When 28 undocumented Mexican workers were killed in a plane crash in 1948, the newspaper reports failed to mention any of them by name. Instead, the victims were referred to as “deportees.” That was until they were memorialized by Woodie Guthrie in his song “Plane Wreck at Los Gatos...

So close. Robert Plant nails two-thirds of this song's title within the song – sorry, "hop." "Misty Mountain Hop" can be also found on the B-side of "Black Dog," another Led Zeppelin classic that can't quite mention the song's title. Like "Ramble On" and "The Battle of Evermo...
