Well john bonham was great but robert plant was also great

so based on the view
robert plant's skills on voice 9/10
john bonham's skills on drums 9/10

so I think both of them were great

if anyone on this band was very talented then it would be jimmy page.then I'd choose john paul jones (he has both bass and keyboard skills )
