Description: "The Who were one of the most innovative and unique British rock bands of the '60s. Although they had many hits at home, they didn't make much of an impression on the American charts until their breakthrough rock-opera, Tommy, was released in 1969. To introduce their new fans to their back catalog of single hits, the band soon after assembled the classic album Meaty, Beaty, Big and Bouncy, covering their best material from 1965 to 1970.

This book tells the story of these early sessions, in the words of the band members, producers, managers, and critics who experienced them."--BOOK JACKET.
