Awesome, thanks for that.  Great to see Percy is still busy and continuing to create new sounds.

Copperhead Road meets Led Zeppelin.  Very cool.  And what a great album name is 'Band of Joy'.

It's a cover too...I wonder if they all are?

Edited to add...yes, it looks like they are.  Great cover albums are...well...great!

Yes, it's cover.

Great! :D While I'm not the biggest Plant fan in the world, I do like him alot, and I certainly can imagine myself buying this album. :D

Thanks for that link...I listened twice this morning.  :)

He's still a cool dude.

I'm currently listening to the full album right this moment, and I am VERY impressed! :D I am however curious; what is the point? I mean, I can understand putting individual songs on-line, but the entire album? Is the idea that if someone listens to it, and likes it, they are likely to buy the album? But what if they don't?


Edit: I just finished listening to it and I'm actually not impressed with it. I LOVE it! The interesting thing is that I've never been a huge fan of Plant. I think he's a wonderful singer, and several of his vocal performances are among my all-time favourites, but on several Zeppelin songs he sounds too much like a little girl (such as on Kashmir). On this album, however, his voice is perfect.

So Robert Plant was driving around one day, looking for a place to film the video for his new single.

He bought Mexico.

I've downloaded his new album and I quite like it.
