Bonham

http://www.youtube.com/wa...HLTG5GnZz4


killer song, love the video aswell. Iam learning the guitar solo LOL.




Anyone remember them? As expected, the drumming does rock on some tracks (and this is coming from an ear who does not care for great drumming, but even i can tell the drumming on the track "wait for you" is absolute killer.)

Their first album "disregard of timekeeping" is one of my favs. But i get the feeling no one remembers them or would like to lol

Definately. Jason's band. Son of John. He's not the drummer his dad was but he kicked major ass. I liked this group.

I shoulda known u'd be on this thread LOL.


I dont suppose u own their 2 albums do u? The infamous Bob Ezrin produced their first album.

The epic closer "Room for us all" is one of my all time fav songs. Iam surprised Bonham wanted Ezrin, as his productions are about as raw as mutt lange's. Still, i guess they were competing with the white snakes of the world at the time. Alot better then Whitesnake though.

I have their first album only. I would imagine that they wanted Ezrin because Bob's a fucking legend. Mutt is no joke either. His production on Def's album alone is enough for the price of a first class plane ticket to Japan. He's not in the same class as Ezrin though. The work Bob did on Alice's albums from the 70's are classic. Listen to Cooper's albums before Bob came on board. Night and day. They sounded like a garage band. Bob polished Alice's albums and tightened up the songs untill they were razor sharp. Similar thing with KISS's "Destroyer" album. That took them to the next level. And anyone who can produce Pink Floyd is nothing to fuck around with.

Yeah, its no criticism to Ezrin, but u'd assume that Bonham would want that raw sound like zep had. I tend to like most things both ezrin and mutt lange for that matter, work on. Their 1992 album "mad hatter", which is without ezrin, is alot more like led zep then the corporate rock of "disregard".

"mad hatter" is no way near as enjoyable or as strong for me, as iam a big fan of big ass production on anything musically. Having said that, the video i posted "change of a season" is killer, as are a few of the other tracks on it like the instrumental "los locos" "chimara" and "good with the bad". But most of the other tracks are unfocused zeppelin ripoff's. I think they wanted to escape the ezrin sound.


If u liked that album, I reccomend the album ezrin produced around the same time with trevor Rabin for trevor rabin. Rabin is a "jack of all trades" sorta guy




"cant look away" (1989)

rabin is actually credited on Bonhams album (i think he does bass and backing vox on a few of the cuts). Rabin is a mean guitarist. Title track proves that LOL

Oh hell yeah!! great stuff, they came at a time when it wasnt a cool thing anymore to be a rock band, there were a few other bands that suffered for this another would be SARAYA (amazing band) the problem was that GNR was the new wave of Rock and then came grunge a year or two later and of course that didnt last too long. Great band though.....bad timing to come out

i found a few of their videos on youtube.


"wait for you" (this video is so 80's. I love it)
http://www.youtube.com/wa...S-JGqDpgk0

"guilty"
http://www.youtube.com/wa...ZR3eRduCWU

As i said before, i rate them alot higher then ur whitesnakes, cinderella's etc...thats probably thanx to ezrin, who is an amazing producer (i never said he wasn't LOL)

I can see why GNR (who i also love) sorta changed the rules about how rock could be done so to speak. The budget on "disregard...." musta been huge. U should check "mad hatter", did u like "change of a season"?

Yeah, its no criticism to Ezrin, but u'd assume that Bonham would want that raw sound like zep had. I tend to like most things both ezrin and mutt lange for that matter, work on. Their 1992 album "mad hatter", which is without ezrin, is alot more like led zep then the corporate rock of "disregard".

"mad hatter" is no way near as enjoyable or as strong for me, as iam a big fan of big ass production on anything musically. Having said that, the video i posted "change of a season" is killer, as are a few of the other tracks on it like the instrumental "los locos" "chimara" and "good with the bad". But most of the other tracks are unfocused zeppelin ripoff's. I think they wanted to escape the ezrin sound.


If u liked that album, I reccomend the album ezrin produced around the same time with trevor Rabin for trevor rabin. Rabin is a "jack of all trades" sorta guy




"cant look away" (1989)

rabin is actually credited on Bonhams album (i think he does bass and backing vox on a few of the cuts). Rabin is a mean guitarist. Title track proves that LOL

Wasn't hip to Rabin as an artist. Thanx for that info.

Its a really solid album. Hasn't dated like bonham's debut has. I love it. Not that i care about such things, but u'd be hard pressed to find a bad review of that album
