Emerging from the mid-60s R&B mod scene with furious teenage anthems like `My Generation,' The Who were the wildest, angriest and loudest kids on the block. But, in spite of Townshend's most famous line, `Hope I die before I get old,' and unlike so many rivals, The Who lived to forge more mature works in the late 1960s and the 1970s with the phenomenal success of pioneering rock opera Tommy, revered song collection Who's Next and Townshend's mod masterpiece Quadrophenia and beyond.
