When I was about sixteen I was in a shop on Shaftesbury avenue called Drum City with a friend who was looking for drum sticks. We were talking to the owner when he suddenly started looking intensely to the front of the shop. He said "wait a minute" and ran towards the door. Standing there looking in was Keith Moon in a top hat and tails. He asked him in and brought him to where we were standing. We were speechless with our mouths open as Keith Moon said to us, "hello lads". The owner asked him to sit at a drum kit and give them a try, which he did. Imagine the scene, you are a sixteen year old kid (who liked The Who) and there you are standing right in front of the craziest drummer of the times and he's performing just for you!! He was amazing of course and when it was over we just floated out of the shop and down the road! It was a moment I have never forgotten! 😊
Wow, how cool is that? Lucky day for y'all
Sweet sweet moment thank you .
Who would forget that??
You must be about my age.

Amazing story!
“The most terrifying thing that ever happened to me was that Keith Moon decided he liked me.”
Joe Walsh
I worked for a Limousine company as a Chauffeur in Los Angeles during the mid to late 70’s. Keith Moon was one of our clients. “Moon the Loon” was an entirely appropriate nickname for him. He lived at that time in Broad Beach located in the Malibu area of Southern California. I drove him a couple of times and he usually did some crazy as stuff. At some point he was asked to leave the country and returned to the UK. During the release of the “Who are you” album, MCA hosted the group at their offices located in Universal City. I drove Keith to the listening party and was given explicit instructions not to let him out of my sight until he was to leave the country 2 1/2 days later. Long story short, I spent 52 hours with Keith at his place in Broad Beach and I am happy to say that he behaved himself and he really seemed to be a different person from when I first drove him. I was deeply saddened that he passed approximately 3 weeks later in the UK. He most definitely lived life to the fullest.
He did not live life, period.
I LOVE these ‘final 24’ pieces SO much. I wish they would do more of them, I have already seen them all 😔
I also love watching these. Afterwards, I just think how lucky I am to have my life.
Me too.
I do as well
our history do good ones too.
Im binging them now in several days at work
I was born in 1952. I was awakened by the Beatles, the Who, Small Faces and The Stones after years of beige musical crap. Once I witnessed Keith Moon my destiny was written. I managed to play drums professionally for many years. I worked with Chuck Berry, Four Tops, Temptations and many others. Thank you KEITH JOHN MOON. I managed to survive the years of lunacy on the road. ❤️
I'm happy that you understood his genius. He wasn't the smartest guy on the block, but noone has played as well as he did.
@@jounitoivanen9468 yeah I’d have to say the same about Townsend. All I ever heard about was how magnificent Jimmy Page and Jimi Hendrix were. I think Pete Townsend is a better guitar player than Page, but not Jimi. No way lol
What a lovely memory. Thank you for sharing your trip down memory lane 🤘
@@MeeMee-gz5vp ur crazy
@@MeeMee-gz5vp I can't agree that Pete Townsend was a better guitarist than Jimmy Page. I think Jeff Beck was though. Could he have ever played "Goodbye pork pie hat" better than Beck? I don't think so. I agree with you about Hendrix though, he was in a class of his own.
“He looked like he was in his 40s or worse” 🤔🤔 I’m in my 40s and was having a good day till I heard that😔 thanks for that😩
😔
Haha! Me too I am 40..but I guess they meant you don't wanna look fifteen years older than you are. I've seen people in their 40s and 50s that look more vibrant and youthful than those in their thirties. Its all how you take care of yourself 😊
@@AbsyntheAndTears while that's generally true; stress is the big one that ages you.
Lmao.....I thought the same, I left my 40's a while back.....so I felt even more..... 😂😂
I’m in 40s... I watch what I eat... I take BP meds...I don’t look anything like that...
I saw The Who in Dec. of 1974. Keith was amazing, as usual and I'm SO thankful I got to see them, from 15 feet away, right at the front of the stage in a 20,000 seat arena in Philly. When Pete started wrecking his guitar, I remember shards of aquamarine-colored fiberglass whizzing past my head at 120 mph. Hahaa. Luckily, I didn't get hit in the head with one because I would've been dead! I'll never forget it. RIP, dear Keith and thank you for everything you gave me!
Excellent. Ringo and Keith are the reason that I started playing drums back in 1965. I still play. Thank You for this posting.
Keith really didn't play like anyone else and I think for any other band but The Who he was wildly unsuited. He needed them and they needed him. He was one of a kind, a nutter and a genius.
First gig I ever went to... Sydney 1968, aged 14. Who, Small Faces, Paul Jones. That rocked :)
Marriot from small faces was a true legend with incredible talent but oh so sad how his life ended it still upsets and angers me
That must have been unbelievable!!
I applaud you!! Steve marriot with that line up. You witnessed gold
I saw the Who twice at the Auditorium Theater in Chicago. Both concerts were great! Moons drumming was intense and wild, but he was totally in control of himself.
Thank you for this memorial program. It has been interesting, informative and entertaining. Nice work researchers, producers and video personnel.
I was in Junior High School when Keith passed away. I was a big fan of The Who and I listened to their audio cassettes in my Sony Walkman.
It was so shocking...
Best rock drummer, ever! RIP Keith Moon.

@@brandonmurphy4657 what a stupid thing to say
Cheam Baths, The Who played a great concert, mid 60's I got 2 drumsticks as Keith chucked them out to us, fantastic concert.
I got to see the Who shortly before he died in NYC. The Who were the most exciting (and loud) band in the world, and they did not disappoint. I was impressed with the entire band. John Entwistle had what amounts to an entire PA for a bass amp. Pete Townsend had several Hiwatt Stacks. It was incredibly loud, and they sounded amazing.
If you TRULY care about an alcoholic who's on the danger list, never invite them to a party
Right?! That's just common sense.
She was barely out of childhood. She wasn’t going to have the sense and wherewithal to make such sound and rational judgement. Also, I’m fairly certain she was a glorified groupie who was only with him for said lifestyle, associations, drugs, money, etc. If he were Keith Moon the fry cook working at the local diner, do y’all think she’d have been with him? 🙄
@@prototek100 I meant common sense on the part of the person inviting the addict to a party.
It was also a different time. Alcoholism was not as openly discussed and awareness wasn't anything like it is now.
@@janetgood6332 Well if anyone who has a drink problem is reading this, it takes me about a month, plus Mirtazapine to get my sleep to normal when i come off it. The insomnia might be an alcoholic's worst enemy, not just the cravings. Hope my advice helps.
Tony Fletcher's book "Dear Boy" is the best rock biography I have read. A brilliantly written story about someone who's life that had it not been witnessed, you'd simply never believe. Such a crazy life... Can't recommend the book enough.
I'm reading it and I really love it. Great book!
right on. it's a great read!
Sounds interesting
I have got the book
Ile buy an read it ...nice one
@PopcornFlix I just realized how many full stories I missed while serving in the US Air Force during the late 70's - 80's. Wow. As anyone in the military can agree, we are so focused on our new 'military community' and our mission that we missed a lot. Thanks for uploading these videos. Decades later, I'm catching up on a lot of details! Very well done short documentaries.
P
This programme wasn't produced in the 70/80's, more like 2010!
I know what you mean- I was in from 2002-2014 and I missed a lot in pop culture. These videos have helped me “catch up” now in 2022! It’s like I knew stuff happened but I was always deployed or training to deploy so it just kind of took a backseat to my “real life”
That was really interesting but sad thank you for sharing ❤️👼🏻
The pain in her eyes when she knew he was gone .... And her retelling the experience. What an awful memory. And for her to be able to recall it and share it. Bless her. I've come across the love of my life blue and lifeless struggling to breathe from an overdose. Than goodness he lived after I gave him narcan. I can't imagine the pain and guilt of having to have that moment on my memory.
She clearly loved him 💜
When she said and they put a blanket over him and carried him out I lost it :(
I never knew that about his friend getting killed. So sad. Something like that will drive you over the edge. I lost a few good friends since high school and went down my own dark path of drugs and booze. Almost died in a car wreck. It took that to slow me down, but I wasn’t done yet. Years later I was taking speed, doing coke, and drinking a half gallon of vodka per day. Then I had a stroke. That was it. The party was over. I had been given so many chances. So rather than blow it, I pulled myself up, raised my son, and fell in love with my now wife. My son is in the Army, and I’m still clean after four years. But I know I could have died in an instant. Life is so short. But I understand how Keith slipped into his addiction. Especially when it’s at every corner you turn.
@Seven Inches of Throbbing Pink Jesus good for you. I’m glad you were able to get clean. That’s something to be very proud of. I know!
Glad you are clean now, and staying clean 😎👍 it takes a strong person to change path 💪💪💪 often we have to stand on the edge of the grave, before we decide to drop our addiction and turn around, and walk back into the life, we've been running away from, fighting our inner demons on the way back...
Hope life is treating you well these days.
@@prototek100 Don't bother w guilt. No addict is going to listen to anyone close to them.
I've hung out w newly sober and said, look, I really dgaf if you use tonight or not. I'm not your mommy and I'm not coming after you.
It works when you've done what they did or worse. And you aren't close enough to care if they use or not. Ime.
Old sponsor types always offer to buy the 1st round at the bar and go, call me once you're sober and ready to talk. Because they know they'll get their a** kicked. Seriously, most likely. If they're hanging out at recovery meetings. Lol.
Man, imagine being that kid that filled in for him for that show
Thought the same thing. Just a boy from Idaho filling in. Like a dream that actually came true.
To cope with the situation, ideally I'd be like 40 or 50% Keith Moons substance level. Maybe 55, but 60 might be a bit much
The kid probably played better than Keith 😊😊
@@petebest22 in his current state, likely.
@@JK-gm6kk 1
His daughter seems quite composed and together , so the mother did the right thing i guess. Sad that they did not get to know each other very well.
I can truly relate.
Keith broke his wife's nose on three separate occasions until she one day had a panic attack at the store at the thought of going home. He only played with his daughter when nothing else was going on. So yes, the right thing, probably a bit late if anything 😣🤐 What do they say about the fine line between genius and madness? Wherever that line was, Keith crossed em both. RIP.
It was no doubt the best thing for his daughter that she had so little contact with Moon.
In my opinion THE WHO IS the greatest band of rock in the history. A legendary drummer, a incredibile guitarist, a great vocalist and....the ubique and real GENIUS of the band on basso guitar
Right so has the stones,Fleetwood mac,and led z every member of them bands us special the who where one of the best yes but the talent in them days was overlooked as only a certain type made it through even Eric Clapton struggled to grip the big time as the strain got to much on there bodies of some ppl that's where who different they brought a new kind of energy.
I really don’t see Keith Moon having reached or lived through the 80’s even without that overdose. His lifestyle was too excessive to carry on.
I kind of agree with you.. same with that cat Brian Jones..can you imagine these guys alive nowadays !.. can you imagine him living through the 80s, 90s etc... Nah
@Seven Inches of Throbbing Pink Jesus im 33 and im scared of getting older. it keeps me up at night. i cant imagine living to 50
Yeah he definitely wasn't destined to live long
@@johnb5057 I’m not much younger than you are and I’m scared to be getting older. It’s just very boring and lonely is that a fair but nice way of putting?
Same can be said for Keith Richards but even he is surprised he's alive xD
Yes love these Last 24 documentaries.
i love that the reenactment of his audition of destroying the drum kit just shows the toppling of one cymbal
The actor they have playing Keith LOL
Why would you cause a lot of damage to a very expensive kit? On the CHEAP side, they're like 3 grand.
That same groupee was in the Morrison documentary. She takes getting around to a whole new level.
You mean passing around?
I paused on his report card. In music class, the teacher says of Moon, " Great ability, but must guard against tendency to show off".
@Kevin Zeichner One of the best quotes I always remember was John Lennons Aunt Mimi (who John lived with) who told him in the early days, “Playing the guitar is all very well, John, but you'll never make a living at it.”
@@Bulletguy07 I think that's still sound advice. 99% of guitarists will never be able to make a living off it. It doesn't mean you shouldn't follow your dreams, but be prepared to never get anywhere. The 1% we see in the media who made it doesn't show the 99% who didn't make it.
@@PH5221 judging by Guitar Center sales over the decades, I'd say more like .01%
@@Bulletguy07 My dad was Queen Bassist John Deacon's tutor at University and when John went to see him to say he was quitting his studies because the band was taking off, my dad said "well if it doesn't work out you can always come back to science". He never saw him again...
His showing off was his signature drumming style and what made him great
Keith was also a founding member of The Hollywood Vampires Drinking Club with Alice Cooper, Ringo, Harry Nilsson and Mickey Dolenz. He died in the same London flat that Cass Elliot died in four years earlier, and owned by Harry Nilsson. Harry was so unnerved by that repeat and his closeness to Keith that he sold the flat - to Ringo. Thanks for the memories, and RIP.
I like the fact that your recreations have actors who have a good resemblance to the real people of the documentary.
One of the best concerts I have ever seen was the WHO. Unfortunately Keith Moon was already gone by then. One thing I liked about the WHO , is that everyone in the band was a front man. The music was louder than anything I have ever heard then or since. But I could hear every note crystal clear.
When I went to the concert, I really didn't know who they were. But I knew every song they played. And I realized the magic of live performing was much more difficult to obtain than studio music. Which is not a fact that everyone understands now, much less in the early 80s. I had seen at least a dozen concerts at this point in time, and I am a musician, so I had high expectations for the groups I loved. I would have to admit that the Who was the first band I fell in love with live. I had been disappointed in most every concert I had been to up until this time.
But it taught me a valuable lesson about the music business. And I was aspiring to be a professional musician, so I needed all of the lessons I could get. Never judge a band by their covers.
Very underrated comment. Album songs are several takes put together like a puzzle then you perfect from there. Playing live is the true test
You're right. Everyone stood out.
as an amateur band, to this day we can't figure out our live sound for large, open spaces. It's like every venue sounds different in spite of trying to repeat the same mixer ctrl combination that seemed to work in another place
The thing that disappoints me about the idea of trying to go see the Who today is that they've completely lost that "everyone is a front man" vibe. It's Roger and Pete doing a tribute act. I didn't get that sense when I saw "big-band Who" in the '90s with Simon Phillips playing drums (whom I'm a big fan of) nor did I when Kenney Jones was with them. I want to see a four-man act, plain and simple, no matter if they're embellished or not. And I'll just leave this here: Geddy Lee ain't doing much...
Predictable ending when you burn the candle at both ends.
The cemeteries are full of people whom the world couldn't survive without.
Huh?
You are right ... This will go over many heads lol
Exactly.
The world just keeps spinning round.
No one is indispensable.
Wow. That's a f'ing great and philosophical.
Remember this so well. I was going into the Army in 78. 79 saw The Who In Nurnberg, Germany in September, 1 year later to the day!
I remember an interview with Townsend who talked about them using some modern recoriding eqpt to go back through some of Moon's tracks isolated,. The new tech allowed them to take what sounded like just chaotic playing and break it down. To their amazement they found that he would sometimes play in two different time signatures at the same time! Whether he knew what he was doign or not, it is still pure genius.
Keith Moon was a genius actor, he fooled everyone into thinking he was a drummer.
Nope wrong even “good” drummers cant replicate what moon was doing
@@royharper2003 you must not have looked at my channel
Keith moon was a genius bro and there almost no people that play like him today listen to amazing journey, young man blues, cut my hair, dogs part 2.
@@royharper2003 Yes it is extremely fast and fluid and it accents the music like a lead instrument it also adds suspense and energy. Instead of something more robotic sounding
It made me sad that he thought his friends wouldn’t like him anymore if he didn’t act out 😞
This is very often a symptom of depression...you have to be the wildest, the craziest, the funniest, the life of the party...the most drink, the most drugs, last man standing, most indestructible that nothing & no one can touch...unfortunately it's all a show & when it's all over & you're by yourself afterwards, that's when everything crashes & those all too human frailties start to invade & you bottom out...I can very much identify with Keith...now just over 6 years sober, I better understand that I don't need to do all that...hopefully I can now live longer & better life because I was able to accomplish what Keith never could...
@@Road_Rash I think Robin Williams suffered the same depression.
Yep, he did...didn't work out well for him either...
Lolol..Keith Moon was a drunken, abusive piece of chav...😄
@@Road_Rash about Robbin Williams.. agreed ..but I was watching something.. Bobcat Golthwait was saying and I think he had some bizarre form of dementia that he was diagnosed with and this either made him want to go before it or he was losing out to it. Idk. Seems like a whole lot of the craziest guys suffer from depression. ✌🏼
Great documentary. Learned lots of things about Moon the Loon that I hadn't known
Thanks! T&M
I love this - thank you! Most comments are brilliant positive and generous, and honestly- I'm loving that just as much. Its a lift, it really is :-)
I remember seeing him in Miami when I was younger. He was indeed mesmerizing behind the drums.
Too bad Keith Moon was a drunken, abusive, piece of chav...typical...😄
Lucky you!
Alice Cooper: "I don't know where Keith got the energy."
Come on Alice. Yes you do.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
One of the things I most like about Keith is that he called himself a drummer before he ever picked up the sticks. He didn't say, "I want to learn to play the drums", he said, "I'm a drummer."
You gotta fake it until you make it.
He asked jazz drummer "Philly" Jo Jones for a tutorial, Jones watched him play then refused to teach him because he didn't want to spoil what he'd seen!
Saw them live twice, outrageous!!!!
Listen to Live at Leeds
The very definition of classic rock
And Keith's at the top of his game
R.I.P. Dear Boy
The best drummer to ever walk this world
Phenomenal drummer who orchestrated his set to perfection.
It is the best drummer of all time! I love this wonderful man! He is magic!
Keith’s wife looks fantastic for someone in her early 60’s

@@roonilwazlib3089 haven't you heard about hyper focus, it's a typical thing with us, with ADHD diagnosis.

@@danpedersen55 what about add?
Those eyebrows had a personality of their own!!! Seriously though,
As I watched him here, I couldn't help wonder what was his true pain??? With human nature, it's usually pain from our childhoods and younger years!!! I always think deeply about people when I look at them, because what I see with my eyes, is only the packaging for all of the secret things that are truly you!!!
What you experience during childhood will follow you to the end of time - which happened just 32 years later in Keith's case. Becoming a successful musician is for many like entering an endless party, and your way out will be strongly influenced by your way in. When you get access to "all the money in the world", it is often accompanied by nobody saying "no" to you - because everybody wants scraps from your table. You can get everything you want whenever you want it. Those who make it out the other end alive are those who don't need everything as badly as those who don't.
Those aren't eyebrows, those are caterpillars.
He accidentally killed his best friend and Driver.
Very well said. Completely agree
He accidentally killed his friend and also was terribly insecure. If he wasn't making people laugh, he felt useless.
Moon's break on "Baba O'Reily" was so great, that you had to keep rewinding it to hear it again!
Main point: what an awesome drummer!!! 🥁

Was a good drummer , but fell for the deadly drugs & drink, shame really 😔
@@littleshell2748 OR MURDER!

Keith Moon was a legend. All these hate comments are sad. Don’t judge someone’s demons.
A man beating up his wife, the mother of his child. That's what is sad, not the comments.
Any man who lifts his hand to a woman is scum.

Greatest drummer ever!
With so much drug abuse and alcohol what to expect??? The groupie was wright it was a surprise he lived as long as he did.
He went after her so she wasn't a groupie.
This is a great follow up video after reading Roger Daltrey's autobiography.
Extraordinary look - especially the eyes - similar to the actor Robert Newton ( Long John Silver ) who died much the same way.
Viv Prince coined the phrase Moon the Loon according to Jimmy Page, Jimmy always said Viv was wilder than Keith yet he retired from music and breeds dogs I believe, Keith as a young musician would watch and take notes of everything Viv Prince did on stage, the first British Wild Rock drummer. Kicked out of New Zealand for life, first British rock musician to be arrested for drugs and firearms, worked with Jimmy Page in 1963 in the band Carter Lewis and The Southerners, the whole band were wilder than any other rock band in 63, 64 65 and pretty much their whole career!!! Viv is very much alive and living in Portugal!!! The first The Pretty Things album is worth checking out for his approach!!! Viv Prince filled in for Keith in 66 when Keith was struck down with whooping cough, there is a brilliant article on that on Viv Prince's Facebook page, well worth reading!!!
Grate drummer I always like to watch him play his drums
A fantastic album... A masterpiece...
I never realized how similar Keith moon is to John Bonham. Both crazy good drummers and alcoholics. Also pretty much died because of it.
Same age too
Yep ! Was thinking that all the while I was watching this
Yeah both killed by excess. 2 years apart and same age. Also Moon died in the sane room where Cass Elliott died x
They were both very good friends as well
Led Zeppelin is my favorite band and I've always loved Bonham. Rush is my #2 group (tied with Pink Floyd and The Allman Brothers lol), but I've often wondered who really was the best drummer. I always favored Moon just because his personality and his partying ability so much reminded me of me. If I had Moon's talent, and thus tons of money, I doubt I would have lived nearly as long.
Greatest Drummer in my time, A Legend/Icon! R.I.P. Keith.
After 10 yrs at the top , moonie should not have to feel he had to perform to be accepted, i used to be a singer in bands and know and saw what drugs/drink do to you, and a real shame he died this way ,too many were lost well before their time/ 2022
The first time I heard "I Can See For Miles" by The Who I was blown away with how powerful drums could be on a song. As time went on I heard Ginger Baker and I knew I had to learn to play drums. As I matured I appreciated Keith's free form energy but most of the time he sounded out of control. I was saddened by his death as well as John Bonham. As a fellow Premier player I do feel a distant connection but I am always tempted to incorporate a little wild playing when I perform.
If I was a rock star I would definitely stay out Harry Nilsson's apartment.
I believe the rock stars that make it out alive and find a balance in their lives, finally do learn that people love them and they don't have to keep proving themselves, as Tony Fletcher alludes to near the end if this video.
Elton John? Saved by sobriety then David furnish
My first mega concert in Pontiac Michigan “THE WHO” good times.
My folks told me about The Who and I have to say they’re absolutely awesome. Keith moon was such a great drummer. But it’s sad he died 44 years ago. If he were still alive now he be married and he be living in a house he be playing the drums .
Rip Keith moon
I can't help but think he favors AL Pacino..In that last T.V. interview he did I thought that was Tony Montana!!
WOW, I HAD THOUGHT THAT I WAS THE ONLY ONE WHO HAD COMPARED HIM TO AL PACINO.
@@rebels42wynn83 me too.
The biography by Tony Fletcher is REALLY good ! One of the best rock-musician biographies . Matt Pinfield loved it ,too (That guy was a big part of my childhood .).

One of rocks greatest drummers
Drink took 3 million in 2019.
Smoking took 5 million.
He was a star, stars shine brightly and fade ever to soon. Rip.
You seem to be confusing him (tinselstar) with an astro interstella star of the type out beyond the earth's atmosphere in space. Tinselstars are posers of more hype than real outter space stars. I wouldn't recommend confusing him with 'The Moon' either. Another astral body which some people think shines where as the so called moon light reaches earth from the Sun. The sun apparently is a star. But a good comment quoting the UK mortality rate for alcohol drinking and smoking 2019.
heminevrin killed him not booze or street drugs
But no one ever told him he should love himself ...Who cares what others think. You GOTTA love yourself...Good or bad...Love yourself.
You mean like The Kardashians ?
They really " love " themselves.
@@2msvalkyrie529 No, not like that at all. Proper care and concern for your own self....as if you were caring for a loved one outside of you.

The final 24 hours...... so they go and tell his life story !!
Convincing someone with untreated ADHD that you love them and they're enough? I think it's underestimated how much this has played into his story

@@emilyveale2805 that's a great term, neurodiverse. I like that.
@@emilyveale2805 You do know this is the 70s, right? You are talking about the issue with a mindset from 2021. Ian Curtis passed away from a series of psychiatric misdiagnosis in 1980, too, it wasn't until the mid 80s/early 90s these issues started to be taken more seriously.
Keith also had a lot of side effects from years of taking amphetamines (it can mess up your head quite a bit) during The Who's mod era and alcohol. It was sadly the perfect storm of terrible events that took Keith's life.
oh miss him..huge fan......
I bought his album, still have it!
I had a friend Paul also a drummer who worshipped Moon, Paul went the same way...nice legacy Mr Moon.
i married a musician(guitar/vox)--anyway, when i was pregnant, i would pray the usual stuff (health happy, etc)--i always ended the prayer the same way,"and God, whatever instrument he plays, plz dont let it be the drums." My son shares his bday with Moon, aug 23, and has been playing drums since he could sit up. he's a young adult now and shares other similarities...
All the good rock comes from guys from England they make the best rock ever
Keith Moon - forever
I partied like a 19 year old until I was forty eight. Then I had a child and realized that it was time to be an adult. 12 years later and I could not be happier. Thanks Emma.
It's a shame that Keith Moon didn't make it to the 80's. He would have been a darling of the early MTV era and the Who may have not broken up (the first time) back then.
Pete later said that he had wanted out of the Who from '79 onwards. The break after '82 did them good. But might have finished Keith off if he had survived after '78. He wasn't destined to live a long life. Good things come in short packages
@@markfernandes9715 That's not what that saying is about at all.
One of the best rock and roll drummers of all time along with Bonzo, Ringo, and Charlie Watts
What about lan Paice and Carl Palmer then?
My mum adored them an used to watch them on a regular basis...
amazing drummer.the greatest.where did he get that energy.?...love him r i p..keith...miss you.
I think he already had a natural energy within him , but I also think the upper drugs along with booze turned him into a hyper Energizer bunny lol it’s a shame he passed so young tho !!! For some reason the best legends always do !!!!!
Er, amphetamines?
The lesson is easy. Abuse alcohol, drugs (prescribed or illegal), do anything to excess and the result is the same. You fall.
I agree. I nearly lost, too.
Easy in theory, hard in practice.
We all loose , even if you live like a monk , death watching every body,😎
@Elastic Fantastic wow bad man hater , go eat the rug ,
Lose. Not loose. Dolt.
I included Keith in a drawing along with other classic rock and roll stars that died tragically while they were young. The drawing is from a photo from 1967 from the session clip in this video 0:09-0:16 & 5:15-5:30, in his white pinstripe suit at his red drum kit. I wish I could include a photo of the drawing with this comment. It was done with colored pencil and gel ink, including glitter gel ink, and turned out fantastic.
That's nice ,cheers.
The best Rock n Roll Drummer in the world🌎..🥁
Rich rock star can have any girl he wants ... pays bouncers £10 to steal someone elses. Nice guy
My thought exactly.
When I was a teen he was my favorite rock star.
I even know a Liverpool sailor who lived with him. He was with him when Moon drove a car into a pool.
(he said it's a good thing they drove into the shallow end cause they were so messed up they couldn't move)
But now as an "old man" I find him obnoxious.
CLASSIC!!!!
Something was wrong with his head. Some of his friends should have talked to him
But I'm sure they did. He did it to himself. He must have been a pain in the ass as a band member. I would play music with a not so crazy people even if their not as good than the crazy people at least theirs peace In the band. The not as good musician you can teach them to be better and they will.
And you know they are only there because you are rich and famous. Who really want's a girl like that?
The first 10mins seemed like an hour to me :D
sad rest in peace thankyou for the music.
"Addiction." Sad in so many ways. RIP Keith.
Great immense energetic terrible drummer between the two greatest in the world! He died for two events, the addiction is having accidentally hit his driver on that cursed day!This destroyed him inwardly by exaggerating his addictions together with the straws that led to his death! Immenso Moon plays forever in heaven
One of the bs
