John Bonham Biography

Long overdue... JB was laying it down behind some of the most seminal rock music, and greatly influenced rock drummers that followed. His creations are indelibly in my musical memory.
 
I’ll probably read this, even though it’s advertised falsely as the “first ever” biography of Bonham. Has brother Mick wrote a book about John’s life. It was released in 2005.
 
Just finished reading this. The incredible life story of John Bonham. From the earliest years playing in any local band to make some money to support his family to the pinnacle of rock music. Everyone that could be interviewed or quoted about the life and times of him is in this book. All the incidents, brutal early tours, internal personal struggles and inside the recording sessions in chronological order. Really the best origin story of Led Zeppelin I've ever read...Face it, Bonham was and still is the greatest of his era.

Highly Recommend.
