From Wiki
""The Who are an English rock band that first came to prominence in the 1960s. They grew in stature to become one of the Greatest Rock 'n' Roll Bands of All-Time. Except for periods of retirement from 1983 to 1988 and from 1990 to 1995, the band have continued to perform as a live act and have recently re-entered the studio.

Noted for the dynamism of their performances and for their thoughtful and art-influenced music, they are also acknowledged as having been rock pioneers, popularising, along with contemporaries The Kinks, the power chord and the rock opera (most notably Tommy) under the leadership of Pete Townshend. Their earlier "mod" albums, which boasted short, aggressive pop songs, Townshend's distinctive power chords, Keith Moon's explosive drumming, and constant themes of youthful rebellion and romantic confusion, were formative influences on punk rock and power pop, helping them earn the accolade "The Godfathers of Punk" In their early days they were notorious for auto-destructive art displays, destroying their instruments at the end of shows (especially Townshend, whose guitar-smashing would become a rock cliché, and infamous wildman Keith Moon).""

The Who was a very popular band of the 60s. Although you might no recognize their band name, if you heard some of their music then you probably would.
