grohl only drummed for nirvana did he not? i know he did some side projects with qotsa and others, but i really dont think he played drums for the foos
But Bonham has more than talent. Some of my main reasons for him being up there are style and feel. Personally, I think he has amazing feel for the drums. And he did have a drumming style. Bonham was good in the sense that he hit the drums hard. That is not considered so important nowadays with drum microphones etc, but it used to be. He often broke drumskins.

I thought he played for the Foos. I'm not a huge fan though so hopefully someone will clarify this.
