🥁❤🥁❤🥁 Love your playing, love Zepperella and love so much that you are doing these wonderful instructional vids. If I had ever played anything, it would have been drums. I can't get enough of your Levee vid. It is one of my favorite music vids of all time (and I am 63 😉). Whole lotta love to you and the girls! ❤❤❤
Thank you so much for this! Guitarist and sax player here trying to learn drums. Your lesson was real and intuitive and easy for a musician to understand! Still can't quite play this groove....but I will practice!
This is so helpful. I love how you described Bonham's playing (and how happy you look whilst doing it :D ). I didn't know about the hi-hat accents so have made a note of that. I also like your suggestion of dropping out the kick drum occasionally. I look forward to more of these.
Great stuff here Clementine!! Thank you! "Levee" was the first Zepparella video I ever saw and this beat sucked me right in! Is that a funny car on your shirt?
Ms. Clementine plays like a beast. I like the way her hair covers her head, while she's playing. Reminds me of cousin "IT" from The Addams Family. Lol.
Don't forget " Babes Ride Out ". Week long camp out Joshua Tree National park area in October. An annual event. Females only Motorcycle get together. Live Music at night.
Great idea for this channel!! Request- make a video where you play with a click track and you demonstrate pushing the beat vs. dragging the beat. I’m fascinated by that concept!
Clementine looks like a blonde Angel too. Oh my Darling (3x), Clementine You are here now and forever, There's no sorrow Clementine (The last two bits were improvised by me)
Thank you so much for creating this channel and for sharing your talent and passion in these lessons! I saw you guys at South Liberty in Salem, Oregon a while back and was totally blow away - you looked and sounded like you were possessed by Bonham! Your insight will be a great help to me as a drummer and I'm really looking forward to when you teach Good Times, Bad Times. . .wink, wink!
This is a great video and really helped me get this groove. Thank you. Don't know if it's my phone but the volume/sound seems to drop off after a drum demo section? I've been watching and listening to this demo on the headphones whilst sat at the kit.
I noticed that in the 'Levee video' your mounted tom looks like it is at about a 45 degree angle. I don't know how you manage to hit it so clean and powerfully when it's positioned so acutely like that - but you do and it looks brilliant! :)
Thanks so much! That tom is strange, I've always had it that way. It's actually more level now than it's ever been, as I've moved it over to the side of the drum more so it can be lower. It's still tilted though!
Thanks for the reply! I've never seen any other drummer's tom tilted so extreme like that - it's amazing and unique. You should keep it like that! Great tutorial - to play the Levee like you do, is the hallmark of a great rock drummer. Sadly I fall well short of the benchmark but I'll always love just making a racket in my own way! @@Zepparella
I think I started doing that because 1. my bass drum is so big I couldn't reach the tom if it wasn't tilted, and 2. my hero drummer when I started playing, Dale Crover from the Melvins, had his tom set that way so I just thought that's how you did it. We all fall short in some way, but the joy of drumming rises above all that critical noise, right? Have a blast!
V. interesting - not heard of the Melvins but that's great. Yes, I also noticed that you have a mega super sized bass drum - just like Bonzo :)... Indeed - there is no joy like thrashing the life out of the skins... Bonzo has always been one of my faves - and he was unique really, but there are so many other rock drummers that I loved growing up - Neil Peart, Clive Burr (original Iron Maiden drummer - sadly died too young), Les Binks (Judas Priest), Brian Downey (Thin Lizzy) - I could go on all night - too many to mention! @@Zepparella
I'm a drummer and having so much trouble to keep a steady beat on the high hat I want to follow the kick drum and the high hat. I think practice will solve my problem.
I have watched the song video many times. I grew up with LZ being my favorite (Had all the albums) Enjoyed your video, only just after the drum display the audio was not legible.
I disagree about the kick drum echo. The whole drum section was recorded at the top of the stairs in Jimmy's Mansion to give all of the drums an echo type sound. Are you saying they just applied an echo to that one kick? It's clearly a double hit with the second one a little stronger than a ghost note. If they had to engineer echo into the one kick, that would make John Bonham an ordinary drummer which we all know he was not. Why apply echo when you can just do it with your foot!? Were the triplets in Good Times Bad Times also done with Echo effects?
Sorry Anthony, it was an Echoplex that added the second kick, along with the reverberation of the stairwell, you're correct. And in no way does that negate Bonham's magic! :)
There's a really great explanation of how the drums were recorded on the original and also a debunking of the myth that the echo would be all from the spacious building they played in. It's by Rick Beato: ua-cam.com/video/XZYDDX1DHDU/v-deo.html
You are one bad ass drummer! You look like you really enjoy beating the hell out of that kit!
you girls got the groove ...its all about loving what you doing...one can hear it ...one can feel it

@@Zepparella We need an album to listen to. I'm going to see Heart in September. I wish you were the opening act !!!
Don't forget " Babes Ride Out ". Week long camp out Joshua Tree National park area in October. An annual event. Females only Motorcycle get together. Live Music at night.
Great drummer
Thank you!
Bonham was a genius! You are really great though! Love your drumming and thanks for sharing your knowledge.

Never thought of that........... keeping the song from 'running away'. Like brakes on a train going down a mountain.... WillyB
