Dmaxdan Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 (edited) Keith Moon of The Who. Keith and John Bonham (mentioned above) are wildly regarded by their peers to be the two greatest rock drummers of all time. Not forgetting John Entwistle who is wildly regarded by his peers as one of the greatest bass guitarists of all time.

StreetCowboy Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 15 hours ago, Denim said: Jimi Hendrix Alexander the Great Joan of Arc Lady Diana Jesus John F Kennedy I think a lot of people die at just the right moment. If Jesus had lived another thirty years after his crucifiction, I am not sure that would have been helpful. JF Kennedy was made most famous by his assassination, and his earlier life would not have gained its historical importance had he dwindled gradually into obscurity, If God had wanted people to die later, or earlier, he would have had them smoke more, or less, or dealt with the sniper's bullet. Imagine if Ronald Reagan had become the martyr that Kennedy did? Everybody dies. None of our timing is perfect. But we do our best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a underated band, also their drummer Mick tucker died of cancer only 52, never had the recognition he deserved, Andy Scott still going strong, they recon it was him who forced Brian out the band in 78, love is like oxygen, one of the best songs ever..
