The Who are an English rock band formed in London as The
Detours in 1962. Their classic lineup (1964–1978) consisted of lead vocalist
Roger Daltrey,
guitarist Pete
Townshend, bassist John Entwistle and drummer Keith Moon. They are
considered one of the most influential rock bands of the 20th century and have
sold more than 100 million records worldwide.
They are cited as an influence by many hard rock, punk, power pop
and mod bands.
Townshend considered himself less technical than guitarists, such
as Eric Clapton
and Jeff Beck, and wanted to stand out visually instead. His playing style
evolved from the banjo, favoring down strokes and using a combination of the
plectrum and fingerpicking.

Their appearances at Monterey and Woodstock helped give them a
reputation as one of the greatest live rock acts and they have been credited
with originating the "rock opera".
The group's contributions to rock include the power chord,
windmill strum and the use of non-musical instrument noise such as feedback.
The Who have received many awards and accolades from the
music industry for their recordings and their influence. They received a
Lifetime Achievement Award from the British Phonographic Industry in 1988, and
from the Grammy Foundation in 2001.
The band were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
in 1990 where their display describes them as "prime contenders, in the minds of
many, for the title of World's Greatest Rock Band", and the UK Music Hall of
Fame in 2005.
