Robert Plant & Diplo Set to Team Up

Diplo posted a picture to his instagram a couple days ago with the title "Collab coming soon." Wonder what that could mean? Plant, legendary guitarists for classic rock gods, Led Zeppelin, has avoided rejoining his previous bandmates because of his desire to go in a different direction, musically. Maybe EDM is the new genre on the horizon for Mr. Plant? Time will tell, and hopefully it tell us sooner than later.

Led Zeppelin - "Thank You" - Song of the Day - (5/2/14)

"Thank You" signalled a deeper involvement in songwriting by singer Robert Plant: it was the first Led Zeppelin song for which he wrote all the lyrics.

Plant wrote the song as a tribute to his then-wife Maureen. - WIkipedia

Heart's Big Band "Stairway to Heaven" cover - Song of the Day [12/5/2013]


We have all seen absolutely tragic covers of "Stairway to Heaven", more than we like to admit.  This one on the other hand is one of the most EPIC (and I hate using that word) of all time.  Played about a year ago by Nancy and Ann Wilson of Heart performed the song in front of the three remaining members of the original creators of the legendary tune at the Kennedy Center Honors ceremony on Dec. 2, it made Robert Plant cry tears of joy.   Watch this to understand why...
