Individually, the band members of Led Zeppelin can have valid claim that they’re a league of their own. They wouldn’t be where they are if it weren’t for the oozing talent coming out from each one of them. Take John Bonham, for example. Every song has a stellar drum part by Bonzo. He’s a beast behind the kit. And to pick only five of his greatest s...
If there’s one word that comes to mind, it’s “POWER” in big, bold letters.

Imagine how much endurance you need to nail it after half an hour of banging and pounding – and he did it without so much as a single mistake. The solo is perhaps one of the finest pieces ...
The secret behind this masterpiece is by having Bonzo play his part on a three-story stairwell and placing the microphones at the topmost level of the stairs. This made the space conducive to echoes. And what did they manage to create? A muffling and echoing sound. It’s like listening to a hypnotic groove with the drum blows so powerful, it’s jaw-d...
