Description

"I sang back-up on Roger's version which became the lead track of his album that he graciously entitled "Under a Raging Moon". On that recording many of the world’s top drummers came in to the studio to solo on the record as a tribute to Keith, I remember the late great Cozy Powell playing a killer solo and then kicking the kit all over the studio. He said 'I think Keith would have liked that'.

Under a Raging Moon was our humble tribute to the most original and charismatic man ever to beat a drum kit. His star will never fade nor will his memory. I was proud to perform the song as a duet with Roger at MSG. We were joined on stage by many of the greats from the music business, even Yoko, Julian and Sean Lennon got up, all wishing to pay a tribute to Keith. It truly was one of the most memorable nights of my life. You should check out Roger's original version, I think it captures the essence of The Who and indeed Roger, whose vocals to me are at their absolute peak."
