How to play the intro and main groove from Led Zeppelin’s Rock And Roll on drums.

Absolute classic drum intro by one of my all-time favourite drummers John Bonham!

There's a great, free drum transcription (as usual!) by The Drum Ninja, who seems to me to produce the best free drum scores on the internet: [ Ссылка ]

And just in case you were still labouring under the illusion that there's anything new in music, check out the intro to Little Richard's version of "Keep A Knockin'", released some 15 years earlier, which appears to have been an inspiration for this intro: [ Ссылка ]

Have fun and please let me know if any questions :)

Mike Barnes Drums Amazon Shop


I now have an Amazon store featuring all the gear, books etc you see here in these videos, and that I use myself on gigs/in the studio and recommend. It doesn’t cost any more to buy from this store than it does from regular Amazon, but you’d be supporting this channel by doing so, which would be very much appreciated!:
