True, true but from a Whostorian's viewpoint it's important to remember that
Kenney was well loved by Who fans in the first couple of years of his
tenure.  He got very good reviews at first with some writers even saying he
was better that Moon.  What really killed Kenney (insert South Park joke
here) was his drumming on Face Dances and the general reaction to that
album.

It's an important thing to remember when praising Zak now.  If The Who put
out a new studio album and the drumming is bland, all this goodwill towards
Zak could evaporate very quickly.
