Every time I go to YOURS and GEORGES channels I get full of OUR forums knowledge as well as EVERYONE else does!!! THANKS and I don't take it for granted!!! THANKS TERRY 😊
If I may make an observation sir... you are the absolute f***in’ MAN! Why can’t all drummers have this personality/ love for music/ wonderful technique and passion for the tiny details? Seriously if you ever need a band and are in the cape cod area message me! Keep up the greatness!
I've made attempts to explain these types of things when I was young growing up while I was married after my divorce the last 20 years with present wife.....here and there on UA-cam......but nobody seems to get it!!! Thank God somebody does. 👍👍
Nicely done. This is definitely one of Bonham's best songs and I remember bringing it to my drum teacher way back in the 80's (while learning Steely Dan). He listened to the record (vinyl) and occasionally he would go "oh...mm...oh ok..." Then I practiced my 6/8 jazz beat. Regarding the Hi-hat. It sounds like to me he keeps tempo with a closed hi-hat foot accent (which varies and technically might be syncopated by starting on 2). He might be slamming it closed with his foot, or with his foot and a stick accent too. It also sounds like he slams the hi-hat shut on the 1/8 note just before most of the snare fill/accents (pssck-thwat). I'll be checking out your other vids. Thanks.
Terry ,you relate things in such an interesting way I think you could recite The continents of a Chinese phone book and people would listen. We appreciate all the hard work.
Hi. I work with a woman who's bf/husband has done many things and was told he bought an electronic kit a few years ago for much more than a high end Ludwig kit. She said (Sheri Deming Eliot Johnson (ELLIOTT) he bought large pads, but a system that built up muscle making acoustic playing really easy. It was not easy to play like a Roland system and while a teen/20's? played drums with his lawyer friend Libby Fulgione, John McCarthy and another friend John and some times Frankie Pelligrino. Anyway. When he got behind an acoustic kit, he was very good, fast and I was blown away as I never heard the electronic set that much. But last night he was laughing as he acts like you do and when I asked why he was laughing. He said he couldn't believe how easiest it was to play, loved your teaching style and was on the floor with laughter when you where acting like a nut as he got it. He loved it and wants to meet with you to see what you two can do about the Bonham tapes (if they exist), as he worked for A&R, A&R Soundtracks/Music Supervision, Composer, Beta tester, (one of few owners Giga Stidio for Mac before Tascam sold (also certified 420 Medical Grower),Chemist, Electrical Engineer, Several IT CERTS. And grow light beta tester and building his own LED system. He said Cree was going to make LEDS work (CREE PUT OUT a light reference design that beat HPS last month or so. Not sure how he knows things before everyone else, but does. But said LEDS will be everywhere soon. Anyway. Can you do a basic as well as a Ludwig kit you can grow to start with a John Bonham kit? He showed me some songs when played differently, can also sound like rings who also he worships as many think what Ringo did was easy. It is not. So he says. I know he would appreciate and I would love to be the one to tell him "which" kit to buy. 😁. He wants to move to Maine. It is beautiful but said even here (Los Angeles). Plus he said some in his family are t doing to well and wants to get back. A.S.A.P. O.T. fwiw. He also said that most medical 420 items have BLACK/DARK GRAY ASH. He says it's not flushed. His is "Sulfur White", strong and cured from two weeks to 1-2 months. Says everyone else sells to dispensary way to early so. He hope to be a big fish in Maine. (Medical), as he wants to research a cure for his sister. CIDP/Neuropathy. I've seen him crest more CBDs by leaving a plant in longer. I have witnessed early harvested sativa's which made you speedy (wake up. Better than Adoral (again told). Sorry. Just wanted to say how cool he is as he's picky with friends. Knows Ringos Starrs manager as they might be doing something. Anyway. His (gf/wife), partner said he would love to meet with you and hope you can do a basic Bonham drum purchase and tuning. Thanks. PS. You are funny and he got you like now one I've ever seen before. So great job. I was told he laughed and laughed when he saw how simple you made it as well as got your teaching style. His name is Frankii Elliott. He has two websites he's working on. But they should be up soon. The reason I brought up Maine was that he can get a home/farm for. Fraction of Los Angeles), but more importantly he wants to build a studio with real drums and a studio on the beach. Called. Wells Beach. Thanks again.
Love your videos, I am a subscriber. Also in St. Charles, Ill over this Memorial weekend 2015, Jason Bonham's Led Zeppelin Experience is coming for two shows to Arcada Theater. See you there.
Great video.IMHO, what sets this groove apart is the feel. He achieves this with the hi-hats. He plays a heavy stick a couple inches down the stick on the edge of the hat cymbals, and in the "whaddaya, whaddaya think I saw..." Sections, each time on beat 5, he lays back slightly on the time and lifts his hi-hat foot slightly to give that beat a thicker sound. Check it out.
Love your channel Terry. I must be an idiot. Zep is my favorite band of all time but I also thought the lyric was "whoopie cat"!! Thanks to the commentators for making me look this up and setting me straight after 40 years!! :) You should be or are you in a major band or are you a session player for others?
okay, so I'm a Yuge Zep fan and a chick watching this and I am just amazed at how a drummers head is wired. It's like watching a mad scientist explain something that is an incomprehensible language except to other drummers. Really amazed. Update: Holy Whoopie Cat! LMAO! These lyrics are Hilarious!
I hear an extra bass drum kick in the intro just before the 1 with crash: ta-ta-ta-bang-bong... pup-PSH!! I suppose that makes it a 4-and. It's even quieter that the "echo" kicks in Kashmir but you can hear it wearing headphones.
Terry don't forget the fill that occurs at the very end of the song as it fades out! Bonhams starts the fill on the 1& , and continues the fill through that occurring bar and then the following one. So it is ALMOST a two bar fill, but it is really cool how it's notated. I always ad lib that last fill cause it's so fucking beefy and i never tried to genuinely piece it together. Great lesson man! @bonzoleum
Great video as always, but you've missed the hi-hat/cymbal thing Bonzo did on the "5" count during the main riff. Everyone else's video misses it too but I thought you'd get it. I can't figure out what how he does it!
The long snare drum roll is definitely not an open double but a very tight closed single stroke roll. It does take some finesse and stick control to to play it, but I would bet dollars to donuts that it is a single stroke roll. Love your videos!!!
Vince Trujillo I always assumed it was, as Bonham had that very controlled single stroke roll down pat as heard all over the 69-70 stuff), but if you listen very, very closely, you can hear (or at least I've determined I can) the hand to hand pressure 'two strokes at a time' often makes in a roll. I of course could be mistaken, but if you get a chance, listen very closely to it ten or so times in a row, and see if you hear the 'doubles left right 2 bounce'.
I hear a pressed/closed roll version derived from/related to a double stroke 32nd, which is sorta like what you're saying Terry, just too closed to sound like an open double.
Wait a second. Did I just saw you connecting the headphones to a certain part on the back? Is this your source of information on what to say next on film? Might be inspiring :P
bonzoleum ha ha, one day your sense of humor's gonna make you famous! "Ladies and gentelman, we are interrupting this program with the URGENT coverage!"
NO. That's not what what he's doing @18:00 it's only 2 hits on the snare after the high tom. and the 2nd fill is not that either. He plays it very simply actually. It took me a lifetime to figure it out, but I know I'm 100% correct. "SO I ASKED THEM IF I COULD STAY A WHILE". (doom ta dat doom bloom doom plat doom. psssshhhh) "HE SAID THAT HIS FRIENDS WOULD ALL DROP BY, OOOH" (doom ta dat doom doom, bata, tata, toto, toto).
Closed circuit theory sounds plausible, dude, but remember, someone would have had to press RECORD. If they were just using the system to see/communicate with each other, no need to record unless someone was intent on preserving it for posterity. I think *something* from the truck would have leaked by now if that was the case. Just my two cents. Love ya, Billy
Dude your hilarious! But you're ear for this particular tune is a little off. I know you posted this three years ago but I'd like to tellya to listen closer to some of the lead out of the break fills. You and kick it like Bonham are close but not quite there. There are some bass drum notes and hi hat notes that fill in the space from the hand patterns. Watch his solo from the song remains the same. It's kind of like reverse double kick drum stuff with left foot leading. I'll post a video soon to explain what I mean. Hope to hear from you on this.
Dude you might wanna consider medication !! Or less medication not sure !! You make me nervous just watching and listening !!! But for some reason i cant stop !!!
Man, I hear Bonzo playing a lot more below the equator than I'm seeing in this video. The bass drum stuff Bonham is doing (and omitting, withholding BRILLIANTLY) is a MAGISTERIAL DISASTER during the verses, a big sloppy mess that holds together. I think we're asking a lot for a note-for-note recital of what he does on Led Zeppelin IV. That said, man I'm glad I stumbled this. #WhoopieCats4Eva
Dude, I'd love to drink a beer and listen to Zeppelin with this guy.
Every time I go to YOURS and GEORGES channels I get full of OUR forums knowledge as well as EVERYONE else does!!! THANKS and I don't take it for granted!!! THANKS TERRY 😊
I find myself in a conversation with this guy. It’s really funny. He does get his point across and the videos are great. Thanks 👍👍👍
Don’t stop this, bro. Great instructional....always. Been listening for years.
Thanks Travis!
If I may make an observation sir... you are the absolute f***in’ MAN!
Why can’t all drummers have this personality/ love for music/ wonderful technique and passion for the tiny details? Seriously if you ever need a band and are in the cape cod area message me! Keep up the greatness!
Thank you sincerely, Steven!! I really appreciate the comment. Happy New Year!
Finally someone notices the drums were recorded in the same day/hall as when the levee breaks!!To me this is by far Bonhams greatest ever recording
the intro does set it all up. It's incredible. So funky, the bending of every note and speed. Killer!
Great stuff! Love how Terry points out the finer details. Unmatched energy and enthusiasm.
I might not be able to drum like him, but I sing EXACTLY like him
This guy is hilarious. I want him as my drum teacher
From one middle(beyond)aged man to another....
Thanks for your energy and all the drums!!!!
Be blessed
I've made attempts to explain these types of things when I was young growing up while I was married after my divorce the last 20 years with present wife.....here and there on UA-cam......but nobody seems to get it!!!
Thank God somebody does. 👍👍
Ah yes-the Eagle's Take It Easy, Men At Work's Who Can It Be Now, Zep's R&R, The Police's Spirits In The Material World.. And many more!
mate, if zep were to get together you should defo be drumming! you'd be the best player on stage, and what a tribute to old bonzo! ;)
This guy is plainly great
Thanks Tony!
Great job! Been waiting for this video. Thanks so much again!
"whoopy cat" lmfao
+tankrulez615 i was in tears when i heard that hahaha
I always thought that was what he was singing also!
Dude, you're awesome.
LOL!!!! Was that a fly?? Dude so funny! "I know my roles are shite" - Bonzoleum so funny dude. Love your passion! David Curtis Drumming
+David Curtis Thank you, David!
I wanna be one of your "kids"...um, 'students'!!!!
Hah just you singing the intro takes me back to when I first heard Zep IV on acid.
Don't do drugs kids. ;)
...

. . . . .
AND-WHOOPY-CAT!!
hey dude this is great...............very helpful............lots of fun................
Hi Thanks so much for breaking down one of my favorite Led songs. LOVE your energy, I think we were separated at birth!!!
Nice dissertation, Bonzoleum!

Regarding the Hi-hat. It sounds like to me he keeps tempo with a closed hi-hat foot accent (which varies and technically might be syncopated by starting on 2). He might be slamming it closed with his foot, or with his foot and a stick accent too. It also sounds like he slams the hi-hat shut on the 1/8 note just before most of the snare fill/accents (pssck-thwat). I'll be checking out your other vids. Thanks.

dude this is great shit !! luv it (:
Bonham didn't die, he went to the Misty Mountains
Hey Terry, feel like I know u man , love your channel , from an ol guitar player tunred 😂 drummer
you manage to be incredibly easy to follow as to what your talking about
Love your videos, I am a subscriber. Also in St. Charles, Ill over this Memorial weekend 2015, Jason Bonham's Led Zeppelin Experience is coming for two shows to Arcada Theater. See you there.
Informative and entertaining, sir. For a moment, I thought you were Black Jack.
Great job
You are one funny dude I am cracking up
misty mountain hop is a great showcase for bonzo's genius.
Sing it brother!
Great video.IMHO, what sets this groove apart is the feel. He achieves this with the hi-hats. He plays a heavy stick a couple inches down the stick on the edge of the hat cymbals, and in the "whaddaya, whaddaya think I saw..."

What..............in...............the................holy...............&%$%.............did.................I....................just.................watch...................??????????
If your're not a drummer, this is absolutely obnoxious..I barely got through it....but I loved every minute of it. :)
Great teachings! But don't sit on your wallet! You'll have back issues from pressure on your sciatic nerve! Not kidding! ;)
Isn't that what ended up getting Phil Collins? I've heard both back and shoulder stuff he got hit with.
okay, so I'm a Yuge Zep fan and a chick watching this and I am just amazed at how a drummers head is wired. It's like watching a mad scientist explain something that is an incomprehensible language except to other drummers. Really amazed. Update: Holy Whoopie Cat! LMAO! These lyrics are Hilarious!

Chris Farley just proved he is also entertaining if he was skinny
New to the channel so you referenced Midwest at 03:40 ... lots of places to guess, but I'm going to guess ... St. Louis?

Wait a second. Did I just saw you connecting the headphones to a certain part on the back? Is this your source of information on what to say next on film? Might be inspiring :P
bargla It's like BROADCAST NEWS!
bonzoleum ha ha, one day your sense of humor's gonna make you famous! "Ladies and gentelman, we are interrupting this program with the URGENT coverage!"
I’m pretty sure Jonesy was playin a Wurlitzer
WHOOPIE CAT!!!!
it is woopey cat....and on the second roll, does 2 toms shots I think is first 3 and second 3 :)
'Would you care' not woopy cat 😹
i think he either put one or both sticks on the floor but not on the snare.
Actually I think it comes in on the a, as in 3 e & (a).
Still very enjoyable lesson 👌
NO. That's not what what he's doing @18:00
it's only 2 hits on the snare after the high tom.
and the 2nd fill is not that either. He plays it very simply actually.

Hmmm....... It SEEMS to me you are making the intro a helluva lot more complicated than it actually is. Great vid though(as always).

Is that Jack Black

Word of the day: Globules.
This guy should switch to decaf.
Does Ryan actually talk like that ?

.....and that is why I will never own a cell phone
nice wig dood
You kill me. Please stop.
This video played while I took a shit. I learned absolutely nothing. Don't lessons teach things?
Well, that speaks for itself.
OMG please cut down your hi hat stalk.
Most of bonzo's playing is off, and JPJ would advise bonzo to play it a certain way.
Why u make a 36 minute video four a 4 minute song
