Unledded : Jimmy Page / Robert Plant - No Quarter CD
SKU
15-Fontana 526 562
Throughout the 80s and into the 90s, all Jimmy and Robert heard was "Is Led Zep reforming?"
When given the opportunity to perform for MTV's acoustic series "Unplugged", they decided to acknowledge their great 70s catalog but in an unexpected way. They brought in a orchestra, hurdy gurdy, mandolins, bodhran, and, most importantly, an ensemble of Egyptian musicians, in a brilliant move that strongly brought out the Arabic influences that were always in Page's compositions, but were hidden by the ROCK BAND presentation.
In it's own way, this is a brilliant and brilliantly unexpected reinterpretation of a hugely popular band's cannon, by the same musicians who created it in the first place; something that doesn't happen often.
