Documentary about British rock band The Who & the release of their 1969 concept album ' Tommy'. Although the band had struggled for years as a 'singles act' in the run-up to the release, ' Tommy' asserted the group as one capable of huge mainstream success & cultural importance. The album has since gone on to sell over 20 million copies & has inspired stage productions as well as a feature film in 1975. Included in this documentary are interviews with the band members themselves as well as sound engineer Bob Pridden & artwork creator Mike Mc Innerney.
