John Bonham Style Drum Lick By Alex Ribchester This is a great drum fill idea that I got from Led Zeppelin's drummer, John Bonham. I first heard this fill in the track Black Dog on Led Zeppelin IV. It uses a combination of 16th notes and 32nd note triplets played with the hands and kick drum. When Bonham played this lick, he only used a segment of what is written below. I suggest using this idea, when you are playing at amedium to slow, or half time groove. In the video I play a similar groove to beat from 'When The Levee Breaks'. The fill is a repeated pattern that lasts (in this case) for three 16th notes and therefore lands at different points of the beat, giving it a displaced and syncopated flow. In this first exersise, we are going to play the pattern twice and then make snare hit on the '&' of 2 and 4 become an 8th note. 3 3 3 3 1 E & A 2 E & 3 E & A 4 E A In this idea, we are going to play the pattern four times in a row, taking us to the end of beat 3. In this example I have stuck a group of four single stroke 16th notes at the end to complete beat 4 3 3 3 3 1 E & A 2 E & A 3 E & A 4 E&A Here is an example of playing the pattern twice, adding an extra kick drum to the 'a' of beat 2, and then completeing beats 3 and 4 with a seperate drum fill idea. Have a go at using differnent ideas on beats 3 and 4 to put your own spin on it and make it your own. You could also experiment moving the pattern to various beats and filling in the gaps with other ideas. Have fun! 3 3 3 3 1 E & A 2 E & A 3 E & A 4 E A www.onlinedrummer.com.

The Library of America • Story of the Week From Shake It Up: Great American Writing on Rock and Pop from Elvis to Jay Z (Library of America, 2017), pages 151–65. Originally published in Trips: Rock Life in the Sixties (1973). Copyright © by Ellen Sander. ▼ Ellen Sander Ellen Sander (b. 1944) was The Saturday Review’s rock critic in the mid- to late sixties and also wrote on rock for Vogue, The Realist, Cavalier, The L.A. Free Press, the Sunday New York Times Arts & Leisure section, and many other venues. She is the author of Trips: Rock Life in the Sixties (1973), an important source for those seeking to understand the texture and allure of 1960s rock culture. A unique aspect of that culture was captured in Sander’s piece “The Case of the Cock- Sure Groupies” (1968), a remarkably clear- eyed and nonjudgmental account of one of rock’s less celebrated scenes. After her years of rock writing, Sander worked in various capacities in the software industry, from tech writing to computational linguistics. She then returned to her first love, poetry; most recently she served as the Poet Laure- ate of Belfast, Maine (2013–2014). Several collections of her rock journalism are available as Kindle ebooks. ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ Inside the Cages of the Zoo Some years later, a group called Led Zeppelin came to America to make it, taking a highly calculated risk.

A Tribute to Led Zeppelin from Hell's Kitchen Liner Notes
Led Blimpie: A Tribute to Led Zeppelin from Hell’s Kitchen Liner Notes Originally begun as a 3 song demo, this project evolved into a full-on research project to discover the recording styles used to capture Zeppelin's original tracks. Sifting through over 3 decades of interviews, finding the gems where Page revealed his approach, the band enrolled in “Zeppelin University” and received their doctorate in “Jimmy Page's Recording Techniques”. The result is their thesis, an album entitled: A Tribute to Led Zeppelin from Hell's Kitchen. The physical CD and digipack are adorned with original Led Blimpie artwork that parodies the iconic Zeppelin imagery. "This was one of the most challenging projects I've ever had as a producer/engineer...think of it; to create an accurate reproduction of Jimmy Page's late 60's/early 70's analog productions using modern recording gear in my small project studio. Hats off to the boys in the band and to everyone involved.. Enjoy!" -Freddie Katz Co-Producer/Engineer Following is a track-by-track telling of how it all came together by Co-Producer and Led Blimpie guitarist, Thor Fields. Black Dog -originally from Led Zeppelin IV The guitar tone on this particular track has a very distinct sound. The left guitar was played live with the band through a Marshall JCM 800 half stack with 4X12's, while the right and middle (overdubbed) guitars went straight into the mic channel of the mixing board and then into two compressors in series. For the Leslie sounds on the solo, we used the Neo Instruments “Ventilator" in stereo (outputting to two amps).

When the Levee Breaks Chords
Music resources from www.traditionalmusic.co.uk When The Levee Breaks chords (for acoustic guitar an oxymoron?) Led Zeppelin 1970 (Kansas Joe McCoy & Memphis Minnie 1929) Arguably, one of the finest recordings ever mixing the blues with heavy metal rock. About the great Mississippi flood of 1927. Very hard to accurately duplicate because of the heavy amount of studio recording, echo harmonica & special effects. E7* = G string 1st fret + A string 2nd fret (2 finger E7 chord) E7** = E chord + B string 3rd fret (4 finger E7 chord) E chord Repeatedly strum E7*/E/E7**/E7* Play around with different combinations for the best effect, deemphasizing the high E string and emphasizing the low E string Capo I E7*/E/E7**/E7* 18x C D E7*/E 4x C D E7*/E 4x E7* E E7** E If it keeps on raining, levee's goin' to break, 2x E7* E E7** E When the levee breaks I'll have no place to stay.

Rethinking the Law on Corporate Manslaughter to Better Reflect the Artificial Legal Existence of Corporations
Plymouth Law and Criminal Justice Review (2019) ARE CORPORATIONS FREE TO KILL? RETHINKING THE LAW ON CORPORATE MANSLAUGHTER TO BETTER REFLECT THE ARTIFICIAL LEGAL EXISTENCE OF CORPORATIONS 1 Lucy Hooper Abstract This year, 2018, marks the 10 year anniversary of the implementation of the Corporate Manslaughter and Corporate Homicide Act 2007. It is, therefore, an appropriate time to review its effectiveness and consider whether the Act has achieved what it set out to. Its introduction was a parliamentary attempt to address the key defects’2 under the previous identification doctrine, where a company’s liability was dependant on gross negligent manslaughter being sought in the relevant directing mind and will. This article will highlight the inadequacies of the former regime and review to what extent the 2007 Act has resolved them. Importantly, it references the recent Grenfell Tower disaster, which, if corporate manslaughter charges are pursued, will be the Act’s biggest and most public challenge to date. Keywords: corporate manslaughter, Corporate Manslaughter and Corporate Homicide Act 2007, gross negligent manslaughter Introduction Companies, as a result of Salomon3, are ‘distinct and independent’4 entities separate from their members. However, in reality, ‘corporations have no consciences, no beliefs, no feelings, no thoughts, no desires’ and merely ‘help structure and facilitate the activities of human beings’. 5 Consequently, under the original common law models, corporate criminal liability had to be found in individuals and then ‘attributed’ to the company. Attribution in the UK, commonly takes two forms. The first, vicarious liability, imposes liability on corporations ‘for the criminal acts of employees…acting within the scope of their employment’.6 It is, ‘wholly derivative’.7 While the principle is easily applied, ‘a corporation is not…so abstract, impalpable 1 Lucy graduated with a first class LLB honours and was awarded the Womble Bond Dickinson prize for the best student undertaking commercial law.

On “The Battle of Evermore” by Led Zeppelin
TR 11 On “The Battle of Evermore” by Led Zeppelin Douglas Menagh “The whole idea of music, from the beginning of time, was for people to be happy.” —Robert Plant The last time I was with my dad—before he was hospitalized and passed—was at his Led Zeppelin place in Peter Cooper Village in the spring of 2013. I stood there, waiting for him outside in a quad of buildings on a sunny afternoon. A cool breeze blew through the trees as “The Battle of Evermore” adults accompanied children on paths. My father was always good around kids, especially Untitled / Runes / ZoSo / IV to me and my sister Nancy when we were little. It made me happy to know that he was 11/1971 somewhere peaceful, where he could remember happy times with his own family. That distracted me from my own nervousness at reuniting with him after a period of Atlantic estrangement. It wasn’t hard to tell from my father’s walk that it was him passing through the entrance archway into his community. He always had a familiar gait, and I was happy to see it again. In our recent chats, he sounded like the good man that was my father, not the person he had been all those years. He walked around with an oxygen tank, which I had heard about from my mom and sister, who were both on speaking terms with him by then. He didn’t look all bad though. His hair still looked wavy and silvery. Mostly, I was glad to see him and break bread.

My colleague and fellow scribe Tony Wilson had secured the precious black vinyl LP and dropped it onto the turntable, awaiting my reaction. We were immediately transfixed by the brash, bold sounds that fought their way out of the lo- fi speakers – Robert Plant’s screaming vocals, the eerie Hammond organ sounds of John Paul Jones, and Jimmy Page’s supreme guitar mastery. But amid the kaleidoscope of impressions, the drums were the primary element that set pulses racing. We marveled at the sheer audacity, the sense of authority, the spatial awareness present on every track. Within moments, John Bonham’s cataclysmic bass drum triplets and roaring snare rolls had signaled a new era of rock drumming. The first time I saw Bonham up close was in December 1968, at The Marquee Club on Soho’s Wardour Street. While The Marquee has long held a mythical status in the rich history of the London rock scene – hosting early appearances by such legendary bands as The Who and The Rolling Stones – it was actually a dark and rather cramped facility with a tiny stage that fronted an even stuffier dressing room.
