After Colin Dawson left the band, Daltrey switched to vocals and Townshend to lead guitar.Įarly on, Daltrey was the band’s leader, earning a reputation for using his fists to exercise control when needed, despite his small stature. At the time, the band included Daltrey on lead guitar, Pete Townshend on rhythm guitar, John Entwistle on bass, Doug Sandom on drums and Colin Dawson on lead vocals. He became a sheet metal worker during the day, while practising and performing nights with the band at weddings, pubs and men’s clubs. Soon after, interested in nothing but rock and roll, he was expelled from school. He made his first guitar from a block of wood and formed a band called, “The Detours.” When his father bought him an Epiphone guitar in 1959, he became the lead guitarist for the band. His parents, Harry and Irene, hoped he would eventually continue on to study at a university, but obeying the rules and learning from his teachers were not in the plans of the self-described “school rebel.” He showed academic promise as a child in the English state school system, ranking at the top of his class on examinations that led to his enrollment at the Acton County Grammar School for boys. Daltry has dated Ann Margaret, Regina Russell and Geraldine Edwards.ĭaltrey was born in the Chiswick area of London, the same working class suburban neighbourhood that produced fellow Who members Pete Townshend and John Entwistle. Daltry also had a son from his relationship with model Elizabeth Aronssen named Mathias, born in 1967. He had a son, Simon, with his first wife Jacqueline Rickman, who he married in 1964. They have four grandchildren, Lily, Lola, Ramona and Scarlett. Daltrey and his second wife, former model Heather Taylor, have two daughters, Rosie and Willow, and a son, Jamie. He has enjoyed a less successful solo music career, and has acted in a large number of film, theatre and television roles.
