Keith Moon Dies Before He Gets Old
Simon Frith, The Village Voice, 18 September 1978
I WAS TYPING the last paragraph of my Who review when a news flash on the radio announced that Keith Moon was dead: "We'll bring you further details as soon as we have them." No need. Whatever the coroner decides, Keith Moon has died from 15 years of being "the wild man of pop."
