Keith Moon (The Who)
“Keith Moon needs no comment, because he revolutionized drumming more than Bonham did, with unique and crazy drumming. He set the stage for all drummers who came after him, so he's not even in the same league as the others.”
“WOW he should be number two. Keith is sick and moves at lightning speed. Only guy who comes close is Mr. Bonham”
“best drumer EVER”
“he should not be number 3 keith moon paved the way for drummers everywhere, he may not be as clean as the rest but his drumming was spectactular”
“The most influential drummer in history!”
“i was 18 when keith moon died...not even fully aware of his greatness until later in my life..i miss him for my own reasons..makes me sad to think he his gone..”
“he IS the best drummer in the world no way is travis barker better than keith moon”
“Whoever said, the only guy that comes close is Jon Bonham, is right. These are the best two drummers ever.”
“Rule-breaker, wild, intuitive, fast, gifted...he opened the doors to the drumming we know today.”
“Yeah that Travis Barker is higher on the list than keith Moon is nonsense.”
“He is a WILD AMAZING drummer. Perfect for the who.”
“he should be no1, theres no such thing as a better drummer tan keith moon”
“why is he not no. 1.”
“.....when I was 18 I said Keith is the best....when I was 30 I still said Keith is the best.....I'm almost 50 and I still say Keith is the best.....when I'm 70 I'll still say Keith is the best....and when I'm gone.....people will still be talking about how Keith is the best.....and opinions will always vary....but for me, Keith is the best. period.”
“keith moon is/was the best. no one has surpassed his talents. i wish he was still around.”
“His personal reputation only echoes his pure drumming talent. Quirky fills, amazing cross-sticking, and infinite energy. The Hendrix of percussion He pre-dated Bonham and though the two had unique styles of playing, Keith laid down a challenge for future generations to aspire to... hands down... no questions asked. When I watch him play I love it so much I want to break his wrists in sheer envy.”
“pure energy, almost as though he was born knowing where to put the sticks without even thinking about it. Watching him drum is watching someone who was purely a natural and who's sole purpose was to beat the skins.”
“Keith Moon is an insane drummer. He opened the doors to rock and roll drumming in a way only comparable by when the legendary Gene Krupa did so for Big Band Music.”
“even though he breaks every law in the book thats what makes him so good because he did so many fills in the middle of songs”
“I completely agree with jerry. I can't pick between moon and bonham. bonham probably got more chances to show what he was capable of, eg. moby dick, but the who were more of a pop act that led zep so moon didn't get many chances =(”
“Keith Moon is the best drummer of all time without a doubt, he surpasses all of the others on this list, the only two that come close are John Bonham and Neil Peart.”
“okay Keith Moon should be number one for many reasons. 1) he duck taped the earphones to his head 2) he always played with a LOT more then one drum set 3) listen to barbara ann. he always wanted to sing, they even had to take out his microphone because he would sing when he wasn't supposed to and 4) watch him drum, its hilarious
and of course, he is a CRAZY DRUMMER. my dad once said that the whole song is a drum solo for him. he is amazing, in both personality and skill. its only a sad he was so destructive”
“moons definitely in top 3”
“He really started people thinking that a drummer can be much more that a metronome.”
“Moon the Loon was the greatest.. he is missed even today.”
“how is avenged sevenfold members in the top 10 for everything, ok thy might be good bt the rev is nowhere near as good as kieth moon”
“Jon Bonham's only hard on drums. Keithy plays every drum at the same time. He' totally Awesome.
WTF? #10?”
“Best by far, should be no1”
“We miss you Keith Moon”
“WHY ISN'T HE IN THE TOP 5?! he could beat anyone in the top 10 except for neil pert, john bonham, and lars ulrich, just listen to "my generation"”
“I agree 100 Keith Moon is
amazing”
“moon the loon was an amazing drummer”
“keith moon is what drumming is all about plus rush sucks”
“Keith Moon drummed from somewhere outside his conscious mind. Just listen to his manic style on "My Generation" and his incredible, polished dynamics on "Dr. Jimmy"--the man was a one-piece orchestra. Nobody could attack the way he did, machine-gun you like a Spitfire, and back off so as not to interfere as much as a single lick with the vox or bass line. Crazy, not from this world, damn I miss his energy!”
“The most entertaining drummer ever. End of.”
“RIP Kieth. All time best drummer, no question.”
“Without question, the very greatest.”
“Best Drummer in the history of Drumming... Nothing more can be said...”
“how is he not in the top ten
all the who songs are impossible on the drums, he is a true drummer and any drummer should idolize him”
