==Background==
In 1969, Pete Townshend, The Who's guitarist, was the catalyst behind the formation of the band. The concept was to create a band to perform songs written by drummer and singer Speedy Keen, who had written "Armenia City in the Sky", the first track on ''The Who Sell Out''.〔John Dougan, 〕 Townshend recruited jazz pianist Andy 'Thunderclap' Newman (a friend from art college),〔Kim Cooper, David Smay, 〕 and 15-year-old Glaswegian guitarist Jimmy McCulloch, who subsequently played lead guitar in Paul McCartney's Wings from 1974 to 1977 and died of a heroin overdose in 1979 aged just 26.〔Jeremy Simmonds, 〕 Keen played the drums and sang the lead.
