The Who DVD

| DVD

Bio's backstage pass to one of rock's greatest bands. Among the iconic British rock bands of the 1960s The Who set a standard for innovation. Led by Pete Townshend's writing and distinctive guitar styling Roger Daltrey's haunting vocals and Keith Moon's percussion genius The Who gained a global following for their on-stage instrument destruction concept albums and rock operas. In this programme we take a trip back to the swinging 60s when The Who were the talk of London with their mod fashions and aggressive stage presence. In their fledgling days they were an unbelievable... powerhouse of talent but their dynamic mix of personality is what gave The Who their power. Behind the scenes though personal battles within the group and alcohol and drug use would hugely affect the band and their creativity. Featuring archive clips of Townsend and Moon as well as interviews with friends colleagues and industry insiders this is an insightful and revealing look at one of the most legendary rock bands ever formed.
