He introduced "the power chord, the major modus operandi of modern rock guitarists" such as Pete Townshend of The Who. It is thought that John Entwistle wrote the song but gave the credit to Moon, as all members of The Who were supposed to write at least two B-sides, although Roger Daltrey only wrote one, "Here for More", the B-side for "The Seeker" in 1970.
