I concur in part. Who's Next gave us arguably two of The Who's most popular tunes (Baba and WGFA) and (I believe) it is their best-selling album. But if we'd never heard The Song is Over, Love Ain't for Keeping, and Getting in Tune I don't think we'd have missed much. (Personally, I can't stand Behind Blue Eyes and to make me an even bigger minority, on some level I prefer The Who By Numbers to Who's Next.)

IMHO one of the best songs from "Lifehouse" that didn't make it onto "Who's Next" is "I Don't Even Know Myself", just a great song. And the Isle of Wight version is fantastic.

I got the amazing Lifehouse Chronicles box set that Pete put out in 2000. Only listened to the orchestral works and radio play once, but the other three discs are pure gold. For those who always get the name of Baba O’Riley wrong, there is an actual song called Teenage Wasteland. It may not be everyone’s cup o’ tea, but the Who Are You (Gateway Remix) is astounding.
