So we know about the wild side of Keith Moon, so why hasn’t anyone told about the good, wonderful artist he was, never mind his crazy behaviour, alcoholic state. I believe he had plenty of good in him.
Tony Fletcher’s monumental book Moon (Dear Boy in the U.K.) covers the good side of Keith, including his brilliant scheme to get drum lessons with no money, his time with The Beachcombers, his love for Kim, and his befriending younger fans.
I shall be indeed talking about the good times & the good he had in him which was by the truck load I can assure you.
I love you Moonie. Forever rest in peace The Who is my idol
