Description
Roger Daltrey's life story is a testament to the power of rebellion and determination. Born at the height of the Blitz, he grew up in a world of turmoil, but it was his expulsion from school at 15 that set him on a path that would change his life forever. With the help of Mr Kibblewhite, his strict headmaster, he could have easily been steered towards a life of factory work, but instead, he found solace in music. He made his first guitar from factory off-cuts and formed a band that would become one of the biggest rock bands of all time, The Who. With their unique sound and energetic live performances, they captured the hearts of millions. This is Roger Daltrey's story, a tale of how he turned his life around and became the frontman of one of the most iconic rock bands in history. From his early days as a teenager to his rise to fame, Daltrey's life has been marked by both triumph and turmoil. In this candid and introspective memoir, he shares his experiences, both on and off stage, offering a unique insight into the world of rock music and the man behind it.
