I have an eternal, undying hatred for Led Zeppelin and I thought this was going to be a horrific trainwreck, but it was pretty damned awesome.

Great song, silly video.

Very bizarre, yet so awesome at the same time...and I kept picturing this:

Damn, Alison looks hot...

The music is vaguely Tom Waits-y. I kinda liked it.

NeauxFear: Great song, silly video

NOT this.

Liked the video, thought the song was so-so.
No matter, who would have thought that THIS duet would ever have come about?

Most of the songs on the record are a bit darker and have a somewhat murky character.

Very well produced by T-Bone Burnett(he plays guitar on it as well).

Juniper Jupiter: Very bizarre, yet so awesome at the same time...and I kept picturing this:

Wacky, waving, inflatable, arm-flailing tube man!

I was thinking of that too, and thought it seemed a bit out of place.

He's hitting it.

Alison could sing the phonebook and I would still pay to hear it. She has about 20 Grammy awards, and when she sang 'Down to the River to Pray' on the soundtrack from 'O Brother Where Art Thou?' it almost made this hardened Atheist want to come to Jebus.

/rabid fanboy mode off
//for now

Finally, a video for this one -- my favorite song of last year, for sure. They're perfect together.

By the way, it's an Everly Brothers cover.

dumbear:
Yes it is.
/love the Everly bros
//Plant's voice a bit overproduced for me, but disc is still worth a listen

Plant's voice a bit overproduced for me, but disc is still worth a listen

As for his voice, the same could be said for anything he's recorded since 1980.

Damn straight.. that woman has a voice that proves there is a higher being out there. She's damned near perfect.

Ugh.
I heard a much better song from this release last night on Folk Alley.

Who would have guessed those two could make harmony that tight? I'm a fan of each of them, but this combination turned out so much better than I would have ever guessed.

And I thought I got over my Robert Plant crush at 16, but given the chance I would still jump on him like a monkey on a cupcake.

Wait, is this that old Chilliwack song?

Nice to see T. Bone in the video.

"Killing the Blues" (pops) is my favorite song on the album so far.

Jeezum Crow: The music is vaguely Tom Waits-y. I kinda liked it.

Funny you should say that, Marc Ribot is one of the major guitarists on the album.

xdedd: He's hitting it.

With a fist, nay, HAMMER of an angry god.

apple doesn't hold a monopoly on dancing silhouettes?

Dear Robert,
Please return to Led Zepelin.

Your loyal fan.

Remember when Union Station first hit, Krauss was so damn shy, she couldn't even look into a camera.

It is nice to see she has matured.

Broktun | I'd let her rosin my bow

I work at Starbucks, and I get to hear this album several times a day for the last couple months on the music system. Im pretty sick of it, lol

How is it possible she is getting even better looking with age?

I believe that is the first time I have seen her without the fiddle. I just assumed it was permanently attached to her hand.

Dumbear: By the way, it's an Everly Brothers cover.

I was thinking this song sounded a bit like early Beatles when I listened to the album. This kind of explains.

noheadphones: xdedd: He's hitting it.

catsass:

Line forms behind me, sugar!

For the record, though, I know that I would get girlfight-ed(TM) out of that line. I saw a rock symphony's tribute to Zep a few weeks ago, and women were going batshiat over the guy who was just singing Robert's parts. He was pretty good, but Jaysus.

/Anyway, this album is fantastic.

I'd like to knock Alison Krauss unconscious, drag her back into my cave, and have sexual relations with her.


Multiple times.

You'd probably like to smell her shoes too, ya freak!! :P

Saw her and Union Station at UNH, Durham a couple of years ago. Great show, and she IS a strikingly beautiful woman.

vgt: Wait, is this that old Chilliwack song?

I wish.

/grew up in Chilliwack (the city)
//home, sweet home
///now stranded near Niagara Falls

This sounds like some kind of obscure 70's track that Tarantino woulds resurrect for a movie soundtrack.

I'm not a big Led Zep fan, but I can't believe that this crap is what's standing in the way of a full fledged LZ reunion tour.
