Pete Townsend, Keith Moon (front & center), Roger Daltrey, and John Entwistle of The Who.
That’s probably the best description of Keith Moon I’ve heard– He’s like the Jackson Pollock of drums, he wouldn’t paint inside the lines like the rest of the world. Keith Moon has also been called the Jimi Hendrix of the drum kit. His drumming directly reflected his life– loud, wild, original, inspired, and totally unpredictable. Moon was the first Rock & Roll superstar drummer, and the first drummer to be the center of the band, as many considered him to be. He was the constant driving force that fueled The Who to incredible heights. Moon was blessed to be surrounded with the incredible talents of Roger Daltrey, Pete Townshend, and John Entwistle (arguably one of the best Rock bass players ever), but to a lot of us — Keith Moon was The Who.
