Description

Biography: Born in 1944 in the same area of west London as future band mates Pete Townshend and John Entwistle. The three formed a band called The Detours which gradually mutated into The Who, with Keith Moon on drums. The band are often seen as the forerunners of punk; their raw, high-energy music vocalising the anger and dislocation of millions of frustrated teens. But ultimately they were far too musically accomplished for the later punk scene.
In 1975, Daltrey starred in the film version of The Who’s rock opera Tommy and began a small parallel career as a television and film actor. He released his first solo album, Daltrey in 1973 and has continued to release solo work with varying success ever since. He and Townshend still occasionally tour as The Who, and Daltrey remains one of the greatest front men for a live band ever
