Let's put it this way... I saw Mitch Mitchel with Randy Hensen in 1983 and he 
was an awesome drummer... he had lost none of his 60's fire. None.

Yes that would have worked. "Little Miss Strange" is a good song to listen to
to get an idea of what he would have sounded like with the Who; it sounds like
more of a Who song than an Experience song.

  Absolutely.  Right on.  Mitch Mitchell is my favorite drummer besides Keith,
and his style was very similar to Keith's.  Of course I don't know what Mitch
was doing or what kind of shape he was in at the time.  But at Monterey, where
the Who were still getting it together, to an extent, and the Jimi Hendrix
Experience was basically at it's peak, I think Mitch actually took Keith to 
school.  Of course, two years later, even Mitch couldn't come close...
