I saw Robert Plant on this tour, and he was outstanding - I never understood "charisma" until then

[@ryanr5319]

Rob's solo work goes deep and is amazing. You could do all of his albums really. lol Thank you for reaction!

[@coreydean6540]

"29 Palms" is also a great Plant song.

[@lancerx1759]

Always "In the Mood" for a Robert Plant melody he never disappoints

[@Anonymousones1]

Great tune 🎉

[@margaretgerhold5922]

His charisma shines through even without optics. Mr. Plant is amazing!

ROBERT PLANT. SEA OF LOVE.

the band call it The Honeydrippers. Robert Plant was the singer, Jimmy Page play the guitar.

Don't worry I have felt the same since I was 14. Now 65. Robert's voice gives me chills till this day. 😊

[@Rgvjr]

I’m 59 years old and have been listening to Led Zeppelin and robert plant since I was 8 ….

[@helenespaulding7562]

I suggested this too. One of my favorites of his solo career. There is so much symbolism in the video. 1) the white feather that fell…..the feather was Roberts symbol while in Zeppelin. The fact that it was falling…he was putting Zeppelin behind him. 2) the school blackboard. After the death of his son, Robert almost left the band and became a teacher but was talked out of it by Bonzo, (Bonham) his best friend. Robert has said that he deals with tragedy by keeping moving. As he sings when he turns away from the blackboard (a different path he could have taken). “There is no turning back, on the run” It would be 30 years before Robert returned to live where he grew up and had his family. 3) The pool where he was swimming with the windows and someone knocking on them….He had lived his life while in Zeppelin in a “fishbowl” with little privacy. And by making the choice to continue his career, he was accepting that that would still be a part of it. This video was a darling of MTV and Plant was a frequent guest on that platform for interviews and to be a “guest VJ”. Those are just some I have noticed. I’m sure there were many others. I would love to know what picture he was tearing up. If it was a picture of Zeppelin, that would sure fit I believe they filmed this in Death Valley. And yes, if you travel in the desert and it’s 110 degrees or more, you’d best carry extra water for yourself….and your car.

Great Comment !!!!

"There's no turning back on the run"... The Big Log, like a trucker logging the miles...

[@rabshand5210]

Now you've found Robert Plant's solo career, try other songs like Tall Cool One or White, Clean & Neat, Calling To You. Song styles still as varied as any he did with Zeppelin. Great reaction as usual

[@yozaseig3870]

Beautiful song. The courage after all his tragedies to keep going was so commendable. Thank God he carried on and gave us so many more great songs.

[@zigman63]

Every phone I've had in past 10 or more years still has BIG LOG on my playlist.

[@helenespaulding7562]

The guitarist was Robbie Blunt, session guitarist who also would play with Tom Petty. Blunt would be in Roberts band for several years. Phil Collins (of Genesis) was on drums. Collins was on Plants first two albums and toured with him on his first solo tour. Robert, in his solo career, always surrounded himself with top-notch musicians, as you might expect.

[@suzanneanderson6921]

The guitar in this song gives me chills. It is beautiful ❤️

[@anthonypowell6234]

This is my favorite wanderlust song of all time. Let's hit the road!

[@AngeloMarcheschi-vj9em]

This is my favorite solo song of his.

[@uncletom618]

Check out the songs Robert did called “Burning Down One Side “, and “In The Mood”, big hits on Detroit’s FM radio. Shout out to the defunct WWWW ((:aka W4:)), WABX, and WRIF ((:The HOME of Rock and Roll:)), back when FM Radio was album oriented and worth one’s time and ears!

[@JohnLedger-g4i]

Robert had a great album ( s ) with country singer Alison Krauss . Definitely worth a listen. I think you’d both enjoy it. Totally different from anything else you associate with him

[@suzanneanderson6921]

This is true!

[@baskervillebee6097]

They are touring again summer 2024.

[@williamhudson3366]

Allison Krauss is a Blue Grass Singer

[@gary2kr1]

Wait til you hear him sing Ship of fools 🔥

[@AngeloMarcheschi-vj9em]

I'm 59 and I've seen him 27 times since the end of Zeppelin. He's my favorite artist. Believe me next time he's in Chicago I'll be there frt. Row

[@helenespaulding7562]

Another wonderful song from his solo career is Ship of Fools. Also another very cool official video.

[@tonyhomant244]

This, and In The Mood, are my favorites from him.

[@SG-js2qn]

The guitarist is Robbie Blunt. It appears the title came from an actual log they were wrestling with during the writing of this song. "'Big Log' was written in the middle of winter. We'd run out of fuel for the fire. We found the remains of an old tree lying outside, which was about 15 feet long, but had nothing to cut it with. So we put one end in the fire and slowly burnt it." As for the trope of the overheating car, I did actually experience that once as a child, riding with my mother across the desert on a hot day with the AC on. The pressure blew the radiator hose.

[@silvanorossi6416]

Music to my ears ❤

Robert Plant ~ Sea Of Love, In The Mood, Heaven Knows, Little By Little, Tall Cool One, Ship Of Fools, 29 Palms....!!!

Awesome reaction! You guys are the best!

[@TheZepp44]

Rob Plant lives about five miles from me, he has been known to visit the local pub and get up and sing, I met him one day in my local Co Op supermarket, I was checking out the Classic Rock magazine, and there was a piece in there on his new album Band of Joy, we started chatting and he said to me Look at this, or words to that effect 😂 he then said he's eaten all our food, drank all our beer and partied with us all week and he's slated our album, there was then a few more choice words, he heard about a lad with a brain tumour in town and set up a small concert for him, Fantastic Bloke not up his own arse like a lot of them. As with the band his solo work is Brillaint and varied always reinventing himself with different music paths. 🤘

[@_blueskies]

This was the very first video I ever watched on MTV. I remember being mesmerized by the music. It's still as hauntingly beautiful now as it was back then. Wow, thanks for the memory.

[@willfromyadkinville]

[@PeterEwing-ft2zm]

One of my all time favourite tracks from Robert Plant. Love the bluesy guitar. Try listening to 29 Palms...

[@baskervillebee6097]

In the old days you bought a square canvas bag of water to carry on the grill of the car across the desert. That way you could add fresh water to the radiator. I guess modern cooling fluid is better unless the hose breaks.

Robert had some fantastic solo albums. ❤

[@kevinharalson4538]

Slow Dancer caught my attention most on this first album. Heavy Rock!

[@jimcuozzo9190]

Good song thx for sharing your thoughts!

[@tomm7305]

FYI: Jimmy Page and Robert plant teamed up in 1998 and made a new album, "Walking Into Clarksdale." Something to eventually get around to. Robert also teamed up with Alison Kraus, a few years back, for "Raising Sand." Lots of good Robert Plant material since his time with Led Zepplelin. "Fate of Nations" is one of my favorite post-Zeppelin projects.

[@sergebrunet4218]

Back in 1983 i saw Robert Plant at the Forum of Montreal ! That was his first solo tour ! and only last year i discovered the show i saw is on KZbin ! Yes ! the same show in Montreal ! So it s great i can watch the night i was there 41 years ago ! But more surprising is that i also learned who was the drummer ! I can t believe all those years, i never knew who was the drummer ! Well , you need to watch it and learn by yourself ! lol ! 😎

[@erwinamesz7642]

Thank you friends for this magnificent reaction ❤

[@Anonymousones1]

Best music reaction channel😊

[@uncletom618]

Robert didn’t have the confidence to create or perform after the loss of John Bonham. He credits Phil Collins with giving him the encouragement the get back on the horse, and just to do what you do. Phil plays drums on that album called Pictures At Eleven.

[@Alberto_1965_BR]

And he gave encouragement to Rush (specially Lee and Lifeson) perform and record again after the death of Peart’s daughter and wife. Rush almost ended in 1997

[@SincityRocker60]

Try " Burning down one side" harder licks, rock on Plant!

[@jonathansmith3742]

I saw the tour for this album in Hartford. Messin with the Mekon is killer

[@roadkill7314]

I've always been partial to these hypnotic type songs. This is a great example of that style. As you said, great driving song!

[@48mastadon]

If I recall, the guitarist is Robbie Blunt. He's an extraordinary player with, what was at the time, a very unique guitar tone that all of us players quickly copied on our Fender Strats.

[@malcshone4409]

“ 29 Palms “, with video. You’ll love it!

[@joeltwinx3805]

Robbie Blunt on guitar, so beautiful. This song is nostalgia.

[@dalemcmillan7231]

Great Solo Robert Plant. ❤

[@ToddSauve]

I've always loved this song and the guitar work. Straightforward slow to mid tempo blues-rock. The best of electric Stratocaster guitar, with a definite Spanish guitar accent thrown in. Very tasty! 🎸😎😉💖

I saw him on the Now and Zen tour with Steve Winwood in a 2500 seat theater, it was amazing, both guys killed it. You should do Low Spark of High-Heeled Boys by Traffic (Winwood).

[@MichaelKelly-eg6jo]

So much 80's Robert Plant to choose from. Don't forget to look for The Honey Drippers.

[@clivegrant4225]

Try his other big solo hit Heaven Knows. Another gem.

[@kirstenstewart5758]

Robert is magnificent whether fronting Zeppelin or solo. I personally prefer the LZ sound but his voice crooning over beautiful guitar work is pretty amazing ❤

[@spidernose]

The car is a 1955 Chevrolet. I want one too!

[@dougwill8850]

I'm not for sure, but I believe the guitar is most likely a Fender Telecaster. Great reaction as usual.

[@JohnDavis-mu9je]

The stringed instrument sounded like a banjo.

[@michaelatkinson8291]

Robert's solo stuff, particularly on this album was a departure from Zeppelin's guitar riff driven sound. That said, there's plenty of his solo stuff with echos of Led Zep. Try listening to 'Slow Dancer' or 'Calling to You'.

[@imfletcher95124]

Yeah, Slow Dancer could easily be a Zeppelin song!

Robert said that after Zeppelin he didn't wanna play off their fame. You may however notice all the references to his Zeppelin days. Black dog, his feather logo, etc.

[@w.geoffreyspaulding6588]

Got any clue about the photograph he was tearing up?

[@gcats6059]

29 Palms

[@JAMESMOORE-gq4vv]

I change the lyrics of this song to MY LOVE IS A LEAF ON THE FREEWAY.

[@lewismaddox4132]

This album is underappreciated. Pictures at Eleven is filled with songs that are very reminiscent of LZ. At the time it gave us hope that the sound wasn't lost forever. Robert carried on the tradition reasonably well but none matched the resonance that his first solo album produced, at least to me. I'm sure some, perhaps many would disagree.

[@priscilliayard6375]

Nice❤🇨🇼🙏🇳🇱

[@EdA1]

Quite different than 10 years earlier at Madison Square Garden right? But cool to see how he evolved!

[@thepartydowner]

the cars overheat cause a lot were muscle cars. I had a Hornet V8 1970 that had a big warning sign on the dashboard to not exceed 60/mi/hr and the radiators were just too ratty to do the job and they overheat quickly esp in 35-40 deg. heat. In those days the coolant liquid wasn't around.
