About this Artist
Robert PlantEven if Robert Plant had disappeared after the demise of Led Zeppelin, he's still be lauded as one of rock's greatest vocalists. The fact that he had a healthy post-Zep solo career that owed little to past glories is a testament to his own artistic fortitude. Admittedly, Zeppelin fans wouldn't have been too far afield with Plant's first couple of early-'80s releases, but by 1985's SHAKEN 'N' STIRRED he had more in common with SECURITY-era Peter Gabriel than with '70s blues-rock. A detour with side project the Honeydrippers found Plant exploring his love of '50s rock & roll. By the 21st century, he was exploring roots of a different kind, effectively reinventing songs by the likes of the Youngbloods and Tim Buckley on the Grammy-nominated DREAMLAND. Definitive Albums
