Three out of four Led Zeppelin members working on new music

Drummer Jason Bonham told a Detroit radio station's morning show on Friday (August 22nd) that he, Led Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page and bassist John Paul Jones have been "jamming" together recently and even working on some new music. Bonham told WCSX, "I've been over (to England) a couple of times. I've been working with Jimmy and John Paul and trying to do just do some new material and some writing. I don't know what it will be, but it will be something...At the moment, all I know is I have the great pleasure to go and jam with the two guys and start work on some material."

Although Bonham had no idea where the material might end up, he said that recording with Zeppelin is "something I've always wanted to do," but added that "lots of politics (would need to) get ironed out" before anything like that took place.

Bonham, son of late Led Zeppelin drummer John Bonham, took his father's place behind the drum kit for just the second time in his career last December at Zeppelin's December reunion show in London.

There's been no official word of any further Zeppelin activity since the December concert, despite intense speculation, largely because of singer Robert Plant's commitment to touring behind Raising Sand, his album with bluegrass singer Alison Krauss.

Bonham, a native of England who now lives in Florida, also revealed that he was giving up his current job with Foreigner at the end of the month.
