Hard Life/ Giving it all Away easily Roger's finest solo moments along with McVicar soundtrack. Great live studio cut. One wonders if Who had disbanded early on how Roger would have progressed. The subtleties & conviction in his voice lent themselves well to the singer/ songwriter market of the 70's.
@davanmani5564 жыл бұрын
But Roger didn’t have the confidence to write his own songs. He needed Pete.
@bellerophonchallen88614 жыл бұрын
@@davanmani556 Yes, that's the problem. He says in his autobiography he had to keep touring. Townsend wanted to stop and concentrate on various projects, but Daltrey's income came from performing. Is it about confidence or ability? Not everyone can write and score a song, Townsend is a master. Noddy Holder says his income from Slade is still songwriting credits and Dave Hill and Don Powell still tour as Slade because they'd have no other income. Merry Xmas Everybody makes Noddy and Jim £60, 000 a year royalties even today.
