After Lifehouse

The album had its roots in the flotsam of the disastrous Lifehouse project, which Who bandleader Pete Townshend has variously described as intended to be a futuristic rock opera, a live-recorded concept album and as the music for as a scripted film project. The project proved to be intractable on several levels and caused stress within the band as well as a major falling out between Townshend and The Who's producer Kit Lambert. Years later, in the liner notes to the remastered Who's Next CD, Townshend wrote that the failure of the project led him to the verge of a suicidal nervous breakdown. For the 2005 album by the band Lifehouse, see Lifehouse (Lifehouse album). ... Peter Dennis Blandford Townshend (born May 19, 1945 in Chiswick, London), is an award-winning English rock guitarist, singer, songwriter, and composer. ... The Whos Tommy, the first album explicitly billed as a rock opera A rock opera is a rock music album or stage production that resembles the form of an opera. ... Kit Lambert (May 11, 1935 – April 7, 1981) was a record producer and the manager for The Who. ... Remaster (and its derivations, frequently found in the phrases digitally remastered or digital remastering) is a word and concept ushered into the mass consciousness via the digital age, although it had existed before then. ...

After giving up on recording some of the Lifehouse tracks in New York, The Who went back into the studio with new producer Glyn Johns and started over. Although the Lifehouse concept was abandoned, scraps of the project remained present in the final album. The introductory line to "Pure and Easy" — which Townshend has described as "the central pivot of Lifehouse" — shows up in the closing bars of "Song is Over". An early concept for Lifehouse -- feeding personal data from audience members into the controller of an early analog synthesizer to create musical tracks -- was recycled as Townshend used the vital statistics of Meher Baba as random input to generate a backing track on "Baba O'Riley". A primary result of the abandonment of the original project, however, was a newfound freedom: the very absence of an overriding musical theme or storyline (which had been the basis of previous Who projects) allowed the band to concentrate on maximizing the impact of individual tracks. Glyn Johns (born February 15, 1942 in Epsom, Surrey, England) is a recording engineer and record producer. ... For other uses, see Synthesizer (disambiguation). ... Meher Baba (Persian: مهر بابا DevanāgarÄ«: महर बाबा ), (February 25, 1894, Merwan Sheriar Irani – January 31, 1969), was an Indian spiritual teacher who said he was the Avatar. ... Teenage Wasteland redirects here. ...

Although he gave up his original intentions for the Lifehouse project, Townshend continued to develop the concepts, revisiting them in later albums. In 2006 he opened a website called The Lifehouse Method to accept personal input from applicants which would be turned into musical portraits. The Lifehouse Method is an Internet site where applicants can sit for an electronic musical portrait made up from data they enter into the website. ...

Arrangement and songs

The album was immediately recognized for its dynamic and unique sound. The album fortuitously fell at a time when great advances had been made in sound engineering over the previous decade, and also shortly after the widespread availability of music synthesizers. The result was a sound that was absolutely stunning at the time, and rather unprecedented in rock music (although disliked by some traditional Who fans of the time). However, as full and brash as the sound is on most of the album there are contrasts with finger-picked acoustic guitar, and Roger Daltrey's swaggering vocals alternate with quieter introspective moments. Roger Harry Daltrey, CBE (born 1 March 1944), is a rock vocalist, songwriter, and actor, best known as the founder and lead singer of English rock band The Who. ...

Townshend used the early synthesizers and modified keyboard sounds in several modes: as a drone effect on several songs, notably "Baba O'Riley" and "Won't Get Fooled Again", and, elsewhere, in a more delicate role as in the introductory notes to "Bargain", or as a playful noisemaker, sounding almost like a boiling teapot on "Song is Over". Townshend also used an envelope follower to modulate the spectrum of his guitar on "Going Mobile", giving it a distinctive squawking sound that degenerates into a bubbling noise at the end of the song. In music, a drone is a harmonic or monophonic effect or accompaniment where a note or chord is continuously sounded throughout much or all of a piece, sustained or repeated, and most often establishing a tonality upon which the rest of the piece is built. ...

Envelope follower is the name for a device used in musical electronic environments that detects the amplitude variation during time of an incoming sound and produces a control signal that resembles it. ...

The album opened with the innovative "Baba O'Riley", featuring piano by Townshend and a violin solo by Dave Arbus. Titled in honor of Townshend's guru Meher Baba and influential minimalist composer Terry Riley (and informally known by its chorus line "Teenage Wasteland"), the track brought together Townshend's experimental synthesizer work and exotic textures with the Who's traditional hard-rock sound. Other signature tracks include the ballad "Behind Blue Eyes" and the album's closing song, the epic "Won't Get Fooled Again". Teenage Wasteland redirects here. ...

Cover

The album cover shows a photograph, taken at Easington Colliery, of the band apparently having just urinated on a large concrete piling protruding from a slag heap. According to photographer Ethan A. Russell, most of the members were unable to urinate, so rainwater was tipped from an empty film cannister to achieve the desired effect. The photo is often seen to be a reference to the monolith discovered on the moon in the film 2001: A Space Odyssey, which had been released only about three years earlier. In 2003, the United States cable television channel VH1 named Who's Next's front cover the 2nd greatest album cover of all time. Easington Colliery is an old coal mining town in County Durham, in England. ... A slag heap is a pile made of accumulated tailings, which are by-products of mining. ...

An earlier cover design had featured photos of grotesquely obese nude females and has been published elsewhere, but never actually appeared on the album. An alternate cover featured drummer Keith Moon dressed in black lingerie, holding a rope whip, and wearing a brown wig. Keith John Moon (August 23, 1946 – September 7, 1978) was the drummer of the rock group The Who. ... Assorted lingerie styles. ...

Recognition

Who's Next was a commercial and critical success. "With its acoustic guitars and drumless bits, this triumph of hard rock is no more a pure hard rock album than Tommy," wrote Robert Christgau in his Consumer Guide column. "It's got more juice than Live at Leeds. And...it uses the synthesizer to vary the power trio format, not to art things up. Given Peter Townshend's sharpness and compassion, even his out-front political disengagement - 'I don't need to fight' - seems positive. The real theme, I think, is 'getting in tune to the straight and narrow,' and comes naturally to someone who's devoted a whole LP to the strictures of hit radio. Another sign of growth: the love songs." Christgau gave the album a rare 'A' rating. Tommy (1969) is one of The Whos two full-scale rock operas, and the first musical work explicitly billed as a rock opera. ... Robert Christgau (born April 18, 1942), is an American essayist, music journalist, and the self-declared Dean of American Rock Critics.[1] In print, his name is sometimes abbreviated as Xgau. ... Live at Leeds (1970) is The Whos first live album, and indeed is their only live album that was released while the band was still recording and performing regularly. ...

When the first-ever Pazz & Jop Critics Poll was held at the end of 1971, Who's Next easily won first place, outdistancing its nearest rival by 208 points, a lead of 65 percent. In an essay analyzing the results, Christgau wrote, "Everyone calls Who's Next a great hard rock album, even though it contains several ballads and some arty-type violin and synthesizer stuff. Whatever else, it was clearly the only popular masterpiece of the year." The Pazz & Jop critics poll is a highly influential poll of music critics run by The Village Voice newspaper. ...
