Rock : Keith Moon? or is this thread only for super drum nerds and he doesn't hold up?


[/ QUOTE ]

Doesn't hold up. Not exactly a stickler for proper technique. Not particularly innovative.

Moons drumming is freaking awesome. Nobody else ever came close to sounding like him. Totally unique, and absolutely made songs like I Can See for Miles, I Can't Explain, Anyway, Anyhow, Anywhere. Who gives a crap about technique when your drummer basically destroys his kit just by playing it?

[/ QUOTE ]

Because someone like Neil Peart can do those Moon songs without destroying his kit and with good technique. Moon's a good drummer. But he's not the best ever.

Never came close to saying he was. I really like him and he was batshit crazy in an endearing way.
