This is some of the stuff you've all been asking for, a lesson on Bonzo "triplets". Indeed there are triplets being played but there is something I feel that is very important to make you all aware of. That is --- how the triplet is played, this is key to the sound. Watch the vid and see what I mean. Thanks.

Wow, effortless playing ! There are lots of solid drummers uploading free lessons on the Tube; but somehow, your vids still manage to stand out. I also dug the one where you blend Paice style rolls with Bonham style triplets. And the Santa Claus bells on the hi hat rock ! Thanks, ' will keep watching for sure.

The Brit drummers left hand lead, may be attributed to the placement of their automobile steering wheel... :)

I've always played mine ascending, and after watching this, I notice such a difference. It's definitely something I'm going to add into my playing to work towards that Bonham sound I love so much. Very informative video. Thanks!
