Robert Plant's "Music To Soothe Your Soul" Playlist Available Online
Robert rifles through his almost alphabetically filed record
collection to soothe your seasonal soul. Expect a few festive nuggets alongside
some Delta Blues. Tune in here.
Robert Plant and Alison Krauss recently released their first new
album in fourteen years, Raise The Roof, via Rounder Records.
Like its platinum-selling 2007
predecessor, Raising Sand - which won six Grammys, including Album and Record
of the Year - Raise The Roof delivers new takes on songs from legends and
unsung heroes of folk, blues, country and soul music.
Recorded at Nashville’s Sound Emporium Studios, sessions for
Raise The Roof began in late 2019 and wrapped just weeks before the world went
into lockdown. “One of my favorite parts of this is the songs and songwriters
that I had never heard of,” says Alison Krauss. “Working with Robert, and with
T Bone, is always a great education in music history.”
Raise The Roof includes deep cuts by Merle Haggard, Allen
Toussaint, The Everly Brothers, Anne Briggs, Geeshie Wiley, Bert Jansch,
Calexico and more. “It’s such a far cry from everything I’ve done before,” says
Robert Plant. “I love the whole kaleidoscope of music that I’ve explored, but
this is a place where you can think within the song, you can decide how to
bring home an emotion. It’s another blend that we’ve got, and long may we have
more of them.”
