  1. Bonzo was also a member of Terry Webb and the Spyders from 1963 to early 1964 (great background info and photos at the Brumbeat site ): Nov 29, 63; Feb 19th, 64 May 30, 64.
  2. A good background on the Way of Life and the rotating list of personnel can be found at the Garage Hangover site. Bonham was a member from June -Sept 66, and Jan-Oct 67. Evening Sentinel, Jun 5, 67; Birmingham Mail, Sep 1, 67; Birmingham Mail, Sep 9, 67
  3. There were several bands in the UK with the name "The Senators", so not easy to figure out which ads were for the band Bonzo was in. These were for locations in and around Birmingham: Stratford upon Avon Herald, Aug 21, 64, Coventry Evening Telegraph, Aug 24, 64 Record Mirror, Mar 7, 64, Walsall Observer, Oct 2, 64
  4. Nicky James Movement (1965/66): Birmingham Weekly Mercury, Aug 15, '65 Birmingham Weekly Mercury, June 13, '65 Birmingham Weekly Mercury, Oct 24, '65 NJM Stagger Lee, Nov 5, 65 (earliest JB 45 ?)
  5. It's amazing what is still out there. 12 secs of 8mm film of the Yardbirds playing at Dayton's in Minnesota on August 5th, 1966. Page and Beck. Page's first US gig. Hope this link works: https://www.facebook.com/gary.schwartz.7737/videos/1383672435827441/
  6. He actually talks about subbing for Blackmore in the video above starting after about the 8min mark...
  7. Haven't seen mention of this elsewhere. From Sounds, Feb 5th, 1972
  8. Great interview with Plant and Bonham in 1972 (Australia). (Did a quick search and couldn't find it here). Background
  9. I don't think that will help. This is the exact quote from the book: The date range is early 90s but not more specific than that.
  10. Sept 24, 1988 makes sense. He wore a similar shirt in 95.
  11. Benny Turner is the brother of Freddie King. These photos are from his book "Survivor: the Benny Turner story". I suspect they are from March 10, 1995, after the Page & Plant show:
