Crucial to the creation of "Rocks In The Head", was Daltrey's meeting with guitarist and songwriter Gerard McMahon.
As well as being credited on the album with musical direction and production, McMahon, also features as a primary backup musician and writer or co-writer of ten of the eleven tracks. Daltrey himself is co-credited on seven tracks, a new benchmark compared to his previous solo ventures.
"Rocks In The Head" clearly updated Roger Daltrey as a solo performer for the 90s with the construction of hard-edged tracks based on harsh electric or acoustic guitar textures suggesting everyone from The Who to the Police. The result is an album of richly executed material that showcases Daltrey's reputation as one, if not the, premier hard rock vocalist.
