Originally known as The Detours, the band's classic line-up of singer Roger Daltrey, guitarist Pete Townshend, bassist John Entwistle and drummer Keith Moon came together under their current moniker in 1964. Encouraged to follow the Beatles and Rolling Stones' lead and write their own material, within a few years they were releasing a track that would go on to define an era, 'My Generation'. Experiencing huge success with its parent album, by the 1970s they were one of Britain's biggest rock groups, famed for a frenetic approach to live performances embodied by Moon's uniquely aggressive drumming style.
