One of the truest interpretations a Bonham's drumming I have heard
Thank you
Here here🙂
Yes, indeed.
Freezing in admiration. There are no words.
The beat that makes the music complete. Incredible.
This is a professional and, most importantly, free lesson for all those who are interested in Rhythm areas.
Let's donate for this wonderful work.
Thank you, George
Thanks so much!
One of the few drummers I can stand to listen do an extended solo, straight up fire George! 🔥
Thanks!
I've always said that Bonham's sound and touch are the most evasive to recreate. I've never heard anyone come close. I can honestly say this isn't close. This is right on top of. More than anything I'm in awe.
Right. People commonly talk about his power but it really about dynamics, endurance and pulling sounds out of the drum kit.
Best Video on Earth.
I'm blown away AGAIN! It's like i'm watching what Bonham would have put out if he was still alive or I have unlocked hidden solo's.. Amazing, thank you!
Georg, Mega Drumming. Wonderfull. Greetings from Germany
Yes sir. Drumming gave me tinnitus, tendonitis, carpal tunnel and ulnar nerve surgeries on both hands and elbows. I’m 64 now and have arthritis in every joint. Fair statement that drumming is a full contact sport. Be careful friends and stay healthy. And great job George.
Same, add to that almost 15,000 hours of jet helicopter in flight noise, 11 motorcycles and 3 decades of drums. I sleep with hand braces on. 67 years old. But I’d do it again….
Cheers, 🙏🏻
Hold the stick between the thumb & middle finger not the index finger. Dave Weckl said his career was saved cause he switched to this. More natural bounce with this grip. I got rid of tension in the hand when I switched. I still use the old way for a couple of things but not much.
@@Bill-vy3fx thanks, I'll try this
Love those drums George, they sound superb. (with you playing).
All I can say is that such a cool, effortless, shake your money maker groove. Terry from Bonzoleum, yourself and Brian Tichy have the best interpretations of Bonham’s style, along with his son Jason. Two thumbs up👍👍 Cheers from Fiji👊🤙🤘😎🇫🇯
Sorry guys, my english is bad, I think in portuguese, and I wrote in portuguese. I have Tourette syndrome, and I want to make a video playing drums, but wen I play in front of the camera is so dificult! Im working on this, ans I hope to show my talent for you! By the way, great job George, I love your amazing job! God bless you!
Thanks
Great sound and articulation !
THE BEST interpretation of Bonham on the planet. Hands down. Full stop. I really enjoyed this - thank you!
Great George! That's some workout! I'll follow with all my might until I drop! Tremendous inspiration, take care George!
Been watching george since terry introduced him.He is the epitome of great drumming.
So much going on here. Lots to learn from. Thank you!!
Starting out with the live outro of Dazed and Confused from TSRTS - that section of that version doesn't get talk about enough --- it's totally killer -- on the drums, bass and the guitar soloing is out of this world. Unique for sure... sorry about tinnitus, George.😊
I've found that stretching before practice and gigs really helps.
Yes, most definitely, I often forget to do it but that's essential
Enough study material there to keep me busy for YEARS! Fantastic, thank you George!
not even half way through and I'm like that's awesome!!!!
In 1981 I auditioned for a band & they asked me who's the greatest rock drummer & I said John Bonham.
A girlfriend of the leader of the band said
"No, Neil Peart is the greatest rock drummer!".
I didn't get the job! THANK GOD! ✌️😁👍
I hope you and Terry stay healthy. You guys do more for people than you know. Trust me. 🙏
Thank you!
Please George, make a Snare Tuning Video. Batter Reso and Wires tenchen. Greetings from Germany
This was inspiring! That kit sounds so good, and the way you developed the ideas was awesome
Thanks !
Brother sorry for the health issues but my friend i need to say that you entire video is packed full of amazing drum shops in Dynamics and groove and if you are obviously trying to you know kind of give it a Bonzo spin brother you have nailed it and I mean nailed it well and the tone and tuning of your kit is great.
That kit sounds so good....
Super inspiring! Amazing stamina/ability to relax, the mental focus required. Also very educational ( watching at 50% speed! ) thanks for doing this!
Thank you!
This is the greatest thing I've ever heard in my life.
OMFG!!!!,......well done!
Awesome!
Chops chops chops for days👏bravo sir. And yea, a great workout.
This is so awesome!! I needed to hear this today
Haha left us hanging at the very end there! 😂
I always used protection during rehearsals. It's all the concerts I've been to where I would stand by the PA without earplugs that gave me constant ringing.
You are killing it man that's amazing
You are awesome!!! That’s my kind of working a groove!!!!
Cool idea, thanks, I will practice that. Like your drumming man!
What a treat that vwas!! Thank You!!
beautiful perpetual motion. Thank you, George.
To flow without damage You are injury free .. People need you
sons of thunder
Great job G! 👏👏🥁
Amazing to watch a exciting drum solo. Great job.
Nice Work!
Amazing Drum chops!!!!
Thanks George, great drumming and very inspiring!
Doesn't get better than that. A masterclass in sound, technique and musicality. Job extremely well done.
Thank you
that's quite a workout ! sounds fantastic !
Amazing technique and the micing of your drums is fabulous!
Great playing and kit sounds absolutely incredible
Thanks for this, I’m gonna try this tomorrow
George Flufas, you are a giant And by far my favorite drummer... online, or offline. Thank you for your generous advice, and lessons, and tutorials.
My first comment was half way through. I just finished watching to the end. AMAZING! I was imagining what Robert Plant would be thinking if he saw this.
Thanks!
Awesome!!!
Now that you're warmed up
Lets see whatcha got!!
Thank you.very inspiring❤
Too good.
Resistance bands helped me loosen up my issue with tendonitis. I know this is a just RUclips comment, but I highly recommend getting the ones with handles and putting it around a doorknob and figuring out all the basic exercises it can simulate. Bench press, arm curls etc. can be a great stretch. PT often will utilize them. Swimming as well. Heard you throw in that Roy Haynes stuff on the rim. slick!
Thank you! Yeah, I'm going to look into the resistance band.
Nice warm up!! Feel better
Fantastic,everyone should just start Drumming, great exersice sounds fantastic.Drumming for peace.
Can't wait to try this. You opened my eyes . never thought of the health of a drummer in depth. Thank you
That sounds incredible. Your kit sounds just like Bonham's and you have amazing skill. Great video!
Very nice playing Sir and great sounding kit.
amazing!!! Would LOVE it if you did a "how-to" video on these grooves😁🤘
I've done some tutorails on this groove, check my playlist for demos tutorials.
That was superb!! I'm not a drummer, but I love the sound of John Bonham and you nailed it.
Will you join my band? 😆😆😆 You're the drummer we've always been looking for!!! Seriously though man, that was F'n AMAZING! Spot on...technique, tone, dynamics, patterns...really well and truly impressed. Keep it up! And I'll keep yelling at MY drummer until he understands that drums are there to be hit....HARD....not his little tappy tap taperoo 😏
All I can say is absolutely amazing.I've been a bonzo fan for forty years And there ain't no one that can touch you. Absolutely amazing thank you so much.
Beautiful playing my friend
The drums sound perfect to me. I’m always super picky about getting my rack tom right where I want it. Between the room, mics, tuning, and your technique and feel - you nailed it!🤘
Very nice Ludwig drum sounds, including the excellent snare sound.
Nice work 🎶🥁🎶
Браво! Спасибо!
That low end is killer
Sto seguendo i tuoi video e devo farti i complimenti. Aldilà della bellezza del SOLO , bisogna sottolineare il SUONO . Amo come riesci a far suonare quella LUDWIG....io non ho mai suonato una VISTALITE ,ma penso che non sia facile da accordare? O mi sbaglio ? Ad ogni modo ,ho molto da imparare dai tuoi video.un saluto dall' ITALIA. Che il martello degli DEI continui a Battere.😊
George, I use Bose Q35 II headphones while playing drums. It has noise cancellation & I know it doesn’t help because it just releases other noise to drown out what’s actually going on outside the headphones, but even when the noise cancelation is off it is not too loud. I want your opinion on if those are good for long term. I play a couple times a week. I have gun range over ears but it kind of hurts my head. What is your opinion on that? Do you think the Bose Q35 II is sufficient to avoid hearing damage?
I'm not sure. Wish I had more knowledge on that
Hello George, I often think about the many pioneers in drumming that passed at young age and wonder what influence would they have upon the music today. I regard those past and present artists that have had an impact upon drumming as your peers. Although, I as a drummer cannot do what you do, I appreciate beyond words how a piece like this has the ability to bring us in and carry us along. This happening as you are developing the piece. Yes I hear Art Blakey. I hear Elvin. I hear Tony. I feel groove and time. Purdie has the same ability to play musically for 30 minutes, and the rhythms are methodical and soothing. Thank you for your influence and impact upon drumming.
Thank you, really appreciate it! 🙏🏻
You make it look effortless ❤❤ cheers from uxbridge
think it’s time to say george fludas is my favourite drummer !
You are amazing, what stamina you are one of best I have ever heard I wish I could talk to you about your ailments I may be able to help you just by sharing some knowledge and information with you that you might not be aware of !!!!!
Plays like John Bonham, looks like Bill Ward. A winner in my book!
Buy an E-bike, you'll have ALOT of fun while getting exercise. You can also use it for light errands and potentially save some gas money ;-) - Thank you for sharing!
Your technique is more accurate than Bonzo's. Great job !
Great exercise George
I’ve never heard a closer approximation of Bonzo’s sound. Amazing!
Good timing for this as I recently had surgery on my right collar bone (an old injury reared its ugly head). I just started today with my practice pad and hope to be back behind the kit soon getting back in to gig shape.
Awesome 🥁🥁🥁
Bobby Rondinelli !!! Awesome drummer !! When are you going to make us a video of "stone cold"? Were there "snare drags" in the beginning of that song?
Thank you for posting this. I have had numerous cervical and lumbar surgeries in the past 1.5 years and still have neuropathy in both arms and legs. I want to get back to playing, and this workout is now one I plan to use! Great post!!
George is on it, in it and with it. Jhb is smiling somewhere🥁😎
Most impressive! I admire your talent and the amount of work and passion you must have put in to be at that level! Do you ever struggle with wondering if you're bothering the neighbours in the house next door? I don't have adequate sound proofing. I'm down the basement but I alwys feel like I might be bothering someone. I never play too late or too early though. Thanks!
Actually I'm renting a practice space and it's kind of an old industrial building
@@BONHAMOLOGY Thanks so much for your reply!
THANK YOU SMOKIN!
I wish the engines of my vehicles sounded like that (not that I complain about them:) ). You mentioned two of the most common musician's health issues. Being a care taker and a non professional is the only reason I haven't got that much of tinnitus (yet) but I "married" tendonitis an age ago (on my left hand from guitar) and I have to pay a lot of attention to keep it away over the last many years, most of the times successfully with a few exceptions though. Ian Paice described his partial loss of hearing by saying "but that's just a very small price to to pay for what I have experienced doing this". Superb playing once again George, no visible or audible signs of tendonitis, if nothing else :)
Thank you. Yeah, I believe those are the two most common afflictions associated with playing instruments.
In 40 yrs I've never heard a such a Bonham-esque sound from another dude.
Very impressive
🙏🏼
Hi George, amazing drumming as usual.im 65 now and not into gym stuff,either.i find yoga great for my drumming and health, cheers 🇮🇪
As usual ALLLLLLL of us fellow drummers appreciate your talents and AND LESSONS that you share with us!!! ALLLL for FREE!!! SORRY ABOUT YOUR health YOU ARE A LEGEND AND INSPIRATION TO YOUR FANS!!! THANKS 😊BROTHER 🥁 DRUMMER!!!
Really dig the single pedal work
George - amazing. You need to do another video on your snare tuning. Pls!
Great sound and technique, but it was the stick flips that did it for me". Thank you
Ha, I regretted holding the sticks backwards so I flipped them!
@@BONHAMOLOGY "Par Excellence" George. Thanks for the treat".
Best drumming Iever heard!!!
And saw🧏
Yes! Love that hi hat sound - this whole sound is at the next level!
As a kid watching Moby Dick on the movie, I always thought the triplets and Quads were the best part, even though I knew all the in between parts your doing here are really the meat and potatoes of Bonham's brilliance really is! I was just like,"How the Hell and what the hell is he doing?" But now as an adult I know what he is doing and I can do a lot of it, but you have it down Bro!!! Your amazing, I don't get bored for a second watching you!!! Thank you!!!!!
🙏🏼
@user gd you insulted Robert Plant on a you tube video from 2023 you said he should retire and stop living off of his Zeppelin days, you are an absolute moron and know nothing about music or life. Sorry George but I just can’t let it go
Nice FYI for ear health.
Rocky is now giving drum lessons :)
