Robert Plant
Band of Joy
Review by Mark Johnson
Here we find the master vocalist Robert Plant reinventing and singing some fun classic rock and folk. He has assembled a great band from his past along with some current pros, and they do an excellent job rediscovering all of these rock and folk classics. You can tell this band is having fun throughout the album. Plant brings life back to these classic, most likely personal favorites. If you are a fan of Plant’s solo work, last year’s Plant/Krauss Raising Sand, or even some of Led Zeppelin’s folksier albums you will enjoy the Band of Joy.
