Robert Plant, Suzi Dian, and Rosie Flores

Most rock performers that gain huge celebrity status in their early career tend to stick to the same formula whether or not they can pull it off or not, but Robert Plant is unlike these performers. Robert Plant knows he is aging and he has shifted his musical compositions into forms that he handles impeccably well. Other singers often do not have the nerve to shift their style of performance as they grow older, but musicians such as Tom Waits and Robert Plant know how to move with the times and end up venturing into new territories that see them producing the highest quality of music.
Robert Plant’s most recent concerts are a complete joy to see live. His shows contain a sense of maturity to them. He does not participate in the high-pitched shrieks and yells that he so masterfully produced in classic Led Zeppelin recordings, but his style has changed to the tune of more traditional folk standards, singing like an old soul with an angelic voice. It should not be a surprise that Robert Plant’s new style encompasses the ranges of traditional folk music. Robert Plant has been a fan of traditional folk standards since the early days of Led Zeppelin. The album, Led Zeppelin III, contains the folk standard, “Gallows Pole”, which Robert Plant frequently puts on his recent setlists. Robert Plant also performs other classic Led Zeppelin songs from his setlist such as “Tangerine” and a slow-downed, bluegrass rendition of “Black Dog”.
Robert Plant also tours with very skilled backing musicians. He has previously toured with the phenomenal bluegrass singer, Alison Krauss, who adds rich layers to Robert Plant’s songs by harmonizing in perfect pitch with him. Robert Plant has also brought other talented bands such as Band of Joy and Sensational Space Shifters with him on tour to perform new songs as well as some of our favorite Led Zeppelin tunes. Robert Plant is one of the most well respected singers still out there performing. Rolling Stone magazine has included him on the list of “100 Greatest Singers of All Time” and he has also been nominated for numerous Grammy awards. If you get a chance to see him live, Robert Plant will prove to you how his style has matured with him for the better and why he is one of the best singers still performing.

I was at their concert last night in Glasgow and was blown away …it was amazing …the musicians were outstanding and the whole show was so so special
Suzi Dan and Robert Plant what a combination .

This concert will live in my memory forever

Rosie was so personal and skilled in doing her set. She had come into the city a little late- from Austin, Texas, and so it was late when she got started. It was so worth waiting for. She sang songs from early on in her career and new songs. Her set lasted about an hour and it was really interesting.
The only downside was the venue. Although the people are super nice, they have three acts playing in different rooms that are sound-proof, but not totally. There was not a lot of press announcing Rosie’s concert. It just seems disrespectful to have someone of that magnitude fly in, and the audience is strong, but few.
She’s outstanding as an act, and really amazing as a performer.
