Book Musik 045 - A BAND WITH BUILT-IN HATE: THE WHO FROM POP ART TO PUNK with Peter Stanfield

Tosh and Kimley are joined by author Peter Stanfield to discuss his
new book A BAND WITH BUILT-IN HATE: THE WHO FROM POP ART TO PUNK.
The Who is a band rife with contradictions and easily one of the
most acutely self-aware bands to come out of the British music
scene of the 1960s. From recording ads on THE WHO SELL OUT to the
rock opera TOMMY, The Who explored the vast continuum of what
popular music could be. They were anti-intellectual intellectuals
who embraced constant change and who weren’t afraid to smash a few
guitars along the way.
