The Disregard of Timekeeping - Bonham

This is an album that I bought back when it was new in 1989 probably for the same reasons that most hard rock fans bought it back then. The legacy of the band's namesake. The drummer here is Jason Bonham, son of the late Led Zeppelin drummer John Bonham. The amusing thing is that the vocalist on this album sounds an awful lot like Robert Plant. Despite that, it doesn't sound like Zeppelin totally. Zep had this "sound" to it that Bonham doesn't. Still, it's hard to listen to this knowing who is in it and not think of the Zep heritage.

That said, the music is good on it's own - "Wait for You" was the big single at the time (and a video for this can still be seen from time to time on VH1 Classic's metal show). Holding on Forever got a lot of attention as well. If you're into Zeppelin, it's worth checking out, but it does sort of have that late 80's hard rock feel to it. That's not bad, I like that sound, but it kind of sounds like what Zeppelin might sound like if they came out new in the late 80's.
