By: Greg Prato

Narrated by: Greg Prato

Few rock drummers remain as universally praised as Led Zeppelin’s John Bonham. Listen to any Zeppelin album, and you will hear a virtual showcase on expert rock drumming, while never getting in the way of the group’s other members and their contributions - singer Robert Plant, guitarist Jimmy Page, and bassist John Paul Jones.

But sadly, one of rock’s all-time greats died tragically young - he was only 32 years old - resulting in the end of one of rock’s most celebrated bands. To mark 40 years since his passing, Bonzo: 30 Rock Drummers Remember the Legendary John Bonham has been assembled, comprised of interviews with some of the top drummers of rock (including Kenny Aronoff, Mike Portnoy, John Dolmayan, Brian Tichy, and Steve Gorman, among others), discussing what made Bonham such a special and unforgettable drummer.

Bonzo

I’m am & always have been a Led Zeppelin fan since the age of 11-12 yrs old. I play hard, sometimes in the pocket, but I also like to entertain from behind my kit. every time I hear him play, it still amazes me how diverse he was. how much passion & energy he put into every song. there is NO ONE & will NEVER be anyone to knock John Henry Bonham off that pedestal of being THE GREATEST RnR drummer to ever sit behind the kit. he IS a drum GOD!
