What a find! It sounds even better this way
Love the psychedelic hi hat whoosh and the the 16th note flow from his ghosts and the delay (great use of delay BTW) ... and his toms ... and his interactions in the jam section and ...
Thanks Doc!
it's become almost cliche'
we have heard him so many times that we become numb to it
we as drummers are almost programmed with a preconceived notion that John Bonham is a drum god
but my god is his groove AMAZING !!!!!
not everyone can place notes where he places them......you can't really learn that stuff...you are born with that ...it's just the way your limbs fall
quick story
when I was very young ....6 or 7 ....my brother had an old set of Slingerlands and I would bang on them and dent the heads...break the sticks and whatnot
one day he came in while I was doing this....he snatched the sticks from me....put on the 8 track of Zeppellin II..(yes I said 8 track)....left the room and locked the door taking the sticks and not saying anything but .."listen to the drummer!"
I sat and listened to the whole album in my bean bag chair
it changed my life.... literally
I became a drum addict and have been chasing that high ever since
Very cool. Cracks me up listening to him yelling his head off during some of those fills! They shoulda left 'em there and given him some background vocal credit!
This is a real gem! I'm glad you posted this because there has been something that I've always wondered about...When he goes into his drum solo part early on...you know that hi hat sound? Like it's making sound on both the down and up travel?....He's just playing with his foot, that's what it sounds like to me. I tried to get that sound a long time ago. I ended up adjusting for about an inch of slop on the top hi hat. Meaning at bottom pedal, it takes an inch of upward travel before the top cymbal starts to move. The top cymbal is literally sloshing about, and when the bottom part of the clutch comes back up to move it up...it makes the return trip not silent anymore. If you took the bottom felt off the clutch, the metal nut would strike the bottom of the hole coming up. Anybody know what I'm talking about?

My hi hat doesn't sound like that when I pogo the pedal. I think it's way loose on top, just for this song.
