"Achilles' Last Stand" It was an April morning When they told us we should go And as I turned to you, you smiled at me How could we say no? With all the fun to have To live the dreams we always had Oh, the songs to sing When we at last return again Sending off a glancing kiss To those who claim they know Below the streets that steam and hiss The devil's in his hole Oh to sail away To sandy lands and other days Oh to touch the dream Hides inside and never seen, yeah Into the sun, the south, the north At last the birds have flown Shackles of commitments fell In pieces on the ground Oh, to ride the wind To tread the air above the din Oh, to laugh aloud Dancing as we fought the crowd, yeah To seek the man whose pointing hand The giant step unfolds To guide us from the curving path That turns our feet to stone If one bell should ring In celebration for a king So fast the heart should beat As proud the head, with heavy feet, yeah Days went by when you and I Bathed in eternal summer's glow As far away and distant Our mutual child did grow Oh, the sweet refrain Soothes the soul and calms the pain Oh Albion remains Sleeping now to rise again Wandering and wandering What place to rest the search The mighty arms of Atlas Hold the heavens from the earth For the mighty arms of Atlas Hold the heavens from the earth From the earth, earth Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh I know the way, know the way, know the way, know the way I know the way, know the way, know the way, know the way Oh the mighty arms of Atlas Hold the heavens from the earth Ah, ah, ah

It's not that it flew under the radar. This song was on "Presence", their seventh album. It came out in 1977, and by then punk had exploded the music scene. Heavy rock bands, especially Led Zeppelin, were being seen as outdated, "dinosaurs". So the songs on that album had two strikes against already before even being released, and have never gotten the acclaim the earlier songs got. Still some great stuff on there as always. :)
@DannyD7143 жыл бұрын
"presence" itself is an underrated album. it's really their last and best heavy record. after this came "in through the out door" which was much more tame. then bonzo died, and they eventually put out "coda" which was kind of just left over scraps.

Hey Jamel, It is time for you to do another run of "Greta Van Fleet." Nice to compare to your re-runs of Led Zeppelin. That band is not a 1970s classic rock act, but they are 100% classic rock of today. They constantly are compared to Led Zeppelin, and rate just as high on so many aspects. Yes, I am qualified to say that. I'm 60 years old and Led Zep in San Diego 1977 was my very first concert. I would suggest "When the Curtain Falls." GREAT MUSIC!

Long reply. If whomever is reading this doesn't care for an analysis of the lyrics, ignore it. But this is my favorite ever song. Tektoniks, you are correct to bring up the accident, but I believe incorrect in suggesting the song is about Achilles. The song is not about the mythical figure, at least not directly; it's rather precisely about Plant's car accident and the circumstances surrounding it. Jamal is thus not entirely wrong when he says "Achilles Last Stand" reminds him of basketball injuries. I'm not going to analyze every line - that's impossible since some of the lyrics are likely very personal and impossible for someone to speculate about 50 years after the fact. I will only cite enough lines to prove what I've asserted above. First piece of evidence: the car accident happened in Morocco. Now, Morocco is home to the Atlas Mountains; hence the line: "The mighty arms of Atlas, hold the heavens from the Earth..." More on this later. Plant and Page liked to visit new places and seclude themselves from everyday life to draw inspiration for their songs. The album Led Zeppelin III, which is Celtic/Folk inspired was written in Bron-Yr-Aur, a remote cottage in Wales. Page and Plant were perhaps encouraged by friends or their record company to travel through Morocco. (The trip, musically, was a success. The song "Kashmir" with it's middle-eastern flavor, would also come from the trip.) And so the first lines: "It was an April morning, when they told us we should go. As I turned to you, you smiled at me, how could we say no? With all the fun to have, to live the dreams we've always had. OH THE SONGS TO SING, WHEN WE AT LAST RETURN AGAIN." (My emphasis). I get the sense Plant was not satisfied by a hum-drum, nine to five, modern life. (Perhaps why he became a rock star.) He wanted adventure: "Sending off a glancing kiss, to those who claim they know. Below the streets that steam and hiss, the Devil's in his hole. Oh to sail away, to sandy lands and other days. Oh to touch the dream, that hides inside is never seen, yeah." Imagine a busy street in a modern city, steam rising from it's sewers and exhaust from it's cars. The constant noise of brakes and horns. A small version of Hell. But Plant has a chance to visit the deserts and mountains of North Africa; to travel to not just another place geographically, but to a different age, still untouched and uncorrupted by modern life. (Sandy lands and other days.) Also hear the music matching the lyrics. The song at first begins with a rather dull, repetitive, guitar riff. But then suddenly the guitar brightens. The drums beat quickly, relentlessly. Adventure. At the very end of the song, the end of the trip, we return to the dull, repetitive guitar. So Plant and Page, finally, can escape, get in a plane and fly off. "Into the sun, the south, the north, at last the BIRDS have flown. The shackles of commitments fell, to pieces on the ground." Before Led Zeppelin was formed Page was part of a band called the Yardbirds. That band broke up, but were still on the hook for a few shows. Page brought in new musicians to fulfill the outstanding obligations, and the new line-up became Led Zeppelin. So before Zeppelin were Zeppelin, they were the Yardbirds. Now as they're driving through Morocco, Plant either gets lost and/or is driving too quickly in that search for adventure, and crashes the car, which leads to the injuries you describe, Tekt. I imagine the car fell off the road in a hilly if not mountainous area: "To seek the man whose pointing hand, THE GIANT STEP UNFOLDS. To guide us from THE CURVING PATH, THAT TURNS OUR FEET TO STONE." And of course the line which sounds as though Plant is berating and bemoaning his arrogance in driving: "I know the way, know the way, know the way, know the way." We also have at the climax of the song Plant's cries of pain from his injuries, the repeated Ohs and ahs. And the guitar too has shifted from adventure to wails of pain. The drums beat machine-gun like all of a sudden, mimicking a car's crash and roll-over. Now the central line of the song: "The mighty arms of Atlas, hold the Heavens from the Earth." Now the line is mixed, or can mean more than one thing at once. Obviously Atlas was a Titan who held the sky up in Greek myth, and so the lyric adds to the epic feel of the song. But it's not Achilles who I'm reminded of here, but rather Icarus, who flew too close to the Sun. I imagine Plant crawling out of the car, awaiting an ambulance, gazing upon the Atlas mountains. On the one hand the mountains have dashed his dreams, have stopped his trip, if not his ability to walk again, hence held the heavens from his reach. On the other hand, or perhaps at the same time, the mountains did not kill him. For they held off the heavens, the afterlife. There are of course more details to pick up on, once you know the story, but I leave that to those of you interested in listening and re-listening to this song. Excellent choice Jamal.

The album wasn't quite what folks expected, especially given that it followed Physical Graffiti. It was also followed by the release of The Song Remains The Same, which was basically live material from years earlier. People wanted more of the same, didn't get it with Presence, and did get it with TSRTS. As a result, not only was the album treated as an afterthought by the band, it was treated as an afterthought by the fans. In Through The Out Door, the next (and essentially last) studio album, is better remembered (despite Carouselambra).

Presence is indeed overlooked...I’ve heard it referred to as the “bargain bin” Zeppelin album. That’s entirely too dismissive a title for album that has this song, Nobody’s Fault But Mine, and Tea For One. There was undeniably tension in the band during the recording, as Plant had just come out of a devastating car crash that required surgery, Page being addicted to heroin at this point, and Bonham becoming a full-blown alcoholic. Perhaps that’s part of what contributed to the different feel of the album. But I still think it’s a classic, and it beats many albums that were released around the same time period.

This song was released in the same year that RUSH put out 2112. There is a rumor that both RUSH and LED ZEPPELIN were listening to each others music and a possible RUSH influence can be heard in this song. It is well known that both bands were fans of each others music.

This song was really hard to play live because there's so many guitars on it. Page had to use effects to get even close to the sound on the record and John Paul Jones had to play an 8-string bass. Ronnie Wood and Keith Richard saw them play it live, Keith said to Page after: ‘You ought to get another guitarist; you’re rapidly becoming known as the most overworked guitarist in the business!"

It was an April morning when they told us we should go As I turn to you, you smiled at me How could we say no? Oh, the fun to have To live the dreams we always had Oh, the songs to sing When we at last return again Slipping off a glancing kiss To those who claim they know Below the streets that steam and hiss The devil's in his hole Oh, to sail away To sandy lands and other days Oh, to touch the dream Hides inside and never seen, yeah Into the sun, the south, the north At last the birds have flown The shackles of commitment fell In pieces on the ground Oh, to ride the wind To tread the air above the din Oh, to laugh aloud Dancing as we fought the crowds, yeah To seek the man whose pointing hand The giant step unfolds With guidance from the curving path That churns up into stone If one bell should ring In celebration for a king So fast the heart should beat As proud the head with heavy feet, yeah Days went by when you and I Bathed in eternal summer's glow As far away and distant Our mutual child did grow Oh the sweet refrain Soothes the soul and calms the pain Oh Albion remains Sleeping now to rise again Wandering and wandering What place to rest the search? The mighty arms of Atlas Hold the heavens from the earth For the mighty arms of Atlas Hold the heavens from the earth From the earth I know the way, know the way, know the way, know the way I know the way, know the way, know the way, know the way Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh oh Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh oh Ah, ah, ah, ah Ah, ah, ah, ah Ah, ah, ah, ah Ah, ah, ah, ah Ah, ah, ah, ah Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh oh Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh oh Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh oh Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh oh For the mighty arms of Atlas Hold the heavens from the earth Ah, ah, ah, ah Ah, ah, ah, ah Ah, ah, ah, ah Ah, ah, ah, ah
