new project is ooooold project, it seems!

 

[snaredrum]

and i'm sorry, but as much as i LOVE percy, it just ain't quite there, and despite what he says, he's been to this area of music MAAAAAANY times before.

still love him, but this? meh.

 

[Feeling Supersonic]

I don't like it! Just not my cup of tea. It doesn't mean I think it's bad quality etc... just not my bag!

 

[jeff_farkas]

Sounds interesting. I'll give it a listen for sure.

 

[GammyBird]

I'll have a listen...I love his voice.

 

[Ed B]

I have no interest in this album. Sorry Robert.

 

[R8R6Ben]

I think it's great... Plant's singing is good and Buddy Miller's guitar playing is excelent

 

[planks]

This is gonna be great. Very strong songs, tasty guitar work from Buddy Miller, and the sound on the album just so thick and with a "dark" quality to it. It seems the first single has landed on da tube

[Tozatron]

I loved Raising Sand. I wish he'd do that stuff again.

 

[Ledheadforlife]

Far and away my favorite singer of all time, but this stuff does nothing for me...at all. Wish it did, but if it makes him happy, more power to him.

 

[snaredrum]

by the way, i watched a composite vid of "nobody's fault but mine" from the 02 arena show, and Percy's voice was the weak link, sadly.

I have to say though, in some ways this is the final nail in the "i hope they get back together" coffin.

roll on JP's solo project!

 

[Dino Velvet]

I didn't much care for the new one. I guess I was expecting something very different.

 

[itchybro]

So... Go out on a limb with me here...

Are all you old school fans aware that this was the guy Page wanted originally to be his vocalist? I think it's obvious that this was the "character" of vocal he was after.

Now.......

That being said.... There's this other guy.... Page was even "introduced" to him. They spent some time together playing even.....

I think this is the guy Page should call up to "renew an old project".

Listen closely....

Maybe it's not overly commercial, but I love Plant's voice and Buddy Miller's guitar (and intuitivness). I'm a fan of both. Plant's voice is amazing and Buddy Miller is killer.

Percy needs to stop goofing around and get Zeppelin back together.
