- In honor of John Bonham's birthday, here is the next vid in my series of How The West Was Won complete covers. This version of Moby Dick was a BEAST! I wanted to play within the thematic ideas and structure of the solo, but improvising within that framework. I'm not playing it note for note - that would be virtually impossible, without seeing his playing/stickings, etc. That said, I follow the form pretty much as it was played, with some variations here and there, and some bits as close as I could get. Bonzo's playing on this version is absolutely phenomenal.
I want to also give a shoutout to Drugan's Drums (note the cool t-shirt). Drugan's is one of my favorite drum shops. They always have the best vintage goodies and they are the coolest guys. Here's a link to their YT. Look them up! Drugan's is in Des Plaines , IL.
Hope you all had a fantastic Memorial Day Weekend!

He lives on though all of us, and your right foot ! Excellent !!!
Thanks, I'm not worthy though. What a monster!!
“George Fludas, George Henry Fludas!” 👏👏take a bow. Outstanding.
Thank you kindly!
Best comment ever
Sei la reincarnazione di John Bonham
My God, man. Bonzo is looking down, smiling.
Happy 73rd, Bonzo. Thanks for doing it up right, George.
Thanks, D
The kit. The playing. The sound. This is incredible video what a cover. Fair play man 👊
BRILLIANT!
I'll just sit back, and take it in. Happy birthday
Outstanding tune on that snare, but the whole kit is tuned spot on. Fantastic George......
This has got to be one of the greatest signatures every written !
11:56 The difference is always in the details. Great!👏👏👏👏👏👏
That's amaziiiing, sounds like Bonham 🤘
You got that Bonham thing down. Excellent solo. Happy 73 Bonzo! RIP...
The work and attention to detail that went into this, words can't describe.
I'm in awe. If I knew where you lived I'd come over and pay you.
Thanks, I appreciate that!!
Absolutley Marvolous and may be the only thing we'll ever see up to the real deal!
Amazing! Simply amazing! Great job!
Oh my, those triplets! An incredible tribute to the G.O.A.T. on his 73rd birthday, bravo George!
The kit sounds amazing all around, but your snare drum is one of the best Ive ever heard. Really fat and has a great decay/crack to it!
Need a video on how he tunes it
@@keith1r there are many on the channel
George’s timing on the rim shots. Freakin’ Anazing!!!!
Those cymbals are EPIC...wow
Godspeed! We may not have Bonzo in the flesh, but at least we have George keeping the spirit alive! Just absolutely wonderful! 👏 🙏👏
Cheers, thanks Rory
I'm truly amazed by your playing George, there is so much more to this then playing Moby Dick, you put your heart and soul into this arrangement and I can feel your joy in the performance. Thank you and happy birthday to the late great JB who I'm sure would be delighted to watch this video.
Thank you Trev!
absolute amazing You are spot on every Time absolutely incredible.
Omg that is so good! You even got the drums tuned perfectly! Wow!! 😆
It absolutely mind-blowing how you got every nuance down. Incredible work.
Thanks!
This is such an incredible, one-of-a-kind resource you’ve given us, George! This is like a dream come true for life-long Bonham fans such as myself.
Amazing. Amazing. I hope someday on your birthday somebody recreates some of your work behind the kit. I smiled for 20 minutes straight during this. Thank you.
As always George, you knocked it out of the park!!! Happy Birthday Bonzo!!!!
Cheers, thank you
As I said before that not many people can play like that
Nobody does it better then George unbelievable, great jazz player as well.👏👏👏👏👏👏👍🏻👍🏻💯bad ass.
Phenominal!! 🥁😎🤎

Mind blowing! I want lessons!!!!!!
Sei un GRANDE!💙🎶
The new Legacy Maples are now officially broken in. Beautiful and Joyous Playing! Thank You!!!
Holy F this is simply incredible! That snare sounds just awesome - as does that huge ride when hit as a crash. George once again delivers. I watched the whole thing! To think Bonzo would bring this nightly for two or three months in a row in nothing short of astounding. Had he lived on through his thirties I’m not sure it would’ve been possible to upkeep this type of energy output. Anyway…my ears are ringin’ A great accompaniment to 5am coffee and at full volume. Thank you guys.
Superb!!
Dynamite! As Jimmie Walker
would say.
Flipping amazing!!!! Wow! Great tribute to Bonzo! George you are a beast! The dynamics, the groove, the snare work, phenomenal!!! I am going to have to watch this about 20 more times. Bravo!!!! You are out of this world amazing!!!!
It's like Bonham is alive again !! George this is incredible ! 😎👍
AWESOME 😀
i played this through the surround sound in my room lol this was shaking crap off my walls for 20 minutes straight
😂👍🏻
Incredible sound.
Honestly the Best drum solo I’ve ever heard in my Freakin’ Life!!! Whooo Hoooo!!!
Well done maestro, and I thought I was a big Bonham fan, you're amazing dude really amazing
Thanks a lot!
You're the guy who just keeps on giving! Absolutely exemplary!
What an amazing thing you did. Absolutely in awe, and so much respect for this. Hats off, friend!
Beautiful job, George! Happy Birthday to rock’s greatest! Thank you so much.
Wonderful G!!!! Got the time spot on too!!
Yeah, I was happily surprised to see that! Thanks T!
Nobody apart from Bonzo himself could have done it any better!
Unreal. THANK YOU!
Love the OG Kester ching-ring! Got one here too.
Thanks ...yeah, I lost a couple jingles while making the vid. 😞 I'll try to reattach with a screw and lock nut.
Great Job ! Who put's a thumbs down? Someone Jealous, that can't play anywhere near this.. Sad...
Thank you, Dan
You're great Drummer Sir!!!! 😊🥁🇵🇭
George, always amazing, so cool to listen too. Agree the best way to cover anything Zeppelin is to get the thematic ideas and structure whether it's bass/keys, guitar, drums, or vocals. After all it seems like that's how they did it.
Happy 73rd Bonzo! You look like you're really having fun playing this, George! Outstanding performance!
Absolutely outstanding George! Great work! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks
Ahhhhhh!!! Killin’ it!!! Yes!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💫⚡️🚀🚀🚀🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼💯💯💯💯💯
Well done sir!
It's amazing how you play this so masterfully!!! Thanks for sharing this wisdom with us!!!! 👏👏👏 (JR-PORTUGAL)
Obrigado! 😁
@@BONHAMOLOGY 👍😁
nobody has ever legitimately recreated Bonzo's live solo like you and managed to add your own flavor . I've yet to find anybody. Would love for you to bring in the kettle drums and do that one that he did live
Don't do it again next year because this is perfection !
Flawless playing !
Very good!
Congratulations!!!
very good solo!
Damn wish my youngest brother could have had you , to play his Les Paul too/with. Y’all would have been on fire. If you get time check him out, B.J. Garris, or Studio 829 on the tube. He didn’t have a lot of heavy electronics etc, but could smoke the Les Paul. Thanks for your skill and dedication.
I needed this George! Thank you! ❤🥁
Great playing George reminds me of when I used sit in your basement as a kid and watch you play for hours
Amazing as always,George 🙏
What a wonderful tribute to the man ❤️
Thank you
Fucking unreal man, that was unbelievable
Absolutely Amazing.......💥💥💥
Amazing!!!!!
I knight thee Sir Drumsalot!
Eye Thank Ewe, kind sir
