Correct. Not many move the feet like Bonzo

[@toddlavigne6441]

Brian can play better than Bonham. However, Bonham was 2 generations ago...so back then this stuff was crazy good

[@theonlydjtopcat]

@@toddlavigne6441 lol you're out of your damn mind!

[@toddlavigne6441]

@Don Gato....Actually. NO...think about it, every generation gets better at least technically, not with feel. That's a gift and can't be learned. I guess it depends on how you define better. In my humble opinion Carmine Appice had equally as good fills as Bonham and chops as good if not better, considering Bonham learned from Carmine. Not sure if your a drummer, but did you actually read my comment? Emotional bias is really strong in Bonham's favour. In the 70's Phil Collins was at least as good if not better than Bonham. Different style, but Phil is a genius and Bonham was very very talented. Big difference. "out of you're DAMN mind" sounds like a working class counter point. It has no meaning. In a debate I would have already won. Don't want to win just want to hear a argument worth listening to. LOL

[@nightmareasmr92]

seriously! .. Just for passing the time, I watched some joker with zero feel try and explain how to play FITR... Didn`t play the ghost notes, didn`t Mention the ghost notes, ... not sure he even knew what ghost notes were.. The groove sounded like a martian eating Stale popcorn.. Wtf!

@@JesseOnThaDrums listen to the isolated tracks... nothing muffled

[@JesseOnThaDrums]

@@Anomaly.Filmworks yeah I know but what I meant by muffled is that its never fully clear what they're playing. Its do-able but its easier watching one of these videos where everything is explained in detailed fashion. Especially for percussionist/drummers who want to know the techniques Bonham does because its not really easy to hear if he's going Left Right Kick or R K L. All im saying is that its so much easier watching an explained video instead of just listening and guessing

[@natesmith4761]

I was playing drums in a bar band when Led Zep was recording their earliest albums. I'd play the record at half speed trying to figure out what Bonham was doing. Wish we'd had a tutorial like this back then.

[@Christopher-md7tf]

Great video! Straightforward, no overcomplication. This simple explanation finally made the Rock'n Roll intro "click" for me!

[@AKR-lq1if]

agreed!

Christopher Same here, could never get that timing right towards the end. Using this as a reference will make it a lot easier.

One of my favorites will always be the "When the Levee Breaks." That is the heaviest chillin' grove ever! Relax, sit in the back or the pocket and let it flow.

[@gusmif]

Yeah man! The first time I heard it, I was only 8 years old and an older sibling was playing the album when it first came out.

[@duntay9094]

Bonham recorded the drums in a stairwell for that song. Badass.

[@Nred9999]

Duntay that was actually Jimmy Page’s idea to achieve that echoing drum sound. That’s the reason why he was called a creative genius in the studio back in his time.

[@JonBecker81]

Listen with headphones. Those drums sound amazing! You can hear the tone of them so much better than on the old Zep recordings. This is basically the greatest drum tutorial video ever made for so many reasons. Also I never realized how ambidextrous Bonham was. So impressive.

Great tutorial, love the John Henry, from a certain age all aspiring drummers were/are Bonham devotees. And the good times bad times "that's got to be a double pedal" groove challenges us to this day.I still can't pull it off, but I'll just keep trying anyway. His version of the Purdie Shuffle is one of my favorite beats, hearing it isolated is a great way for a drummer to cop that feel. BTW, you've got his thing down, all of it, and it's fun that you make it simple, quick, just rewind for the slow breakdowns, then you speed up to show us the bigger picture. Short, sweet, and too the point, great playing and thanks.

Awesome work! Respectfully, I'd like to add one thing though (because I teach also and it's a valid point). On GTBT, Bonham is keeping the hihat going (1/8ths) during pretty much the entire groove and through the broken triplets. This obviously would be a "next level" thing to add to what Mr. Tichy has done here. I have several students working in this and getting very close to mastering it! That said, awesome work sir!!

[@ferrydrums99]
