Robert Plant

English rock lead-singer with Band of Joy and Led Zeppelin, before becoming a successful roots and world-music luminary from the late '80s onwards.

As a soloist, his key releases have included "Pictures At Eleven" (1982), "The Principle Of Moments" (1983 - it included the hit "Big Log"), "Now and Zen" (1988), "Mighty ReArranger" (2005) and 2017's "Carry Fire".

He has also co-ordinated several collaborations, not least with "The Honeydrippers" (with Jimmy Page and Jeff Beck), "No Quarter" (acoustic-roots reformation with Page) and "Raising Sand"/ "Raise the Roof" (Grammy-winning Americana with Alison Krauss).

He resurrected the name Band Of Joy for a roots-project in 2010.
