Roger Daltrey: Thanks a lot Mr Kibblewhite

Más información sobre el libro

"Roger Daltrey is the voice of a generation. This is his story, from his birth at the height of the Blitz, through tempestuous school days. Thanks to Mr Kibblewhite, his draconian headmaster, it could all have ended there. He made his first guitar from factory off-cuts. He formed a band. The band became The Who and, by luck and by sheer bloody-mindedness, Roger Daltrey became the frontman of one of the biggest rock bands on the planet. This is the story of My Generation, of smashed guitars, exploding drums, cars in swimming pools, fights, arrests and redecorated hotel rooms. But it is also the story of how that post-war generation redefined the rules of youth. Out of that, the modern music industry was born--and it wasn't an easy birth. Money, drugs and youthful exuberance were a dangerous mix. It is not just his own hilarious and frank account of more than 50 wild years on the road. It is the definitive story of The Who and of the sweeping revolution that was British rock 'n' roll."--Provided by publisher
