Happy Birthday today to the late John Bonham (born 5/31/48) who would have been 75 today. The Led Zeppelin drummer might just be the most sampled drummer in history (alongside Clyde Stubblefield). His thunderous drum chops with single-footed kick drumming and powerful groove have never fully been replicated, as the “Bonham” sound remains a notch above all else. Watch Bonham lay his thunder to “Kashmir” at Knebworth ’79…
