I claim the first real rock band for the UK.
Discuss all you envious Americans who have never bettered them.
We also invented Progressive Rock with pink floyd.
We also invented Heavy Metal with Black Sabbath.
The Americans invented hairspray rock!
Discuss with facts.

I'm British and fact is, your wild claims are beginning to embarrass me.
As good as The Who are and as much as I like them, I have to say they didn't just invent Rock.
Genres aren't invented.

A word about The Who being mods...like The Who, the mod movement began with black American R&B.
They didn't "become rock n roll" either, the genuine mod types continued through Soul, Northern Soul and more loosely, Ska.
You really should do your homework ADELE, instead of making threads about something you only have a vague idea of, topped off with what appears to be your own imaginings.
