Five artists Robert Plant hated
Jesus. What a bitter old man.
Stairway to heaven- classic Zepplin
How so?
Brutally honest about his own original vocals, having matured as an artist. Dislikes clones of Led Zepp. Coverdale Page was a pretty clear clone of Led Zepp, with Page being replaced. Dislikes old bands doing the same thing endlessly. Thinks once a key member of a band tragically dies, continuing to perform as that band is disrespectful.
Can't see what's bitter there.
Robert Plant was the weak link in led zep
He had an OK voice but that was it
He slagged off Sabbath suggesting they were copying led zeps sound which was ironic as the first led zep album was basically a steal from the delta blues gang
He talks about bands needing to knock it on the head at some point but that hasn't stopped him sounding like a washed up old rod Stewart in recent years
Can't believe that a non-event like this is worthy of a thread on the CCMB! I see the publication referred to is called "far out magazine" - enough said.
In reference to David Coverdale, Plant was once asked would he work with Jimmy Page again, he said yes but wasn't going to talk like Richard Burton.
To me - he was a man that was always looking for the next thing to work on. They did the 2012 gig to get over the live aid debacle when Phil Collins drummed for them. He has continuously pushed back against new Zeppelin work etc and some of his work with the shapeshifters was more than agreeable - in my opinion.
Wouldnt say he was bitter - just very self aware and very down to earth bloke. Met him in a pub once at the bar - chatted for a couple of minutes and then he went back to his mates - nice chap
I think his dealings with the press .....as Page and John Paul Jones never gave much away ...suggested he thought Led Zeppelin started rock music
Absolutely fantastic band but apart from his first two solo albums which were aided by great musicians, I don't think he's shown up
Let's not forget they ripped off half of their material from other bands. OK! loads do that today but back then there was no need.
Agree about plant being over rated. Bonham was the band for me.
He can be a bit opinionated, but he’s an entertaining listen imo.
