you're one of the few drummer I've heard that are able to make it sound good...I usually don't try to replicate famous drum fills, intro or groove, but I guess I should try, this is the bible for a drummer...
Awesome job explaining that. I listened to a lot of Zeppelin when I was a young teen and I never really had a full grasp of what Bonham's intention was in that drum fill, but I never cared THAT much to really figure it out either. I'm glad I know now though. It's really odd to start 3 beats before the one. Thanks!
Funny, back in high school in the 80s I played this song on bass in a band and for whatever reason I never thought out the timing of it, I just heard the song so many times I knew where to come in without even thinking about it.
Nate is the man in just willing to share his knowledge and experience about drumming. I have always enjoyed every clip Nate does, and just learnt so much. Blessings Nate, you rock!!!
nice job... now... how about a little credit where credit is due to the fantastic drummer Earl Palmer ( RIP) who bonham COPIED THIS EXACT RIFF FROM on Little Richard's Keep a Knockin. Know your history folks :-)
Aside from this guy, Jason Bohnam is the only other pro I've heard explain this. Jason did some instructional videos early in his career where he mapped it out, though I don't recall how he counted it down. I have a CD with a click and no drums. I could never be in time with the band when they joined in. Now I know why.

ha ! maybe i'm the one who needs to be schooled. another drum historian/friend tells me that it's charles connor who first rocked this beat.
either way, bonham copped it and nate owns it. props EVERYWHERE !!!

You're absolutely right. My bad. I had just been working on Rock & Roll with the band on Rock The Cradle. Def props to Earl P.

Man I had no idea it started on that beat. I always assumed it was on one and Zep just found the beat with the odd bit in the middle.
My band and I play this song on occasion; this will help with that. Thanks!
