The Beatles inspired Dave Grohl to play guitar

Dave Grohl says he learned to play guitar because of the legendary band, The Beatles.
The 48-year-old musician says he would play a song by the music group and try to follow their music sheet to the T, reports Contactmusic.
"That's really where I learned to play guitar. I would put an album on, find the page with the song, try to play along according to this simple music sheet, almost like I was in a band in my bedroom, trying to follow along with these other players. I'd have to remember an arrangement, and changes and tempo and melody," says Grohl.

The Foo Fighters frontman says he honed his drumming skills because he wanted to be as good as Led Zeppelin's John Bonham.
"'The Song Remains the Same' blew my mind. That's when I really became a drummer, listening to that album and realising how poor a drummer I actually was. When I heard the power and clarity of John Bonham on that CD, I thought, I've got a lot of work to do.
