Robert Plant – Band of Joy (CD)
Product Details
Named after the pre-Led Zeppelin band Plant fronted in the West Midlands in the late 1960s, this project signals something deeply personal, a return to the folk, country, and American roots music that shaped him long before "Whole Lotta Love" made him a god. Recorded with producer Buddy Miller and a cast of Nashville veterans, it leans into Low's "Silver Rider" and Los Lobos' "Angels Dancing" with the same reverence Plant has always brought to the music that moves him.
Robert Plant's Band of Joy reflects his unquenchable thirst for new songs and new sounds. Not satisfied with his stature as one of the great innovators and heroes of pop music, he continues to let his curiosity guide him to unexplored territory. Building on the roots-imbued sound he achieved with Alison Krauss on the wildly successful Raising Sand, Plant's song selection and incomparable vocals make Band of Joy a new triumph.
