No, I never said my opinion is credible because I'm a drummer.  I said felt
Moon's performance was better on WN on the strength of his playing on
"Bargain", "Goin' Mobile", "My Wife" and "WGFA" - all songs that I couldn't
even begin to play like he did. I offered this as one reason for my
preferring WN.  His playing on QUAD was to me a bit more straight ahead, not
as much like being a "lead drummer."  Nothing wrong with this though; great
drummers know when to "play for the song." 

I stand by my opinion but I do respect yours as well.
