Autographs of John Otway
John Otway (born 2 October 1952) is an English guitarist and singer-songwriter.
Otway was born in Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire. From the age of nine, he wanted to be a pop star.
Although his first single, "Gypsy"/"Misty Mountain" was released in 1972, Otway gained wider recognition riding the wave of punk rock and his performance on The Old Grey Whistle Test. His sixth single, "Really Free", reached number 27 in the UK singles chart in 1977. It would be his greatest success for some time. The song earned him a five-album deal with Polydor Records, who viewed him as a punk rather than merely an eccentric. His first album, recorded with Wild Willy Barrett, was produced by Pete Townshend but sold only fitfully. The follow-up singles fared no better despite attempts at promotion, including an offer for Otway to come to a buyer's house and perform the 1979 single, "Frightened and Scared", if their copy was one of only three copies from which the vocal had been omitted. Otway's and Barrett's only other UK chart success came in July 1980 with "DK 50/80", at No. 45.
