I was reminded of what I so dislike about Bonham---his playing was so
"literal", so un-poetic. It didn’t have any elegance, any grace. Almost
rude! His bass drum triplets (one of the tricks he is known for) were
played just to show he could do it, not to serve any higher purpose;
they didn’t have anything to do with what anyone else was playing or
singing, or to the song itself
@bdp24 ,
I'm a huge Bonham fan, and IMO, his style was perfect for LZ, but here is a side project of his featuring literal, heavy drumming, with unnecessary bass drum triplets. Very disappointing...
