17. Pete Townshend (The Who)
There’s more to The Who legend then his windmill-wielding right arm. An intelligent musician, Townshend seems to have a plan for everything he does while on the guitar. He can play with power, but is also known for his brilliant chord work. A song like “I Can’t Explain” seems simple enough, but is a subtle example of Townshend’s talent without trying too hard.
