Robert make it his own. Heard him do a slow sexy version of Black Dog when on tour and it was a whole new song.....amazing. Take care of yourself, Robert, we mortals need all the music you can create!

Pretty cool, Bill What's next? Actually, it was the Sir Douglas Quintet by Los Lobos. How about Bread by Fugazi? |

How people don't see the skill and beauty of his recent music I don't know. Love Zep as all right thinking people do but also love this sort of bluesy folky gear he has come out with lately. Also every time I hear the band of joy I can't help thinking how good I think they'd be live. I would welcome the chance to find out.

You can wear a shirt you bought thirty years ago too, but don't be surprised if it's worn, threadbare, and not nearly as comfortable as it once was. |

Wow! What a great surprise! I would NEVER have anticipated Mr. Plant to cover Los Lobos, but it works beautifully.

Buddy...your on the wrong channel! Musicians do evolve...for better or for worse. One cannot sing their glory days forever. I'd say R Plant has done quite well in furthering his career for his love of music...not for what you might want to hear.
This is not an evolution, but a metamorphosis. Not a good one either, more like a butterfly to a moth. Robert is one of the absolute best rock singers ever and with that he has branded himself. I don't care so much if he wants to do ballads with Mariah Carey, but they better be pretty darn good and fitting of his image or the brand suffers. And your wrong, they can sing their glory days forever...well until the grandkids take grandpa's microphone and car keys away. Look around, its being done successfully by several. What would you rather see, Plant singing Black Dog with the boys or Angel Dance unplugged? Sorry, for me they cannot co-exist in the same universe. BTW, did you really listen to Steelers Wheel? |

Robert Plant has an inherent problem in that
1) a certain percentage think Zeppelin is the worst band ever (they got it opposite).
2) a certain percentage think Robert Plant should only be singing the Immigrant Song (or disappear as he gets old)
This song fits the 7 Score perfectly: Quite Likeable. |
