The Who, photographed on June 5, 1969, had just released their landmark rock opera Tommy. In a “People Are Talking About …” feature of Vogue, Tommy was praised as “celebrating the quiet divinity of explosion”, seriously extending rock’s musical range. The Who were John Entwistle, Pete Townshend, Keith Moon, and Roger Daltrey. Along with The Beatles and The Rolling Stones, The Who were part of “the holy trinity of British rock” in the words of Rolling Stone magazine.
