Description

Being a fan of Led Zeppelin and the work of Robert Plant, I was curious about his recent pairing with Alison Krauss. Having not followed the bluegrass scene or Krauss’ career, I really like what both Plant and Krauss have accomplished with this album. If you are a radio listener, you have probably already heard the song “Gone Gone Gone (Done Moved On)” playing often. I like it too. “Trampled Rose” is a track where Krauss’ shines on the album for me. Great song. “Fortune Teller”, “Stick With Me Baby”, and “Let Your Loss Be Your Lesson” are also great tracks to check out as well. While these are all great tracks, the album as a whole also gels really well. Good mood music. The only track that I am disappointed about is “Please Read The Letter”. I never really enjoyed it when I first heard it off the “Robert Plant/Jimmy Page: Walking Into Clarksdale” album and doesn’t move me on this album either. Overall, a good album to add to your collection.
