  1. I'd say technique wise Ian Paice would school John Bonham, a lot of drummers would actually. What made john special was just the way he played so powerfully even listening to him play a simple straight eights on high-hat with kick on 1 and 3 and snare on 2 and 4 makes me wanna cry tears of joy. No drummer has ever matched that sort of effect. John had great limb independence and a great right foot and he knew how to make a good sound.
  2. I'm willing to bet Jason is more than capable of play the doubles JHB used to do between toms and bass drum with just one foot, hell even I can. However, I doubt he's capable of doing it with the same volume on each hit that JHB used to do, I'm willing to bet that it's more of a comfort thing than anything. The only thing I don't like about it is that with double bass you have less control of the high-hat and JHB always used to do eight notes keeping time on the high-hat and in Good-time Bad-times it was especially prominent, listening to Jason does make me miss that sound. Its part of what set John apart from the rest of the pack. I have to say though that the way Jason plays with such huge strokes and such a huge sound is very reminiscent of Bonzo. Jason also plays with much better posture than John which will probably make some of you on here wanna hunt me down, but its true, john usually looked like he was about to break his spine in two...
