In honor of our beloved J.R.R. Tolkiens birthday, in conjunction with Led Zeppelins John Paul Joness birthday, Ill be posting songs by Led Zeppelin that were inspired by, contained elements of, and drew from Tolkiens works. First up is Ramble On. Its from Zeppelins second album, Led Zeppelin II, and narrates Frodos journey to destroy the Ring. The songs opening lyrics are, Leaves are falling all around, its time I was on my way, just as Frodo left the Shire in the Autumn of T.A. 3018 Most notable, however, are the lyrics, Twas in the darkest depths of Mordor, I met a girl so fair. But Gollum, the evil one, crept up and slipped away with her. Enjoy Ramble On and Happy Birthday Mr. Tolkien! -Daeron
