Got this on Facebook this morning from my old friend Mike Hardy. For any old DJ who use to smoke (hands up everyone) this rings as true.

Led Zeppelin biographer Charles R Cross, claims that 100 radio presenters "literally... swore" that they aired "Stairway" because it was the "perfect length" for a cigarette break."The song became successful by accident," Cross told the New York Post. "[I] had 100 DJs swear to me that they only played the song because ...they needed a long break to go and smoke a cigarette"...well go figure...cute story anyway....lol

"Canadian Railway Trilogy" and the "Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald" gave us the same amount of critical time to grab a dart. Ah. The old days.
