Should be no surprise to find Robert Plant making great music with any musician. Being famous for making music in one genre has never stopped this singer from admiring other forms. He has, after all, appeared with Fairport at Cropredy and was an admirer of the Incredible String Band back in the day. Nice to hear these two together and with such a great band of musicians. Good also, to hear a Doc Watson song being aired. Be interesting to hear Zep cover Doc eh?

Think of all the Led Zeppelin songs you love. Now think of them all played on "Eastern bazaar" instuments that can't be tuned to the pentatonic scale. This crushingly disappointing album brings nothing to the music that defined a rock standard. Witness the number of copies for sale "new or used", and you will realise that dozens before me made the same bad mistake when they bought this self-indulgent offering from Page and Plant. The reviewers who gave it 5 stars are either suffering cognitive dissonance, or took too many of the drugs that the album's stars enjoyed back when they were good.

Rediscovered this album a few weeks back and I can't recommend it too highly. It's one of Plant's best solo albums and a couple of the songs are up there with any Zeppelin classic, Calling to You, I Believe & 29 Palms in particular.

There is a great feel to this album. The tracks slither and glide around your sound system and grow on you over time. In the 5 years's I've had this album it has grown on me like a fine wine.

There are two weak tracks, but don't all albums have those?

The band Plant assembled here (and reprised more or less for Mighty Rearranger) are the best live band I have ever seen... sadly they arent currently touring as Plant is on the road with Alison Krauss.

If they are to record together no more, this album will stand as the zenith of what they achieved - if you like Plant/zep or the general vibe of the 1960's west coast american blues movement you need this album! Its a underrated classic, and tracking back the original artists introduced ... Read More:

I love this package and the problem with saying what I like about it is that EVERYONE IS DIFFERENT!

People seem to forget that they are only giving their opinions in reviews like this. It is alright to say a particular track is the best ever but the package is spoiled by the inclusion of another track, because guess what? Someone else will like that track.

Some people have said that there were 'mistakes' but some of those mistakes are Robert's quoted favourite albums. I don't think saying that I love a particular album will get anyone to buy this, nor that I hate one but what I will say is that Robert's music, just like Led Zeppelin, has been a great discovery for me and it's all here, honest and laid bare and so different and yet with a continuous thread running ...

Well I think this is a great album but find it almost unlistenable on aything approaching decent stereo because of the relentlessly compressed vocals. Maybe this is why they've remastered it so soon after the initial release and would love to hear a review from someone who has heared the re-mastered version. After being bumped once by Robert Plant I'm reluctant to cough up again unless the poor sound quality has been corrected.
5 Star album + 2 star sound quality = 3 stars. Please bear in mind I've not heard the remaster.

What a superb album! Robert Plant's pre-LedZep tracks are truly original, particularly "Hey Joe" which is simply mesmerising. A wonderful addition to your CD collection.

Superb! Mesmerising voice, breathtaking melodies and incredible energy. Pure Joy. It is difficult to say which track is better. I would say the track "Anniversary" is a bit paler compared to the other ones but still the rest is just perfect.
