Robert Plant

Musician

English singer best known as the lead vocalist of Led Zeppelin (formed with Jimmy Page, John Paul Jones and John Bonham). Since Led Zeppelin's end he has pursued a varied solo career exploring rock, blues, folk and world music, and notable collaborations such as with Alison Krauss.

Born 20 August 1948. Rose to fame as the frontman of Led Zeppelin. Long solo career spanning multiple stylistic phases (rock, folk, blues, world). Collaborated with Alison Krauss on Raising Sand; that project won multiple Grammy Awards including Album of the Year (2009).

DeBaser reviews depict Robert Plant as a revered elder statesman of rock who has shifted toward folk, blues and world music in his solo work. Live reports praise his charisma and interpretive voice even as reviewers note the limits of age. Collaborations (notably with Alison Krauss) and albums like Carry Fire receive frequent praise.

For:Fans of Led Zeppelin, classic rock listeners, and readers interested in folk/blues-influenced solo work.

 What a freaking voice he still has!

 Class and charm: these are the two words that best convey what I think of “Carry Fire.”

 Finally a truly beautiful album, emotional until the end, featuring a less egoistic Robert Plant, alongside a wonderful and very talented singer/violinist, Alison Krauss.
