John 'Bonzo' Bonham, drummer for Led Zeppelin, performs at the Los Angeles Forum, June 1973.
This photograph was the basis for a bronze sculpture commissioned by John Bonham's family in Worcester, UK, as a memorial on his 70th birthday, May 31, 2018. From the photo, the artist Mark Richards was able to replicate the pure energy, raw passion and lively spirit of the famed drummer.
