I saw something about that on TV last week but they didn't play any clips. It sounds really interesting to me.

It's been out for a few weeks.
My problem with the album (being a Plant fan), is that there are some songs that feature only Alison Krauss on lead vocals. Sure, there are others that feature only Plant singing lead, but I bought the album because of Plant, so I'm fine with that.
Overall, it has some good tunes on it. Very laid back in mood, but some interesting stuff.

I was not familiar with Krauss until recently as she has been doing duets with some of my favorite singers (John Waite, Ann Wilson and now Plant). She does have a very strong voice.

I was very excited about this when I first heard. I love Alison Krauss' voice and thought it was a unique pairing for sure. Still haven't listened to it though...better take care of that!

I bought it last week.Most will probably think it's great, but the music is not my cup of tea.
On a good note,it is number 2 on Billboard on both the Hot 100 and on the country albums chart.
WAY TO GO !!!!!
