While Moon generally said he was only interested in working with the Who,{{sfn|Fletcher|1998|p=238}} he participated in outside musical projects. In 1966, he worked with [[Yardbirds]] guitarist [[Jeff Beck]], pianist [[Nicky Hopkins]] and future Led Zeppelin members [[Jimmy Page]] and [[John Paul Jones (musician)|John Paul Jones]] on the instrumental "[[Beck's Bolero]]", which was the B-side to "[[Hi Ho Silver Lining]]" and appeared on the album ''[[Truth (Jeff Beck album)|Truth]]''. Moon also played [[timpani]] on another track, a cover of [[Jerome Kern]]'s "[[Ol' Man River]]". He was credited on the album as "You Know Who".<ref>{{cite journal |url=http://archive.classicrockmagazine.com/view/july-2005/44/in-the-late-60s-jeff-beck-put-hi-ho-silver-lining- |title=Truth (review) |journal=Classic Rock Magazine |page=44 |date=July 2005 |access-date=30 August 2013 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131029205005/http://archive.classicrockmagazine.com/view/july-2005/44/in-the-late-60s-jeff-beck-put-hi-ho-silver-lining- |archive-date=29 October 2013 }}</ref>

Moon may have inspired the name for Led Zeppelin when he supposedly briefly considered leaving the Who in 1966 and spoke with Entwistle and Page about forming a [[Supergroup (music)|supergroup]]; Moon (or Entwistle) remarked that a particular suggestion had gone down like a "lead [[zeppelin]]" (a play on "lead balloon"). Although this supergroup was never formed, Page remembered the phrase and later adapted it as the name of his new band.{{sfn|Fletcher|1998|p=225}}<!--Since it's only speculation that Moon used the phrase (it could just as easily have been Entwistle), I don't think this paragraph belongs in this article.-->

[[The Beatles]] became friends with Moon, and this led to occasional collaborations. In 1967, he contributed backing vocals to "[[All You Need Is Love]]".<ref>{{cite book |first=Ian |last=MacDonald |title=Revolution in the Head: The Beatles Records and the Sixties |page=261 |publisher=Random House |year=2008 |isbn=978-0-09-952679-7}}</ref> On 15 December 1969, Moon joined [[John Lennon]]'s [[Plastic Ono Band]] for a live performance at the [[Lyceum Theatre, London|Lyceum Theatre]] in London for a [[UNICEF]] charity concert. In 1972, the performance was released as a companion disc to Lennon and Ono's album ''[[Some Time in New York City]]''.<ref>{{cite book |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=trRB-lo4qR8C&q=%22keith%20moon%22%20lyceum&pg=PT798 |title=The Beatles Diary Volume 1: The Beatles Years |first=Barry |last=Miles |page=798 |publisher=Music Sales Group |isbn=978-0-85712-000-7 |year=2009}}</ref>

Moon's friendship with Entwistle led to an appearance on ''[[Smash Your Head Against the Wall]]'', Entwistle's first solo album and the first by a member of the Who. Moon did not play drums on the album; [[Jerry Shirley]] did, with Moon providing percussion.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.allmusic.com/album/smash-your-head-against-the-wall-mw0000019809/credits |title=Smash Your Head Against The Wall (credits) |website=[[AllMusic]] |access-date=22 July 2013}}</ref> ''Rolling Stone''{{'}}s John Hoegel appreciated Entwistle's decision not to let Moon drum, saying that it distanced his album from the familiar sound of the Who.<ref>{{cite magazine |url=http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-c4WiYrfFJSE/Tkh5fMvV4qI/AAAAAAAAC6Q/6ZLbAM5riic/s1600/RS+-+12-9-71.jpg |title=Smash Your Head Against The Wall |last=Hoegel |first=John |magazine=[[Rolling Stone]] |date=9 December 1971 |page=58 |access-date=22 July 2013 |archive-date=13 December 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131213155827/http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-c4WiYrfFJSE/Tkh5fMvV4qI/AAAAAAAAC6Q/6ZLbAM5riic/s1600/RS+-+12-9-71.jpg |url-status=live }}</ref>

Moon became involved in solo work when he moved to Los Angeles during the mid-1970s. [[Track Records]]-MCA released a Moon solo single in 1974, comprising cover versions of [[the Beach Boys]]' "[[Don't Worry, Baby]]" and "[[Teen Age Idol|Teenage Idol]]". The following year he released his only solo album, entitled ''[[Two Sides of the Moon]]''. Although it featured Moon on vocals, he played drums on only three tracks; most of the drumming was left to others (including [[Ringo Starr]], [[session musician]]s Curly Smith and [[Jim Keltner]], and actor-musician [[Miguel Ferrer]]).{{sfn|Fletcher|1998|pp=402–406}} The album was received poorly by critics. ''[[New Musical Express]]''{{'}}s [[Roy Carr]] wrote, "Moonie, if you didn't have talent, I wouldn't care; but you have, which is why I'm not about to accept ''Two Sides of the Moon''."{{sfn|Fletcher|1998|p=428}} [[Dave Marsh]], reviewing the album in ''[[Rolling Stone]]'', wrote: "There isn't any legitimate reason for this album's existence."{{sfn|Fletcher|1998|p=429}} During one of his few televised solo drum performances (for [[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]]'s ''Wide World''), Moon played a five-minute drum solo dressed as a cat on transparent acrylic drums filled with water and goldfish. When asked by an audience member what would happen to the kit, he joked that "even the best drummers get hungry."{{sfn|Neill|Kent|2009|p=259}} His performance was not appreciated by animal lovers, several of whom called the station with complaints.{{sfn|Neill|Kent|2009|p=259}}
