“The idea of dystopian bleakness that could only be redeemed by creative fantasy resonated with me at a deep, personal level…I had always relied on my imagination and creativity to see me through the lowest points, the darkest days of childhood, and later at school, art college and the early days of The Who. I had come to rely on this mechanism to fly me out of danger and depression, like the air-sea rescue of a drowning man.”
