The passing of John Bonham... Let's just put it... Before we say, 'the passing of John Bonham,' the introduction of John Bonham on the first album and 'Good Times Bad Times,' it changes drumming overnight.

Jimmy Page

Nobody could have predicted the effect of John Bonham's drum introduction on 'Good Times, Bad Times,' because no matter what he'd played in before, he'd never had the chance to flex his muscles and play like John Bonham.

Jimmy Page

John Bonham, probably the greatest drummer ever - all of us wanted to play drums like him.

Vinnie Paul

It was an extraordinary connection, the synergy within the band. There was an area of ESP between Robert Plant, John Paul Jones, John Bonham, and myself.

Jimmy Page

It is hard to have your own identity when you dad is John Bonham of Led Zeppelin, but I accept and love the fact of who my dad is.

Jason Bonham

There is no way I would play guitar like a tour de force like I did in Led Zeppelin. John Bonham, phenomenal drummer, young man with his technique, but do you think he would ever have the opportunity to play like that in another band? Of course he hadn't.

Jimmy Page

I loved the [English] countryside. I went to John Bonham's grave.

Bill Burr

My names John Bonham, I'm a drummer and I'm potty about cars.

John Bonham

If you want to strive toward something, just listen to John Bonham.

Bill Ward

John Bonham was probably the most influential in terms of playing style and timing.

Tommy Lee

From meeting Robert Plant, John Bonham, and John Paul Jones, teaming up, rehearsing, playing selected gigs outside of Britain, coming back into Olympic Studios to record the first album, and then going to America, which we crack open like a nut with the debut record - all that happened, literally, within months.

Jimmy Page

There will be a Led Zeppelin as long as there's a Jimmy Page, John Bonham, John Paul Jones and Robert Plant. This isn't a nostalgia band playing the hits forever. If anything ever happened and somebody left - which I really can't see happening - I don't think we'd bother to carry on. The magic for me is as it is now.

Jimmy Page

John Bonham was a good friend of mine. I knew him a bit as a kid. I hung out with him quite a lot.
