The Who Sell Out (Remastered) – The WhoView More By The Who Our ReviewFlush with newly minted American success, the Who showed the U.S. just what they were capable of. Even if they abandon Sell Out's pirate-radio broadcast conceit after the album's first half, they make it their most refreshing album ever. Amid the still hilarious commercial parodies, Pete Townshend's (and John Entwistle's) songwriting leaps forward again and again here, while the band's playing is almost orchestral.

I am from an entirely different generation and generally prefer rap. But i still love the Who. This album is timeless. The Who are timeless. BiographyFormed: 1964 in London, EnglandGenre: Rock Years Active: '60s, '70s, '80s, '90s, '00s Few bands in the history of rock & roll were riddled with as many contradictions as the Who. All four members had wildly different personalities, as their notoriously intense live performances demonstrated. The group was a whirlwind of activity, as the wild Keith Moon fell over his drum kit and Pete Townshend leaped into the air with his guitar, spinning his right hand in exaggerated windmills. Vocalist Roger Daltrey strutted across the stage with a thuggish menace, as bassist John Entwistle...
