This Is The When the Levee Breaks Drum Breakdown
Welcome to the When the Levee Breaks drum breakdown. Here we will learn how to play When the Levee Breaks on the drums.
You are probably familiar with this song because it is a classic Led Zeppelin song and one of John Bonham’s iconic drum beats.
Much has been said about the amazing drum sound and how it was achieved at Headley Grange with the drums at the bottom of a stairwell and some help from Jimmy Page’s Binson Echorec echo unit.
But here we are going to learn each drum beat and fill from the song so you can play it on a standard drum kit without any stairwells or echo units.
You will get full video breakdowns for each part of the song as well as full notation for the whole song.
