BEST Fantasy related Rock-n-Roll
What are the best Rock-n-Roll songs about or related to Fantasy Fiction? This question popped into my head last night so I asked it on a thread at sffworld.com. Head there if you would like to join the discussion.BEST Fantasy related Rock-n-Roll I started the list with the obvious entries below.
Led Zeppelin
Ramble On
A tribute to Tolkien's poetry & LOTR. Runner up mention to Misty Mountain Hop and The Battle of Evermore.
Jimi Hendrix
All Along The Watchtower
Musical imagery equivalent to a Frazetta drawing. A shout out to Bob Dylan, but Hendrix and the Experience infuse Dylan's composition with the power it needs to be a Fantasy classic.
Jefferson Airplane
White Rabbit
The definitive link between the 60's counter-culture and Fantasy Literature. Zeppelin transported us from present day into a fantasy world. Airplane dragged the fantasy world into present day.
