Keith Moons autograph is very rare, and highly sought after !
Moon's drumming has been praised by critics. Author Nick Talevski described him as "the greatest drummer in rock," adding that "he was to the drums what Jimi Hendrix was to the guitar."
Holly George-Warren, editor and author of The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame: The First 25 Years, said: "With the death of Keith Moon in 1978, rock arguably lost its single greatest drummer."
According to Eder, "Moon, with his manic, lunatic side, and his life of excessive drinking, partying, and other indulgences, probably represented the youthful, zany side of rock & roll,
as well as its self-destructive side, better than anyone else on the planet."
The New Book of Rock Lists ranked Moon No. 1 on its list of "50 Greatest Rock 'n' Roll Drummers,"and he was ranked No. 2 on the 2011 Rolling Stone "Best Drummers of All Time" readers' poll.
In 2016, the same magazine ranked him No. 2 in their list of the 100 Greatest Drummers of All Time, behind John Bonham.
Adam Budofsky, editor of Drummer magazine, said that Moon's performances on Who's Next and Quadrophenia "represent a perfect balance of technique and passion" and
"there's been no drummer who's touched his unique slant on rock and rhythm since."
An awesome piece of Rock Music history that will be a real investment piece for the future !
