This documentary is certainly a must for everybody who loves rock music and is a fan of The Who and of the other wonderful bands of that period. Solidly made and smartly realized it succeeds to get on screen all the principal participants in the process of the creation of the 'Who's Next' album, and retraces the history of its making, from the original rock opera idea (it was supposed to be a follow-up to 'Tommy'), through the failed happening in the London Vic Theatre and the high tech recordings in New York, and back to the London recordings which gave the final form of the album. It is certainly a chance to see Roger Daultrey and Pete Townsend and the other telling the story, the change in age - and hair-dress :-) - makes you philosophize about the passing of generations and fashion, but overall it is the combination of the interviews with the filmed sequences of the 60s and 70s and with the wonderful music that makes this film both an educational as well as an entertaining experience.
