JRR Tolkien’s trilogy The Lord of the Rings was published in the 1950s, which made it the perfect fantasy fodder for young Baby Boomers. Some of them went on to become songwriters and entertainers who used the world of Middle Earth for inspiration. It wasn’t just Led Zeppelin, although a list of 11 songs could be dominated by the group. No, this list only features one song per artist, and for Zep, that one song is “Ramble On.”
The list has songs from Joni Mitchell, Rush, Megadeth, and more, all with music videos.
You’ll find it at Mental Floss.
