One-time LED ZEPPELIN drummer and son of Zep drum legend John Bonham has told Darryl Sterdan from the QMI Agency that one song on the upcoming CD from his band, BLACK COUNTRY COMMUNION, dates back to his 2008 rehearsals with guitarist Jimmy Page and bassist John Paul Jones.
"There's a song that started off as an idea that I worked on with (them), so I was happy to finish it off with this band and have it come out," the 44-year-old drummer says. "It's called 'Save Me'. You'll notice it in the riff. You'll hear a slight Zepesque riff... it's got a definite feel to it."
Bonham rehearsed with Page and Jones for several months after the band's 2007 reunion concert in London - but the project fell apart after singer ROBERT PLANT declined to participate and they were unable to find a way forward.
Black Country Communion - the band featuring Bonham, vocalist/bassist Glenn Hughes (DEEP PURPLE, BLACK SABBATH, TRAPEZE), Derek Sherinian (DREAM THEATER) and blues rock guitarist JOE BONAMASSA - will release their sophomore album simply titled 2 on June 14th in North America on the J&R Adventures label.
The album tracklisting is as follows:
'The Outsider'
'Man In The Middle'
'I Can See Your Spirit'
'The Battle For Hadrian’s Wall'
'Save Me'
'Cold'
'Smokestack Woman'
'Faithless'
'An Ordinary Son'
'Little Secret'
'Crossfire'
'Crawl'
