Crucial to the creation of this album was Daltrey's meeting with guitarist/songwriter Gerard McMahon, since Rocks In The Head, which credits "Musical Direction and Production" to McMahon, also features him as primary backup musician and writer or co-writer of ten out of the 11 tracks. Daltrey himself is co-credited on seven, a new high for him, but it's hard not to feel that he is acting primarily as McMahon's mouthpiece. McMahon updates Daltrey for the '90s, constructing hard-edged tracks based on harsh electric or acoustic guitar textures, suggesting everyone from The Who to The Police. The result is an album that does nothing to diminish Daltrey's reputation. ~ William Ruhlmann

Personnel: Roger Daltrey (vocals, guitar, harmonica); Pim Jones (acoustic guitar, slide guitar); David Katz, Emily Burridge, Jay Leonhart, Ricky Byrd, Robert Lamm, Tommy Price, Billy Nichols, Gerard McMahon, Vinnie Zummo, John VanEps, Shaun Solomon, Jody Linscott, Jamie Daltrey, Pat Sommers, Don Henze.

Uncut (p.129) - 3 stars out of 5 - "[This] album reveals an eagle-eyed attention to performance and detail across songs that encompass electric and acoustic rock, ballads and blues served up with flavours of soul and country, funk and flamenco."

5 stars Roger Daltrey s' Best?
Well some may not agree that this is Roger Daltrey s' best album ever, near "UNDER A RAGIN MOON", also a good solid record. "Rocks in the Head" has a solid production, excelent songs and superb singin from Roger Daltrey. He also, is credited with some compositions proving that he can also write good solid songs. The best one is the closer "Unforgetable Opera" a song that owes to the Who. It is a Who song all over and should be included on their live repertorie as some others on this brilliant collection. "Willow" is a beautiful ballad dedicated to one of Daltrey s'daughters. The first song "Until my time is up" is also solid and strong. All the album maintains the same level.

VH1 Presents The Corrs Live In Dublin CD  (2002)

Rocks In The Head album
CD $6.39  4.3 stars Top 500 Audio Samples
This audio document of The Corrs' Dublin homecoming concert has pretty much everything fans of Irish pop could wish for, including an appearance from Bono in his earthly incarnation, fresh from an audience with President George W. Bush. It's to the band's credit that the charismatic singer fails to steal the show, despite creditable efforts via an anthemized version of Ryan Adams' beautifully downtempo "When the Stars Go Blue," and a great, leering rendition of Lee Hazlewood and Nancy Sinatra's "Summer Wine." Somewhat more mysteriously, Rolling Stone Ron Wood also turns up on what sounds dangerously ...

The concert presented an overview of their entire body of work, with music from most of their albums. They're joined by a series ...

Rocks In The Head music CDs
CD $11.99  3.8 stars Top 500 Audio Samples Definitive Album
A sprawling two-disc set, the Drive-By Truckers' SOUTHERN ROCK OPERA is a cracked masterpiece that's enjoyable on several different levels. Hipsters might enjoy the giggly premise of a two-disc set devoted to a slightly altered retelling of the rise and fall of 1970s Southern rock icons Lynyrd Skynyrd. Progressive rock fans lamenting the modern era's relative lack of story-driven albums divided into "Act I" and "Act II" will latch onto SOUTHERN ROCK OPERA with the same passion with which ...

Roger Daltrey Parting Should Be Painless CD  (1984)

Rocks In The Head songs
CD $9.09  3.3 stars
Daltrey was much more successful, commercially as well as artistically, when his solo career was a side project. Parting Should Be Painless, the first album Daltrey made after The Who's breakup in 1982, contains some interesting tracks, including Bryan Ferry's "Going Strong," which gives you an idea what Roxy Music would sound like if Daltrey was its lead singer, and "Somebody Told Me," written by Dave Stewart and Annie Lennox of the Eurythmics. But for the most part, it consists of mediocre material indifferently sung. ~ William Ruhlmann In a certain sense, Roger Daltrey's solo career should be divided into two parts. The first part, running from 1973 to 1980 and including the albums Daltrey, Ride A Rock Horse, One Of The Boys, and McVicar, consists of work Daltrey did in between making records and touring with The Who. The second part, from 1984 on, is Daltrey's post-Who career, during which you might expect ...
