Look at that, they banging on those bongos like a bunch of champanzee, that ain't working..

I like it

Agreed.  The music and his voice is a good mix!

Well, that was enjoyable for a first listen. Does it get better or worse, the more I hear it?

How about a sackbutt of CD's?

I heard a clip of Plant on the Today show yesterday and Kathy Lee asked him if he actual wrote songs. He had a classy reply rather than bonkering her in the forehead

Yes, it is cool to see an older classic rock God not only still be performing, but performing interesting, relevant music! Unlike some other artists - Rolling Stones - Bruce Springsteen - that shall remain unnamed.

Completely agree.  The evolution has been really great... funny to hear the synth stuff from the early/mid 80's, but it's all part of the journey.

Right now, he's probably been in just about the best form he's been in for a long time.  Vocally (thinking Led Zeppelin shrieking Plant) Manic Nirvana might have been his best period for solo stuff...  This Afro Celt stuff is much more where he belongs though.

Even more-so the current stuff he's doing with Allison Krauss is exactly where he is right now.

(although that O2 show was SO, SO, SO HOT that I think he should have given the Zeppelin thing one last go) 

I would forgive Robert Plant of almost anything including soddomy against Donkeys.....mmm - he deserves respect up to the point of the donkeys at least.

Nope, the Plant is still growing well, goes into dormancy now and again, but blooms again when the weather is amenable and the melody demands it.

Ok, ACSS sell craploads of boatloads of CDs in their native Celtic regions. And IMO they kick donkey too! :)

I'm not so keen on this album as there are too many guest appearances (though they do owe Peter Gabriel for setting their project up in the first place), but it's still decent enough. Any of the other albums is way better, though.

boring I'm afraid... doesn't go anywhere at all

Robert Plant is definitely one of the coolest "old dudes" alive...it's great he still tries new things, given his level of success.

The Plant has shriveled and almost died, gasping it's last breaths in a futile effort to continue on, but alas, can only have the bare garden stakes of other performers prop it up until the inevitable return to the dust of the earth.

good song.  but i wish they would have really challenged plant and made him earn his supper.  it would have been great to hear him howl during a great piece of music again.
