I love that in the interview where he coined the term "powerpop", in 1967, Pete Townshend criticised the Beach Boys and The Move for being too artsy and intellectual, not like the Who, who made meaningless pop music you don't have to pay attention to.

"I'd trade 50 Def Leppards for…” Townshend began. “That's not enough. I’d trade 150 Def Leppards for one R.E.M. It's as simple as that.”

“I’d trade 150 Def Leppards for one R.E.M. It's as simple as that.” Pete Townshend on the music he despises, even though he influenced it with one vital Who album
The guitarist wondered “why these guys look like that, and why it is that they think they look so cool?”
