I love New Kid in Town. One of my favorites. Great second song on any album.
Life in the Fast Lane has a great riff, but is not their best.
Wasted Time is filler.
Victim of Love is average compared to all the other great tunes mentioned in this thread.
Joe Walsh's Pretty Maids All in a Row is a really nice tune. It reminds me of Two Lonely Old People on McCartney's Venus and Mars. It's the second or third best tune on the record after Hotel and New Kid.
Try and Love Again and The Last Resort are so so. They're filler. The Eagles have Henley, Frey, Walsh, and Felder and they couldn't come up with something better than these two to end the album?
Again, Who's Next ended with Won't Get Fooled Again.
Hotel California is a contender, but barely. Easy decision. Who's Next is a better rock album than Hotel California. Don't forget Townshend wrote 7 of the 8 songs on Who's Next. Henley, Frey, Walsh, and Felder shared the workload. Are you kidding me? They could have done a lot better.
Who's Next wins.
