The Who with the track 5:15 from their masterstoke, Quadrophenia. Johnny can and will make the case Quadrophenia is the best album ever cut. The album and it's message and themes cut very close to Johnny growing up. Pete Townsend's lyrics and music truly is a reflection of parts of Johnny's teen angst years. The star of the movie, Jimmy, was a lot like Johnny growing up trying to find out who he was and how exactly the world would punch you in the nose if you didn't start punching first. Both sought clarity in 'medication' if you can call that clarity and not the escapism it really was.
