Tonight’s mystery artists were inspired to write one of their biggest hit while driving down a straight narrow road that seemed to have no beginning or end to it.  Think you can guess the band or the song??

This story was told to Rolling Stones Cameron Crowe by Led Leppelin’s Robert Plant as he described coming up with Kashmir.  The story recounted on Wikipedia goes:

The lyrics were written by Robert Plant in 1973 immediately after Led Zeppelin's  1973 Tour, in an area he called "the waste lands" of Southern Morocco, while driving from Goulimine to Tantan in the Sahara Desert Plant recalls,

It was a single-track road which neatly cut through the desert. Two miles to the East and West were ridges of sandrock. It basically looked like you were driving down a channel, this dilapidated road, and there was seemingly no end to it. 'Oh, let the sun beat down upon my face, stars to fill my dreams ...' It's one of my favorites.

Here is tonight's featured song.
