I have been playing drums for almost a year and thanks to you, I can do all this fills, zeppelin songs, double strokes, good times bad times triplet, Thank you! You have been great help
I just turned 45, and bought a kit. never played before. Just wanted to say thanks, I really enjoy your videos. Thanks to you I can pay some pretty cool shit. (wish you would count more) P.S love the Bonham snare video.
No matter how old ur videos are it helps to come back an Brush up thanks for your time. Also thanks for letting me kn about the sale of your snare drum on eBay good luck with that.Hey to George 🤟🤘✌
I just "stumbeld" over your channel and I have to say...wow ! Thanks a lot for all the great Bonham related drum playing videos. I´ll check them out one by one...
Rehash or not, great vid. You really get those left lead triplets burning. I've always been pretty good at those bass drum triplets except for Good Times Bad Times. The reason being is that he's playing eight notes with his foot on the hi hat. And when I add the left foot to it, it all falls apart. I really need to slow it all down and loop it over and over, just like you said about the other stuff. Keep em coming!
Thank you for demonstrating something i always wanted to learn in such a simple fashion ! Btw - is this fill similar to Rich Redmonds " falling rocks" demo ?
I started playing drums in the fourth grade,I promised myself,I would get a set,not that I hadn't ever played the set in the 4 years in high school band,But,we know the best drummers get all the play time with the band,I was good doing percussion parts,But,The trapset no,I came back home,I bought the set,I was loyal playing 3 hours a day practicing.Every question every drummer asks,How,long is it going to take me to get real good,7 years was my answer,what a long time,I just Kept playing,nothing new was coming.So,among otherthings,I lost interest and got discouraged with playing, I played for 2 years solid.This video really wants me to pull that set out and play,My bass player friend is really good,I can remember him in the seventies thumping out Black Diamond,He said,its how you practice that makes you good.And,what to practice,I don't need drum lessons,I got you man,Thank You,so much.
Thanks dude! A cool logical extension to your awesome lesson would be Carmine Appice's Linear Grooves or Linear Beats or Linear Sequences or whatever the hell it's called... like your teaching style, too, bud, thanks!
Left hand first . Bonham did those with left hand lead… Back to the shed guys.. try it and it and everthing else he did becomes easier makes sense suddenly..
mmm I' m not agree.. you should be honest.. Bonham wasn't nothing special technically.. some times out of time during lives.. his son is definitely better.... Ian Paice was a metronome.. the speed of his triplets was absolutelly amazing.. Ok i love the Led Zeppelin and i have respect for all of them but I think that the real "masters" were others :) just my opinion anyway :)
+FearThePuff i think that you should study more well done drum fills.. and listen real drummers.. your profile picture says it all.. a fun can't be honest at all.. Bonham was one harm of Paice.. sorry and goodbye
+Alex Enjoy Goodness. JB is clearly an inspiration to the masses, you have a very odd standpoint. At this level there is no 'better', they were and are all very skilled; clearly. JB created his own feel, swing, and rhythm which is unique. He sounds like Bonham, and that in itself is what all the fuss is about. Having 30 drums and acting flash isn't what it all about for a lot of people. I would also suggest you have listen to more live stuff across the board, as from your comparisons above, I think you may be pleasantly surprised, In terms of fills and footwork....JB wasn't a slouch....truly :) For the studio work, timing and fills as you mention, have you listened to the salad tapes? It may bring you on board.
