A number of good tracks which have a great blend of rock ,blues and country. Great easy listening cd which also has songs quite unique to both artitsts. Great collaboration of two artists famous in there own rights, must admit Alison Kraus wasnt very keen on beforehand but mixed with Robert Plant the mix seems to be quite striking at times.
Alison's voice is quite haunting in trampled rose where as Robert sings Polly come home in such a tender and heart felt voice, love it. Have been converted to listening to other work done by Alison after loving Let your loss be your lesson, cant stop singing when that comes on in the car. Very surprised by this cd as i honestly thought i wouldnt enjoy it, but it may not be to Plant fans taste but would certainlyy appeal to Kraus fans.
