Bonzo, Pre-Zep !! This is some very rare audio of Tim Rose from an alleged BBC performance on John Peel's show. The date is given as recorded on July 1, 1968 and broadcast on July 7. As far as I know, there is no other known recording of Bonzo with Tim Rose, nor are there any photos that I could find of Bonzo playing with Tim Rose. Apparently he only played with him for a brief time in mid 1968. There is a video here on YouTube that is also from BBC broadcasts of Tim Rose, but that does not sound like Bonzo on drums, to me. This recording however is unquestionably Bonzo, IMO. Here is a link to the website where I found it, and the complete audio.

Tim Rose - In Session - 1968 - Past Daily Soundbooth – Past Daily: A Sound Archive of News, History, Music

4:33 - "Good Times Bad Times." (LOL)

Great find. Thanks for sharing.

A few clippings from Melody Maker (second one mentions a Bonham solo) (July 6th, 13th and 20th, 1968).

Also, re the Tim Rose appearance on Top Gear (July 1st, 1968), although Dougie Wright is listed as the drummer (source), that sure does sound like it could be Bonzo. Maybe it's just wishful thinking. 

Have a listen here.

Track 1 - Roanoke: drumming with his hands (1:55)

Track 2 - Foggy Mountain Breakdown On Rye With Mustard: multiple drum rolls (e.g. 4:34 & 5:00-5:20)

Track 3 - I Guess It's Over: drum rolls throughout [triplets?] (e.g. 6:40, 7:00, 8:16, 8:20 ...)

Track 4 - Long Haired Boy: multiple rolls throughout but harder to make out (e.g. 11:00)

My apologies for re-posting a link that was already posted about 4 years ago.
