Cover of Keith Moons

Keith Moon's one and only solo album Two Sides Of The Moon is released in the U.S. Ringo Starr supplies the title after Keith's "Like a Rat Stuffed Up A Pipe" is rejected. The sleeve features a cut-out with Keith looking through the window of a limousine. When the inner sleeve is reversed, a bare bottom is shown mooning. It does receive a positive review in Melody Maker and gets a B from reviewer Robert Christgau but otherwise is panned, especially by Dave Marsh in Rolling Stone. After considerable money spent by MCA Records, two producers and nine months in production, it peaks in the U.S. at #155 on the Billboard charts.
