The Who on the Who Volume 13: Interviews and Encounters (Musicians in Their Own Words) - Hardcover
Book 12 of 22: Musicians in Their Own Words
Synopsis
The Who were a mass of contradictions. They brought intellect to rock but were the darlings of punks. They were the quintessential studio act yet were also the greatest live attraction in the world. They perfectly meshed on stage and displayed a complete lack of personal chemistry offstage.
Along with great live shows and supreme audio experiences, the Who provided great copy. During the 1960s and ’70s, Pete Townshend, messianic about contemporary popular music and its central importance in the lives of young people, gave sprawling interviews in which he alternately celebrated and deplored what he saw in the “scene.” Several of these interviews have come to be considered classic documents of the age. Roger Daltrey, Keith Moon, and John Entwistle joined in. Even when the Who were non-operational or past their peak, their interviews continued to be compelling: changes in allegiances and social mores left the band members freer to talk about sex, drug-taking, business, and in-fighting.
By collecting interviews with Who members from across fi ve decades, conducted by the greatest rock writers of their generation―Barry Miles, Jonathan Cott, Charles Shaar Murray, John Swenson, and Greil Marcus among them―The Who on The Who provides the full, fractious story of a fascinating band.
