Well everyone is entitled to their opinion and that's fine. Canada's sweethearts live an hours drive away, that being the Tragically Hip, and I honestly can't name a worse band.

With Bonham though, people misjudged his talent for raw verocity and as a result was labelled a heavy drummer which he was, but also missed the musicianship in the fray. If you listen closely enough you will not only hear different motifs in each fill but also a texture that was personalized and distinct in each beat he played. As a pro musician, these understated rhythms and textures are clear as day, and I smile at greatness much like I do all competant musicians from all genres of music and thank my lucky stars.
