I saw the Raising Sand concert last night at the Greek Theatre in L.A., and I was blown away. Just extraordinary. I'm a long-time fan of Robert Plant, both during and after Led Zeppelin. Not as knowledgeable about Allison Krauss, but the combination was otherworldly. I can see what T Bone means about the tones of music. Their voices share a mystical quality. If you can catch the tour, don't miss it.
I love the album and have 4th row seats in St. Louis, to see Robert mainly, of course.
great show about a great project - T-Bone is really the master at achieving the kind of sound known as "Americana" or, as he calls it, American music!
I agree with Brad, and everyone else. Great interview with these three and the interview with Robert from 2005 is also fantastic. Such good questions and I think Robert felt that as well. I love seeing Robert so real and honest about his thoughts. What's funny is that Robert described the same feeling with the strange sensations as T Bone described with Ringo's story of the Beatles in the studio... 'the musicians and god'. When it's good... it's really good. Congrats on another great interview Charlie. We know we can always count on you.
I agree with everyone else - what a great interview, and so much fun too. Charlie did a great job at bringing out an inereting conversation with depth and light-heartedness. And Robert come forth as a very centered and sane human being, something you don't always perceive from people with such a high profile. Fabulous interview.
Great interview! Along with her singing, Alison is also part of that "great band" that Robert mentioned. Her fiddle is never too far away,and she can make it "sing" as well as she can. A complete musician!
The key comment by Plant:' A GREAT WAY TO RETIRE."
I really enjoyed the interview charlie. I think it could have been advertized better though. I had to watch it online, but I would have liked to have seen it on TV. I really like Led Zepplin so this album was enjoyable for me. I had only heard Alison Krauss a couple of times prior to the release of the album, but I am becoming a big fan. I got the CD as soon as I heard about it, and it was a worthy perchase. Great job guys. I love you!

Alison Krauss is absolutley my favorite singer ever! I got the CD two days after it was released and I was fascinated. I had never really herad Robert Plant before, and I was totally blown away!!! This interview was put together reaaly well and it provided lots of information about the album that I thought was worth knowing. I love the CD!!! I love the interview!!!
As ever Charlie, you bring out the very best in your guests. I'm a huge fan of you and each of your guests. Another interview very well done.
Just wonderful! Charlie does such a terrific job of digging in and yet doesn't get in the way of the guests. So refreshing to enjoy and really almost feel a part of the conversation. Thank you.
warning - if you buy the cd off off amazon, watch the shipping price - somehow I paid 11.99 shipping for an 11.99 cd. Oh Mr Bezos!
What a great interview: intelligent, though-provoking, insightful and sensitive! Charlie knows to "listen" and thus interact. All the things that Larry King has no clue to do... I'd love to see Charlie interview Eric Clapton (Larry has botched that interview TWICE). Great interview - thanks for that!
Fantastic interview! The song that opened the interview was great - I loved it - I am buying the cd tonight for myself and looking for the other music they mentioned. Thank you very very much!
So when will we see your interview with Jimmy Page?
This is a wonderful dialog about music and the making of the album Raising Sand. I love watching the repeats of it on the digital PBS channels. The depth of the conversation is just incredible, and I can't wait for it to become available on this site. It's just wonderful.
