I still have no idea why The Who are on Metal Storm, and I know it's a bit inappropriate to add another staff pick now when we're celebrating the work of the many musicians who passed last week. But one of the greatest rock albums of all time turned 50 years a few days ago. It's bombastic, showcases fantastic chemistry, it's bookended by some of classic rock's absolute best songs, it has slight forays into prog rock, and it has the beast that is Keith Moon on drums. I call that a bargain.

Why is this in MS?

same. this and most of Classic Prog Rock.

While It can't be denied its influence in Heavy Metal music, it doensn't really belong (or at least shouldnt).

That's why it's invisible.

This album is legendary! Even if it's not everyone's thing, you can still appreciate it's importance in the world of Rock, and the influence it had on a whole generation.
Won't Get Fooled Again and Baba O'Riley will always remain favourite Who songs of mine.

It's amazing how it builds up to that Scream, one of the best endings I've heard!
