The reluctant rocker
Article Abstract:
Rock and roll was often the only way for people from a working class background to express their creativity, according to rock singer and guitarist Chris Rea. He took up a career in music simply because he loves music, not from any desire to become rich and famous, and regards himself as a musician, rather than a rock star. He has become famous mainly as a result of his unusual singing voice, which has made it impossible for him to simply have an anonymous career in music.

The boy who came back for more
Article Abstract:
Everybody has to take responsibility for their actions eventually, according to singer Marc Almond, who recognizes that he spent many years blaming his parents and his circumstances for the way he felt. He feels that writing his autobiography, 'Tainted Life,' made him finally stop blaming others. He regards being flamboyant as a form of aggression and a way of creating distance between himself and others.
