The Who unveils the first stone on London's Music Walk of Fame in Camden Town, a district renowned for its musical history.
London has a new attraction. The British band The Who unveiled the first stone on the Music Walk of Fame in Camden Town, a district renowned for its musical history, on Tuesday.
“Camden’s roots with the music business go way back ... [it’s got a] really good history of supporting the music business,” said The Who lead singer Roger Daltrey. “So may it long reign, may this avenue of stars grow and grow and grow, because we have ... got the best music industry in the world.” “No one area in the world has the history that Camden does, by starting and nurturing so many scenes, being the rite of passage to so many artists,” said the Walk of Fame founder Lee Bennett, who mentioned acts including Cold Play, The Red Hot Chili Peppers, Pink Floyd, Nirvana, Amy Winehouse and Stevie Wonder that either got their start, or came through the Camden scene.
While the walk's first stone was dedicated to The Who, the plan is to unveil up to 20 more stones per year. Plans also include a virtual reality element, featuring content about Camden’s history available from a Music Walk of Fame app.
