About this product. Oct 10, Susan rated it it was amazing. There is nothing wrong with that, for he is very much the engine of The Who, but what made the band great are the characters surrounding The Who. Roger Daltry emerges as the one with the truest work ethic. Certainl As a long time Who fan I've been looking forward to Pete Townsend's frank appraisal of life with the Who and beyond. Retrieved 7 January Nov 25, Ruthiella rated it it was ok Shelves: non-fiction. Too much of this memoir seems to be more a perfunctory listing of facts with little exploration of what's being written. His family life suffered greatly as he focused on his art at the expense of his wife and children. The repetition becomes somewhat tiresome. While chronological, Townsend rarely spends much time or discussion on any given subject--rather, events or appraisals of others are dealt with quickly and tersely so the reader comes away having learned only that certain things happened but in many cases, not much else.

There is nothing wrong with that, for he is Without a doubt The Who was a major band in their time and place. Instead, he learned it had been towed and impounded. The book is really about one mans passion and journey Pete and his persistance to evolve himself and The Who which happens to be one of my all time favorite bands into one of rocks all time greatest bands. From childhood trauma to university romance, from school to stage to screen… see him blown up, beaten up, chatted up and dressing up. I recommend the book to any of you who are interested in details about the life of a British Rock Star beginning in the 50s, through the turbulent 60s and Woodstock, all the way to now, but know that he lacks feeling at times when he should most display feeling and compassion toward others - his wife and children for example.

There is also perceptive critical appreciation of other acting geniuses he has worked with -- Peggy Ashcroft, Ian McKellen, Maggie Smith, Judi Dench, and countless others.

And in both cases, young Pete and young Roger pretended to believe the lies so as to spare their parents a confrontation, all the while being heartbroken at the loss of their dogs. Who I Am : A Memoir Writer Naturally I went on to enjoy my own era of music, but when you are young, you fall into some categories, and I was quite deliberate how I would approach listenin As I am getting ready to go see "The Who" on their "Movin' On" tour in a week, there is particular relevance to reading this now.

Seller rating : This seller has earned a 4 of 5 Stars rating from Biblio customers. Related Articles. He believes himself to be indestructible, despite considerable evidence to the contrary. There are three passages in his autobiography which made me laugh out loud in particular. Pete on Bruce: "He worked the stage the way I did: to complete exhaustion. I know that's to be expected; Pete's the tortured artist and Rod's the eternal playboy, but it was more than that. So if you want a clinical diary of the leader of a rock 'n' roll band, "Who I Am" will grudgingly do. There is material in this book, but not enough of it. I'm bleeding quadrophenic. The book describes his ill-fated attempts at making a living by acting, which generally took the form of doing product promos and being an extra in movies and TV.

From a musical family, we get early glimpses of things in his life that find their way into a lot of Who music, most relevantly Tommy.

He's just hilarious and each book gets better and better. It's way too self-indulgent, self-important, and frustrating in the author's inability to make prose readable or make an I really wanted to love this book. It is in the tension between these two worlds that Townshend reveals his humanity and vulnerability, and also the impossible position in which we place those whom we idolise and set apart from the common throng. Despite all that has been written about the generation gap, not many have related it to the preceding generation's trauma of war as Townshend has. Townshend is at peace with his faults and details them quite openly in his admirably candid memoir. Also, what's quite interesting is that Abba was one of the first big, international bands to actually deal with sort of middle-aged problems in their songwriting. Refresh and try again. Starting with history, and classic rock. Instead, I worked harder than all the others—not I, of course, but God's grace that was with me. He is in his 70s now. I mean, can you imagine the Pete referenced above being served such a factoid and not grabbing it with both hands? Oct 08, calum steele rated it really liked it. When Keith dies, Roger calls Pete with the news, expressed in three words: "He's done it. He claims to have accidentally gone to a child porn web page as part of his ongoing "campaign" against child sex abuse, but never mentions any such campaign before this; in fact, I found nothing online about him being involved in the issue at all prior to the charge. Study Bible The Resurrection of Christ … 9 For I am the least of the apostles and am unworthy to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. At one point, he complains to Karen that trying to explain his ideas to the other members of the Who was like "trying to explain atomic energy to a group of cavemen. I enjoyed reading this memoir, at least for a while. Oct 10, Susan rated it it was amazing. Welcome back. Readers will be confronted by a man laying bare who he is, an artist who has asked for nearly sixty years: Who are you? Townshend remarked how calm he remained through the event, but then wrote: I wanted to commiserate with Elton abut a hysterical woman who'd started screaming during the bumpy flight. At some point, before it got to be too late, I came to understand that I wanted a settled family life, not the gypsy life of a touring band. Error rating book.

They make great records. Who I Am : A Memoir Reviews He writes more kindly about John Entwhistle than Roger does too. But unlike someone like Bob Dylan or Patti Smith both books by these artists are more superior than Pete or Neil's are basically unique figures who rock because it is in their instinct to rock. With all his famous friendships, he never actually describes the people he's involved with beyond the obvious. Discover Books. Pete Townshend is a seeker — a type of person I know very well. I was also disturbed how little he mentions his daughters. Used acceptable paperback. As a long-time admirer of Pete Townshend's songwriting and musicianship, both as part of The Who and as a solo artist, I was a bit nervous about reading this book. For I have worked harder than any of the other apostles; yet it was not I but God who was working through me by his grace. All of which is perfectly normal… for a thespian. Or any training. I couldn't finish this. Overall a good book about the man, where he came from, his shitty times, his good times, and how he manag This is an interesting autobiography by one of the most talented musicians of our time.

  • "The Who Sings My Generation" (Album)
    “The Who Sings My Generation”—The Who (1966) Added to the National Registry: 2008 Essay by Cary O’Dell Original album Original label The Who Founded in England in 1964, Roger Daltrey, Pete Townshend, John Entwistle, and Keith Moon are, collectively, better known as The Who. As a group on the pop-rock landscape, it’s been said that The Who occupy a rebel ground somewhere between the Beatles and the Rolling Stones, while, at the same time, proving to be innovative, iconoclastic and progressive all on their own. We can thank them for various now- standard rock affectations: the heightened level of decadence in rock (smashed guitars and exploding drum kits, among other now almost clichéd antics); making greater use of synthesizers in popular music; taking American R&B into a decidedly punk direction; and even formulating the idea of the once oxymoronic sounding “rock opera.” Almost all these elements are evident on The Who’s debut album, 1966’s “The Who Sings My Generation.” Though the band—back when they were known as The High Numbers—had a minor English hit in 1964 with the singles “I’m the Face”/”Zoot Suit,” it wouldn’t be until ’66 and the release of “My Generation” that the world got a true what’s what from The Who. “Generation,” steam- powered by its title tune and timeless lyric of “I hope I die before I get old,” “Generation” is a song cycle worthy of its inclusive name. Twelve tracks make up the album: “I Don’t Mind,” “The Good’s Gone,” “La-La-La Lies,” “Much Too Much,” “My Generation,” “The Kids Are Alright,” “Please, Please, Please,” “It’s Not True,” “The Ox,” “A Legal Matter” and “Instant Party.” Allmusic.com summarizes the album appropriately: An explosive debut, and the hardest mod pop recorded by anyone.

    1 Eralingua: Jurnal Pendidikan Bahasa Asing dan Sastra Vol.3, No.1, Maret 2019 Symbol Analysis in the who Selected Song Lyrics Yan Ardian Subhan1 and Calvin Jonathan Funck2 English Department, Universitas Pamulang, Tangerang Selatan, Banten1,2 E-mail: [email protected] E-ISSN : 2579-4574 P-ISSN : 2549-7359 Abstract. This study focuses on analysing symbols in five song lyrics of The Who. This study aims at finding and analysing the meanings of symbols and the relationship between both points. The design of this study is descriptive qualitative. The data were analysed by using the theory of symbol by Shaw and Frye. The result of this study showed that the symbols in the five song lyrics of The Who are a reflection of the song writer’s feeling and experience of life. It is clear that his life biography of a song writer influences the song lyric he wrote.
