Summary |
Most know that the legendary English rock band the Who performed concerts at ear-splitting volume, smashed their instruments, and became one of the world's most influential groups. Their period from 1964 to 1976 saw the creation of such classic songs as "My Generation," "Pinball Wizard'," and "Won't Get Fooled Againn," as well as the Tommy, Who's Next, and Quadrophia albums. But how many know the stories of those fans affected by their music and live performances, or the angst and insecurities that drove bandleader Pete Townshend to new heights during this time? This book offers what Pete Townshend himself describes as an "intriguing and extremely insightful take on the Who and on me."-- Adapted from dust jacket |
