LED ZEPPELIN

By 1968, John had established a strong reputation for

his drumming with musicians and bands from Redditch

and across the West Midlands. With his power, stamina,

technique, and stage presence, John was in demand

when he received an offer to join a new group on the

recommendation of his old band mate Robert Plant.

That band would become LED ZEPPELIN.

"As soon as I heard John

Bonham play", bassist John
Paul Jones recalled, "I
knew this was going to be

great ... We locked together
as a team immediately"
