Led Zeppelin - The Battle of Evermore (Studio Version - Best Quality)

[rayfreemer]

lyrics are not complete. what is that about?

@fairdale The RingWraiths are from Lord of The Rings. They also mention the angels of Avalon. I don't think they are telling the LOTR story but telling a story of their own but using the some of the imagery and names from LOTR. At the time, 99% of young people who listened to hard rock/rock'n'roll had read the books.

Classic tune from the greatest hard rock band of all time. You have to grow up in the 60's-70's to understand why. They brought the "hard' to rock. Huge rock n roller here but heavy metal nowadays is trash compared to Zepellin's many classic songs.

Pure sound, moving. But what are RingWraiths (or whatever?) - is there any literary reference to what we think they might be singing about? Not like the liquid exhalations of dying sandworms in Dune or something? Thank you to help me appreciate these amazing lyrics even better.

@fairdale78 Ringwraiths are from the Lord of the Rings. A lot of Zeppelin songs have Lord of the Rings references.
