That'd be great, thanks. I'm kinda done buying Zeppelin literature, I've got books & magazines coming out my ears.

Agreed. I'm tempted to buy the magazine just for that photograph.

My mistake, Bonham is wearing an ITTOD sweater so it is a warm up or pre-show photograph for the 1980 interview.

Thanks, Steve. I'll scan the picture in the next day or so for you to see. It's really thrown me.

Steve, have you seen the new MOJO Zeppelin 'latter days' special? There's a picture in there of Bonham with Billy Connolly circa '77, it's definitely not from the televised 1980 interview. I can't for the life of me figure out where it's from but it really looks like an interview in a TV studio, Bonham is wearing a great looking brown leather jacket.

Can't believe they asked him about Lori Maddox, I was wincing when I read that.

Most of us are desperate to see more footage. Music & visuals can say a lot more than mere words can. I'm hoping the Bath footage is included in this, the timing sounds spot on.

Exciting.

I too thoroughly enjoy the video. Used to have it on VHS for years before it came out on DVD. I never watch it now but it was brilliantly put together.

Having said that, he's probably banged more women that you or I have had hot dinners.

Me too, Porgie. I know he loved Crime of the Century by Supertramp but I don't know where this thing about them being his 'favourite band' has come from.

There's nothing serious coming from Led Zeppelin or Jimmy Page, unless you're counting trainers & snowboards.

The two books I have specifically about John Bonham are:- A Thunder of Drums - Chris Welch John Bonham, the Powerhouse behind Led Zeppelin - Mick Bonham Was his favourite band Supertramp? I don't recall seeing that anywhere.

That's a great picture, thanks for sharing.

I think a lot of it was late 60s macho, showing off, especially live. Most rock drummers were at it then. There's an interview with one of Bonham's old bandmates in a book I've got, he says Bonham turned up at his house with a copy of the first album & when he played it, the other guy said to him, 'Where are all your fills, John?". When you look back on that album now, it's pretty heavy on the fills as well, so you can only imagine what Bonham's playing was like in the mid 60s.
