I saw The Who in the 70's in Seattle. Keith was on fire, as usual and the whole show was fantastic. I caught Roger Daltrey's Tamborine. Now, all these years later, it is a memory that has cemented my love for music. Keith, flailing away on his drum kit and John Entwistle's hands moving so fast on that bass as he stood still like a statue, and Pete, keeping it all going with his amazing guitar licks which all made them one of the best rock and roll bands to ever exist. Ever.

The opening moments can make or break a good interview, and he does a good job at that moment, and then they're off to the races, so to speak.

My family and I went to see a movie that ended up being sold out. So we went to see The Kids Are Alright. I can honestly say that it changed the course of my life. I started buying Who albums and I eventually became a drummer. The who influenced my sound, energy and stage presence. When I discovered Punk Rock, and later Progressive Rock and Fusion I still sounded more like Kieth than anyone else. It was actually after I saw the film that I found out that Kieth had already passed away. He served as both inspiration and a cautionary tale. Much love to you brother. With great sincerity and from the bottom of my heart.

@skulengu6854 Жыл бұрын
@@HesTNTonPMS Actually before I moved away, I sounded almost identical to David Mello of Operation Ivy. So I used my time alone to develop my new own style. Whenever I heard a drummer that used their cymbals particularly well (like Aaron Cometbus, at that time of Crimpshrine) then I would focus on putting a little more nuance and intricacy into my cymbal work. My friend Shaun McFadden of Guano did some amazing things with his kick drum, so I started dancing a lot more with my feet. I had learned linear drum technique from Jeff Campitelli, Joe Satriani’s drummer. So if I played a lot with my feet then I would ease up with my hands. When I got my Gretsch kit from Jeff, it had six toms, so I started playing a lot more fills, just because they were there. Ha ha! When I heard the Nomeansno and the Downsiders their drummer played a lot of floor toms. So I started leaning towards the low end. But I noticed that I never touched my 10 inch tom, so I started using that on occasion to cut through with a little high end, which does actually seem to have a mild resemblance to drummers like Stuart Copeland and, yes, Neil Pert. But I never really studied his playing. I respect him a lot as a musician but I really am not a Rush fan. I did however play a ton of Who songs. I do keep the feel of the dominant parts of Keith’s rhythms, but even then, I try not to sound like any of them. Which isn’t too hard because I think all of them are better drummers than I am.

I agree. And I think what makes him unique in that way-even apart from drummers like Ginger Baker and Michael Shrieve, is that Moon was a ROCK drummer, first and foremost. Baker considered himself to be a Jazz drummer (he was quite explicit about this), and Shrieve was a jack-of-all trades guy who played with lots of different folks, from Pat Travers, to Steve Reich, to Freddie Hubberd, and, of course, Santana. In other words, an all-round studio cat, like a Liberty Devitto or Steve Gadd. Moon, however, poured all of his musical talent into pretty much ONE area: Rock. Specifically, The Who. He knew no other world. So instead of changing the style by doing what Jazz and studio players do: adding on a lot of outside influences, he changed it from within. He reinvented Rock drumming by creating his own vision of it completely from scratch. It really was a triumph of blind, naive intuition. And I really love his style! He may not have been the absolute greatest to ever pick up a pair of sticks, but he was certainly one of the most exciting and unique!

It was selfish and stupid, Keith had a family to take care of who loved him yet the stupid booze was more important than them.

It says something about both The Who and that era of rock and roll creativity / cultural power that both you and I got into The Who when we were elementary school kids, and the band was 15-20 years into it's career and already becoming a "heritage act" (as they say now). For me, it was the "It's Hard" LP in 1982. I wonder if I were 10 years old today if there was any rock or pop band that I would put down my video game controller / smart phone and listen with that kind of intensity and awe. Particularly a band that had been around as long as The Who in the late 1970s/early 1980s. It wasn't "the perfect time to grow up" or anything like that (I wish I'd been old enough to see all the great boomer rock and soul musical acts of the 1960s and 1970s live), but I'm glad I know what it was like living in that world where music (and the radio) was still at the center of popular culture in a way that it just isn't today.

It's not the job of drumming that does a musician in. I really think in most cases it's just mental illness that used to be seen as just crazy kids having fun. Then when a little age sets in, the buzz of booze wears thin, and you fall. Some are just beyond help.

Well, Rock music started in the USA, specifically by African Americans. White kids got hold of the sound, did their thing from Elvis to the Doors to CCR, but once it bounced over to England it must have really awoke a fire in those post WW2 British Boomers who grew up working class, poor, in a regimented society that promoted the stiff upper lip and obedience to the royalty.

@thereisnosanctuary6184 Rock is a 100% an American art form, without a doubt. But the meme that it was started by African-Americans is a myth. Listen to the music of George Beauchamp, the man who invented the electric guitar in the early '30s along with Adolph Rickenbacker. Two white men, one of Swiss origin. They invented and were playing Rock music before Little Richard was even born.

What is interesting to me is that two of my favorite jazz drummers, certainly the best of their era, Tony Williams and Elvin Jones, from Keith's era loved his playing. I saw a doc in which Tony said, "I would see him playing and I would think to myself, 'he is playing with absolute freedom." None of the drummers interviewed came close to this essence of Moon. I think it took someone with great technique and lyricism to hear it.

Eerie that he died exactly a month from this interview - and even more shocking that this interview was almost 44 years ago! Keith seems surprisingly low key here, even if alluding slightly to his love of the bottle. He had natural, manic demons anyway and so fueling them with constant booze and chemicals was like throwing gas on a fire. He really was a tortured soul that seemed to only find joy in playing drums in a famous band!

Townshend, on the other hand was sober as a it gets.... but not for much longer as history recalls. I love this band and sure as fuck am not casting moral judgement upon them..... it's just a shame when the very demons that drive you to greatness also smash you up.
