    Not only the master vocalist of rock & roll, but people often miss the fact that the entire band was a "who's who" of legendary musicians. Jeff Beck, Brian Setzer, Jimmy Page, Nile Rodgers, Dave Weckl... and on, and on.

    Robert Plants tribute to the roots of Rock N Roll to which he was obviously a great student of, in particular, borrowing from James Brown, for whom a Led Zep tune was dedicated to.

    The Rob Squad just reacted to Sea of Love. I told them they have to react to this one! They are a great young couple. They bring music to younger people who maybe wouldn't have listened. I love this song!
