AN author is looking for people who may have seen The Who play in York in the 1960s or early 1970s.

Richard Houghton is trying to trace fans that may have witnessed either of their performances at The University of York in 1968 and 1970 to help him write a people’s history of the group.

Mr Houghton, who has already written books about The Beatles and the Rolling Stones, said: “The Who have been performing for over 50 years and lots of books have been written about them.

York Press:

"But I want to tell their story in the words of the people who saw The Who when they were starting out and use those teenage memories to help me capture a little piece of music history.”
