Robert Plant (Led Zeppelin) - Pictures At Eleven [Japanese Ed.] (1982)

Year: 25 June 1982 (CD Feb 25, 1986)
Label: Warner-Pioneer (Japan), 32XD-392
Style: Rock, Arena Rock
Country: West Bromwich, Staffordshire, England (20 August 1948)
Time: 42:13
Format: Flac Tracks 16/44,1 kHz
Size: 285 Mb

Pictures at Eleven is the debut solo studio album by the former Led Zeppelin singer Robert Plant. Genesis drummer Phil Collins played drums for five of the album's eight songs. Ex-Rainbow drummer Cozy Powell handled drums on "Slow Dancer" and "Like I've Never Been Gone." On the song "Fat Lip", guitarist Robbie Blunt played a Roland TR-808 drum machine. The title was an often-heard phrase in US television news that would follow a brief announcement of a story of interest to be shown later during a station's 11 PM news program. Pictures at Eleven is the only one of Plant's solo albums to appear on Led Zeppelin's record label Swan Song. By the time of Plant's next release, 1983's The Principle of Moments, Swan Song had ceased to function, and Plant had started his own label named Es Paranza.

The album was recorded between April 2019 and January 2025 in studios across the Cotswolds and the Welsh Borders.

To promote the album, Plant and Saving Grace will tour North America in Autumn 2025.
Saving Grace features ten tracks, primarily reinterpretations of material by artists such as Memphis Minnie, Moby Grape, Blind Willie Johnson, The Low Anthem, Martha Scanlan, Sarah Siskind, and Low. Its lead single, a cover of Low's "Everybody's Song", was released on 16 July 2025, the second single "Gospel Plough" on 14 August.

Robert Plant (ex Led Zeppelin) - Carry Fire (2017)

Year: 13 October 2017 (CD Oct 13, 2017)
Label: Nonesuch Records (Europe), 7559-79349-3
Style: Rock, Folk, Blues Rock
Country: West Bromwich, Staffordshire, England (20 August 1948)
Time: 49:05
Format: Flac Tracks 16/44,1 kHz
Size: 320 Mb

In recent years Robert Plant has been defined by a stylistic restlessness, but his 11th solo album doesn’t deviate wildly in tone from 2014’s Lullaby and ... the Ceaseless Roar. He’s backed once again by the Sensational Space Shifters, who artfully flesh out the rock and folk elements with splashes of bendir, oud and djembe. Lyrically Carry Fire sees Plant address bigger issues, whether the evils of colonialism on New World (for its diametrically opposed perspective, it’s a yin to Immigrant Song’s yang) or nationalism on Carving Up the World Again. Other highlights include the heavy blues and Chrissie Hynde duet on Ersel Hickey’s Bluebirds Over the Mountain, and the knowingly titled The May Queen.

If you’re a Robert Plant fan, you’re probably going to buy this album anyway. Plant, the lead singer and lyricist for the band Led Zeppelin, is a mainstay in the music industry and has built up enough industry cred that he can do whatever the hell he wants. And, at least for his newest solo album, Carry Fire, whatever the hell he wants seems to be a folkish, Americana sound.
This isn’t new ground for him: Plant has previously worked with bluegrass/Americana artist Alison Krauss, and his previous solo albums also had this same sound. This only goes to show how Plant’s made this folky Americana sound his own. Carry Fire is a very chill, very lovely album whose main flaw is that it has a hard time rising from good to great.

While the three albums he's released since that collaboration with Alison Krauss - 2010's Band of Joy, 2014's Lullaby ... and the Ceaseless Roar and the new Carry Fire - haven't topped it, the onetime Led Zeppelin singer has refused to settle into expectations, unlike so many of his contemporaries who cling to their classic-rock pasts like the past 40 years never happened.
Plant, too, is somewhat stuck in a place he's visited before, but at least the familiar-sounding Carry Fire journeys across the globe in search of those sounds. Once again, he surveys everything from American Appalachian music to Eastern rhythms and textures to populate his songs.
He also makes room for more traditional rock 'n' roll too, pushing against chugging electric guitars and rolling drums on "New World .. " and cooing declarations of love on the acoustic "Season's Song," which wouldn't be out of place on Zeppelin's unplugged third album.
