Beginning (1976–1980)

Alongside his friend Riff Regan, Moss joined the punk band London in 1976,[7][8][9] after being tried out as a drummer with The Clash, Jon later said "the mix of personalities didn't work; their attitudes were too different to mine".[9] They released a single entitled "Everyone's a Winner" and were managed by Simon Napier-Bell and eventually recorded two singles, a 4 track EP and an album for MCA Records in 1977.[10] Following, he had the honour of going on tour with the established punk band The Stranglers and they got a record deal.

Soon afterward, Moss began drumming for another punk band, The Damned. He replaced Rat Scabies, who had quit the band. He made the final decision to join The Damned after he was injured in a car crash on 1977 New Year's Eve, suffering fractures in his face, resulting in a broken nose and had his injuries required 250 stitches and a week's hospital stay.[5][11]

Moss briefly played with Adam and the Ants, just before their commercial success, on their third single "Cartrouble" and the b-side "Kick".
