(antiMUSIC) (Press release) Castle Music is delighted to announce the May 23rd, 2005 album release of Roger Daltrey "Rocks In The Head". Daltrey's seventh solo album, was first released in North America on Atlantic Records in 1992, and is considered to be a collectors item in Europe because it was never released domestically in Europe until now. This re-mastered edition of this album from The Who's hard-rockin' frontman follows Daltrey' s recent anthology, Moonlighting released in January 2005.

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.
