Did Anyone See This Coming?




Well here's something you don't see (or rather, hear) everyday. Robert Plant and Alison Krauss? Are you kidding me?

I actually heard some of their forthcoming album Raising Sand (release date October 23, 2007) on XM a few minutes ago. From the little I heard, Alison mainly sang harmony and played fiddle in a few mellow, zoned-out, slightly etherial tunes. Worth a listen.

What's next? Jimmy Page and Gretchen Wilson?

The universe has been subjected to Rod Stewart singing standards and Michael Bolton singing opera. Robert Plant and Alison Krauss sounds like a dream in that context.

Do you wonder who cooks up these things?
