Robert and Allison sound amazing together, but I am not wild about taking the Zep songs and doing them in the bluegrass style...but love the two of them together.
Robert, if you're going to go with Alison, go. But don't kill Led Zeppelin like this. This makes me want to vomit. Do your own fucking material. At least Jimmy and John Paul don't deny their past..
IF you are really a Robert Plant fan then you should probably give Alison Krauss the same respect he did. She is a fantastic musician and vocalist. He learned a lot from her, and that makes him even cooler. His ego is not getting in the way of him learning more and more about his craft. She deserves a lot of respect and admiration just for standing next to him and holding her own. GO ALISON!
Couldn't have said it better myself. Krauss and Plant are two very respectable musicians. They both care more about the music than the money, and have always been that way.
Only one or two good songs on their album but their live performances were fucking the stuff music is made of. Oh, and Alison is sweet, humble and HOT.
Whoever thought to put these two voices together has one hell of an ear. They blend beautifully.
I love Zep and I'm not a big fan of Bluegrass but to all those people giving negative comments; if you can't hear the magic between these two you're musiclly retarded and you need to go back to sucking your thumb.
Or just go back to sucking.
Why are people so hostile toward unconventional versions of songs? Stop comparing it to what you already know and try to appreciate it for its originality.
yeah..I don't get it...zep is great...alison and union station are great...this is ...ok....some of theirs are pretty good...but I don't get the grammy accolades...its not up to the level of either zep or union statin...but more power to robert..!!...I'd do it if I were him...
I think alot of people just dont get it! If you truly loved perfection in sound & harmony, you'd not be able to do anything except love these two! Together or seperate, these two have it!
When I watch this or any other video of them performing this in 2008 you can almost see him thinking about going back to Page and saying "stop auditioning other artists. Plant is back."
He is thinking about it. His most recent comments were that he's getting old and that the chances were slim!
She did apparently. In a BBC news interview she said how she couldn't believe it.
In her own words she couldn't allow herself to get excited on the phone because she was putting the baby to sleep. According to her she explained why she seemed underwhelmed to him the next day and then showed her excitement!
i love the plant/krauss duets in general. he's my favorite of all time, and she is a recent favorite female. my bf in hs was a dixie chick, but she is completely and totally lame compared to krauss who stuck with her bluegrass roots. and while pairing with stevie was smart for landslide, pairing with plant was so f*ing brilliant! love these two!!
i didn't like this at first, because it's so different and slow but after seeing them for the second time live on friday night in golden gate park, i'm finding myself hearing it playing over in my head, and it's growing on me.
Sounds like they were inspired by vanilla fudge! RRReeeaaaalll SSSllloooowwww.

What a find. From Caravan to Fairport Convention to Sandy Denny to Robert and Alison. Is it true he turned down Led Zep for her?

Alison is the star here...and far from new. She is the best musician in her type of music which is why everyone wants to play with her.

WTF! This is shit. If Plant doesnt want to get back with Zep, more power to him, but doing Zep tunes cheapens him and the band... what crap.
