music meme - 11 - a song from your favorite band

Favorite Band = Led Zeppelin (no contest). 

Since it just says list "a song" --- I'll list a fun little song that nobody who isn't a diehard Zep fan knows anything about, from their last studio album, In Through the Out Door (1979), and it shows the band at its lowest point, when Jimmy was struggling with heroin and Bonham with the alcoholism that took his life the following year (he was 32; the 30th anniversary of his death was Sept 25, 2010).  Still, Zep at their  "worst" are still better than most!

HOT DOG.

It's their novelty song.  Robert sings in his Elvis Voice, Jonesy is slamming down some honkytonky piano, and Jimmy kind of attempts bluegrass guitar... his solo is extremely weird... "... and I'll never go to Texas anymore...." 

It's a great little song though!  :)  Hope the link still works by the time you click... and hope you enjoy it!
