Thank you for making it so clear!! It is a real talent in and of itself to
be able to explain things in a way that makes it easy for others to “get
it”! You have great empathy.

Richard Bonfils says:

Great Job, Andy… Thanks!

Mark Woodhouse says:

Fred Ferriland says:

Thanks for the video it really helped, however im still having trouble with
the rapid base drum(im young), best keep practicing! thanks

rhino4943 says:

yea

str8drum says:

Andy, could you do a cover of good times bad times

VAN LAYKNIER says:

yes it helped me a lot! now to practice that damn ghost note! Thank you
very much for sharing man!

Ryan Johnson says:

One other quick comment/question. Is it possible that the ghost note could
be from Bonham hitting the high hat with a 1/16 instead of the snare? When
I listen to the original song, even slowed down, there doesn’t seem to be
any sonic difference between the sound of the high hat and the ghost note?
The snare note however sounds “sonic-ally” different? And is there any
known film showing him actually, clearly playing the drums on this song
where you can see everything he is hitting exactly?

Slaytallica says:

Great tutorial… and nice shirt… Also that’s what I really love about
music / drums, you can be giving a Zeppelin tutorial but be sporting a
Slayer shirt, lol

Guitar Tech says:

Hell the one instrument I can’t play. Props to all of you.

Michael Cassella says:

Very nice Andy…

This is one of the easiest bonham songs to play but Bonham makes it sound
so good. Such a legendary drummer

Thanks for breaking it down, that is a good technique. I was trying to play
this the other day and could not get it right, this will help me get it
down.

but couldnt see it on the vid.

Great tutorial, straight to the point and no bullshit. Cheers dude!

George Hulseman says:

This is just an exceptional video. Breaking it down like that with the drum
notation really helped me. I still haven’t quite got the ghost snare yet,
but I will eventually. Thanks so much for posting.

Bob phil says:

Awesomeness! alot easier than I imagined. Cool Video.

Andy Jones says:

Thanks bud. Maybe you should start now. 🙂

BBEDrummerAK says:

..the video I saw did have a double pedal, but his left foot was planted on
that hi-hat pedal, and his right foot was doing the work, like he’s showing
in this video. so I don’t know what video you watched.

Andy Jones says:

Thank you. I’m not a drum teacher, but maybe I should rethink that. We’ll
see how well my next few instructional videos do. 🙂

Andy Jones says:

No, I dont. I have a habit of just playing my left foot on the floor, not
the left pedal.

jeffsnuk says:

kick ass!

TheNegants says:

Thank you ! This video really helped me alot.

Joe Rico says:
