If I'm not mistaken, he and Robert performed with Paul sometime in the late 70s... 79, I think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, he played on a few tracks throughout the 70's with people like Jimmy Stevens (1971) , Roy Wood (1979), Paul McCartney ( Beware My Love outtake) and Sir Paul's Back To The Egg session, which is where that pic was taken. He might be on Lulu's Everbody's Got the Clap , but I'm not convinced. He played on Lord Sutch and Heavy Friends but that was recorded in '69. I wish he had guested with more people. I love hearing him support other bands, but most of these were not so good IMO. I wish he had the opportunity to play with someone like Stevie Wonder, or some soul and funk artists that he loved. That would have been epic. Or Supertramp! Edited October 8, 2019 by porgie66 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anniemouse Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 Thank you for the replies. Oh for the Stevie Wonder collaboration. Wonder how a session with George Clinton would have gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators sam_webmaster Posted October 8, 2019 Administrators Share Posted October 8, 2019 He also played on Jimmy Stevens 'Don't Freak Me Out' LP (1972). Two tracks if I remember correctly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The uncompromisingly precise power he played with is immediately identifiable, just as his feel is. He was an incredible, nearly incomparable talent. Very few musicians legitimately change the world of music, and even fewer do it without being a songwriter. Bonham did it from behind the kit in a band comprised of three immense talents, and because of that he is in a very elite group of musicians. This.
