    WIND BACK WEDNESDAY TALKS LED ZEPPELIN WITH ROBERT PLANT

    Robert Plant, on tour in Australia at the moment – Blues Fest this weekend, Sydney last week (READ MY REVIEW OF THAT SHOW HERE) - is only doing a handful of Led Zeppelin songs in his set. And as that review suggests, there’s nothing wrong with that, no matter how many dadjeans-wearing demands are made at the shows. It’s not always been the case, though it’s fair to say Plant has a lot more on his plate than rehashing his glory days. His complicated relationship with that par

    ROBERT PLANT LIVE IN SYDNEY: REVIEW

    ROBERT PLANT & THE SENSATIONAL SPACE SHIFTERS State Theatre, March 23 I’ll preface this by saying they were genuinely exciting moments: pleasures buried deep in our collective consciousness; visceral charges still capable of stirring aged loins and limbs; damn fine songs of ye blues and rock and eternal youth.

    WIND BACK WEDNESDAY AND THE THIRD COMING OF LED ZEPPELIN part 2

In the second part of the interview, they reveal just what goes on backstage, get short with one question, and happily admit to not really knowing what is coming next on stage some times. There were thoughts of more from the duo. Thoughts later of Led Zeppelin touring again. It wasn’t to be:

    WIND BACK WEDNESDAY AND THE THIRD COMING OF LED ZEPPELIN part 1

    In 1998, Robert Plant and Jimmy Page put aside Arabic strings, some enmities, and John Paul Jones again, for what was a rock’n’roll tour of spare but still historic proportions, but definitely NOT Led Zeppelin, ok? In a two-part Wind Back Wednesday, P&P talk freely and amusingly from the whitest corner of Kansas City, Mo. As an aside, I broke the ice with a coolly indifferent Page, while waiting for his partner, when I confessed my teenage aversion to Led Zeppelin had been cr
