Our Take

The long-awaited collaboration between rock god, Robert Plant, and angelic songstress, Alison Krauss, is finally here, and it's a musical match made in heaven. "Raising Sand" takes listeners on a journey through an eclectic mix of folk, rock, and country, seamlessly blending Plant's rugged vocals with Krauss's angelic harmonies.

From the sultry opener, "Rich Woman," to the hauntingly beautiful "Killing the Blues," Plant and Krauss showcase their undeniable chemistry and skillful musicianship. The duo's reimagining of classic tracks like "Gone, Gone, Gone" and "Through the Morning, Through the Night" breathe new life into old favorites, while their original compositions, such as the haunting "Sister Rosetta Goes Before Us," leave a lasting impression.

Plant's trademark swagger is on full display, while Krauss's ethereal voice adds a touch of sweetness to the mix. The production is top-notch, with T Bone Burnett at the helm, creating a rich, atmospheric sound that perfectly complements the duo's vocals.

"Raising Sand" is a masterclass in musical collaboration, with Plant and Krauss proving that opposites attract when it comes to creating timeless music. Whether you're a die-hard fan of either artist or a newcomer to their work, this album is guaranteed to leave you spellbound from start to finish. So grab a glass of whisky, sit back, and let the magic of "Raising Sand" wash over you. You won't be disappointed.

Robert Plant and Alison Krauss

ROBERT PLANT / ALISON KRAUSS In the words of Led Zeppelin's iconic frontman Robert Plant and bluegrass queen Alison Krauss, "Please read our profile – it'll be a whole lotta fun!" Robert Plant, the curly-haired rock god known for his wailing vocals and incendiary stage presence, teamed up with the angelic Alison Krauss, a master fiddler and ethereal songstress, to create a musical partnership that defies categorization. Plant, with his wild mane and rock 'n' roll swagger, brings a raw edge to their collaboration, while Krauss, with her angelic voice and mastery of the bluegrass genre, adds a touch of sweetness and purity to their sound. Together, Plant and Krauss have released albums that blend their unique styles seamlessly, creating a sonic tapestry that is at once hauntingly beautiful and undeniably catchy. Their live performances are legendary, with Plant commanding the stage like a rock 'n' roll deity and Krauss dazzling audiences with her virtuosic fiddling and enchanting vocals. With Plant's rock 'n' roll pedigree and Krauss's bluegrass roots, this duo is a match made in musical heaven. So sit back, relax, and let the sounds of Robert Plant and Alison Krauss wash over you like a wave of pure musical bliss.
