But I am glad I got to see him twice recently!!! And...I can't wait for the SSS album! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JP78 Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 it sounds like he is saying he wont be as busy touring around the world and making new albums as much. but he will still perform when he wants to. and he will spend more time in America with Patty Griffin.

Bayougal65 Posted December 15, 2012 Author Share Posted December 15, 2012 (edited) It’s official, his on-going retirement party over the last number of years of discovering sleepy music has come to an end. It was fun while it lasted Rob… Sorry Charles, Looks like Rob is not yet to retire, but he is touring Australia and NZ with a stop in Singapore in the spring of 2013! And not a sleepy tune in the set!!! I like his idea of chillin'..... chillin' down under that is!

ksgemini Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 (edited) Man, Charles...u really can't get past LZ's past at all...so for the people that like Americana and world music influences.... it's all just sleepy music? Alison Krauss' band and T Bone Burnett are accomplished musicians and producers...Dylan must just put u out like a light. Justin Adams from Robert's band is excellent...nothing seems to be worthwhile to u now...ok flame on...I'll enjoy my descent into sleepy music.

I know that I didn't - I like many things after Zeppelin. I rather enjoyed the albums Principle of Moments, Honey Drippers, Manic Nirvana, and Fate of Nations. I also liked the single songs Shine It All Around, and Angel Dance. The rest of it for me was bollocks. Edited December 16, 2012 by Charles J.

the chase Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 I haven't liked everything and some of it hasn't aged all that well but... Robert Plant has had a very gutsy solo career.. He could have milked Led Zeppelin dry. He could have become a crooner like Rod Stewart. He definitely went down his own path.. and that takes guts. Plus, Strange Sensations was an incredible band. He deserves to chill as much or as little as he wants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Shep Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Kudos to Plant for being reasonably prolific since LZ split. Even more kudos to those people who have somehow managed to enjoy his solo work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He deserves to chill as much or as little as he wants. strange sensation was probably the best, most versatile band that he's formed since zeppelin, really looking forward to his record with them next year, they're just so much more dynamic than stuff like the allison krauss project or the band of joy where the bands were maybe more genre specific. Yeah, I know they're the sensational space shifters now, but it's basically strange sensation under a different guise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knebby Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 (edited) Nah it's very different, which is a shame as I liked Strange Sensation a lot better. Edited December 29, 2012 by Knebby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlavarani Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 I'm desperately longing for new music. Don't get me wrong, I really do like many of his interpretations of Zep and Non Zep numbers. But one or two years ago Patty Griffin talked about new music being recorded and recently Buddy Miller spoke about an album with NEW music on it. Music, made by themselves. I'd really appreciate that coming. Okay, I'm looking forward to an SSS-Album either but pleeease without Song To The Siren. That's such a wonderful song and for me it's one of the highlights from Dreamland, but if I listen to the South-America downloads, I can only hope that we'll be speared from that. And though I grant him each and every hour in his beloved USA, there's something else I do hope for: a European Tour in 2013!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
z1inspector Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 well you gota remember how plant operates... he always slips into this zone ,trying to pause , in neutral ,has been doing covers " momentarily. let his creative batterys run at low rpm "and get ready for a FULL CHARGE ! he knows where their are some "exciting ideas" & IMO he wants to look at them with a fresh forward concept, or it could turn out good,still but then " good" is not what will get him excited to do ANY project! if he's not 'fully' able to look at these ideas from a clear view,or if other ideas are still in his system= HE WILL just enjoy himself a few MORE years working them through...... ONLY AFTER THEN will he be ready for sucha concept, something with no barriers ...pushing the limits of unheard of ideas and experimenting with them free of any style contamination. no boundries no expectations, if his buddys are willing tp experiment just for themselves ...no other intensions, they will try "things" & if it excites "them" they just may share it with "us" ...(amen) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperStatic Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 IMO The Mighty Rearanger was one the finest efforts put out by Plant as a soloist. A big step in the right direction for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nc0275 Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 saw RP with Band of JOy at Beacon Theater in NYC 2 yrs ago. An incredible show by awesome musicians in that band. For my money the best solo performance by RP since Zep that I witnessed. Buddy Miller, Daryl Scott and Patty Griffin are all world class talents. Can't wait for their next cd.
