1	Tommy (1969) more music like this by The Who add to wishlist The full-blown rock opera about a deaf, dumb, and blind boy that launched the band to international superstardom, written almost entirely by Pete Townshend. Hailed as a breakthrough upon its release, its critical standing has diminished somewhat in the ensuing decades because of the occasional pretensions of the concept and because of the ... see all copies from $3.00! new only from $10.41!
2	Quadrophenia (1973) more music like this by The Who add to wishlist Pete Townshend revisited the rock opera concept with another double-album opus, this time built around the story of a young mod's struggle to come of age in the mid-'60s. If anything, this was a more ambitious project than Tommy, given added weight by the fact that the Who weren't devising some fantasy but were re-examining the roots of their own ... see all copies from $6.99! new only from $14.66!
3	Two Rooms: Celebrating the Songs of Elton John & Bernie Taupin (1991) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist Two Rooms is a wildly uneven star-studded tribute to a wildly uneven superstar songwriting team. Though Elton John and Bernie Taupin wrote many of the best pop songs of the '70s and '80s, they have written more than their fair share of clunkers as well. Some of them were chosen for this collection. Tina Turner, for example, tackles the ludicrously ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $4.99!
4	The Ultimate Collection (2002) more music like this by The Who add to wishlist Following in the footsteps not only of Universal's many Ultimate Collection, but also the Beatles 1 -- a groundbreaking collection in the sense that it proved that a collection that contains all the hits will actually sell on CD (thereby proving the cynical ploy of leaving hits off a compilation in order to sell catalog is flawed) -- the Who's ... see all copies from $9.99! new only from $9.99!
5	Live at Leeds (1970) more music like this by The Who add to wishlist Rushed out in 1970 as a way to bide time as the Who toiled away on their follow-up to Tommy, Live at Leeds wasn't intended to be the definitive Who live album, and many collectors maintain that the band had better shows available on bootlegs. But those shows weren't easily available whereas Live at Leeds was, and even if this show may not have ... see all copies from $2.99! new only from $17.98!
6	Greatest Hits [RCA] (1999) more music like this by The Guess Who add to wishlist There have been plenty of Guess Who collections on the market, from the original Best of the Guess Who to the multi-disc Track Record. Of all of these, the best is the 1999 collection Greatest Hits, which contains a generous 18 songs, including all but two of their charting American singles -- not counting 1965's "Shakin' All Over," the missing ... see all copies from $8.06! new only from $8.06!
7	The Who Sell Out (1967) more music like this by The Who add to wishlist Pete Townshend originally planned The Who Sell Out as a concept album of sorts that would simultaneously mock and pay tribute to pirate radio stations, complete with fake jingles and commercials linking the tracks. For reasons that remain somewhat ill defined, the concept wasn't quite driven to completion, breaking down around the middle of side ... see all copies from $5.45! new only from $5.98!
8	Endless Wire [CD/DVD] (2006) more music like this by The Who add to wishlist The Who retired following their 1982 farewell tour but like Frank Sinatra's frequent retreats from the stage, it was not a permanent goodbye. Seven years later, the band -- Pete Townshend, Roger Daltrey and John Entwistle; that is, Keith Moon's replacement Kenny Jones wasn't invited back -- embarked on a reunion tour, and ever since then the band ... see all copies from $3.00! new only from $3.44!
9	Who's Next [Bonus Tracks] (1971) more music like this by The Who add to wishlist Much of Who's Next derives from Lifehouse, an ambitious sci-fi rock opera Pete Townshend abandoned after suffering a nervous breakdown, caused in part from working on the sequel to Tommy. There's no discernable theme behind these songs, yet this album is stronger than Tommy, falling just behind Who Sell Out as the finest record the Who ever cut. ... see all copies from $8.99! new only from $10.39!
10	Live at Leeds [Bonus Tracks] (1970) more music like this by The Who add to wishlist Rushed out in 1970 as a way to bide time as the Who toiled away on their sequel to Tommy, Live at Leeds wasn't intended to be the definitive Who live album and many collectors maintain that the band had better shows only available on bootlegs. But those shows weren't easily available whereas Live at Leeds was, and even if this show may not have ... see all copies from $5.98! new only from $5.98!
11	The Who by Numbers (1975) more music like this by The Who add to wishlist The Who by Numbers functions as Pete Townshend's confessional singer/songwriter album, as he chronicles his problems with alcohol ("However Much I Booze"), women ("Dreaming From the Waist" and "They Are All in Love"), and life in general. However, his introspective musings are rendered ineffective by Roger Daltrey's bluster and the cloying, ... see all copies from $4.99! new only from $11.93!
12	The Concert for New York City (2001) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist see all copies from $1.99! new only from $11.49!
13	The Who Sings My Generation (1965) more music like this by The Who add to wishlist An explosive debut, and the hardest mod pop recorded by anyone. At the time of its release, it also had the most ferociously powerful guitars and drums yet captured on a rock record. Pete Townshend's exhilarating chord crunches and guitar distortions threaten to leap off the grooves on "My Generation" and "Out in the Street"; Keith Moon attacks ... see all copies from $2.99! new only from $6.00!
14	Quick One (Happy Jack) [Bonus Tracks] (1966) more music like this by The Who add to wishlist The Who's second album is a less impressive outing than their debut, primarily because, at the urging of their managers, all four members penned original material (though Pete Townshend wrote more than anyone else). The pure adrenaline of My Generation also subsided somewhat as the band began to grapple with more complex melodic and lyrical themes ... see all copies from $5.99! new only from $5.99!
15	Live at Leeds [Deluxe Edition] (1970) more music like this by The Who add to wishlist This two-disc set should be the final word regarding the Who's February 14, 1970, performance at Leeds University. The main impetus for consumers -- who may have repurchased this title in its various formats -- is having the entire Tommy rock opera intact. While impressive, that performance merely scratches the surface of the multifaceted sonic ... see all copies from $18.89! new only from $18.89!
16	Who's Next [Deluxe Edition] (1971) more music like this by The Who add to wishlist The Who's catalog was revamped in the mid-'90s, with every title (except My Generation, due to legal entanglements with producer Shel Talmy) receiving new remastering and bonus tracks. Nearly eight years later, Who's Next, one of the group's most beloved albums, was given another remastered/expanded treatment as part of Universal Chronicles' ... see all copies from $21.67! new only from $21.67!
17	Who Are You [Bonus Tracks] (1978) more music like this by The Who add to wishlist On the Who's final album with Keith Moon, their trademark honest power started to get diluted by fatigue and a sense that the group's collective vision was beginning to fade. As instrumentalists, their skills were intact. More problematic was the erratic quality of the material, which seemed torn between blustery attempts at contemporary relevance ... see all copies from $10.54! new only from $10.54!
18	It's Hard [1997 Remaster] (1982) more music like this by The Who add to wishlist Driven by Pete Townshend's arching musical ambitions, It's Hard was a final effort from the Who. Featuring layers of synthesizers and long-winded, twisting song structures, the album featured the anthemic "Athena" and the terse "Eminence Front." [The compact disc reissue adds four bonus tracks to the original 12-song lineup, all of them live. ... see all copies from $10.99! new only from $10.99!
19	Pure 70's (1999) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist Since there was a Pure Funk and Pure Disco, it makes sense that a Pure '70s would follow. It couldn't be called "Pure Rock," since a lot of this simply doesn't rock at all -- "American Pie," anyone? However, all 20 songs on this collection (mostly culled from the Polygram vaults) reek of the '70s, and that's why this is a fun listen. Yes, it's ... see all copies from $3.99!
20	Who's Next (1971) more music like this by The Who add to wishlist Much of Who's Next derives from Lifehouse, an ambitious sci-fi rock opera Pete Townshend abandoned after suffering a nervous breakdown, caused in part from working on the sequel to Tommy. There's no discernable theme behind these songs, yet this album is stronger than Tommy, falling just behind Who Sell Out as the finest record the Who ever cut. ... see all copies from $5.00! new only from $15.22!
21	Odds & Sods (1974) more music like this by The Who add to wishlist Odds & Sods, a compilation of outtakes and rarities from the Who's first decade, is a rather jumpy listen that harbors few songs that could be termed top of the line. Also, since its 1974 release, several of the tracks have been issued on other compilations, or as bonus tracks to CD reissues of legitimate Who albums. Setting your expectations at ... see all copies from $3.14! new only from $11.93!
22	20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of The Who (1999) more music like this by The Who add to wishlist Like any record company worth their salt, MCA knows a good gimmick when they see it, and when the millennium came around -- well, the 20th Century Masters -- The Millennium Collection wasn't too far behind. Supposedly, the millennium is a momentous occasion, but it's hard to feel that way when it's used as another excuse to turn out a budget-line ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $4.22!
23	The Kids Are Alright (1979) more music like this by The Who add to wishlist Like the film itself, the soundtrack to the Who's Kids Are Alright documentary is frustrating even as it pleases, since it falls short of being definitive. If the film was supposed to explain the excitement and history of the Who, tracing their evolution from mod superstars to arena rock gods, it somehow failed by just not quite gelling. Similarly ... see all copies from $3.76! new only from $10.41!
24	The BBC Sessions (2000) more music like this by The Who add to wishlist A fine compilation of 1965-73 BBC performances, the majority of the tracks hailing from 1965-67, although some are drawn from 1970 and 1973. As one of the best live bands ever, the Who as expected come through pretty well in the live-in-the-studio environment, although the arrangements usually stick close to the records. Most of the songs were ... see all copies from $5.35! new only from $11.93!
25	NRG Unlimited, Vol. 1 (1996) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist NRG Unlimited, Vol. 1 is a 16-track compilation of relentless, hard-hitting Hi-NRG dance cuts from the '90s. Only a handful of cuts, like M People's "Excited," were actually hits, but all of the cuts deliver wild, infectious rhythms that come close to capturing what Hi-NRG's all about. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
