this is just awesome, and yeah, clicktracks are too sterile-music needs to breathe, and Bonham knew how to swing, like all the great greats-@gawdmachine, Roger Taylor is my ALL-TIME favorite, just because of the different drum sounds and styles of music he plays
I believe the meter is dictated for some of this song by the freqency of the LFO set to a square wave that is tied to a filter that makes the synth sound like straight 16th notes. Not a click, per se, but definately machine-dictated time. It starts around 2:10 of this post.
All good drummers drive the song, drive the band. Here, the greatest drummer of all time shows how it's done. Sends chills down my spine to listen to this brilliantly constructed drum track. RIP, brother.
I can almost guarantee you that he did not. I think he (like Roger Taylor) would find it offensive to what they do with time. Imho, great drummers know how to keep a steady meter and let the time breathe with the music as it should. Old school before it was called old school.
I'm a recording engineer that has grown tired of people playing to computers, I want to hear talented people playing with other talented people again.
We've gone click-dependant and look how stale most modern music is.
First time I've heard this track with no voice. Thanks, made home work much easier to complete. Did you have the album or updated CD?
