Go to All Music website and do a search for The Who. Select discography and all.

If you meant searching here at TTD, use a tag search for the Who or U2 etc.

To search for a torrent, in the search field I type "the who" and get the following answer
Sorry - no matches. Please try some different terms.
The following words are either very common, too long, or too short and were not included in your search : the

I had the same issue until I scrolled down and saw a lsiting of artists that included The Who.

Look here-http://www.thetradersden.org/forums/tags.php?tag=the+who

The key was to do an advanced search and then put The Who in the tag field. Doing that yielded the same results

Go to Search

Click on Advanced Search

In the Search Options area there is an area on the right - Search By Tag in that area put The Who

Then Click on Search now

Under the "SEARCH" button near the top of any page, do a "Tag" search for the "Who the"

This is the result (http://www.thetradersden.org/forums/tags.php?tag=who+the)

It's not even as difficult as das posted above me.

HB your method works but no way near as many results show. Why I have no clue.

franjagas if you highlight the link and put it in the address bar then it works forr whatever reason. I thought it would be better to show you the complete method in case you wanted to search for someone different at some point

It's because Homebrew101 was suggesting to do a Tag Search on "who the" which gives this result - http://www.thetradersden.org/forums/tags.php?tag=who+the whereas you are searching on "the who" which gives this result - http://www.thetradersden.org/forums/tags.php?tag=the+who When you do a tag search, it seems to look for the terms in the order you list them in (try "rolling stones" versus "stones rolling" and you will see no results for the second tag search).
