1963

Learnt to play drums with his bare hands while as a member of the Blue Star Trio in 1963. He replaced Bill Harvey, a jazz drummer, who taught him techniques on how to do it without injuring his fists.

1969

John Bonham is still regularly voted in polls as the greatest and most influential rock drummer of all time, an opinion which has also been expressed by the likes of Roger Taylor of Queen, Dave Grohl of Nirvana and Chad Smith of the Red Hot Chili Peppers. He started playing drums at the age of five using a makeshift kit and later progressed to real drums. His influences included great American jazz drummers such as Gene Krupa and Buddy Rich. He played in a series of bands and formed an association with Robert Plant through Band of Joy, who combined blues, psychedelics and extended musical workouts. According to Plant: "Bonzo was totally and absolutely devoted to getting it right. Everything that he listened to he could go beyond, not only could he recreate it but he could take it somewhere new. He knew that he was a powerhouse among drummers. . . we seemed to have a great affinity for each other. "Although Bonham and Plant went their separate ways after Band of Joy, they reunited in The Yardbirds, which already featured Jimmy Page. John Paul Jones joined and this led to the formation of Led Zeppelin, who released their first album in 1969.

1970

They went on to become the biggest rock band of the 1970s, achieving extraordinary success in the United States in particular.

1980

According to Page, the band could not have continued without him, he was so integral to their sound.
