John Bonham

Never heard that. I did read that he felt Barriemore Barlow was the greatest rock drummer England ever produced or something to that effect. Jason Bonham said that Buddy Rich was his dads hero. He was certainly informed and inspired by some truly greats.
 
Having grown up as a guitar player, I always heard Bonham, but never listened to him.
Now that I'm a beginner drummer, and listening to Led Zeppelin has been a completely different experience. It's a shame how much I missed out. I appreciate John Bonham for what he's done and I'm very excited to study him.
 
On the intro to ramble on , Bonham is supposedly playing with his hands on a guitar case. When he transitions to sticks as soon as the song gets going, it would be kind of awkward and cumbersome. Is the intro just an overdub of some sorts?
 
I've also read that it's a guitar case, and most likely a dub; but either way, I play it on the rim.
