Jason killed it in the Led Zeppelin Celebration Day concert
iconic
Jason is a fantastic drummer himself
John Bonham killed it deader.
Plant never got over the loss of John Bonham.
And Jimmy Page never got over the end of Led Zeppelin.
gar y You couldn’t be more right
what do you mean by the 2nd sentence ?
yes can you explain the second sentence and why you say it?
True--Jimmy, Jason and John Paul Jones wanted to keep Zep going but sadly Plant kept killing it..His choice but I think they should have restarted the band after the O2 show
Well said...
I love the way Led Zeppelin always respects the memory of John Bonham! They could have made millions upon millions doing reunion tours but they don't!
It shouldn't have been about the money, I'm pretty sure that they have that covered! But they could've done a few or at least one good tour FOR THE FANS! Plant has his own agenda thou...
@@kensalazar5066 they did. Back in the late 90's when Plant n Page did an album then toured. The show was almost entirely Led Zeppelin songs. The audiences loved it.
Then Page does a tour with the Black Crows. Again, almost all Zep. So if they keep doing that, it never ends. Every few yrs. It's the make believe Zep show 4 fans that never got a chance 2 see the real thing.
No, then the whole being of integrity goes out the window. Let's just forget about John Bonham. No.
@@michaelotera7395 Why was JPJ not on the Page Plant tours? It was like 10 years long
Remember, back in the day Robert was salaried but now how the tables have turned
To be fair, Jimmy’s tried to get the others together but Robert won’t play ball.
John was really a once in a lifetime drummer
Once in a lifetime of the universe. You'll never get another Bonham.
I remember a quote that said, 'Bonham was a machine powered by flywheels and pistons. You didn't feed this man, you STOKED him.'
John was the best! I ordered myself a John Bonham shirt🔥
@@p0llenp0ny His Son does a great job.
There’ll never be another with THAT groove and feel. Epic, epic drummer
I JUST MET Robert Plant a couple hours ago! Spoke to him for 5 minutes, and one of the things he spoke of the most was Bonham. He was still very sad that his great friend had died. Told me they had erected a monument to Bonham in Birmingham, and I should check it out. He has tremendous respect for Bonham.
It is in Redditch, here to be precise...6-10 Market Pl, Redditch B98 8AA, UK
Gotta love Robert Plant for sticking to the statement. There will never be another Led Zeppelin. I'm so happy to have been alive on Earth during their reign.
Luckily, they didn't go the "Journey" route and start hiring a bunch of sound alike singers.
Me too✌️
Robert Plant was right. Losing John Bonham was such a tragic loss.
Led Zeppelin stepped down with integrity-dignity. Pretty admirable after all these years. Bonzo was & still is irreplaceable.
Nobody could replace anyone in Zeppelin.
Crazy that Jason is so much older now than his dad John was when he died.....
....yes Howard was an insensitive jackass
Jason Bonham turned into a really good guy. He didn’t try to get out of his Dads shadow, he embraced it! John Bonham was the greatest drummer ever!
Perhaps he should have.
I've seen Jason's Led Zeppelin Evening three times -- the band is officially endorsed by the three survivors -- and it's as close as you're ever going to see. Check them out if you get a chance.@@hammill444
Can’t imagine how tough it was for Plant to break the news about John’s passing to Jason, whew...
and just a few years after losing his own son.
Hagar is 71, Howard 65, Jason 52 and Mikie 64...I am 56 myself and even I can't believe how well all of these dudes have aged..Such talent !
John Bonham was only alive another 6 months after the Genesis Duke album was released. What a huge loss for the world, but most of all for his young son.
The 2007 Led Zeppelin show with Jason on drums was amazing. John Bonhams legacy will stand the test of time.
No Howard, John taught Jason to play drums after he died.
.. .yes Howard was an insensitive jackass
25 September 1980 Day the music died for me. God Bless You Jason. Your Dad has to be proud of You..
GI Joe Zeppelin so true. 1980 was the year of great loss. John Bonham, Bon Scott and John Lennon.
I Agree
Damnit i didnt know he died on my bday but 5 years earlier well i know what my next bday song will be
Lovely story of Robert tearing up...he really loved John...
He was probably seeing John through Jason, hence the emotion...😢
The Kennedy Center honors, Heart was amazing doing Stairway!
Dan McFarland I think I have watched that video a dozen times already. It's freaking outstanding
It was phenomenal
Jason is an absolute DUDE. So glad he got his life straightened out and has been a part of so many excellent projects over the years.
Jason Bonham is probably one of the best drummers on the Planet and carries John Bonham in his heart!! Just to watch Jason Drum is an experience, so wonderful and just mesmerising!!
And such a nice guy!
He's not one of the best drummers on the planet is he.
@@mycore3557 As Rock drummers go, I think Jason ranks up there pretty well.
@mycore3557 Yes he is. Sammy Hagar said he is the best drummer he has ever played with.
"Fool in the rain" !! Enough said... nobody on earth plays it like his father did..
Glad to know he’s carrying on the legacy of his late dad. Well done Jason
Robert chooses to do his own thing and I have tremendous respect for him because of this. He wants to keep moving forward and trying new things. No two of his solo albums sound alike.
Saw Jason with Healing Sixes at a small bar in South Bend Indiana, had a beer and talked with him!!! He’s SO humble and such a wonderful man. Love this dude!!!
He did his dad proud at the Kennedy Center.
Listening to Jason talk about Robert Plant and His father brings tears to my eyes
I remember where I was when I heard Bonzo had died. I’ll never forget it. Same with Elvis and Gord Downie of The Hip. Cheers from Canada.
Who is Gord Downie?
I feel you brother. 🤘🇨🇦
I remember when Elvis died.
I was a big fan of his because of my Mom. I had a poster of Elvis and wanted him to autograph it, so I rolled up a poster of his, put his address on the tube, and took it to the mailbox where the mailman actually took it from my hand.
When I got home a minute or two after I handed the poster off to the mailman, my Mom told me it was just reported Elvis had died. What are the odds?!
I never got that poster back, either.
@@reg5381 He was the singer of the tragically hip.. it's very good Canadian band...Very well known in Canada...
Crush Power sad day when Gord died.
Hey Stern,...he was not crying..he was showing amazing emotion and love.
Rest in peace to the greatest drummer ever, John Bonham.
You can hear the sadness in his voice when he speaks about his Pop which is natural for someone who loved their father or mother (IMO)
Jason played with Led Zep in London like a drum King. Dad's proud Jason. Amen
John Bonham the best ever
I really feel for Jason, a fine musician who, just for his last name, is expected to play like his father. It is not any musician’s job to sound like or emulate any other. His dad had otherworldly skills at the drumset, and a style so perfectly crafted it will never be duplicated. If Jason’s last name was Smith, he would be a very busy drummer, working at perhaps a slightly lower pay grade, but receiving the respect he is due without all the hype.
Led Zep Kennedy Center honours makes me cry every time. Jason was amazing 👌
Honestly, not to take anything from Jason, he does his dad proud, but this segment is one of the reasons I love Stern.
Thanks for posting this.
Peter K I listened to this whole interview twice the other day. Stern is the best interviewer. Hands down. He gets in and asks awesome questions that demand honest answers. No fluff pieces. He got deep into the dad questions as well as the Van Halen stuff.
Phil Collins knew Bonham *before* LZ was even around? That's awesome.
Led Zeppelin will alway be the best band ever ! Nuff said ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
The London reunion concert with Jason was untouchable. The best way for Zep to go out. No more final tours like the only in it for the money bands. Stones Kiss, who and on....
Thanks JB. Your father is smiling.
I was just listening to Zeppelin's first three albums today and reminiscing about seeing them at Knebworth in 79. As the English say, it was magic because the concert had so many bands playing all day long and then Zeppelin came on as it got dark. I heard they weren't happy with their performance but I heard nothing but the roar of the 100,000+ audience! A reunion tour isn't necessary. How do you ever top Everest? Just amazing musicians and I thought to myself after listening to just their first three albums, this was only the beginning!
Jason you do a great job follow your passion
🙏❤
I am happy to see Jason Bonham is living a good life. How hard it must have been to lose your father at a young age. Robert Plant always kept an eye on Jason.
Zakk Blake
We miss your Dad and love you Jason.
Thanks Bonzo...👍💖
Saw Jason's led zeppelin experience it was awesome and emotional. First class guy Jason and a hell of a drummer.
Awesome guy. Thankful he has carried that legacy torch on.
I've seen Jason Bonham live, WOW! absolutely amazing!
Literally one week after I purchased my first drum kit ( my Ludwig 26, 14,16,18in) Bonham set up Bonzo died. Wish I was old enough to see him live back in the day..
Super important part of our culture. God bless all involved.
Great interview. That's what I love about Howard. It's truly an inside the ropes interview every time.
Howard changed and became incredible at interviews. Maybe the best.
Page, Plant and Jones have done a significantly better job of preserving the legacy of Zep. I think Plant is very smart to not carry on doing Zep because there is only one way to go...and that's down.
I can’t get over Sammy being 71. Looks and sounds great
All four of Zeppelins members were incredible in their own way and together their magic was 10 times greater than any one of them by themself and that was what was so special about Zeppelin and that's why Robert was adamant about never continuing without John and it would be good if Howard would give them all credit for what they did because in the past he had bashed them all as being one of the biggest rip-offs and thieves of other people's music of all time which I think if Howard really understood everything they did he would realize that that was really not right to categorize them like that. When they started out they did alot of copies simply because they had to come up with an album right away and they were only together for a month or two so the thing is as the band progressed they wrote more and more of their own material and that's how almost all bands went on as they progressed so to bash them like that as he did when that Stairway to Heaven issue came out about how Page took that riff and turned it into one of the greatest anthems in rock history I think that was a bit unfair and this is what I tell everybody you can take any of those original songs from the original artist and play them side-by-side with the Zeppelin version and I would say 99.9% of people would never listen to the original version again so yes they should have given credit a little earlier and all that sort of thing but the real villains with all of that stuff in my opinion were the record companies who literally raped those black artists and left them hanging out to dry without any royalties at all for their music so in a way Zeppelin did them all of favor because ironically they probably made more money through Zeppelin paying them what they deserved then their own record labels possibly... Anyways, Jason is an awesome guy and his father would be very proud of him continuing his legacy like this he's one of the few children of rock stars that actually grew up to be a hell of a good person and seems so grounded with a good head on his shoulders...a real chip off the old block Jason is in character as well as a great artist himself. Peace, Bob M.
The apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Both John and Jason are beyond the curve when it comes to greatness. It's hard to believe that Jason is 20 years older than his father was when he died. What a trip man.
as a drummer, i can’t describe the impact this mans father had on my life, i just recently got a tattoo of the three interlocking rings on my wrist
I taught myself to play drums to guys like Bonham, Peart, Steve Smith and many others. Just mull over that heavy beat from When the Levee Breaks and how do you not smile. And what drummer doesn't love to groove to Fool in the Rain??? Man, the influence that dude had on me will die with me.
I can appreciate what Jason Bonham has matured to over the decades, as I was starting out in life, as a peer of our common generation.
He's a respectable man and a great drummer.
Salute
Jason Bonham
Thanking Howard Stern for keeping us in the world
Very good to know that we can still find it these days
Something like this
Howard went right to the question I was curious about - The Kennedy Center Honors. Great job.
"Before your Dad died, did he teach you how to play the drums?" No Howard, he taught me after he died.
Stern knows nothing
🤣
Led Zeppelin was the greatest band EVER!!! Jason has done his father John justice, evern since Kingdom Come.
Jason is a stand up man! And very talented. I saw them do the Led Zeppelin Experience at the Hard Rock. It was absolutely fantastic. It's like listening to Zep only with a different Jason Flair. The amps to the guitars, the mellotron, they had everything. thanks Howard and Jason for the interview. You are already an icon.
JB is the only person who could fill in for John Henry Bonham and do it with authenticity and soul. Like Slide guitar player Derrick Trucks who played Duane Allmans slide parts in the Allman Brothers Band, Jasons Drum parts are perfect and spot on. Its All in the family and its Amazing how musical gifts some times run in the family.
RIP Bonham, a man on fire
I remember growing up, I always thought Led Zeppelin “broke up” because of drama between the band. I’m young and wasn’t even born when they were big. Anyway, now I know they chose to stop playing after Bonzo died, it’s completely understandable but heartbreaking. I’m getting into the band now and every time I watch any Led Zeppelin related, I’m on the verge of tears. The closest comparison I have to relate to, is the day Prince died. Time stood still and there was a universal shift, nothing has been the same since.
As phenomenal as he was, I wish John Bonham could have left the band, he loved it but hated touring. His kids meant the world to him and I wish he could’ve been around for them.
Jason is excellent. Catch him if you can.
I don't know if Jason is as good as his dad but his father taught him very well and can mimic much of his dad's work note for note!
I met your Dad in Vancouver B.C. In the 70s when when Led Zeppelin played there.
That was the best Howard. That short discussion with Jason answered every question I have ever had about Zeppelin and John. Thank you, and by the way, love your show for over 30 yrs, signed up on day one of Sirrius for you. I ain't suckin' up just I never get ta call in. You and Robin and Fred, well, y'all are just the best. Peace Out and Fish On my brother
Jason Bonham and Sammy Hagar playing together wow.
And Michael Anthony.
Sheesh I teared up as well just hearing this!
who else better to fill Bonhams shoes then his son??? he plays great. John be proud
Amazing group and respect to Jason what a needless loss for everyone :((
People to this day still do not understand how much of a loss Bonzo was to Robert Plant. There is no Led Zeppelin without John Bonham. The one off was just a conjuring up of some of their old magic. One last spell from the greatest band that has ever played rock and rock.
I love Black Country Communion 🤘🏻 fantastic band
Jester Man Agreed!
He was amazing with Foreigner!! Jason rules! Phil Collins rules (the story is amazing here) and John Bonham rules too !
Sounds like John Bonham as well
I'm so glad Jason cleared the air about Bonham hitting hard. Bonham tuned his drums a certain way and his technicians knew how to record the space he would fill up acoustically to make his drums sound huge. It's fascinating.
It's all in the [wrist], Happy.
If you watch the video on TH-cam of Jeff Ocheltree, Bonham’s last Drum tech, he squashes that theory as well that he was a very heavy hitter. He goes over his technique, the size sticks, and tuning that gave Bonham his signature sound. Very interesting stuff!
THEY'RE ALL MISSED AND GREATFUL FOR ALL THE TUNES.
AWESOME JOB JASON
Even Great Jazz Drummers, comment about The Greatness of John Bonham.
Am I the only one who wishes that Jason would put BONHAM back together. Damn that was a good band.
well, lets be fair here, jasons "toy kit" was still a ludwig vistalite that john had ludwig make for him.
Jason, thanks for keeping the legacy going!
It's not so much that John was a "heavy hitter" as much as he had a lot of snap to his playing. He knew how to hit hard, but light if that makes sense? Maybe you have to be a drummer to understand what I'm saying. You didn't see John breaking heads and cymbals all over the place. He really knew how to swing correctly.
One listen to Fool in the Rain tells you how much swing and feel he had.
Can speak as a bassist, a drummer "heavy hitting" by itself is meaningless. Bonham had power, but it was just the gasoline for everything else that made up the car. Skill, technique, and a great ear were what he really had.
MY GOD PLEASE ; Robert, Jimmy, John Paul, and Jason ... REUNITE ONE MORE TIME !!! JUST ONE MORE.... All of you together can make happy a lot of people in these days....
As much as it hurts to lose the music that could have been, the decision to avoid reforming another incarnation = best possible decision.
I love how they remain flawlessly loyal to Bonzo. It's right on so many levels.
What a great interview. Love you Jason! ✌️❤️
John Bonham could do things with one foot peddle, todays drummers can`t do with two! Don`t take my word for it listen to some of there tracks. He was A BEAST on drums!
What a great interview and a great Legacy John Bonham left behind with his son Jason! I definitely respect both of them as Great Drummers ! Kudos to John and Jason Bonham!
Sammy Hagar: "Phil is a bad mother fucker" lmao ❤️
I play only 3 songs on drums. Song Remains The Same. Achilles Last Stand. When The Levee Breaks. I mastered them by ear then sold my drumset. Thank you John Bonham.
If Bill Burr has not seen this already, someone make sure he does, please.
Got my Bonham sized drum kit set up in the house. Heck knows how I've never had a noise complaint. He's one of the most important drummers of our time. I wish I could have seen Zeppelin live and met John.
Phils an underrated drummer
I think he’s the only guy who can play Bonzo’s parts note-for-note.
Seeing the resemblance of Bonzo in his face.
Moby Dick is still the single greatest drum song I’ve ever heard RIP Bonham
Space Truckin is all I can even begin to say/recall...
@FL STUDIO : Moby Dick is more a drum solo than a proper song. For my taste, Achilles Last Stand has the best drums in a proper song from Zeppelin.
For me, Jason is fully a part of the legend that is Led Zeppelin. God, I miss that band.
Damn his voice sounds just like his dads. Right before the ocean
Beautiful story !!!
BonJo was the soul of Led Zeppelin! RIP, great man!
I've seen Jason's Led Zeppelin Evening three times -- the band is officially endorsed by the three survivors -- and it's as close to the original as you're ever going to see. Check them out if you get a chance.
I'm a big critic of Howard because I love Jackie so much but this is real good! Well done!
