SATURDAY SONG TO GET STONED TO: LED ZEPPELIN – “ACHILLES LAST STAND”

In addition to my initial 8th grade awe, this song will always remind me of screeching into the driveway of the Hard Rock Hotel in Las Vegas a few years ago, after devising a seemingly foolproof betting system on the road and actually turning around to drive the two hours back to Vegas to test it out.

And so I dedicate this one to my wacked-out partner-in-crime on the Vegas trips, the one and only Eddie Johnson, who still tells people that that’s his real name when he goes gambling.

LED ZEPPELIN – “Achilles Last Stand”, from Presence (1976)

PS…according to Wikipedia, this is Jimmy Page’s favourite Zeppelin song.
