Review of Dear Boy: The Life of Keith Moon

A very long read, but worth every second of it. This tells the story not simply from the eyes of a besotted fan, but it is a pretty straight forward look at the life of Moon The Loon. It'll tear you from side to side, not knowing whether to like him or not, but it is all part of the ride. How did I feel at the end of it all? He was a lovely guy, a flawed lovely guy, a flawed lovely guy who had no idea how to control himself on the rollercoaster of stardom. He made mistakes but he also he paid the ultimate price.
