The kid says so. Not in a spot to listen right now.
Possibly the Doom2 game's "Duuuuuuuuunnnnnnnnnnnnn. Duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuunnnnnnn." song. ;)
Trivia from https://musichasameaning.com/2021/12/24/led-zeppelin-kashmir/:
Originally titled Driving To Kashmir, the song had begun as a lyric Plant had been inspired to write in the autumn of 1973 after a long, seemingly never-ending drive through “the waste lands”, as he put it, of southern Morocco. It’s meaning had nothing to do with Kashmir, in northern India, at all.
As Plant explained Kashmir’s meaning to Cameron Crowe, it was about the road journey itself rather than a specific geographical location: “It was a single-track road which neatly cut through the desert. Two miles to the east and west were ridges of sand rock. It looked like you were driving down a channel, this dilapidated road, and there was seemingly no end to it.” Hence, Plant said, the opening lyric: ‘Oh let the sun beat down upon my face, stars to fill my dreams.’
So John Bonham was in a band or two b4 Zeppelin. He joined a band, Robert Plant was in; a band called "Crawling King Snake". And there was an old blues song that many folks did by that same Crawlin' King Snake name, or Black Snake Moan from Blind Lemon J.:
Blind Lemon Jefferson - Father of Texas blues (he was blind). Influential but most blues guys of his time couldn't imitate his high pitched voice.
