Keith was an ‘entertainer’. He entertaines me more still to this day than any other entertainer.to hear him play is a very special thing. Many people think he was the best drummer ever. i am one. If u don’t like him than buzz off.🤣😂🤣🤣 great video & thanks for posting!
he's a guy who Really lived! must have played a LOT too as his skills are absolutely 100% beyond top notch!!! I'll keep on trying with my songwriting! argh!
The sheer balls to completely disregard where the 1 is and play those fills in the most outrageous places! Most drummers don't have the balls to even attempt it! Including me
It's a Ludwig Maple double bass drum kit he's playing on the album.I know Glyn Johns took away parts of the kit away to keep Keith from overplaying and concentrate on keeping time.
I don't think you understand drumming. And if so just salty for some reason. There is nothing overrated about Keith Moon's playing. He was perfect at what he did. No one who understands a drummers foremost function in a band can listen to this track, and many other examples, and deny that. The evidence is right there in front of us. He was in fact brilliant.
Let’s see: among others, Tony Williams, Billy Cobham, Carl Palmer, Neal Peart, Phil Collins, Stewart Copeland, Cozy Powell, Roger Taylor, Mike Portnoy and Max Weinberg all greatly disagree with you, and those Legends are just off the top of my head. Both Kenney Jones and Simon Phillips, Legends in their own right, didn’t even bother trying to replicate Keith Moon, saying it’s impossible as what he brought to the table was ultimately irreplaceable. While Keith Moon’s style may not be your cup of tea, you’re wrong when you say he’s “Massively overrated”.
When people praise Moon, it's not really about his ability to function in the typical role of a drummer. Like, no, he was not nearly as refined as guys like Peart or the big time session drummers. He didn't try to be. He attempted to feel and propel the music forward. And he did it in really audacious ways that creatively spoke back to the rest of the group. He wasn't a student of the drums the way that many drummers are. The drums were not his craft. They were his medium. I think that's where a lot of the disconnect stems from.
@@vinceventresca6763A lot of drummers don't really understand Moon. They hear a guy who is just playing a bunch of crude fills in inappropriate places. Moon saw it as having a conversation with the other three members and adding another voice to the piece. He wasn't really concerned with the technical details. That does not jibe with the ethos of a lot of guys who consider the drums their craft, embrace a more nuanced role, and judge performances by how technically sophisticated they are.
My favorite drummer. There is not another drummer is, or ever was, who would have played like that.
Organized chaos. Absolutely unique and brilliant.
The guy was such a unique drummer...he was unlike anyone else... just as The Who were... and I love his yelling throughout the track as well
His playing was total insanity that made complete sense..
It sounds like these drums should never work but they just do - unreal the genius of this man

A lot of people talk about his playing, but noone can demonstrate it.
Beautifully said ! so right :)
His drums sound so freakin good.
The best of the drumming gods!
Thanks for creating this view into ‘Going Mobile’, and a bit of Keith Moon’s performing world.
It sounds like 4 drummers playing at once 😳 Keith really was the only lead drummer in rock!
Complete insanity. Brilliant.
No way dude!! I absolutely love watching your covers, I really think you are the best Keith Moon replica..Thanks for commmenting!
Keith Moon was sadly a force of nature that could not be tamed. "Better to burn out than fade away."
I like the way he plays the bass drum.
Love the crisp tone of Keiths Snare. Nice video man!
Thanks alot!! :)
IT SINGS!
Controlled crazyness.

I'll keep on trying with my songwriting! argh!
Does anyone know where the footage at 1:15 and 1:19 is from?
The sheer balls to completely disregard where the 1 is and play those fills in the most outrageous places! Most drummers don't have the balls to even attempt it! Including me
The man who needed 0 high hat
wow
did he play a double kick drum setup on this record?
It's a Ludwig Maple double bass drum kit he's playing on the album.I know Glyn Johns took away parts of the kit away to keep Keith from overplaying and concentrate on keeping time.
He mainly used his 2 kick drums for playing flams
poor fishy
Massively overrated
