  • Led Zeppelin's classic ''Kashmir'' performed by Toyah and Robert Fripp on the Thursday of Fairport's Cropredy Convention 2023. An powerful set from the duo on the night. Memorable performance.

    I was there. Robert Plant was standing right behind me, near the bar, nodding his approval. It was an incredible moment. Toyah, Robert, and band were magnificent.

    Who would have thought that the punk rocker Toyah has over 40 + years later matured like fine wine and now pulling off singing an iconic Led Zep song .
    Looking forward to seeing you Toyah next time that you play down here again in Kent .

      thats true robert was never a showman and acted like a session player even onstage. hes so good and just his playing makes up for what he doesnt do, which is move around and make faces. hes the guy in a lab coat. strickly business. he acts out when at home doing videos in the kitchen with toyah. lol

If I was a betting person, I'd bet not a one of those commenters could sing a note to save their lives or have the guts to get up on a stage and perform anything in front of a live audience, let alone one with Robert Plant in it. The best thing about all those comments is that Toya won't give a flying f*ck thru a rolling donut about any of them. I don't know her, never met her, don't know her musical history, but I can recognize another singer when I hear one. I wish her all the best.
