What's so terrible about The Who's album "It's Hard"?

Yes, I like the Who. I'm a little different, though. See, the first "Who" album I heard was "It's Hard", when I was 7 years old in '97. (My mom had it on an old cassette from when she was in high school, she graduated in '83) and "It's Hard" was the ONLY who album I knew about for about the next 8 years...Until I learned about "Tommy" and "Quadrophenia", and their other albums..

I don't understand why any "who" albums after "Who are You", get recognized.. It's like "Face Dances" and "It's Hard" never happened...

What's wrong with "It's Hard"? is it that terribly horrible of an album? I don't understand. The songs I like off of "It's Hard" are "Athena", "Cooks County", "It's Hard", "Eminence Front", "I've Known No War", and "Cry If You Want"

I love the who, don't get me wrong.. they are rock legends...I just don't understand What's so bad about The Who's '80's albums? Am I the only one who loves "It's Hard"?

Here, listen to "It's Hard" and tell me what's so bad about this song? I love both the song and the album:

I'm sorry for throwing a fit. I understand that the who were never the same after Keith Moon died shortly after "Who Are You" was released in '78. It's like, nothing happened after "Who Are You",

I'm sorry for complaining so much, here. It's just that, I like the who's '80's sound with the electric synthesizers... I don't think Kenney Jones's drumming was really that terribly awful, either.

Is there really nothing to love about "It's Hard"?

Update:

I'm just saying that "The Who's" '80s stuff needs more recognition..

    That's right about Keith Moon's departure. But I guess it's because people these days have NO taste in music.

    Face Dances it a great record. It's hard in my opinion was also very good. I think for the fact that After Keith Moons departure, the radios weren't that interested.
