Pete is no stranger to the craft of literary writing, and the flow of the book flows very natural. The book is funny, dark, and brutally honest.
It is probably my absolute favorite audio book. I've listened to it too many times to count.
Amazing!

Would you consider the audio edition of Who I Am to be better than the print version?
I loved hearing Pete Townshend tell the story of his life. In my opinion, his voice makes this autobiography great. His self-deprecating approach to many of his experiences and praise of many individuals in his life show a side of this musical genius few have ever known, until now.Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
NoAny additional comments?
Being a huge fan of The Who and someone who was able to see them live multiple times in all forms of the band, I was truly looking forward to listening to this book. Unfortunately because of my schedule, I was only able to listen in 20 - 40 minute segments. That became an issue when trying to keep all the names straight.Pete meticulously brings many names to the story; from agents, record people, musicians, sound engineers, girlfriends and acquaintances to family members and influences. If there is any drawback to this book it is that. I believe even someone who is able to listen to the whole book in 2-3 sittings would still get a bit confused keeping all the players straight.
Nevertheless, this a fascinatingly interesting and openly honest story about one of rock n roll's icons.
Who fans will love it...but

What did you like best about Who I Am? What did you like least?
I loved Pete's narration. I also enjoyed hearing details about his life and writing process. I disliked the poor editing. He jumped from episode to episode with no transition. People entered and left his life with no explanation. His drug and alcohol problems came and went just as mysteriously.How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?
I would have liked more detail about every aspect of his life.Have you listened to any of Pete Townshend’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
no.Was Who I Am worth the listening time?
Yes. It was good, as far as it went.Poorly edited, top of the waves memoir.

His performance in reading the book was incredible...again far beyond what I could ever have imagined. He told a fascinating story and held my attention with an incredible performance....he proved to me he could perform on many different stages in many numerous ways. Funny it just occured to me how he shared all of his vast accomplishments and never once was he bragging or boastful...in fact quite the opposite...I admire that as well he certainly could have. A great listen-enjoy.
Wow...what a surprise.
