Sister of the late John Bonham, and 'Auntie' to deputising drummer (and John's son) Jason Bonham (of Foreigner among others) we talked about what the reunion meant to the Bonham family, Deborah's charity for retired racehorses, what 2007 has been like for her, and her impending release of 'The Duchess' on the Warner Bros/Rhino label next April 8.
