#believeitornot#spookyjams number 2...Famed Drummer of the Who, Keith Moon was in a flat in London's Mayfair district owned by his friend Harry Nilsson. He was borrowing the place after having watched a screening of the Buddy Holly Story, hosted by Paul McCartney. He had some sleeping pills, fell asleep, woke up made a steak had some more sleeping pills and passed away shortly thereafter. The Autopsy revealed he had taken 32 sleeping pills. Keith Moon passed away of an accidental overdose at the age of 32. 4 Years Earlier Cass Eliot was renting the apartment in 1974 and died of a heart attack at age 32...Nilsson was so distressed by both deaths that he listed the apartment, which was purchased by Pete Townshend.
