This may be one of those "I was today years old when I learned this the first time" for you, a great piece of drumming that confounds many a bar band. Hopefully this clears it up - here's the right way to hear and play that drum intro from John Bonham.

I've been a drummer for 45 years, I just learned something fantastic!
Don’t worry look up the Rick Beato interview he does with Danny Carey and Danny said he recently found out about this as well. and he’s one of the best drummers of all time
@chadgrov who told you I was worried? Look out for yourself and don't worry about me!

Best explanation of that intro in the history of ever! Awesome!
Oh man never made the Chuck Berry connection, too cool
It's Keep A Knockin by Little Richard, not Berry.
I'd heard the Little Richard connection, but because we all know Bonham tended to play to the guitar part., this guy is definitely on to something here 👍 it fits the Chuck Berry intro perfectly
I’ve only heard the Little Richard connection, great knowledge on your part!
Now this makes sense. You are awesome for showing this and the way you did it was awesome!!!!!
Except, that's not how it went...
Danny Carey from Tool changed this for me forever last week in his Beato interview;
“And a one •• and a two •• and a one • two • three • four”
Works perfectly. 😂
That's a great insight regarding the Chuck Berry intro!
Unfortunately it's incorrect...
Bonham was not Mimicking Chuck berry on Intro, He Got intro from " Keep a Knockin " from Little Richard, give it a listen.
Well, sort of. The open hat and snare technique, yes, is a nod to that but not the beat. The beat is different and was what t I was trying to speak to. But you're right, super similar to Keep a knockin
@@12footchainNO SIR¡¡AND AGAIN NOOOOOO¡¡is the same drum intro¡¡¡are you deaf bro???
Bingo!
@12footchain good ears bud! You nailed it, AGAIN, YOU NAILED IT! 🥁🥁🥁
That's exactly right and he also comes in on the and of three, as opposed to coming in on the one.
I've noticed this for a long time and without the count in like you do, it tricks the ear. Thanks for explaining this!
man I have loved Bonham all my life and never made that connection. this fills my heart with joy man ✌️❤️🇬🇧
This is the best breakdown I've seen so far. I've always put the "ONE" on the first snare hit and it always threw me off. It's actually "And-Four-And" I think.
THANK YOU!!!!
Amazing! Best guitar channel ever!
I love a great upbeat probably more than a great downbeat, and it’s simply magic hearing John and the Lads dancing in the space between both of them like this. If that tune is a 3/2 signature, even more magical!
Wow! Very cool man! Love your videos and tutorials
Best explanation and example I’ve heard yet.
Yeah! This has always baffled me. Thanks.
something I've been meaning to look into, thanks! and the Check Berry thing, cool!
Thank you!
Are you kidding me?! I love how expained that so well
Never thought of that now it makes total sense
Wow
The band arguments that were started just on this song intro alone! Lol.... Jethro Tull's Teacher intro was another for us back in the day when we were young and naive
Cool, never knew this ❤.
Awesome breakdown of a classic tune. Now I know when to start playing the opening riff👍🏼
Yes......thank you!!!
That was very cool
Thanks !
Thank you for how the 8 count works with this!!!
Correct. Permanently changed how i hear that song. Freaking cool thanks!!
I’ve always loved tripping up potential drummers for bands I’ve been in by testing them to see how they count this intro. God, there’s a lot of guys out there that simply do not have a clue. Once you hear the real count-in it’s easy to remember it.
Nice
Nice tidbit of info - putting it with Chuck Berry it made a lot of sense
All those guys , everybody, loved Chuck Berry
Your the best and so was John and company.
Love your work
Thank you! Cheers!
This hasn't been a mystery for a looooooong time but I have to say that NEVER it has been explained as well in such a short clip. Plus all the cultural/history added. Good job!
Wild…
Thanks !
Brilliant! Thanx!
yes actually I did that before for a gig and it was a tricky pick-up, particularly when the drummer isnt quite up to Bonham standards. other Bonham's are D'yer Maker and When the Levee Breaks
Genius connection!! Love it!
That was cool 😎
Oh man how cool is that!
yes yes and yes Awesome❤
My head just exploded!
Wow , thanks man
Never hit subscribe so fast. That was A1 content. Keep it up.
very good.....and i love the song...always have...since it first came out....yep
Ha! Very cool!!!
You nailed it...RocknRollflat5
Zep the best!!
Nice!
Yes that a was a very nice number from the band, and now we present in living color, the Lawrence Welk singers in a wonderful rendition of Dipsy Doodle in the Noodle. Now take it away.
Jeff Buckley figured that out first
Explain please
@@curragh4635one day jeff buckley got into tool's rehearsal room and told them.danny carey told this to rick beato some time ago.its on video

Yeay, thanks.
Dude! Dats da money brau! Yes! Thanks for the info
Awesome! I'm subscribing now!!!
Thanks for subbing
John Bonham was mimicking😮 the start of Little Richard you keep a knocking
Sweet
Nice like it
Tune was generated from Little Richard's You Hear Me Knocking jam
Only proves how influential Chuck Berry was
Good one
Cool
Damn!
Haha... You watched the Danny Carey interview with Rick Beato
👍🇦🇺
cool make sense
Oh, very interesting
cool
Cute!! I knew it wasn't rocket science
That was cool and kinda mind blowing!
I don't know why but I've always thought this could be a beatles song, I imagine Paul singing it, similar to helter-skelter
Crazy fact… they were jamming when he did that and Page riffed off that drumming… they felt they had something… 15 minutes.. yes 15 minutes later the band wrote Rock & Roll. The whole fourth album was done in 15 days
I love that. Why doesn't that happen anymore
Those are usually the best recordings
🤯
It’s originally based on Little Richard’s Keep a Knocking drum intro
Exactly, I don't know where this Chuck Berry crap came from... But I guess if you want to know about drum lines, just ask the guitarist.😂😂😂😂
I wish somebody would figure out the count-in for the Beatles' Drive My Car.
That guitar tone also sound Chuck Berry-ish
One can learn a lot from Chuck Barry.
Someone else who saw the Dan Carey interview with Rick Beato... 😅
Hey - content policeman - yeah I saw it - and yeah it's been knowledge out there for many years prior, not everything on Beato is the first original thought, and I'm not claiming it is for me either. Just an interesting topic that appeals to many and many hadn't seen it yet. So yeah nothing for me to apologize for. But by all means keep trying to dunk on people if it makes you feel better.
I still don't get it. When you said "And 1" you seemed to drag the time on that. The Chuck Berry thing helps though!!
Far out. Never heard that one before
Actually it's a little Richard drummer, Mr guitar player. Thanks for showing up will call you when we need you
Not quite. Yeah he borrowed the open hat sound from keep a knockin, but not the beat. My point was about the timing and beat.
Well done
I thought it was from a little richard song. Never heard it being from Chuck Berry until now.
The problem with this explanation is that he is mimicking the drum intro from Little Richard’s Keep on Knocking. So I guess wouldn’t that guy who played for LR be the one who mimicked Chuck Berry?
Good question but in my opinion no. The sound of the drum riff yes, the open hat and snare sound yes. But the actual beat/cadence that the CB riff is, is not how the LR one goes. Hopefully that made sense, difficult to explain over comments text
Hmmmm. I heard that "Bonham had based the "Rock and Roll" intro on the phrasing of Little Richard's "Keep a Knockin' ", which was recorded in 1957 with Charles Connor on drums (Connor was famous for his "Choo Choo Train" beat, which consisted of successive 8th notes with a loud backbeat)".
What do you think?.
The sound and open hat approach yes 100%, but the beat phrase itself is different and lines up with the chuck berry style guitar riff. The keep a knockin phrase is a little different
My bands (per drummers) always worked it after 8 drum beats as he says, then guitar starts at 1&2&3. I feel misled to count as if it’s 8 beats per measure as he seems to indicate. Perhaps I’m confused 🤔
Great explanation...but it was fron Little Richard...😊😊😊
Not that simple though, right? Sound yes, beat no
You dont need a metronome, you just need to listen to the drummer.
Too bad Jimmy Page didn't sit Phil Collins down and explain this before their set at Live Aid!
True! Lol!
@@12footchain...😮❤ Very Clever
discovery...
What is 12 foot chain a reference to ?
A. DNA sequence. ?
Funny...my first Rock Concert ever
was in July 1969, Asbury Park
Convention Center, Led Zepplin...
Joe Cocker was opening act whom
I had never heard of.
Jim page had the violin bow and
was wearing a red Cowboy hat.
Thanks for you're perceptive
observation. Mike. Celani
Give me a break when they were fooling around with it Jimmy asked him what he was doing it was the beginning to a little Richard song you keep on knocking
i just think you keep a knockin basically
its on the E of 3 not the and of 2
(Um, watch Beato?) 😉
Gene Kruppa laid that down Before Bonham and Connor .. .
Actually, it mimics a Little Richard tune "You Keep a Knocking But You Can't Come In"! ruclips.net/video/ar_hCwa_DWM/видео.htmlsi=kk9Vs7eJTExrYzUI
He need no crap like that he could just start anywhere
He's not doing Chuck Berry --- Bonzo copied that from Little Richard's "Keep A Knockin'" with original drums by the great Earl Palmer. This has been written about numerous times.
People don’t realize ALOT OF musicians don’t use and1 and2 and3 lol 😂
