The Who's Tommy 1969 concept album is a full-blown rock opera about a deaf, dumb and blind boy that launched the band to international superstardom - and recognizing them as a serious "albums band." It regularly turns up on lists of the most influential albums of all time.
Originally banned by the BBC and by some U.S. radio stations, the underlying child abuse and molestation theme in the tale of the "deaf, dumb and blind" Tommy Walker was a startling, darker side to the former mod-rockers from Shepherds Bush. The album peaked at No. 4 on the Billboard chart. Townshend proved to himself and the world he could still attempt such libretto and still rock. It spawned such Who staples as "Pinball Wizard," "The Acid Queen," "I'm Free" and "We're Not Gonna Take It/See Me, Feel Me."
