Kip has been teaching with West Music since 2001. He currently plays with the band Fat Cat and fills in as a sub for other area bands.
Thx Kip! Gr8 breakdown of Bonham's Rock n Roll solo. Intersting trivia: Bonham actually stole that from Carmine Appice! Yeah, I couldn't believe it until I heard it! He ripped every note from Carmine, but Bonham played it soooo much better! I forget which Vanilla Fudge song it was from.. maybe Shotgun or What makes a man a man (sorry don't remember the name of this song!). Not knocking Bonham! He's my idol! Drummers always "borrow" stuff from each other anyway. Thx again!
