It's absolutely idiotic to contend Zep weren't A-listers in the 1970s.

Deep Purple are an English rock band formed in London in 1968. They are considered to be among the pioneers of heavy metal and modern hard rock,[1][2] although their musical style has varied throughout their career.

He does OK but not as well as Kenny Aronoff did with Yes. Ian Paice's version works better to my ears. Is less frenetic in the breaks but still goes for it where the song needs that. Feels like Peterson moves a little too much, and that might take away a bit of his feel. Lots of aggression, not always a good feel.

In general, people on there tend to overplay because they're in a "figure it out and play something that fits" mode rather than a "play for the song" mode.

I'm sure almost all of them would end up toning down their playing if they were to really learn the song.

That very young British black girl was the worst example of it, but n knock on any of them and it's a blast to watch.

Agree. I have really enjoyed those, and it's just fun to see the fairly spontaneous work of fashioning a part to the music. Even better when it's a band and each player is making little adjustments to parts on the fly as a whole piece gets worked up together. That's real magic, which is a bit lost in today's age. Some still do it.

The guy is obviously good but he way overdoes it on this one. I actually thought the John Stamos one was really good. He has some great ideas on that Papa Roach song. He’s a legit drummer
