Im gonna get flamed to hell and back, but the latter Pearl Jam albums have the occasional tinge of the Who,

Im a big Pearl Jam fan and agree with you whole-hearted, its PJ that got me into The Who. They even cover Baba O Riley with Steve Diggle of The Buzzcocks. Only PJ sound as good imo. Bands similar to PJ like Mother Love Bone and Soundgarden sound a lot like The Who but are no-where near as good imo.

Thanks for the suggestions guys, ill check them out :)
 
Who's next right through to the end those bands sound lots like The Who imo.

Late SoundGarden and late PJ are the who through and through imo, they moved away from the Seatle four scene and matured into something sounding like the who.

I could probably match up songs that sound so similar they could be almost cover versions tbh. Yellow Ledbetter (even though its a take on a hendrix song) and Elderly Woman are deffo influenced and sound like The Who.

I could do that for 100's of bands but none of them will be as good as the who imo, except for PJ, Mother Love Bone and SoundGarden.

BTW Ive built guitars for both Oasis and Dodgy, didnt realise Dodgy were rated at all tbh, they were pants :D
 
Temple of the Dog - Temple of the Dog

Specifically the track - Hunger Strike

btw im not really after a discussion on who or what these bands sound like, just after suggestions on baba o riley sounds :)
