I finally got to see Robert Plant and Alison Krauss last night at the Wamu Theatre in Madison Square Garden. They sounded fabulous. I am a big Led Zeppelin fan and even though this is a totally different style for Robert Plant it seemed very natural after listening to him with Alison Krauss. His voice still sounds great. I never really heard Alison Krauss before this tour with Robert Plant except when she sang on the "O' Brother Where Art Thou" movie soundtrack. She also plays the violin which really explains her vocal style which is very captivating. Her voice mimics the violin and with the rest of the band and Robert Plant the music is very entrancing and relaxing. They covered some Zeppelin songs like Blackdog and slowed it down to a blue grass type of style.
This was my favorite song they performed:



Check out the rest of their songs from their album, "Raising Sand."
