I do admire the Hell out of Robert Plant. The only times that he went back to Zeppelin were for one off charitable things instead of to line his pockets.
Haha, the reporter got OWNED at 2:36 when he asks about an incident with amplifiers. Plant answers "in Copenhagen, yeah", and then the reporter says "in Sweden"! Plant then looks really dejected and once again says "Copenhagen" with a blunt smile. (Copenhagen is the capital of DENMARK...!) Plant is so cool...
I think he is a very handsome guy, he also had a few good songs being solo, but still he is just one quarter of the best band that has ever existed!!!!
Donnie Sutherland. Good interview. thught it was pretty straight forward and honest. Ole Percy has a habit of saying stuff that sometimes makes little sense. Here he is articulate and unassuming. Donnie Sutherland always did good interviews.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Dood, he looks like a middle aged yenta from about 7:02 to 7:07. Seriously? He is totally rockin' that 40 something ex-wife on an 80's gameshow look. I mean come ON! "I like to play...tennisssss" Do what? Watching this donkeydick is like listening to people eat. Equally annoying AND repulsive. Damn. You know I am right.
yeah its crazy to see him with his hair like this, he looks why more awesome with long hair, but looks aside, he is a very talented musician. to bad he wasn't a rebel :{!
3. Compelled to add few more things, it has to be said, that the `dusty` sound in their earlier recordings was also somehow partly connected to `acoustics`. Remnants of this sound they had still in -72. In altering moods their rock `breaths`, being innovative ENOUGH (in `mellow` proportion) to respire through decades bearing also certain ethnic values. Surprisingly `fresh` and timeless music even today. I consider their best album to be "Led Zeppelin II" and their best song:" Bring it on Home".
2. Robert Plant`s singing is so UNIQUE (in it`s high-level) that one HAS to look proper comparison outside of rock. Only this kind of artists are gipsy flamenco-singers, among whom cognizers have long known to be found the most profound singers in the entire world. In the "Hats of to (Roy) Harper", for example, something reminds me equally, albeit differently, about the truly high-level of Camaron de la Isla, Enrique Morente and Pata Negra to just a name a few. L.Z. arose into fame FOR REASONS.
1. `Led Zeppelin` changed the course of events in rock. That`s not common. -68/-71 they had a magical sound. `Smoky`, deep, intuitive atmosphere is `hand-touchable` in recordings, particularly on `vinyl`. At times raw but multiverse, undefinedly spontaneous, progressive dynamics stays `coherent` in slightly mystical `hold`. Pioneering as a `by product` in it`s creative aspect.
all you people with your "i dont like how he looks, his look this, his look that" shut up already. no one cares what you think, especially Robert Plant, he's had more women then you've even seen.
@nathansavas AYE! T'was the fuckin 80's - everyone looked weird.....just like everyone in the 90's....and just like everyone now will look in 20 years.
Jones was actually the best musician. He was a better keyboardist than bassist, and he was an amazing bassist! But Jimmy Page is much more influential.
You have to get ALL his CD's. And never stop listening to them. It's the only way to survive in this modern era we live in.
With the best bands sounding only slightly better than the trash on "American Idol", bands like Led Zeppelin + Robert Plant actually have musicality and poetic soul.
he looks very weird on those pictures from 80's what was wrong with him? it's about hair or what? and the eyes...don't like it, I think he looks much better right now then in the 80's but still sound great:)Led Zep rulez
Allthough it is not correct to call them hipies. I mean, they really had a lot of material goods and a "superficial" lifestyle and got everything they wanted. The total opposite of the ideals that 'real' hippies believed in.
But yes, their music was revolutionary and provocative and... alot of the kids in the audience were hippies.
Yeah, that weird 80's style just spread and spread it seems, what i meant by hippie was really the style of clothes, obviously living in a mansion with loads of cars and shit is against the ideals of hippies.Think he appealed to them though,well he did to my mum anyway! lol ciao
Jon Anderson had his hair like that at that time as well. I think those two have a lot in common - tops of their field. Yes even played Zeppelin songs - it would have been peculiar to hear Zeppelin cover Roundabout. I like that these guys were intelligent people. The music industry is so crummy right now it's scaring anyone with a brain right out of the business.
It's a shame Donny (the interviewer!) isn't involved in Aussie TV anymore. He use to interview all the big stars and would always get a great interview out of them. This one with Robert Plant is exceptional!!
It's amazing how Robert was able to make a solo career when he was in his mid-thirties and still make his music sound relevant and fresh. It's even more amazing that he can have a mullet and not look like an idiot. Robert is my fave.
"Sing ok"?? This guy has one of the best voices in rock history!! Never heard anybody sound like him now or then... Give freedom back to artists you label fucks!!!

I am not sure about from the first seconds when you Plant with a clock key in him.
But the background sounds like the Led Zeppelin song, "Kashmir."
It may not be because LZ disbanded in 1980, and Plant went solo after that, so it may be a song from Plant's solo tracks.
