ROBERT PLANT, ALISON KRAUSS Guest On BBC's 'Breakfast' Show; Video Available
October 31, 2007Legendary LED ZEPPELIN frontman Robert Plant and Americana-bluegrass great Alison Krauss were interviewed on BBC's "Breakfast" show this morning (Wednesday, October 31) about their collaboration on the recently released "Raising Sand" CD. Watch the nine-minute segment below.
Produced by T Bone Burnett, "Raising Sand" includes versions of the EVERLY BROTHERS' "Gone, Gone, Gone (Done Moved On)", TOM WAITS and KATHLEEN BRENNAN's "Trampled Rose" and "Please Read the Letter", first released on the 1998 PLANT/JIMMY PAGE album "Walking Into Clarksdale".
According to Billboard.com, Plant and Krauss first performed together in 2004 at a Leadbelly tribute at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, but it took several years before they found time to team up in the studio with Burnett in Nashville and Los Angeles.
Tennessean.com reported that Plant and Krauss taped an episode of "CMT Crossroads" two weeks ago at The Mill at Lebanon in Tennessee that will air at a later date.
