John Bonham

Today is John Bonham's 61st birthday. Which means it's time to get down and get crazy. If you don't know who Bonzo is you may as well click your way outta here and never come back, or better yet, just crawl into the nearest hole you can dig up and die.

The rest of us are gonna stay right here and partay and rock and roll...

5/31/48-9/25/80

This interview cracks me up. Apparently, it's the first British TV interview with The Led Zeppelin...



And possibly the last televised interview with the man of many words before his untimely passing...



And the most rockin' LZ youtube vid I could find that didn't deny embedding...



Feel free to pull out your Zeppelin collection and celebrate all day long.

Happy Birthday, Bonzo...from me and the rest of your kabillion fans!!






You can see lots more pictures and learn more about John Bonham and the 47 other musicians in my tribute book, .

I was always amazed at the fact he used only one bass drum! Just super fast on the pedal - a master of complex rhythms, like on "Black Dog".
