Keith Moon, Kevin Godley & Vince Clarke: what is the link?

What is the connection between Keith Moon, Kevin Godley & Vince Clarke?
It‘s the same thing that links Willie Rushton and Marianne Faithful.
And countless other odd pairings, particularly in the worlds of Hollywood and football. Possibly in rock’n’ll too, but I can’t think of any others. But I’m sure that with the vast depository of useless information at the the Massive’s disposal we can come up with a few more.

They all formed a particularly celebtastic
house chain, as all were inhabitants of "Tara". I think it was Moon, Godley and Clarke, in that order.
I didn't know that about Willie Rushton and Marianne Faithful, but I would imagine that Marianne lived in his particularly lovely wee house in Kenwood Village after him?
I wouldn't be surprised if all three weren't also linked by the fact that for various reasons each prematurely departed a group that went on to sell more units without them. With Vince Clarke it's obvious, 10cc's best selling album was "Deceptive Bends", and I'm not sure about The Who.
Who did
Willie Rushton pound the skins for then? :D
They
all like(d) Mars Bars? C'mon, someone had to lower the tone
