ARTISTS OF THE MONTH: LED ZEPPELIN
What can you say about Zeppelin that could do them justice? The greatest band on the planet. AC/DC may be my favorite, but Led Zeppelin is just that much better. Formed in 1968 in England, they are considered the Godfathers of metal/hard rock. Just straight up rock and blues mix, which is fitting since Robert Plant was a blues singer before being tapped by Page to join.

Since this month is all about the Rock and Roll, what song could it be but Rock And Roll? Released on their fourth, and biggest, album. Which doesn't have a name. Most just call it Led Zeppelin IV or if you're a true Led Zeppelin fan, Zoso, but it was never officially titled. Rock And Roll is what a rock song should be. A fast and nasty sound with a heavy drum beat. The kind of song that'll get you a speeding ticket should you happen to be listening to it in your car. Enjoy.

Led Zeppelin: Rock And Roll.wma
It's been a long time since I Rock and Rolled,
It's been a long time since I did the Stroll.
Ooh, let me get it back, let me get it back,
Let me get it back, baby, where I come from.
It's been a long time, been a long time,
Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time.
Yes it has.

It's been a long time since the book of love,
I can't count the tears of a life with no love.
Carry me back, carry me back,
Carry me back, baby, where I come from.
It's been a long time, been a long time,
Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time.

Seems so long since we walked in the moonlight,
Making vows that just can't work right.
Open your arms, opens your arms,
Open your arms, baby, let my love come running in.
It's been a long time, been a long time,
Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time.

Yeah, hey
Yeah, hey
Yeah, hey
Yeah, hey

Ooh yeah
Ooh yeah
Ooh yeah
Ooh yeah

It's been a long time, been a long time,
Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time.
