Robert Plant - Band of Joy

I am not a huge Plant fan. But the album with Alison Krauss was good, the forthcoming Band of Koy lp features the talents of Buddy Miller among others and so promises to be a good release.

Here is the lead track:

Buddy and Julie Miller - Written In Chalk

Buddy and Julie Miller have released what is I think their third album.




Most will be familiar with Buddy Miller great atmospheric and rootsy guitar playing on albums from a wide range of artists Frank Black, Patty Griffin, Emmylou Harris, Lucinda Williams and many many more. Similarly Julie Miller has worked on a huge body of tremendous work as a vocalist and songwriter (Enmmylou gad a great version of her All my Tears).

The new album is absolutely superb and features an excellent supporting cast including Robert Plant, Emmylou Harris and in particular Patti Griffin.
