Butch Vig on Why the Who's 'Who's Next' Was Unique
right when it came out, when I was a freshman in high school in Wisconsin. Listening to that record was a total immersive experience. I’d be lying in bed with my headphones on, playing the record over and over and listening to the production, which was incredible. I couldn’t figure out how Townshend used all those keyboards and sequencers. Nobody had ever heard anything like before on a record. I’d play it and air-drum, trying to figure how out Moon played those crazy parts.
That song, and “Won’t Get Fooled Again” and “Behind Blue Eyes,” are all in my top 50 rock songs of all time. “Behind Blue Eyes” is Townshend writing about his own himself, as if he’s looking in a mirror and looking at his own insecurities and maybe the complicated process of dealing with the other personalities in the band. That’s another song that just builds, and when the band kicks in it, it’s incredibly cathartic.
