Date of Birth: May 31, 1948
Date of Death: September 23, 1980
Cause of Death: Choked on his own vomit after an all night drinking binge.
Final Resting Place: Rushock Parish Church, near Kidderminster,
Worcestershire, England.
Claim to Fame: Drummer for heavy rock pioneers Led Zeppelin. His frantic
and pounding drumming style made them a heavier band. Led Zeppelin broke
up because of 'Bonzo's death, they just couldn't go on without him. Who
knows where Led Zep would have gone in the 80s had Bonham lived. Check
out his drum solo 'Moby Dick' on the the double live Led Zep album 'The
Song Remains The Same'.
