May i just point out one thing here. The title of the video. the key words are DRUM COVER! meaning thats his own interpretation of the song. All you whiny assholes just shut up and enjoy the cover. Hes obviously not Bonham hes jamesgarvey12345 if you want Bonham go watch a video of him live.
how are you able to post this cover..... i tryed to cover this song and got copyright infringement laws smaking me down.... some one please help me......
sorry man, when you subject yourself to the rest of the internet, you will get honest criticism. 1st of all you don't look like you are into the rhythm of the song. Quit judging yourself when you play, focus on the song. Second you are playing catch-up with the song most of the time, it doesn't sound great. Third, HIT THE F***ING DRUMS! It sounds like your main focus is not waking up mom & dad. On a positive note, you sound like you get it together towards the latter half of the song.
nice timing but maybe you should work on your control, tighten up, and my biggest criticism is if your doing Bonham HIT those drums and smash those cymbals
@skateforlife419 So you can get that "bitch-slap"-sound like all others? xD Propher tuning and heads without muffling is just way better, in my opinion c:
awesome!... how the hell could people relaly say ' aw man great cover but hey your hit hat sounds a bit off ' ... fuck off people-you sound like idiots
fantastic, i like the fact that you didnt put a pillow on the bass, a nice booming sound, to each his own when it comes to how the kit sounds, great cover!
@fenderbass609 Its a bit more expensive but I'd always recommend Moon Gel for dampening toms and snare- just cos you can use it on whatever kit your playing on.
I love the stage presence (so to speak) you had in the end there, but in the beginning you were just kinda there. I've learned from the few live set I've actually played, when your playing in front of people, you gotta let em know THE DRUMMERS IN THE HOUSE! Now by that I don't mean play louder, just put more movement into it. Unnecessarily move you arms around a lot, twirl you stick when you get a chance, little things like that get you noticed. Great cover man
maybe this guy should learn the actual part and not put the crash on every beat 1. way to over do the end of the guitar solo with only hitting the ride on 1 and 3. solid but boring with the same thing every measure.
Yo, if you want your bass drum to sound good, take off the outer skin, not the one you hit with the pedal, and keep it off, but put a large folded blanket and shove it in, it sounds much better, more compressed and not as echoey.
fuck dem chirpin niggas, band and I be doing a cover and your vids a great help its pretty much the only drum cover the doesnt suck ass on youtube all the others are shitty quality and post or pre drum solo and yeah so, you pulled it off just next time, get a next cam on yoah foooot
sweet tie is like angus young drumming to Zep haha. your drummin style is great....u can really replicate the great Bonzo,particular towards the end, your TRIPLET FILLS OMG ORGASM sorry ahem, but yea your a good drummer..
PS PEOPLE I MADE A DRUM VIDEO COMPILATION I TOTALLY NEED COMMENTS ON IT, check my profile the first vid is Greatest 60 Drum Songs of Rock n Roll 60-44
I feel bad for not listening to this earlier. How old was this kid very impressive some parts get very difficult to do in that song Ive played it you need to have almost a different beat in every limb it's crazyness. Nice job
Dude whneva i play this song i play the fills dfferent thn Bonham, just becuase i like to put my own spin in it, i dnt really c anythign wrong with doing tht
@NewJohnBonham He was its just the camera. And "New John Bonham" REALLY?!? I'd like to see you play! You most likely suck. Nobody can be Bonham, only Bonham. So get over yourself. My 55 year old dad and his brothers could all destroy you at drums.
i'm sorry but i can do better,this video is full of mistakes,,,listen it better and play it when you're stoned,you'll really understand this song and you'll play it better
wasnt too bad, but you need to make it sound less swing-timey on the hats. your pinching the notes too much. and play with more confidence and feeling. The weakness of your hits makes it sloppy some times.
this could just be my tiredness talking but 4:34 looks like its sped up a bit. not questioning your talent and i doubt it is, it just kinda looks it to me lol
quality ;) thought that might have been the case! i got a led zeppelin drum book and have been workin on that song for 2 days and very nearly have it :) so ur vid helped cheers!
Excellent playing, but the crash resonates like a ride :( Excellent tom sound though, how'd you record yourself? (I'm thinking of making a drum cover vid)
i do this until all the drum sounds just under the pitch where i want it to be
i do this with another method of tuning called opposite tuning, if you're unsure about this check out "bob gatzen's" videos, it was his idea originally. so i tap on the head near a lug and then tune it in relation to the highest pitched lug, you tune the lug up or down with the opposite lug to the one you're hitting this gives you a more definite response in pitch when tuning
Hit it hard like John!

You kind of have to play the fills differently, since Bonzo's fills include him beating the shit out of his kit without mercy.
This was the first Zeppelin song I learned, well done. The triplets were done pretty well, and those are what takes time. Keep up the good work.
And to the moron that posted the fills for the triplets....It's one round repeated four times:
Snare snare, bass, floor tom rack tom, bass, rack tom floor tom, bass, floor tom rack tom, bass. Repeat.
