- Some great clips!
John Peel, the long time host of the BBC radio programme Top Gear was set to leave for his summer break in 1973. As his replacement, producer John Walters invited Keith Moon to take over, scripting skits for Keith to act out between songs and recording them on weekday mornings when Keith was most likely to be sober enough to work.

Recorded early summer 1973 at the BBC. Приколы
I was on holliday driving all over GB that August and had a little radio and was lucky enough to catch Keith on for an hour every wed. evening ( I think). What a great surprise and a good memory. I still have that little Phillips radio in a drawer.
There were 4 x 15 mins Tuesday night episodes in the summer of 1973. I was at school at the time and had recorded them onto home audio cassettes direct from the radio. Unfortunately I had my tape recorder and all the cassettes stolen in 1975, so they were lost forever. But I have only just discovered that they are on RUclips now in full if you search for: "A TOUCH OF THE MOON".
Just listening and they have cut out the songs, so probably was an hour with the songs added, like you said.
@@daddykornflakes That's what I remember too ! It was the summer of 1973 so it's a long time ago.
"Daltry can help me with the hard bits." CLASSIC!!!

I have a bootleg CD from Yellow Dog that has these between songs. Life with the Moons, upgrades from the boxed set.

Brilliant - it's not on the BBC website anymore - thanks for this x

The guitar on poetry cornered is laguna sunrise by black sabbath on the Vol 4 album.
So live with me & be my "voe?"
Julie Witt “vole”. (It’s a kind of mole, only smaller.)
Had he lived it would have been cool to see him in Yellow Beard.
Absolutely!
@@einysjame Hi, I've seen more clips of The Who than I can count, but just the other day I saw for the very first time a clip of them from 1965 live playing My Generation that was just stunning. If you want to see why Keith was a star just watch this clip, all eyes are on him and his performance is off the charts, to say he was a showman is a mild understatement. Check this out and see what you think. ruclips.net/video/lJW_2wLt704/видео.html
@@robertkees6048 Oh yeah! I remember seeing that video a few years ago maybe and yes Keith is absolutely on fire as he usually was of course!
I remember the one where he was a boxing commentator... c'mon c'mon.., BBC... out the way - lol
great stuff! thanks for posting! is there anymore of these clips?
I remember these and used to record the skits between the songs on my tape recorder during my schooldays. It's been 40 years, but in my recollection there went out weekly on Tuesdays nights. If I didn't like the song I would stop recording and turn on again after it. Unfortunately my tapes got stolen a few years later so I lost everything. Do you have anymore info on them, because from what you've said it would have appeared they went out daily, not weekly.
ON YOUR BIKE, YOU BALD PIECE OF SHIT.
There was one where he said, "let me put my kit away" and the sound follows of drums going down the stairs.
Is that clip out there?
Still funny even though they are edited
Where's it gone?
Isn't that black sabbath in the background?
Mamatry walls?
Not "that" Top Gear then ;¬)
