Thanks a lot Mr Kibblewhite. My Story
Roger Daltrey/The Who - Book - by Roger Daltrey
(2018)
The frontman of one
of the greatest bands of all time tells the story of his rise from
nothing to rock 'n' roll megastar, and his wild journey as the voice of
The Who.
“It’s taken me three years to unpack the events of
my life, to remember who did what when and why, to separate the myths
from the reality, to unravel what really happened at the Holiday Inn on
Keith Moon’s 21st birthday,” says Roger Daltrey, the powerhouse vocalist
of The Who. The result of this introspection is a remarkable memoir,
instantly captivating, funny and frank, chock-full of well-earned wisdom
and one-of-kind anecdotes from a raucous life that spans a tumultuous
time of change in Britain and America.
Born during the air
bombing of London in 1944, Daltrey fought his way (literally) through
school and poverty and began to assemble the band that would become The
Who while working at a sheet metal factory in 1961. In Daltrey’s voice,
the familiar stories—how they got into smashing up their kit, the
infighting, Keith Moon’s antics—take on a new, intimate life. Also here
is the creative journey through the unforgettable hits including My Generation, Substitute, Pinball Wizard, and the great albums, Who’s Next, Tommy, and Quadrophenia.
Amidst all the music and mayhem, the drugs, the premature deaths, the
ruined hotel rooms, Roger is our perfect narrator, remaining sober
(relatively) and observant and determined to make The Who bigger and
bigger. Not only his personal story, this is the definitive biography of
The Who.
