Led Zeppelin Nashville Style

What a band!
Darrell Scott (one of my favourite singer/songwriters) on bouzouki.
Byron House on bass...had to look him up, quite the resume, definitely someone I'll be listening to more of.
Buddy Miller too...Always a guarantee of good music happening when you see him in the line-up.

Thanks for calling out the band members. I didn't know who they were. Darrell Scott really blew my mind with that solo. He just pulled everyone into a mystical place. Even brought the old wails out of Robert!

Byron House (on the red P-Bass in the OP's YouTube clip) is a fantastic player... just perfect in the Band of Joy back in 2010-2011.

Plant always does superb Zeppelin arrangements on his solo tours. He's absolutely brought it each time I've seen him live... same with Austin City Limits. Plant's not afraid to divert from the original, especially with instrumentation. Love it!

Robert Plant - Robert Plant: Ramble On ft. Robert Plant, Patty Griffin, Buddy Miller


The bass player breaths new life into one of the best grooves in rock and Robert Plant is better than ever.

And by the way, how great is it that Byron House is playing an Eden 4x10 rig on this? No telling what other toys were in his signal chain hitting the mix in the video... but I totally dig that for mellow, melodic, 70s tunes, this guy is playing through a rig that many associate a more modern sound and would instantly think is the wrong rig for the gig.

Yes, those "modern" rigs have these things called KNOBS on them! :cool:

Robert Plant has had such a great post Zeppelin career and I for one am glad he resisted Page's urging to reform the band. As for the paucity of Page's output after Zeppelin, I'll never understand that one. It seems like Plant has two bands now: Band of Joy for the more traditional stuff and the Shape Shifters gang for more futuristic stuff. The latter band has Bill Fuller on bass, who also plays in a Krautrock-esque band with Geoff Barrow of Portishead fame called Beak. Not for everyone but they do interesting stuff and Fuller's a guy who you know can play really well but holds back, which I appreciate.
