Another illustration from the Drop-d site. Keith Moon, Moon the Loon. I spent the weekend watching The Who film The Kids Are Alright and took the drawings from several stills of a The Who performing “My Generation” sometime in the mid seventies. Now, a lot of The Who’s music I can take or leave, but trying to capture the beautiful, frenetic, kinetic, gleeful energy that Keith Moon brought to playing drums isn’t an easy challenge. What a performer. Three drawings in ink, colourised and overlaid in photoshop.

  2. Speaking of The Who… A campaign has just started to get The Who a long-overdue Number 1 single in the UK charts – please sign up and/or help publicise it.
