Those who wonder who the man behind the voice that opens each of the CSI shows is, will soon have the opportunity to see him in a guest starring role on the original CSI. The voice is that of <font color=yellow>Roger Daltry</font>, lead singer of the rock band The Who. Three of The Who’s more popular songs serve as the opening themes for the franchise. “Who Are You” is the theme of the original CSI, while “Won’t Get Fooled Again” and “Baba O’Reilly” serve as the opening themes for CSI:Miami and CSI:NY, respectively.

The details of Daltry’s role on CSI are being kept under wraps by the show’s producers, who call it “a surprise role that will keep viewers guessing.”

Not only can Daltry sing, he can act as well. Acting since the 1970’s, his portrayal of the title character in “Tommy,” the film adaptation of The Who’s rock opera, garnered him a Golden Globe nomination. More recently, he completed filming on the History Channel series “Extreme History.” His theater credits include "A Christmas Carol" and "The Wizard of Oz."

The Who, who received their first record deal in 1965, are currently touring to support their new album, “Endless Wire,” which will be released October 31.

Excellent, I'm a fan of The Who so it should be interesting to see if he can act as well as he sings. I can't wait to find out more.

I didn't know they were coming out with a New Album, I can't wait to get it.
 
I used to like his recurring role on Highlander, so it'll be interesting to see him here. :)
 
That's really cool. My dad is a big fan of The Who, so this might just be the first episode my dad will see of CSI. :lol:
 
That sounds great. I'm a big fan of the Who, and I I've seen him in Tommy and Highlander as well as an episode of that 70's show
Can't wait to see the episode
 
I loved his appearences on Highlander. In fact after his character met his demise on the show, the producers still brought back by having him appear in flashbacks (incidently another singer/guest villain Roland Gift also came back in flashbacks after being killed off on the show).
