      I love this different version of “Black Dog” with Robert Plant’s band. It’s got a different groove that gives a breath of freshness to an old classic, while maintaining the integrity of the licks that Page invented. I’m nearing 70 years old, but I never tire of good music.

    It took me half way through the song to realize I like this edition, it´s somehow grittier, dirtier, more rough, those stops on the main riff. I don´t like it more than the original, but I really do like it. And Robert Plant now still sounds like Robert Plant then, and at that time almost 70 year of age... bloody brilliant. Maybe that´s the way Plant wanted the song to be in the beginning... or maybe the artists way of looking at things later on... who knows. It´s still awesome.

    Always pursuing a different approach to something that we all know - and making it better or elevating to a new dynamic. Robert Plant knows he's not young anymore. He gives it a different dynamic. The band is amazing, and the man himself is truly iconic. All that's left - is the purity of the music and the sound. It's how it touches your soul, thats what matters. Not his age. It's the soul that he brings to the life of the music and what it does to you spiritually as well as emotionally. Feel it's power over you as it wraps itself around you and your no longer in your body, but in the world of the music as you drift off silently into the world that Robert Plant paints for you.
    The music stops, if only it could keep going.
    There's always replay....

    • @joeyhuebner10
