From Fame to Fleece: How Paul McCartney’s Bond with a Rejected Lamb Named Lucky Shaped His Music, His Spirit, and the Pastoral Soul of RamIt’s sometimes easy to forget Led Zeppelin are a fairly small part of Robert Plant’s 50+ year career. Because when the stage lights dim and the crowd hushes, it’s not just nostalgia that steps forward — it’s a man who’s never stopped evolving.

They share a quiet understanding that doesn’t require words, often describing their collaboration as effortless and organic. Plant has said that working with Krauss opened a new chapter in his life, helping him rediscover the power of restraint and space in music, while Krauss admires his courage to let go of control and follow feeling…What made Keith Richards say Mick Jagger had “blown his credibility”?
