Wow everyone is being so diplomatic and reasonable (most probably with a arm in a twisted knot behind them). This is from the inside from someone who worked in the studio and was complementary to most famous artist who recorded there but one was according to him was surprisingly vile in normal every day dealings (not connected to music) was Chrissie Hynde of the Pretenders.

I like them better if they are pretty monstrous as well as talented.
They serve 2 wonderful purposes.
Great music and they piss people off.
But of course screwing with people who are just trying to do a job is shit.

Wildness is great. Keith Moon, Keith Richards, Ozzy, Lemmy etc etc..

Yeah, the video in the OP seems a bit sketchy.

A lot of the reasons it’s giving for artists being judged as a “bad person”, are mainly whether or not they were faithful to their wives. I could debate the morality of such an action, but there’s more to “bad people” than just their level of commitment to a relationship.
