The band that changed my life was The Who. It's hard to pick just one album, but if I had to pick the one that really showed me how things could be done, it's 'The Who Sell Out.' They really went to town on that, doing something that no one had ever done before.
I'm still the best Keith Moon-style drummer in the world.
Keith Moon was amazing as a drummer, but he was also a nut, and it reflected in his drumming. And the great thing about Who records is that you can almost get hold of the vinyl and feel his heart.
The Who, England's most self-conscious band, have released 'Quadrophenia,' which in turn freezes in time our image of the mid-Sixties Mod sensibility.
The Who on record were dynamic. Roger Daltrey's delivery allowed vulnerability without weakness; doubt and confusion, but no plea for sympathy.
When I joined Small Faces, we occasionally would bump into The Who. And Keith Moon and I became firm pals.
L.A. Woman is amazing, but when I was growing up I was into the Who.
I am not a technical drummer at all. I'm more from the Keith Moon/Lars Ulrich school of, 'Hey, look at me!' I just get up there and bash.
I'm the Best Keith Moon-type drummer in the world.
C'mon, I mean who didn't listen to 'The Who' in the 60s?
I felt that The Who had ended because we'd lost touch with our original Shepherd's Bush audience.
We lived the life with Keith Moon. It was all Spinal Tap magnified a thousand times.
The most terrifying thing that ever happened to me was that Keith Moon decided he liked me.
I think if Keith Moon was here today and you asked him to recall most of his early life or most of his life, he wouldn't be able to recall it.
Keith Moon is not interested in jazz and won't ever be a jazz drummer because he's more interested in looking good and being screamed at.
Keith Moon was the funniest guy around. The stuff he did was insane. He was like somebody straight out of the movies.
Keith Moon, God rest his soul, once drove his car through the glass doors of a hotel, driving all the way up to the reception desk, got out and asked for the key to his room.
Terry said he had this new kid and his wife didn't want to live in England. He wanted to tour. He hated being in the studio. Terry liked seeing various bars the world over and getting smashed out of his brain. He was a sort of latent Keith Moon.
The Who is one of my favorite bands of all time. 'The Who Sell Out' is one of the greatest art-project albums of all time.
I always tell people that to be the funny person in a Steve Martin movie is like getting a call that Keith Moon wants you to play drums on his record. He should be playing drums on his record.
I got to meet Keith Moon!
I would love to play the drums with 'The Who.'
