Keith Moon Radio Sketches


From BBC Radio 1’s Top Gear in 1973,

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.
