- This interview from early 1975 of incomparable Who frontman Roger Daltrey during the filming of Listzomania, a Ken Russell film that garnered mixed reviews. Daltrey had triumphed the year before with a starring role in the film of Who musical Tommy. At the time when other Who members (having conquered the world of rock with Quadraphenia) were doing individual projects, Daltrey was tapped by Ken Russell for a starring role, around the same time Daltrey's first solo album with the single Giving It All Away was climbing the charts. Wonderful man, probably the best frontman and vocalist in rock, Roger is humble chatty and never far from his East End roots.

Adorable man. Have always loved him!
Excellent post. It's interesting how some of the most intense rock singers are quiet and reserved when interviewed. Like if this man suddenly began to sing during this interview, you would hear the roaring lion that is the 1975 Roger, almost like a different person. If you listen to different interviews, he'll begin to sing something and suddenly it's like POW with ten exclamation points. What a master, what a lead singer, what a band.
Happy 80th birthday Roger Daltrey!!!
He is actually wonderful. I love listening to him, he's so natural and grounded. Listening to him here in the 70s is the same as listening to him speak now. A treasure with a brilliant head on his shoulders.
Thanks for this, wonderful stuff. X
A man of angelic beauty
Roger was always the voice of reason for the band in keeping everyone together!
He sure is a pretty man. Just very, very pretty. Love him.
So nice and cute. Great person, love you Rog
Lovely man!
What top bloke/rock god!!
Stop complaining about Roger. He does a good job.
He’s a sweetheart! I’ve been lucky enough to meet him twice- the second time after a screening of “Tommy” in 2015. Such a lovely guy. Obviously so talented, too.
Quite rare some Who footage turns up I've not seen! Thanks for this.
I have Heard Roger Complain about the Band Equipment costs for the WHO, when the band destroyed expensive musical instruments for the Heck of it. Back in the 70s and before, there were no knock-offs and copies to be had. If you had a Gibson or a Strat, it was Big Money. I believe a Les Paul with a Case in 1960, was 150.00$ from a local music shop. In todays money, at that time in 1960, a les Paul would cost you $1500.00 in todays money. Imagine the Rogers Drum Equipment, the Gibson Giutars, the Marshall Amps that the band went thru. Roger gave an interview where he sounded like he was the bands accountant and just baffled him why his bandmates would destroy very very expensive equipment just for Effect. I wish they were all still alive and playing in 2023. The more I see of Keith Moon, the more Endearing he is , as a Free Soul. My Respects, Roger. RH DSD
I have always wanted long curly hair since seeing the movie in 1975. Now I have very long dreadlocks.
Yes, yes, my man, Dread,
I have a half moon fringe and could never ever suit a skin head so I use to get pearms, and still do, today I seen Bernie Slaven, some guy ya know, ha ha, you take care my very new bess mate ha ha
Interesting how RD isn't a prick nor smug until after Keith dies; no exception here. Loving the band an obvious positive factor as well. Good clip!
What do you mean "until after he died"? That's like saying he became a bad person after Moons death
@@pod831 He was a great vocalist + frontman but after 1978 got a little smug, plus that new hairstyle was atrocious! Watch interviews done around 1979 vs. earlier to see the difference in attitude.
@@threeofakindbygeneraldean3007 Seems like he went from being more soft spoken and shy to more comfortable and relaxed in the public. '60s Roger is even more shy than '70s Roger. I think Roger got more comfortable with each passing decade and has gotten more chill. He has said as much himself.
@@JohnSydney225 Watch rd around 1979, especially when big-mouth (what a talented spokesman!) townshend ain't present. Seems to be angry/smug though probably not on purpose. By 1989 he was back to acting like before. Years later: back to post-moon attitude. Still, in prime years better than most rock singers on record and especially live!
Where is this interview from? Who's the interviewer? :)
