'''''It's Hard''''' is the tenth [[studio album]] by the English rock band [[the Who]]. Released in September 1982, it was the final Who album to feature bassist [[John Entwistle]], who died in 2002. It was also the second and final Who studio album with drummer [[Kenney Jones]], as well as the last to be released on [[Warner Bros. Records]] in the US. It was released on [[Polydor Records]] in the UK, peaking at No. 11, and on Warner Bros. in the US where it peaked at No. 8 on the ''[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]]'' Pop Albums chart.<ref name="US">{{cite web | url={{AllMusic|class=artist|id=p5822|pure_url=yes}} | title=Artist Chart History – The Who | website=[[AllMusic]] | access-date=24 June 2008 }}</ref> The US rights to both this album and ''[[Face Dances]]'' subsequently reverted to the band, who then licensed them to [[MCA Records]] (later [[Geffen Records]], itself once distributed by WB) for reissue. The album achieved gold status by the [[Recording Industry Association of America|RIAA]] in the US in November 1982. It was their last album for over two decades until ''[[Endless Wire (The Who album)|Endless Wire]]'' in 2006.
