monster sized songs -- just as good as "Tommy," if not better because this was a single album with no filler. These songs are all anthems of the rock generation. I was quite pleased and impressed with "Tommy," but when this came out I could just shake my head in admiration. The punks are gone, The Who are still standing.

two points to ponder:
#1) as far as the title of the LP, that summer i heard it by accident in my car because it was the only cassette in there that summer, i, me, mr. rkt, was NEXT!!
#2) i sing my heart out to the infinite sea, the sky high mountains, to the FREE!
@rapidJesse that's because pete is singing the verses, and roger is singing the choruses.

If anyone asks me what my favorite album is, it is "Who's Next". And they are one of my very favorite bands too. This is the most underrated album of all time and their best from beginning to end. I have turned many on this the album.
