The Disregard of Timekeeping

1989 studio album by Bonham

The Disregard of Timekeeping is the debut studio album by British/Canadian band Bonham, released in 1989. It was produced by Bob Ezrin, who had previously worked with Alice Cooper, Pink Floyd, and Kiss; in addition to his usual production duties, he also co-wrote three of the tracks. The album features Trevor Rabin as a guest, who was the lead guitarist and songwriter with Yes from 1982 to 1994.

"Wait For You" had a music video that was filmed at "Disney-MGM Studios' New York backlot".^[5]

Reception

William Ruhlmann of AllMusic stated the record was "palatable, but without the famous name it would be hard to distinguish from the army of other Zep imitators".^[4]

Young Bonham is almost exclusively associated with the type of old-fashioned hard rock pioneered by his dad's band. Indeed, Jason's former group, Bonham, scored a Top 40 album in 1990 ("The Disregard of Timekeeping") largely by following the mighty Zep's thunderous sonic recipe.
