That Dandy Classic Track of The Day

Dan and Randy have one qualification when it comes to music that they like. That it be good. Neither genre, band, nor year of release will limit what they are open to enjoying. There are certain bands and albums that we may not have time to do a proper show on, but certain tracks still deserve another listen.

Enter our ‘That Dandy Classic Track of the Day’, wherein we’ll spotlight a song that we feel needs to be shared.

In a career full of epic songs “Achilles Last Stand” for Led Zeppelin might be the most bombastically excellent of them all from 1976’s ‘Presence’ album.
