He is one of the greatest musical talents Britain has ever
produced. But even as the principle songwriter and lead guitarist
for The Who, it would be unjust to define Pete Townshend's life
simply through his achievements with bandmates Daltrey, Moon and
Entwistle. Noting that he has sold over 100 million records over a
fifty-year period goes some way to quantifying his accomplishments,
but numbers only scratch the surface of his contribution to popular
culture. An avid student of his profession, during his career he
has been credited with the creation of the concept album, worked as
a literary editor, developed scripts for television and the stage,
and written songs that have defined a generation. The thinking
man's rock star with a dedication to his craft unlike any other in
the business, he continues to inspire new generations of performers
and writers with a continuing commitment to his art. Now, in one of
the most eagerly awaited autobiographies of recent times, this icon
tells about his incredible life and elaborates on the turbulences
of time spent as one of the world's most respected musicians -
being in one of rock's greatest ever bands, and wanting to give it
all up. Incredibly, as a man who has achieved so much, this truly
unique story of ambition, relentless perfectionism and rock and
roll excess will be regarded as one of his greatest achievements.
