BEFORE I GET OLD The Story Of The Who
Dave Marsh NEW! The Who burst upon a startled world in the early sixties and since then have maintained a pre-eminent position in shaping the sound and style of a generation. Best-selling Rolling Stone writer Dave Marsh’s Before I Get Old is the first book to discard the myth and nonsense; it tells the story of not one but six personalities; guitarist Pete Townshend, bassist John Entwistle, drummer Keith Moon and singer Roger Daltrey and their original managers Kit Lambert and Chris Stamp. It charts their origins in the steamy nightlife of London, to their meteoric rise to fame, describing the creation of the rock opera Tommy which turned the Who into superstars. In short, this story contains every inch of fascinating, shocking, hilarious material on the Who and their wild, crazy lives and careers. 608 pages / 85 photos / 235 x 158
