Ok slightly tenuous link for #TuneTuesday #SongsFromHome this week but bear with me... It's well known that JRR Tolkien lived in Shropshire (and that Mordor was an extended allegory for nearby the industrialised region of Birmingham/Black country). It just so happens that I grew up in Shropshire too. Led Zeppelin's Ramble On makes references to Lord of the Rings and I used to listen to it on my mp3 player in the school bus. Plus it's a banger
