Roger Daltrey

Roger Daltrey is, to me, the sound of rock front-man swagger made flesh, that famous lasso of the microphone cord and a voice that could fill a stadium. Co-founding the Who and earning a place among the so-called gods of rock is reason enough for respect, and the CBE and Kennedy Center Honors confirm it. But what genuinely moves me is the decades he has poured into charity work for teenagers with cancer. Still touring well past eighty, he embodies a stubborn, working-class commitment that the trophies only hint at. He has lived rock and roll without ever hollowing it out.
