SuperDave Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 That was fantastic!!!! I love it when he plays harmonica. He needs to do more of that! Definitely. He's a great harmonica player. Hopefully, he'll do some of that on their next tour. Love to see that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aquamarine Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 I would have KILLED for them to have done that at one of the shows I went to last year. I was hoping against hope they'd make it a permanent part of the set, but no . . . Thanks, SuperDave! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ninelives Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 That's certainly a good one. I even added it to my favorites. A real keeper, even though short. I did too. I was lucky enough to have seen it at one of the shows I attended. Was amazing live and yes, I thought it would have been a great addition to the set list across the tour.

Melanie_72 Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 I had no idea - thanks so much for the info! No problem. Take a look at this. Listen to Robert wail on the harmonica. Great stuff. That's great, thanks for sharing! In addition to being a great singer, Robert is such an excellent harmonica player! And Roxie, lucky you for being at that show, I bet that was awesome!!

SuperDave Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 I was at that show. Sigh........... I would have loved to have seen that. Good thing for YouTube. They need to do more blues based performances in their shows. As much as I liked their show, it would be fantastic if they can rock out a little more. This would really add something to their show.

I'm sure it will be quite different from Raising Sand Robert is always trying to break new ground with each recording he makes. He is always about challenging himself musically.

The Rover Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 http://www.guidelive.com/sharedcontent/dws...n1.241d6e0.html Krauss and Plant should win album of the year Grammy tonight On CBS beginning at 7pm Central Time - Schedlued for 3 1/2 Hours to 10:30pm From the Dallas Morning News Entertainment Guide: By MARIO TARRADELL / Music Critic There will only be one winner. And it should be Raising Sand. Led Zeppelin, the iconic rock band where Plant honed his rock 'n' roll craft, never won a Grammy. Shocking, right? Plant does have two Grammys, one with former Zep buddy Jimmy Page when they were a duo in the late '90s. And the other is with Krauss, from last year, when Sand's "Gone, Gone, Gone (Done Moved On)" was nominated in the best pop collaboration track. Neither victory was in a major category. A win for album of the year would indirectly correct Grammy's Zeppelin slight. The Krauss connection Plant is in lofty company. Alison Krauss is the most Grammy-awarded female ever, with 21 trophies. She is everything the academy loves – versatile, creative, respected and successful. Remember also that Raising Sand sold more than 1 million copies without benefit of any significant pop or country radio airplay. The pairing spawned a successful tour, which stopped at Grand Prairie's Nokia Theatre last July. As if that's not enough, here's a final note: Hancock's River: The Joni Letters was not a commercial hit, and it still won for all the erudite reasons you can think of. Raising Sand has all of those and more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as I liked their show, it would be fantastic if they can rock out a little more. This would really add something to their show. I'd like to see that too. I loved how "Black Country Woman" was done live. A bit more "rockier". Wouldn't mind seeing a few more songs like that live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kirchzep27 Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 On the things i've been seeing on tv, looks like -plant and krauss might be winning record of the year. that'll be cool if they win, its a great record and would be cool to see someone from -led zep finally getting recognized by the grammys.

Agreed! It is still hard to believe that Zeppelin never won a Grammy! Anyways, it was great to see them get the Lifetime Achievement Award and then Page/Plant winning one and now Robert with Alison. It's about time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is precisely why Plant and Krauss may win Record of the Year. So many great artists were never recognized. I dont think Neil Young has ever won a grammy still Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont think Neil Young has ever won a grammy still And Album of the Year too. It can be a weird thing with the Grammy voters I agree. Some years they give awards to artists whom you never hear from ever again and skip over those who have been long overdue. Then, some years, they get it right on the mark. Looks like this year, they are off to a great start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they do have a really good shot! But it's very exciting that they've won two already Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, yes they are still the favorites and that has alot to do too with Alison having the most Grammys than any other female in history. Not bad to have as an advantage, huh? LOL. Not to mention the CD is just great. Plus them winning two so far is a good indication I think. ^^SuperDave, I love the avatar!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Memphis Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 For once the Grammy's got it right...I was so jaded I didn't even think it would happen but it was nice but it would have been nicer if the show hadn't run long and they hadn't rushed the winners off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
