    Must have been tough especially back then to keep from getting too heavily involved in drugs. Even aside from him being a great singer, I admire Roger for that as well. I also greatly admire Roger for his coming to my home town a few years back to talk with people about the 1979 concert tragedy. He didn't have to do that. For me, that really showed Roger's character as a man.

    Well. The band was very lucky to have Roger- it kept some of them living a little longer. Drugs did eventually claim moon and entwhistle, but I’ll bet his fight for no drugs on stage helped them all live longer, too bad they couldn’t be like him and get rid of them entirely!

      In 2011, I saw him perform Tommy at the Nokia Theater, which is a wonderfully intimate venue. (Now it's the Microsoft Theater.) He was pretty amazing, having completely recovered from the throat problems that had plagued him for years. The band (which included Simon Townshend) had a real feel for the material, they really did it justice. I've seen The Who three times (starting in 1982) but this was a very special show.

      His book was definitely the best of all The Who (auto)biographies. I'm not sure he was "the engine" of the band, but he most certainly was the one who held them together through a lot of unpleasantness. I always loved Roger but the book really brought my respect for him to a new level.

Both of them made utterly uninformed dangerous statements about the disaster half the country (and 28 countries in the Europe) was unaware of / not taking seriously/ Cambridge analitica was already going to foist on them anyhow... not to mention double dumbing down with their injection insanity - just so they get back to playing the same 40 year old set. And hard when you have real affection for the catalog. Can only wonder if they've seen the light since...

    • @socallars3748
      @socallars3748 6 месяцев назад +3

      Pete Townshend is my musical hero, his songs and playing speak to me in a way that nobody else's do. However, his interviews make me cringe when he needlessly bashes people (including himself!) for no legitimate or purposeful reason. He's clearly a conflicted and tormented guy, which is surely a big part of why his music is so great...he funnels those feelings into his songs. But he'd be wise to speak less and let his music do the talking.

  • @dailyflash
    @dailyflash 21 день назад

    Daltrey always took much better care of his throat than Robert Plant did. Plant partied a lot, smoked cigarettes, strained his vocal chords, and got colds on tour. Not often, but there are enough live Zeppelin recordings where his voice is significantly shot. I've never heard a who concert where Daltrey sounded compromised.
    He went to his hotel room to get enough sleep between shows, but still had to pay for a quarter of the damage the other three did.

  • @billyz5088

    amphetamines & cocaine - some bands would speed a track up a bit - and some tracks may have even sounded better a bit faster - or they wanted to get through it faster to fit more songs in the setlist - but if the drugs caused too much up-tempo - like Roger talks about here - that's where the term "coked-up mess" came from - and plenty of bands were guilty of that - esp. by the 80's ..
